My guess (and it's only a guess) would be

no

[David Elliott]

To the best of my knowledge Chet was never on the Lawrence Welk show, but then I never saw every Welk show, so I'm not certain of that.

Mike,
Does that mean you have an album with Chet on it playing 'polka' music?

Come to think of it, I think I DID hear Chet play the "Beer Barrel Polka" once!

[Norm]

He played "Guitar Polka", "Nambuospirit Polka", "Tennessee Polka", "Beer Barrel Polka" and of course, "Polka Dots and Moonbeams" but as near as I can see there was no polka album nor were all of the songs listed on one album. Mike's gran must have a one of a kind album

[Mike Nye]

It was JOKE ! ! !

Polka Mania was ficticious Weird Al Yankovic album from the movie UHF . . .

It happened to be playing on a TV at BestBuy the other day, which is WHY I remembered it . . .

[Norm]

I thought it might be a joke but I just wanted to make sure your gran didn't have one of them bootleg records...
