Li’l Wally was one of the first two inductees into the Polka Hall of Fame and had a career that spanned sixty-eight years. He recorded over 3,000 songs and had 150 releases.

Li’l Wally has played everything from Lawrence Welk (three appearances) to a concert for Pope John Paul II.

The rules, for bloggers who want to play: Get your iPod or media-player of choice, select your whole music collection, set the thing to shuffle (i.e., randomized playback), then post the first ten songs that come out. No cheating, no matter how stupid it makes you feel! Maybe link the songs to online music stores for readers’ convenience.

Living God

Norman Lee - Praise CD

Norman Lee, a PNCC member and Christian music artist has hit number one on Indieheaven with his song Living God. You can hear his work at Indieheaven as well.

The picture above is from a performance at St. Paul’s PNCC in Belleview, Florida.

Mr. Lee has a great sound and his music has a distinctively Catholic – Christian witness. Living God is about —“ the Eucharist. It is an amazing feat in a realm that is almost exclusively Evangelical.

Both of his albums, Praise, and God is with me are available from iTunes.

The following bio is from Mr. Lee’s website – Pray On:

As a lifelong entertainer, Norman Lee has raised the bar, bringing a faith based presentation to a population striving to find substance in their daily lives. Based out of central Florida, Norman has toured across the country for many years, performing on concert stages, charitable events and churches. He has appeared on numerous local and national television shows and his music has had national radio air play. Norman has opened up for such acts as George Jones, Temptations, Lou Rawls, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Brenda Lee, Travis Tritt, Lori Morgan, Loretta Lynn, Marty Stuart, Ray Price, Juice Newton, LeAnn Rimes. Norman Lee the singer songwriter is a charismatic performer who’s music appeals to all ages. His music combines praise and worship, contemporary Christian and gospel into one spirit filled sound.

Check out his music… it is worth a listen (free at Indieheaven).

The following is the press release I received:

Wielkiemu koncertowi towarzyszy wystawa Czesława Czaplińskiego (wieloletniego przyjaciela Jerzego Kosińskiego), zobaczymy fotografie wykonane przed i po zamachu terrorystycznym 11 września 2001 roku.

Ten szczególny koncert zainaugurują, Michał Urbaniak z Orkiestrą Kameralną —žAukso— pod dyrekcją Marka Mosia. Wykonają m.in. znany utwór autorstwa Urbaniaka pt.: —Manhattan Man—. Warto wspomnieć, że już w 2002 roku —“ w pierwszą rocznicę ataku na WTC, Michał Urbaniak zagrał koncert ku czci ofiarom tragedii, transmitowany przez CNN. Po raz pierwszy wówczas artysta zadedykował wszystkim nowojorczykom, wyjątkowe wykonanie kompozycji —žManhattan Man—.

Około godz. 20.00 rozpocznie się koncert amerykańskiego zespołu —žUrbanator—.

Artyści poprzez własną muzykę pragną oddać ubolewanie, hołd i współczucie ofiarom tragedii i ich bliskim. Własną twórczością chcą udowodnić, że wciąż pamiętają o tysiącach ludzi, którzy zginęli, a także o tych, których życie rozpadło się w pył z powodu śmierci i zniszczenia, jakie przyniósł 11 września 2001.
