I grew up with Lawrence Welk, but never really appreciated the music and quality of productions. But now that I am taking care of my mother who did and used to play in a band these are wonderful. Note this was made by cast members about five years after he passed, but still has the same clean cut wholesome performances. It is sort of a tribute to him.

As a nurse on an acute floor with geriatric residents, I wanted something the residents could enjoy, if i play this after their dinner, I don't have a whole floor of residents asking to go to bed and be toileted (all at the same time) .They love it enough. so I will be buying more, just don't know why its in black and white

Reviews can't be trusted
Reviews can't be trusted. Amazon only accepts a small percentage of negative reviews. Look at any product they have for sale. The positive reviews always outweigh the negative reviews by a large margin. I buy many things on Amazon and sometimes I'm not happy with my purchase. They rarely accept any negative reviews I send, even though I am always sure to adhere to their review policy. Shame on you Amazon!

Big Band Music
My family gathered once a week to watch The Lawrence Welk Show! We knew the names of all of the stars!! I am one of the lucky people who grew up knowing and dancing to "Big Band" music because my parents were raised in that era.

The video portion was acceptable, but the audio was not. Even at full volume, the audio was difficult to hear.

A favorite of my parents
And we don't mind Lawrence Welk and his music at all either. I don't know how many times Mom and Dad have watched this but the next time won't be the last!

Gave this to a friend, and he loves it!
We bought this as a gift for a friend who watches every repeat (now on PBS stations) of every Lawrence Welk show he can find. At first he was disappointed that this wasn't one of the "original" shows he'd already seen, but after watching this several times, he began to appreciate it exactly as it is.

Wonderful music
The music of Lawrence Welk is pure entertainment. The talents of those who produced this are forever in the debt of those who enjoy what they have created.

The volume on this DVD is horrible. It can hardly be heard while on full. Enjoyed the visual content though.
