Glad this thread came back -- I was unaware of this but would like to get the vid.; I'll check the Amazon reference. BTW, I assume I'm not the only one who has this, but then again I don't see it referenced: the album, "Songs of the Islands -- interpreted by Lawrence Welk -- featuring Buddy Merrill." This has always stuck in my mind as for some reason I expected very little of it based on the cover art, a goofy cartoonish scene, not lush at all. Also, the "Lawrence Welk factor..." didn't seem to promise overwhelming coolness, shall we say. But I remember how pleasantly surprised I was at the quality of the album. One of my favorite Hawaiian ones. (Sorry, no digicam yet.) |
