(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a German compilation of 25 American polka recordings, featuring the most diverse variety of polka styles I have ever heard on a single album. Ranging from traditional to punk to Tex-Mex, they're all here and all musically delightful. You can dance or just listen in awe, but you'll marvel at the diversity of sounds and textures featured on these selections. I highly recommend this album to enlightened music lovers, whether or not you're a polka fan. This music is universal."
