Welk Goes Country
This 1977 Salute to Nashville, one of two, the other from 1982, answers the musical question: What do you get when Champaign Music meets Country? Unfortunately, very little good. Arrangements for the band have little to do the Country sound. The same can be said for Norma's, Jimmy's, Semonskis' (minus one sister), solos. Kathie Sullivan's "Secret Love" is from "Calamity Jane," more a Western than Country song.
Problem is, Welk had one Country singer, Ava Barber, who pumps her new album on the show, and then slides in another during the rap around. She also gets some time in for her drummer husband. And that comes closer to the theme than any other. The second is lip synced rather obviously.
