JOHNNY VADNAL WAS THE BEST!!! HE SOLD ONE OF HIS ITALO AMERICAN ACCORDIONS TO MY GRANDPA, WHO HAD TO TAKE OUT A LOAN FOR IT, TO GIVE TO MY FATHER, RONNIE DODICH WAS HE WAS 13 YRS OLD! MY DAD TRAVELED ALL OVER THE WORLD WITH THAT ACCORDION FOR OVER 60 YRS! AT 84 YRS OLD, HE'S STILL PLAYING THAT ACCORDION! WE WERE BLESSED AND CHERISH THAT ACCORDION!!
Wow .. can't believe this legend has been gone for almost 11 years now. All the great 'Cleveland Style Slovenian' Polka bands I enjoyed while growing up are gone now. RIP Johnny ...
My FAVORITE Polka Band, bar none. I talked with Johnny Vadnal several years ago--what a great gentleman! I grew up hearing these guys on TV...loved them and later, when I played keyboard in a polka band, I appreciated their musicianship and professionalism even more. God love you all--you sure made a lot of people happy with your sound.
forget speed metal, forget acid house, forget glitch house, forget punk disco because this is yodel polka at its best!! - bart plantenga, YODEL-AY-EE-OOOO: THE SECRET HISTORY OF YODELING AROUND THE WORLD
