5.0 out of 5 stars Almost like being there!, March 2, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Kick-Ass Polkas (Audio CD)

Don't worry if you think you won't like polka. Those who have been there know that seeing Brave Combo live at every opportunity is a happy addiction. An instant pick-me-up that gets your dancing feet moving and your endorphins flowing into a polka-loving, just-like-flying physical high. If it's been a while since your last Brave Combo fix, put this CD on, turn up the volume, and you're there! This CD includes some of the band's best live numbers, done flawlessly as always. It's guaranteed to get your blood moving. In short, this album kicks ...!

You want the best polka cd you can buy? Buy this!! You won't be dissapointed!

I grew up in a real polka town, and went to Polish halls dancing every weekend (did a mean hop and still can too!) I know polkas!

If I ever get the chance to see these guys perform I am SO there!

1. What is the text about? ...

2. What is good about it? The melodies are infectious and the lyrics often amusing.
3. What is not so good about it? Polkas are surprisingly aggressive to the ears.
4. Who might like it? Polka lovers, but also those new wavers/"alternites" who like stray a little far afield.
5. Personal bias: Have seen Brave Combo a dozen times; play the accordion.
