Oh the memories... Ampol Aires, Marion Lush, The New Soundz, Lenny Gomulka & Chicago Push, Take 5 & Eddie B & The Versatones... Seen these greats many times at St. Stan's B & M carnival. My how times have changed, and not for the better.
The Sounds, The Brass Connection, Scrubby and the Dynatones, Rhythm and Brass, TKO, The Magitones, The Boys from Baltimore, Stas Golonka, Happie Louie and Brass Works (sometimes), too many to mention!...the list is unending.
I live in Northern WI.,I am 62yo. & We(my family literally grew up with Polka music)had the Polish Wedding Dances I think Every weekend during summer. We had a local band but would occasionally have bands from MN. like Bill Czerniak & Polka Soul & Jolly Jokers or further away from Steven's Point,WI.. We use to listen on our Grundig Record player to Eddie Zima Band,Casey Siewierski,Wanda & Stephanie,Mike Ryba Band,Bill Czerniak Band,& Many others. To me this BEAUTIFUL MUSIC IS A BLESSING. MAY GOD BLESS ALL.🪗🎷🎺🎸🎻🥁🎤🎹🎼🎵🎶
The fact that whomever is "holding" the camera and cannot hold it steady, is unfortunately NAUSEATING, and absolutely ruins the beauty and talent of Marion Lush...unbelievable level of disrespect....SHAME ON YOU!
I don't see that the wobbley camera took ANYTHING at all away from the band. The entertainment value of a band & their music is more in HEARING & LISTENING anyway, not in seeing. The camera person appears to be enjoying the music so much that they cannot hold still... or hold it still. I am damned grateful & glad it got posted on RUclips. If one is videotaping polka music for a memory cuz they enjoy it, they might have difficulty sitting or standing still... so what if they then share it on RUclips... NO SHAME there... & no harm to the GREAT Ed Blazonczyk & his band, nor Marion Lush & his band. If one is videotaping professionally, they would likely hold still or set up a tripod, I'm sure. Dancing & spinning round & round to polka could make one nauseated... or even drinking too much... or constantly looking at this video, but... it has NOTHING to do with the GREAT MUSIC...so try NOT to look at the video, but fleetingly... so you can enjoy the band's music. True, MANY are deceased... perhaps the person who taped it as well.
@@annraczok670 Okay, Ann..fair enough, but if I told you my real last name and who my parents, cousins and family are, you would understand why I said what I did. (Hint-all members of "famous" Polka bands). Have a blessed day. :)
