Yellow Bird – LAWRENCE WELK***

Yellow Bird/Don’t Worry/Goodnight Irene/Runaway/Mockin’ Bird Hill/Marianne/My Love For You/Heartbreak Hotel/Harbour Lights/Love Those Eyes/Loch Lomond/Juanita

1961 was the best year for Lawrence Welk’s brand of easy listening orchestral music. He followed up his chart topping Calcutta with Yellow Bird which peaked at one place lower. (US:2)

“These tracks find the conductor/musician/arranger Lawrence Welk interpreting such traditional material as Loch Lomond, Juanita, and the 1961 hit Yellow Bird.”

“Whether you are 28 or 88, this collection of Lawrence Welk orchestral classics is one to own. From his hit Yellow Bird to Mockin’ Bird Hill, there's something for every mood you may be in.”

“Lawrence Welk may have been for your grandparents. But if you listen carefully, you'll understand what a craftsman he was. No orchestra sounded better than 'The Champagne Music Makers'. Care to recall a time when music was easy to listen to? Pick up a copy of this LP and pop a bottle of champagne.”
