Bump, because I love me some Lawrence Welk. The "Live from Hawaii" episode is a great color time capsule that, according to imdb, aired September 9, 1972. The VHS is still available on Amazon, but now it's around $90, so it's nice that it can be found on YouTube, even if it's not the greatest quality. (Still, I'd love a copy of the show transferred to DVD, so I anyone has one or wants to get rid of their VHS at a reasonable price....) But that wasn't the only program Lawrence Welk did in Hawaii! The show first went to the islands shortly after Hawaii became a state and broadcast from the Royal Hawaiian's beachfront, complete with a giant tiki and some great songs with Buddy Merrill on steel guitar.
