Description

My friend Steve Popovich Jr of Cleveland International Records has recently reissued this classic collection of America’s Polka King Frankie Yankovic’s final recorded collaborations. These historical recordings arranged by Frank’s most renowned protegee Joey Miskulin capture many of his biggest hits in duets with a wide range of icons throughout the musical world that display Yankovic’s amazing influence. From Drew Carey (Too Fat Polka) to Chet Atkins (Blue Skirt Waltz) to Eddie Blazoncyk (My Melody of Love) to Little Joe (Just Because) and two versions of Who Stole the Kishka with Weird Al Yankovic and Kinky Friedman, this is an album that should be in every polka lover’s collection… Quite honestly, listening to Joey and Frank duet on “For Old Times Sake” brings back images of watching them on stage as a little kid and is a gentle reminder of why I perform this music today.

This reissue is also available on VINYL via Cleveland International Records
