| | Polka Therapy Band Polka Therapy CD Polka Therapy Band Discography of CDs
No one can sing or dance the polka without smiling. That's why "Polka Therapy" is a perfect, drug-free way to cope with the stress of modern-day life. The songs are funny and definitely different. For example, singers complain about their lost youth in the "Middle-Aged Hip-Hop Polka"--and it's not every day that you hear those two genres of music combined!The Polka Therapy Band is made up of Heather Stenner on piano, Cheri Thurston on accordion, Chris Sheafor on bass and guitar, and Andy Sheafor on drums. Various singers and other musicians also participated in the recording of songs on the CD.The songs were all created by Cheri Thurston and Heather Stenner. Cheri Thurston is the founder of Closet Accordion Players of America, an organization that encourages accordionists to come out of the closet and play proudly. Thurston is also the author (as Cheryl Miller Thurston)of many books for teachers, as well as magazine articles, plays and musical shows. In 1997, she created Moonlighting Teachers, a troupe of teachers, former teachers, counselors and others who sing and act their way through a comedy show that touches just about every facet of the world of education. The group has performed for dozens of state, regional and national educational conferences. Heather Stenner is a former public school music teacher who founded Enthusic, a company devoted to allowing anyone to “try on the hat of a musician and discover the joy of music without the pressure of performance.” She is a singer, piano player, and dancer, as well as a composer who has created the music for various CDs, books, and plays, including "Singuini—Noodling Around with Silly Songs" (a music book) and "A Hair from the Head of a Prince" (a full-length musical comedy ). She toured with Up with People for a year and now performs regularly with the group Moonlighting Teachers. She is also musical director for the group.

Polka Therapy CD music
 $12.99  
STOLAS is the 12th volume in John Zorn's BOOK OF ANGELS series of compositions, and it's a welcome and compelling idea that he decided to re-form his stellar Masada quintet for the occasion. In addition to the rhythm section of Joey Baron and Greg Cohen, trumpeter Dave Douglas, and pianist Uri Caine, Zorn enlisted tenor sax giant Joe Lovano to replace him on all but one cut where he adds his alto, making the group a sextet. Here klezmer, Yiddish folk music, bossa nova, and other Latin jazz all come together in a seamless meld of tunes that accent the symmetry of ensemble play as much as they do an extremely advanced sense of ensemble harmonics, rhythmic invention, and, of course, tautly arranged spaces for individual improvisation--check out the album's longest cut, "Tagriel," for evidence as Zorn's composition not only travels genres ...

| | Bob Marley Confrontation CD (1983) Bonus Track; Remastered
Polka Therapy CD music
$10.75 
Additional personnel includes: Glen DaCosta (tenor saxophone); David Madden (trumpet); Nambo (trombone); Devon Evans (percussion).
Digitally remastered by Ted Jensen (2001, Sterling Sound, New York, New York)
An interesting collection of singles and posthumously archived material created in the same way as Hendrix's CRASH LANDING and The Beatles "Free as a Bird," (albeit with most of the original musicians), CONFRONTATION is more consistent than one would expect and includes at least one certified classic in "Buffalo Soldier." The record features some very tasty guitar, good vocal performances and the always rock-steady rhythm section of the Barrett brothers. While not absolutely essential, it should certainly be the next purchase for anyone who already owns all of the official Marley albums. While the disc is perhaps a little light on variety, it's still a Bob Marley album and thus as good as the best work of many other artists. Overall, CONFRONTATION is great mellow summertime listening and a worthy addition to any reggae collection.
A posthumous collection produced by Rita Marley, based on work left behind by Bob upon his death. Some of his ...

| | Clay Aiken Measure Of A Man CD (2003)
Polka Therapy songs
$8.49  
A genuine pop culture phenomenon who unexpectedly transcended the instant fame granted by his second-place finish in the AMERICAN IDOL competition, Clay Aiken made a decidedly un-hip media figure, often looking and sounding more like George Bush's nerdy, Andrew Lloyd Weber-loving nephew than a sexy or dangerous rocker. Perhaps not surprisingly, Aiken (with the help of uber-producer/record-company mogul Clive Davis), has crafted what sounds like the first-ever secular contemporary Christian album.
With an utter lack of pretense and genuine feel-good vibe worthy of the best work of Newsong or Steven Curtis Chapman, MEASURE OF A MAN is a pristinely produced, relaxed-sounding showcase for Aiken's gorgeously clear and unaffected vocal style. On solid pop songs like "Shine" and the McCartney-esque "Perfect Day," the retiring Southern singer communicates his songs in a pure, direct fashion that, by virtue of its appealing simplicity, manages in short order to project more soul than a CD rack full of gut-busting Michael Bolton histrionics. A defining moment in the mainstream pop genre, MEASURE OF A MAN bridges the generation gap between teens and their parents with comforting consistency and a refreshing lack of flash.
Personnel: Clay Aiken (background vocals); Dan Warner (guitar, acoustic guitar, electric guitar); Andreas Carlsson (guitar, background vocals); Eric Bazilian, Borge Petersen-Overlier, Fridrik Karlsson, Tim Pierce, Eivind Aarset (guitar); Clif Magness (acoustic guitar, electric guitar, piano, keyboards, programming, background vocals); Rick Nowels (acoustic guitar, bouzouki, keyboards); Marcus Englof (acoustic guitar, keyboards, programming); Esbjern Ehrwall (acoustic guitar); Chris Glansdorp (cello); Doug Emery (piano, keyboards, programming); Samuel Waermo (keyboards, percussion, programming); David Siegel, Martin Sjolie, Greg Kurstin, Steve Mac, Dave Arch, Charles Judge (keyboards); Wayne Rodrigues (drums, programming); Tim ...
