Who Stole the Kishka?

If you like Who Stole the Kishka, you'll love Obama Baby!

tkon, if you ask Obama what a kishka is, he'll look at you with a blank expresion. Bye the way, do you know what"kishka" is??? It's a very deliscious blood sausage. I haven't enjoyed it in years. =Stefan=

What is never mentioned was that itwas NOT Yankovic who wrote the Keeshka, it was the MATYS BROTHERS FROM CHESTER, PA. I SHOULD KNOW, I WAS MARRIED TO GENE.THEY WERE ON AMERICAN BANDSTAND AUG28,1957. THEIR HIT SONGS WERE THE KEESHKA AND THE RUMMY POLKA AMONGST OTHERS.They also made records and 8 track tapes. --look it up on Wikipedia!!!!!! THE CREDIT SHOULD BE GIVEN WHERE IT IS DUE! PEARL(MATYS) ALVAREZ

Thanks for the tip about the Matys Brothers, I just listened to their great version on YouTube. Regarding Wikipedia, that resource identifies Walter Dana (writer) and Walter Solek (composer) as being the originators of the tune. I see (from the same resource) that the accordion playing Matys brother was also a Walter...just coincidence? You are also mentioned there, Pearl! Thanks for sharing.

Hey! When will we see new video? I love this band!!!

Hey, that's awesome! I wish I hadn't missed that performance, I've been really lame lately. Hopefully you guys will keep that one in the repertoire.

We'll be performing it again on April 7th 2007 at the opening of Saturday Market. The tune I'm really looking forward to is our bluegrass version of U2's "I still haven't found what I'm looking for." (Sharon finally plays her banjo with AA!)

Hooray for AA! Pops, you are too cool!

Now I know why Mercedes like Mutantes...

I never trusted that Yasha!
Yours truly,
 The Kishka Kop
