There are some really fun polkas on this album and you'll recognize most of the tunes. The venue was packed with all the other senior citizens that had arrived before her, so she watched the show from outside one of the windows of the place.
Who knew that pretending to be on "The Lawrence Welk Show" could be so much fun? Years later (in the 1980s), my mother got to see Myron Floren at some festival back home. He completely wowed us! I remember we would dance ourselves into complete exhaustion trying to imitate him (none of us knew how to tap dance). But the best performer of all that we all wanted to be was Arthur Duncan, the tap dancer. Abel and Sammy would be the various guy singers, but Abel would be Bobby to my Cissy (Sammy was the youngest and the shortest at the time - he's the tallest now).
Now, how many of you can say that you used to do that? I would be Lawrence Welk (after all, I was the oldest and therefore, the boss), and then I would be several of the girl singers (mostly Ana Cani, because she was from Mexico). My younger cousins, Abel and Sammy, also grew up with the show, and we used to play that we were on "The Lawrence Welk Show". Myron was one of my favorite performers on the show, along with Bobby and Cissy (my very favorites), and the guy with the great tenor voice. I remember watching the show with my parents and aunt every Saturday evening (the only other option was "Hee Haw" and we definitely were NOT a "Hee Haw" type of family) when I was a little kid in the 1960s and early 1970s. Enjoy these favorites: Big Band, Champagne Music and Polkas & Waltzes.Ĥ.Here's a treat for you polka lovers! I couldn't resist buying this album when I saw it because I grew up with "The Lawrence Welk Show" and loved Myron Floren.
Here are 3 CDs, each with a different kind of music, for your dancing and listening pleasure with 36 songs in all.
