A new album I am listening to in celebration of Octoberfest is "Octoberfest U.S.A. - Ingo and his Continentals featuring Manny the Singing Chef"
The band consists of Ingo Froelich on accordion, Tommy Sperl on electric bass, and Bobby Musillo at the helm of the drum set. They are joined on several numbers by Ingo’s brother Manny, otherwise known as the Singing Chef. Manny was the owner/chef of the Student Prince German tavern in Stone Ridge, NY. Most of the album is straight up German beer drinking tunes played and sung with style and gusto. However, the group breaks with tradition to give a nod to the American audience by playing their version of 'Rhinestone Cowboy'.

Manny sort of looks like Jimmy Kimmel in that photo. (
