I swear...I'm not lying.
I went to this Blues Jam tonight and it was the very first time I've heard Mustang Sally played as a Polka!
The beat that was being laid down and the guitars.......
pure Eddy Brudzinski and The Polka Dots.
I'm still smiling.

You forgot about the remorse that often follows GAS. "PGAS" Post Gear Aquisition Syndrome".

Is this post in the right place?
Maybe you're referring to the Start that I STILL did not get.
Very cryptic.
BTW Kevin...I DON'T Think they were going for the polka thing.
Hahahahahahahahaha.
So - they were musical arrangemen geniuses and didn't even know it?
Yeah...geniuses...that's it.
But really, just try to imagine that UM-PA-PA polka beat put to Mustang Sally.
Laughing yet?
Yeah, I'm in the right place FenderBoy. You have to read Williams tag line in the post above mine. Uh, that's why it's "quoted". OK OK, it's a bit of a stretch.

They knew you were coming. Didja take the Polka Dot Strat? :spin
OF COURSE I took the Polka Dot Strat, fezz.
Whatcha think? I'm fickle or somethin'?
Golly! Do you think THAT inspired them?
It is a cool guitar, but it does remind me of boxer shorts for some reason.

You been watchin' too many cartoons, T-B.
Actually a polka beat is a two-beat. Almost a march. More like Um-pa Um - pa. Um-pa-pa would be a waltz.
Then again ther are several polka styles. German is more marchlike. Slovenian style flows more. Sometimes with an eighth note, eighth note, quarter note feel. Polish is faster with the drummer thundering away at 16th notes on the snare.
So shunka...have we outed yet another Polock?
Dzien dobrie!
I played in Slovenian style bands for ten years. Good bucks but BO-O-O-RING. Naz Drava.
