Wow, he plays in person on this record! As opposed to…?????????
Tell me his stare isn’t terrifying…and why is he the only one looking directly into the lens? So, so creepy…He was a great player though! AND he won a Grammy…bet you didn’t know you could do that for Best Polka Album…in fact, SHOULD anyone be able to win for a best polka album?! I’m still on the fence with that one…

Ha ha re the playing “in person”!
Altho not related to him, my friend Weird Al Yankovich has said he was given accordion lessons as a child because his parents thought “there should be at least one more accordion-playing Yankovic in the world.” Al also played on Frankie’s last polka LP before he and his accordion wings flew off into the sunset.
I love the undersized person at the piano.

Wow, so cool that Weird Al played on his last record! Haaha! The piano man! What weirds me out is that huge red and black thing in front of Frankie…at first I thought maybe it was a music stand but then, what’s that blue thing in front of it?! Amazing the choices people make about choosing a cover photo…

My vote is the red thing is a chair back and the thing on it is a drum case. But then again, why would an accordion player display a drum case? And if it’s a chair, I want the dining room set.
