Lawrence Welk and His Novelty Orchestra ~ Spiked Beer You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

I hopped on this thread because I figured you'd be photowhoring Mary Lou Metzger. | |

I was gonna say the same...my Grandparents LOVED Lawrence Welk, but he had too much geritol in his music for my tastes... "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

That's where we were forced to watch them when I was a teenager waiting for the good stuff to come on! "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

I used to listen to the easy listening radio station in the 80's, before that format was discontinued. So I liked some of the music on the show. I always wondered how they would do all of that dancing while smiling at the same time.

The one show that both my Grandparents and us grand kids liked to watch together was the Donny and Marie Show. Talk about dancing and smiling at the same time!

I'm sure these days they pay plenty for those nice bright white smiles! "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato
