Ooh, I like this idea. It would certainly fit in with all the animated videos on the DualDisc.
Imagine, a polka medley video animated by none other than Matt Groening.

... in my dreams.

FWIW, Bananarama had 3 top ten hits back in the 80s.
This means something. This is important.

The Paul McCartney quote is real. Or at least the same quote was supplied to us from Al's management for use in the Weird Al Star Fund application. Actually, most of the stuff in the first two paragraphs was too.

Wow, thank you music89! I agree that "Polkarama" is a pretty weak title, but then, I thought the same about "Polka Power!" too.

Interesting that they have Permanent Record on the back despite it being out of print.

Well, all of this info is starting to lead to the point where...

IT MUST BE TRUE! Image

By the way, they DO still have Permanant Record on iTunes (not that it means anything).

Probably more a discography than anything else

The key word I look for in a polka's title is "POLKA". I don't care about the other words surrounding it :P
You have quickly thought up such matchless phrase?

Thanks for those scans, music89!

I kinda like "Polkarama".
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!

Yes, since Seth's name was listed alongside the other known animators working on videos. Anyway, it more or less confirms that "Weasel Stomping Day" is legit.

Cool flier!
