Wendell Boyle's Polka

Wendell Boyle was a fine singer and songwriter. He was the manager at the Orwell historic village and he had a passionate love for the traditions of Prince Edward Island. He had a sharp tongue and a cutting wit but he was always quick to help someone who needed it.

He also hosted the Orwell ceilidhs and part of the evening was the island set dances where Wendell would choose a partner from the audience and then swing them so fast around the dance floor that they would nearly faint. I wrote this simple polka in his memory and it should be played as fast as possible. Can be joined with House of Prayer Polka, alternating tunes back and forth.
