I've been listening to Lawrence Welk for years and this collection is my favorite. I have other CD's and this tops them all.

This 3-CD set consists of some really great music from the Lawrence Welk orchestra. However, I was disappointed to find that there are only 10 cuts on each CD -- that's less than one would have found on a standard LP years ago. I assume that creating this "Best of" collection involved nothing more than cutting and pasting from the many earlier Welk recordings. I don't think it would have taken much more time or effort to give listeners more for their money.

The Best of Lawrence Welk CD's are excellent. They arrived in perfect condition and on time. They are almost all music, only a few with singing.
