The Big Band sound is hitting hard like rock; it jumps at you. The Brass Section is breathtakingly awesome. A very refreshing sound and good brass blends. The solo pieces are superb. This music is very enjoyable to listen to especially when relaxing late at night or very early in the morning. I also find that it contains some good dance swings.

I watched the Lawrence Welk Show for years and always waited to hear the big band pieces. The musicians were always superb. A lot of corny comments have come out of this show, but how can you argue with 29 consecutive years on TV!! All studio cats, these guys played together for years which produced a cohesive, clean sound. Their phrasing, intonation, and time is magnificent. This is a great CD for anyone who wants to be introduced to classic, big band music. Even the vocals are wonderful and crystal clear. The singer's intonation also is fantastic.

Enjoy

Bought this CD for my 85 year old father who watches the Welk Show every Saturday night. He LOVES this CD. Listens to it everyday and enjoys dancing around the house with my mother. I'm sooo glad I got it for them.

A lot of old time favorites....Great CD, use it in activities dept. at nursing home. Helps bring back fond memories of songs they used to sing. They love singing and reminiscing about the good old days.

If you are a fan of the Big Band era and enjoy the Lawrence Welk band, then you will enjoy this CD.

Got it for my mom who still watches the rerums of Lawrence Welk on TV. She loved it!
