Young World – LAWRENCE WELK***

Young love is the theme that links the modern standards on Young World, interpreted by the orchestra of Lawrence Welk. His albums appear to be interchangeable with those of fellow Dot artist Billy Vaughn, both of whom recorded separate tunes from the other. (US:6)

“Demonstrates that touch of magic, and the light and happy feel, that Welk added to every one of his pieces. I have discovered through experience that most non-Welk music is like flat champagne.”

“I have always enjoyed listening to Mr. Welks music. His orchestra is one of the best in the business. They are absolutely the greatest.”

“Mr. Welk and his 'bubbly' musical style was a format that drew more than it's fair share of ridicule from the more acerbic musical 'experts' who, after 1955, fell into a pit known as 'only rock & roll counts'. Among those sharing their barbs and darts with Welk were people like Pat Boone, Engelbert Humperdinck and Bobby Vinton. Strangely, however, they all shared one common factor: their music sold in the millions.”

“Extremely beautiful music....I love all the songs on this LP. I can't believe sometimes how music can make you feel so good.”
