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....

ANACANI
BOBBY BURGESS
JO ANN CASTLE
HENRY CUESTA
DICK DALE
KEN DELO
ARTHUR DUNCAN
RALNA ENGLISH
JOE FEENEY
THE LENNON SISTERS (DIANNE, PEGGY, KATHY & JANET)
MARY LOU METZGER
TOM NETHERTON
BOB RALSTON
JIMMY ROBERTS
NORMA ZIMMER

It's scheduled to air on PBS stations (during pledge drives of course) in March 2009....I can't wait to see it!
