Too Fat Polka sung by Frankie Yankovic. No relation to Weird Al, though I believe they were friends. #vintage #accordion #1940s #brokenrecords #realsongfrom #weirdal #demure #mindful #bigdadenergy #polka #funny | Honest 2 Betsy

The Cherry Polka is the perfect way to celebrate National Accordion Awareness Month! This Frankie Yankovic classic has been recorded and enjoyed by polka bands for years. I included it on the album The Legacy in 2000. Played here on a Munda diatonic accordion, the octaves in the first section and the little chromatic motions in the second give it a fun lift, but sometimes it just makes ya smile to share a happy polka like this one! #alexmeixner #munda #NationalAccordionAwarenessMonth #accordion
