From all the years watching the Welk show, the Music Makers have done thousands of tunes done in champagne style.
They also did covers of very popular pop and rock songs! Here's a few for example....
Joy To The World (Three Dog Night) by Gail and the fellas
Rock Around The Clock (Bill Haley and the Comets) by the band and singers
Land of a Thousand Dances (Wilson Pickett) danced by Bobby and Elaine
I Say a Little Prayer (Dionne Warwick) by Tanya Falan
and the grand-daddy of them all.....
One Toke Over The Line (Brewer & Shipley) by Gail and Dale

- 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.
I really like these. I like that version of "Say A Little Prayer."
