From its title (From Pana To Louisiana slips a sly tongue-in-cheek reference to Two Time Polka’s origins, Patrick St., Cork) to its sheer joie de vivre, this is a CD for the downhearted and the party animal alike.

To suggest that Two Time Polka have eclectic taste would be to render their palates a disservice.

From the leisurely confidence of ‘J’ai Passe Devant Ta Porte’ to the measured knowing glances of Senan Quinlan’s original ‘Dust Bowl Blues’, Two Time Polka give it heaps, with washboards, accordions and fiddles thrown into the melting pot.
