I'm 75 now but in 1959, when I was around 12, we bought a house in the Humboldt Park area of chicago. One day as I sat on the couch in front of the big window, I spotted a big van pulling in to the driveway of the house in front of ours. A big sign was painted on the sides of the truck, Li'l Wally Dance Band and out poured a bunch of guys that walked in to the house and behind them was a car with other guys that were with them. My sister and I were smart enough to know these were famous musicians. Little Wally lived across the street from our house!
What did the Prs did to the neighborhood is despicable.

WOW! What a treat to wake up this morning and hear the music that has been and continues to be a cherished part of my life. I consider L'il Wally to be the FATHER of modern Polish Polka Music here in the US who gave rise to all of the many other Polish Polka Bands and musicians who played HIS compositions at Polish Weddings and Celebrations throughout the country, I am proud to say that I was one of them and can't Thank You enough for preserving and posting these CLASSIC POLISH SONGS, BOG ZAPLAC!!
Thank you Michael for sharing these old time favorites! I'm teaching myself these Polish songs and laughing at myself at the same time! Such great Polish music. I saw Li'l Wally many years ago and he put on an awesome concert! Great, innocent fun!! Miss those good old days!
Is a very nice job I was raised with this music
My Father use to play this music back many years. Great to here!

LIL Wally and his band played at my sister's wedding. A great time.
Młode lata moje.
Mistrz spiewanie od urodzenia najlepszy
A beautiful job putting this video together, with precise perfection of words and album jacket for each song!! No excuses must sing-a-long!! Thank you!!! May Lil Wallys music live forever!!!!
I believe Don Lucki (1933-2003) played trumpet on several of these songs. Simple arrangements. Classic songs. Brought back memories. Great to see the lyrics as well
Pięknie dziękuję 😚
Oh my busia loved him. I miss her.
Man what memories! My dad would load up the big console record player with a stack of 33 1/3 lil Wally albums. He’d look at album covers smoke a cigar and sip some peva. This was in the 70’s I was just a kid then. It’s crazy that music can trigger memories. Thank you for posting.
Makes my proud to be Polish,

This is SO GREAT!!! Brings back memories...saves the trouble of lugging out the old stratched up vinyl! Thank you for uploading!
Good Job
Moja muza, wychowałem się na tej muzyce i taką gram👍
Ja też!
I still play at least one Little Wally song on my weekly Saturday Polka Review radio show.
Where does your show broadcast from. Would love to listen in.

Muzyka Lil Wally’ego zawsze będzie w naszych sercach. Pozdrowienia od Polaków z północnej Francji!
Thanks SO much for posting and including the lyrics!!!!!
They call me the streak
He pretty much wrote all the great polkas. He and Eddie Zima are Chicago style polkas period. without them, there would be no Chicago polkas
This LP was released in 1963.
Oh Michael Mack....how I love being able to hear these without getting out the stereo and LPs! What a gift...thank you for posting. I hope the next batch will have Pod Krakowem, my Mom and Dad's favorite when they began dating!
Mania and Stash who owned the Lucky Stop were my mother's God parents.
How cool is THAT?
👍
Polska tego nie zna.
Zna,zna.
I live in Northern Wisconsin & my Mom had several of Lil Wally's albums & she would tell me to put Lil Wally on & Her & Dad would dance & my Sisters & I learnt to dance too. Just Beautiful Music.
W domu rodzinnym były płyty Małego Wladzia. Oj hulało się aż miło 😂
