In 1986, it seemed only fitting that Yankovic won the first ever polka Grammy Award on Cleveland International Records(produced by Joey  Miskulin and the mysterious Dragutin Razum)for it was he who had for so long bridged the ethnic gap between polka and the popular music forms which the Grammys represent.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eIt is Frank Yankovic who perfectly blends the ethnic roots of polka music with popular influences, presenting a package that all of America can enjoy. Songs Of the Polka King collects songs and artists fitting for the King. Weird Al Yankovic duets with Frank on Who Stole the Keeshka while Drew Carey duets with Frank on the Too Fat Polka and Joey Miskulin, Yankovic's protege, does the moving, award-winning 'For Old Time's Sake Waltz'. Even now, as polka in America has evolved into many different regional, ethnic, and generational variants, it is Yankovic who remains the undisputed champion. And he did it all still with the same warm, regal smile which benefits the people's king that he is and forever will be. This is an album all ages will enjoy singing and dancing to.\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJust Because\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWho Stole The Kishka\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHoop-Dee-Doo\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlue Skirt Waltz\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eToo Fat Polka\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCleveland The Polka Town\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Beer Barrel Polka\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Heaven There Is No Beer\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Bar Room Polka\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eZivili Brace', Zivili Sestra\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor Old Times Sake\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Night Frank Yankovic Came To Town\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Pennyslvania Polka\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHey Little Sweetheart\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy Melody Of Love\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMilwaukee Polka\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat Silver-Haired Daddy Of Mine\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI Wanna Call You Sweetheart\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBaby Doll Polka\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlay, Play Your Accordion\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Yankovic Medley\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWho Stole The Kishka (W\/ Kinky Friedman)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55129059459457,"sku":"1350493","price":17.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/61Ke9-wVdkL._SL1500.jpg?v=1766809900","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/1350493","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
