Kathie Sullivan is in the solo spot, singing one of her beautiful numbers with her pure voice....one main reason why the Maestro hired her on the spot in 1976 when she was a student at the University of Wisconsin.
Speaking of Kathie, the Dallas Morning News has a great article of her....many thanks to Shirl for the heads up!
The blogmeister is also the webmaster behind the very successful Welk Musical Family.com. I have been a fan of Lawrence Welk since I was a youngster (not too long ago!) and have watched (and taped) his show every Saturday night on my local PBS station, WGTE and sometimes WBGU. My hometown and current residence is Toledo, Ohio and in recent years, I have attended many of their live concerts and had the chance to meet many of the wunnerful music makers as well.
