What the heck happened to all their faces in that picture?

Excelente. Siempre con arreglos de diez...
This became THAT HAPPY FEELING by Bert Kaempfert!
That's music you can understand!!!!!!!❤❤😂😂😂
I really miss the times we went to the Bel Rae Ballroom and dance with my mom and dad. Tony's daughter and wife danced with us to. My dad went to school with him in Browerville, Minnesota. They stayed being the best of friends.
This is one of my absolute favorite laendlers, from the "old" Dorschner library, in the early fifties. I wish I had had the opportunity to play this number, but it was not in the book when I played, 1964-1973. It has since been rewritten.🙂
Al Grebnick is the best, never heard this one, thanks for sharing.
The Picture the guy holding the microphone was Louie Kaveney next to him the guy with the glasses was my Dad Bernie McGuire who played the accordion, Gil Borak played the tuba to his right is Bill Stangler who is probably the only one on the picture who is still living. The guy singing was Cal Brazier, I rode his school bus.
Beautiful music 😊 1:05
One of my favorite love your music
Love all especially the tubea
Dale Simons is my father!
Thank you
I played with him locally. Oh the story's!!
This is a good territory band at this point
Wow, this is a great mellow sounding polka. The melodies are phenomenal in their diversity, with such a nice closing on top of it all. Thank you Chris.
Another great one by the Jolly Lumberjacks. Thank you for this Chris Pikal!
Thank you @chrispikal6996, for this truly wonderful and delightful polka. I love the arrangement and beat, and two parts with the sax's playing! On my Dad's side, (Malanczuk's the actual last name spelling), they used to polka a lot at Russian Orthodox church parties, in the early 1940's - thru the early 1960's.
Chris, does Jerry's wife Ethel Dostal play keyboards? She's in band uniform in the tour bus picture.
Ausgezeichet!!!
My Dad played sax and clarinet on this album.
😀😍
Chris, is that you on drums?
The "Stairway To Heaven" of polkas
i really miss his music and his band.great man and music
Can a person ever get enough of Babe Wagner's great polka sound!
Almost as great as Whoopee John’s rendition of this awesome waltz!
great song
Memories of my home in Gretna, Nebraska.
You should post more videos of this band
We need more lively polka bands like this one!
Babe Wagner was playing beautiful danceable music when I was a kid in Minnesota. I'm delighted to continue to enjoy his music seventy years later!
Awesome
Thanks for sharing -- haven't heard of this outfit before. Where were they from, if you know?
👍👍👍
👍👍👍
Very good
Not familiar with this early version. Sounds like circa 1928-32?
OK, but I like his Decca 78 version, better.
Skipper Berg lived next door to my grandparents!!! So fun to hear them practice❤
I'm so glad I had the privilege to know this amazing musician. He was one talented person. His son Dale was in my graduating class. Good memories in Hutchinson, Minnesota!
Always nice to have more Eddie out there! Thanks!
Wunderbar!!! Das gefaelt mir sehr gut!!!!!
Hi. Just wondering if you have any more of these from the band Clover? My uncle John Gareis was in the band so this was neat to see on RUclips.
The man holding the microphone was John "Big Lou" Kaveney, to his left was my Dad Bernie McGuire who played accordion, behind Cliff were Bill Stangler, trumpet, and Gil Borak on Tuba, the picture was taken at Hardegger's near Lake Jefferson which burned down.
Bill Oehlke on drums. Who's playing bass?
Thanks for posting the fun video! Brings back good memories.
