Memory Lane
-
Lawrence Welk Show, network premiere, 1955.
my, how the USA has changed.
-
I'm surprised I didn't see Porter Wagner or Dolly Parton.
-
@Kehaulani that was Hee Haw, wasn’t it? Watched them both as a kid with my Nana and G.Gradma
-
I mean the hair styles and clothing. Wagner and Parton would've fit right in with the Welk crew.
p.s. - no love lost with him then, none now. -
My husband and I love watching reruns for the wardrobe alone -too much fun there!
-
It's on PBS every Saturday here. I watch it because Welk had a lot of damn good musicians in his band and some really talented singers, too. But Welk himself was a bit on the corny side in my view anyway. But hell, it is the only commercial big band music on tv these days.
