One Hiski Salomaa single was on earlier post, here's his debut one from 1927

Loituma's recent version of Ievan polkka became a while ago a bizarre Internet phenomenon (go search YouTube for that), but it's not the only version; here's Jorma Ikävalko in 1950.

(and if someone could point me to the direction of Matti Jurva's 1935 version of the same, I'd be happy...)
