Summary/Abstract: The author discusses the problem of the so-called low circulation of contemporary Polish popular music (music released on flexi discs, wedding music, a broad range of amateur music production, football chants, amateur rock music). He analyses music tastes of the Polish working class and the social functioning of genres and styles of music, characteristic of these tastes, reflecting on the crucial moments in cultural policy and the most important turning points in history: “Polish thaw” in 1956, the consequences of the 1968 events, the indigenous model of mass culture in the 1970s, the situation after the martial law and the transformation of the political system in 1989.
