Can you identify a Polka recording ?

Yesterday I was auditioning some hifi equipment. One of the demo tracks we listened to sounded very like the Strauss Thunder and Lightning Polka. This particular recording featured a very prominent gunshot throughout.

Does anyone know of this particular recording ?

Unfortunately the track was on a cdr and the shop did not know what it was.

thanks for the info Lisa,

I have done a little more research and discovered that the track is called

Banditen galop (Bandits Gallop).

It is also a Strauss Polka.

thanks again
