Sadly, it's so. As of 2009, "Best Polka Album" was dropped as a category. Damned injustice I say. Let's start a protest movement!! SAVE THE POLKA ALBUM!!! You can send your donations, cashier's checks only, made out to me and I'll get the ball rolling. Think of it as a stimulus package for polka lover's everywhere. Here's some categories they can do without. Best Classical Vocal Performance, Best Classical Performance, Operatic or Choral, Best Opera Recording, Best Chamber Music Performance, Best Classical Album, Best Classical Crossover Album. Seriously, what the hell is Best Classical Crossover Album? Freestyle rap of "Quanto un mortal puņ chiedere" from Verdi's "Alzira"? Best Historical Album? WTH is best "historical" album? Reissues? Pah.... |

Pah.... It depends which type of Polka Category as well, Chicago, "Cleveland Style", German, Polish, etc.etc. LOL... Years ago, my kids bought a "Super Polkas" Album by Yankovic. It's been passed around as the "green nylon socks" type gift at Christmas since. Too dam funny. |
