  • Yet another "Harbinger"!

    One more CRYSTAL CLEAR example of the "Quickening" of undeniable increases in "The Signs and Wonders" which ever reinforce my belief in the inevitability of "The Mayan Apocalypse".

  • any idea where I can find the sheet music for this?

  • Larry was great, he would have been great in a doo wop group.

  • Мега-Супер!!!!

  • Super style !!!

  • it was just comedy

  • The reason Larry Hooper could hit those notes as if they were mid range, is because for him those notes were mid range.

  • awsome.... todays music sucks so bad.. almost every new artist sings in a high monatone voice like they were neutured

  • Thanks for posting. What a great ending. Both are so good.

  • That last note hit is about as low as the human voice can go...............the only instrument that will play that note is either the Tuba or the Contra-Sax.

    For those of you that don't know what a Contra-Sax is, or how big it is, look it up here on You Tube. The Contra-Bass has to be held in a device that is a special holder and wheeled in on a dolly.

  • So this is my great uncle. :) Would have been nice to meet kenny.

  • @zakmonziller which one is your great uncle

  • @zakmonziller wondering if you are aware of all your other relatives thru Kenny??? I was married to Jim, we have a son, Jonathon Trimble, his wonderful wife Sharon and am a proud grandmother of my two grand daughters thru them. : )

  • This could be the hippest moment ever on the Welk show ...☺

  • Zseniális.

  • Larry was actually Lawrence's milkman. When he heard his voice, he invited him to the studio. Thereya go...:)

  • Kenny was a wonderful father-in-law. I have many fond memories of him. As depicted in this video and others his personality comes thru so well. I loved his sense of humor and hope my grand children will enjoy viewing all the videos that can be found on the net.

  • @CTrimble100 Larry was actually Lawrence's milkman. When he heard his voice, he invited him to the studio.  Thereya go...:)

  • отлично

  • очаровательно

  • Larry Hooper always was and remains my favorite performer on the Welk Show.

  • fuckin' love the last note!

  • Is there a recording of this available? :) It's wonderful.

  • Dynamite. Anybody got Larry doing "Old Man River" uptempo

    with rhythm section ? (Circa 1967)

  • Great voice...He sounds a bit like Rev. Lovejoy from the simpsons (:

  • Lol WTF? XD

  • Bass singing... so hard to come by outside of country gospel and Russian (basso profundo) choir. It's just so refreshing hearing people sing base.

  • That A# (or Bb) is astonishing.

  • It is amazing!

    Larry hits low Bb at the end of the song.

    Super!!!

  • Larry Hooper seriously amazes me and I honestly don't have the musical knowledge to explain why..........that last note is fucking insane.

  • A song like this will seperate the singers from the low note hitters real fast . What's going to get you here is the tempo. Struggle with the pitch and the song runs over you. Larry nails it like it's mid range!

  • Good stuff! Thanks for posting...

  • Larry sings this better than the original performer.

  • Total und genau mein Stil. Tolle angenehme Stimmung bei den beiden. Ich denke ich habs jetzt >30 mal gehört. :-)

  • terrific performance by both ! - Larry sounds great - hope there's more Larry Hooper to post (someone should issue a CD)  - thanks

  • @gnativerson agree totally. There was an LP of Larry's

    50's performances, "Lawrence Welk Featuring Larry Hooper"

    in 1959, Larry did do a few recordings later, Also some

    of Larry's best performances were on the show and not

    made for records. How about it, the custodians of the Welk

    shows, how about a TV soundtrack CD of Larry???

  • I think better and lower than JD Sumner . Larry is  THE bass man !
