Joe Cvek And The Polka Massters Orchestra - In A Lighter Vein flac album

He was a major promoter of the polka genre. Tony featured classic Cleveland-Style polkas and waltzes by established performers, such as Johnny Vadnal, Johnny Pecon, Eddie Habat, Kenny Bass and Frank Yankovic, America’s Polka King, but he also encouraged young bands and introduced new songs. His shows included album debuts, opinion call-ins, on-location shows, interviews and contests and even recipes with Alice Kuhar and news from Slovenia with Duke Marsic. Tony introduced the new folk sound from Slovenia by groups like the Avsenik Quintet and the Lojze Slak Trio. Father Perkovich contacted him and set out to style his own version with music by accordionist Joe Cvek and the Polka Massters, and lyrics adapted by Mary Cvek. Father Perkovich celebrated his first Polka Mass in 1973 and, spurred by the warm reception, recorded it with Cvek and his orchestra.
