Music reviews of World's Greatest Polkas
Music Review: Drives the Old Gals WILD
Rating: 4 Stars
Last week, my wife slapped me with those nine words you pray your spouse will never say:
"My mother's coming to stay with us this weekend."
I was told to make the mom-in-law feel 'comfortable' during her stay with us -- but how should I know what the over-50 crowd is into these days? Short of getting a haircut and staying offa her lawn, I wasn't quite sure what to do for the old girl. Luckily, Amazon was there for me, like a trusty set of choppers soaking on the bedside table.
I got tabbed to pick my mother-in-law up from the airport, and figured some nice soothing music from her generation would be just the ticket. Never mind that I was a couple of decades off on 'her generation', or that she says she's into current pop -- all old people like Lawrence Welk, right?
I thought she might be hard of hearing by now, so I turned the volume way up on the polkas. I don't know what passed for dancing back in the old days, but she sure jerked and gyrated around in the passenger seat, all the way home. If I hadn't known any better, it almost looked as if she was screaming and clawing at the window, trying to get out. Maybe that's what they called the 'Charleston'.
I didn't get to hear any of the polkas myself -- I had earplugs in to dampen the noise -- but after her jitterbugging in the car, I told my mom-in-law that if she wanted, I'd take her for a long ride every day to hear some more of those tunes. She nearly collapsed just at the thought of it. I guess a little dancing really takes it out of the old folks.
