The Lawrence Welk Show: Auctioneer

[1955thekeeper]

Later L. Welk shows utilized dubbing for almost all vocals and eventually for some instrumental solos. What was really sad was when the performer got lost and forgot their place in the song or coughed and yet the song still came through. Got to do what you got to do for the show must go on.

wow she is really good!

[ulvensnina]

Vilken skönhet hon var! Kan man knappt tro nu om henne :)

[redrover47]

Beauty and talent... you're so right.

[mythicky]

very unrated talent.  She is wonderful!

[DFSHAVE]

lovely lady that one ;)

[SueEGenaris]

Her lips aren't synched to the sound. Is this a YOUTube artifact or did Lawrence Welk use dubbing?

[jkalin196511]

Who cares if she's lip syncing, I lover her just the same!

[cabagecookie]

ahhh.... shes to good. Her pronounciation is to perfect. She can't do the slur.

The Miss America Pageant begged Lynn Anderson to compete for that title while she was on the welk show

just so cute

[mthivier]

A little more than a year after this, she would enter the stratosphere with her mega-hit "Never Promised You a Rose Garden". Didn't she come back again and sing that on the Welk show? I vaguely remember that.

[MrRocker04]

OMG, reafirms why I love her and her Mom so much.  WOW!

[onebaud]

Who can do this, Wonderful

[brucew44guns]

It's pretty wonderful when beauty combines itself with talent galore. What a package she is!!!

[mrbobevans]

Eva Barber was the better than Lynn Anderson.

[Readb4uvote]

@mrbobevans ... please don't make that statement (or comparison) in front of anyone. They'll think you're absolutely crazy. Look at Lynn Anderson's career in contrast to Ava Barber's .. that should tell you all you need to know. As for beauty, PLEASE, not to be mean, but Ava Barber wasn't even remotely pretty. Lynn Anderson was gorgeous.

[mrbobevans]

You may be right. But I still Anna's version of this song more Lynn Anderson's. Check her's out and you will agree with me.

[mthivier]

Ava was not a raving beautify the way, say Ralna was (or Lynn Anderson), but after they updated her look, gave her a more attractive hairstyle (the long, stringy hair pulled straight back did nothing for her), she was much more attractive. The one thing about Ava, she was over six feet tall...you remember at the end of each show Welk always danced during the closing theme with a different female cast member, but since Ava was a whole head taller than he was, he never danced with her!

[throovest]

Lovely hat

[highnrising]

You can almost make out the words when she sings it.

Leroy Van Dyke was way too fast for that.

[mrbobevans]

I like Anna's version better.

[lynnandersonfan]

How on earth does she do that???? (Same goes for "I've Been Everywhere Man"!) Lynn Anderson ROCKS!!!!!!

[fdartmouth]

Awesome outfit!

[Joey2064]

And isn't she lip-syncing so nice too!

[lynnfan]

I bet you never had a regular spot on a national weekly TV show!! You are a first rate JACKASS!!!

[quadraphonicfreak]

Why is he a JACKASS for stating fact? She is lipsyncing. Do you see a mic in front of her anywhere? All later performances from her after 1970 were almost always live. Unfortunately, Lawrence Welk never allowed live performances on his show and insisted that everything be pre-recorded.

[redheadedgolem]

Welk insisted everything on the show be pre-recorded -- even Arthur Duncan's taps. It's still a remarkable performance.
