The Welk Stars - Through The Years

I got my latest issue of Musical Family News yesterday, and the cover story featured is the upcoming new Welk special for public television.

This one, for the record is number 15...it is titled "THE WELK STARS - THROUGH THE YEARS".

Mary Lou Metzger will serve as your host, and it comes to you courtesy of Bob Allen, Bill Trash, Susan Dowdy and our friends from OETA.

From what I have read, the special will spotlight select members of the Musical Family through short bios, vintage pictures plus plenty of clips from the Welk show.

Here are the stars that will be featured....
