Editor's note: I think Stanky and the Boys and other such polka bands prove one thing: that Polish guys just love to scream and get drunk. If you've ever lived with a Polish woman you know damn well why this is so. So, why does a people so hell-bent on being miserable sing such hearty songs? One word: KIELBASA!

I listened to the entire album....twice. Stanky rocks! This was a great find.
How can a guy named Stanky do anything NOT GOOD?!?!?
Funny, I actually already had this album from my grandparents, and it's indeed great. The band uses a lead violin player- quite odd for a polka band, and gives them a really nice and unique sound. The pounding bass piano too... just great. The song "Apples Peaches Pumpkin Pie" was a huge hit for them back in the 60s.
I have this record but my copy is in bad shape. Thanks for posting!
I just pulled out a copy of this record and my label is pink instead of blue. Multiple pressings. Fantastic.
