Stanley Dlugoleski, better known as "Polka Stash," has taken his lifelong devotion
to Cleveland-Style Polkas beyond the call of duty. In the late 1960s, Stash began
his quest to record live music anywhere and everywhere, taking his trademark tape
recorders beyond Cleveland to capture polka performances in Alaska, Florida, Pennsylvania,
Tennessee, Illinois, Wisconsin and Minnesota. Continually upgrading his equipment,
Stash built a library of more than 1,000 tapes and became an important resource for
musicians who often turned to him for unique recorded versions of certain songs and/or
combinations of players. An aggressive promoter, Stash has distributed stickers,
pins, candid snapshots and other keepsakes at his own expense to herald the virtues
of polka music.
