NO, this is not the Russian primordial ancestor of Perez Prado, but a straight-ahead Soviet polka, "CHA - CHA - CHA," (or in English, "HA! HA! HA!"). This is a big, jolly orchestra, playing "straight, with feeling," pumping out the good times in fine, spit-and-polish style, not to mention fine Western Electrical fidelity.  The flip side of this is also a lively polka, which title I can't quite make out, but looks like "TANZEN MOJA MILARA." Anyway, it's good! 


This original 1931 Green Label "Foreign Series" Columbia 20241-F is in lovely E condition.

These records come from my private collection, which I have been accumulating since 1967, and now am downsizing!  My highest priority in these eBay auctions is to give you the best possible idea of a record’s true condition and aesthetic value.  I always post at least four clear images, showing the record fore and aft, a close-up of the label, and the whole disc, warts and all.  If my purple prose won’t cut it, the pictures will!  Shipping is done with expert care. Your record will brave Media Mail in a stout corregated box, between four sheets of cardboard and a couple of “packers.”  I hope you are amused by these descriptions, and by the quality of service being offered.
