Album US 1966 on Harmony label
Jazz, Folk, World and (Big Band, Polka)
Black label version - Made in U.S.A, mentioned at New Record Releases in Billboard 27. Aug. 1966 page 63. The top side of front cover incorrectly states "Electronically Re-Channeled For Stereo", since the album is mastered in genuine stereo (or rather binaural), which is quickly established with headphones; all tracks have a sharp division between the left and right channel, sometimes with the entire band in the right channel and only an accordion in the left (or vice versa) or with several instruments on the left and bass and drums on the right. The tracks are bridged by canned audience to create the sense of a live performance; this canned audience is taken from a vinyl source, which also becomes immediately clear with headphones, as they have static and audible rumble. "Clarinet Polka" has no credits on the labels. but according to Polskie Radio Program I, the music was created in Austria by a composer named A. Hupfat. Other sources claim that the song was written under the name "Dziadunio Polka" by the Polish composer Karol Namysłowski [source]. "Tinker Polka" has no credits on the labels either, but is a traditional. "Barbara Polka" also remains uncredited, but should be credited to Ferry Kovařík. The deadwax contains three hand etched dots in a triangle shape; at the bottom left corner of back cover a small 7 is printed. Both details may refer to the pressing plant which could not be established at date of submission.
