it's great to see and hear Mr Welk playing the accordian on these wonderful old b & w shows, he was really a great showman! Thanks for posting this video!

@ronniespraggs Actually, he did: The Mills Brothers back in the early 60s before the Civil Rights Act. You can find it here on youtube. That showed courage and liberality of spirit. And yes there are fewer fascists in Germany than in America now. Your wingnut right is pretty frightening. This from an Englishman whose father was bombed by the Germans and great grandfathers fought in the trenches in WWI.

I know! Germany is an amazingly civilized and peaceable place these days, with barely a hint of Nazi-ism (Apart from a few juvenile and moronic skinheads) or trace of people like Lawrence Welk anywhere, thank goodness! Go though all the clips of Welk's hundreds of TV programs on here, and see if you can find a hint of a black man or woman... go on... it's about as likely as at a Ku Klux Klan rally. Well... same thing really!

@ronniespraggs Hello. That Song is forbitten here in Germany. We do not symphatice with the third Reich and his Criminals. If you sing that Song here- you find yourself in Jail before you can spell Chattanooga.

@ronniespragstheinsane - Believe it or not, the Hitler Youth didn't really have a strong presence in North Dakota where Welk was born and raised.

And here's me thinking this was just an Earthworm Jim tune.
You know... I love this stuff more than any other music... and I still am a Slayer fan... hmmm.... there is nothing better for the soul than LW. It is a shame when people cannot see that.
