Reaction - Lawrence Welk Christmas Special (1958) with Pete Fountain
Reaction to one-hour TV Christmas Special from Lawrence Welk and co. back in 1958. Didn't realize it was an hour when I started -- I thought it was just a clip -- but I just rolled with it. There must be about 20 songs, including a performance by Pete Fountain, plus a lengthy segment where Welk introduces the children of all the performers on the show. A lot of cheese but also a lot of genuine cheer and hope. (See * for some notes on a couple of technical issues.)
Original Video

The Lawrence Welk Show (Wikipedia)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lawrence_Welk_Show
More about Welk's background and accent (Wikipedia):
Welk was born in the German-speaking community of Strasburg, North Dakota. He was sixth of the eight children of Ludwig and Christiana Welk, Roman Catholic ethnic Germans who had emigrated in 1892 from Odessa in the Russian Empire (now Ukraine)...
...The family lived on a homestead that is now a tourist attraction. They spent the cold North Dakota winter of their first year inside an upturned wagon covered in sod. Welk left school during fourth grade to work full-time on the family farm...
...Welk became an iconic figure in the German-Russian community of the northern Great Plains-his success story personified the American dream.Welk did not learn to speak English until he was 21; he never felt comfortable speaking in public.To the day he died, his English had a marked German accent."
*Production Notes*
-- I was experimenting with a new audio setup and couldn't get it right, so it came out crappy. But the music on the show is fine!
- My new audio setup also meant that as I listened I was getting a lag in audio so the video didn't sync up. I mention it couple of times in the course of the video, until I realized it was probably only me.

    They were great 👍 and it’s sad 😢 they’re no longer around. When they were alive they had so many songs including many hits. When they did, “Bye Bye Love” they started out as Rockabilly artists. In 1958 they both took an interest in Buddy Holly’s music 🎼, especially one song 🎶 in particular called, “Wishing.” Buddy recorded a demo tape for them just that the Everly Brothers manager said no. The reason because them and Buddy Holly recorded for different labels 🏷️ and their manager qoated legalities to them. They were good 👍 rockers 🎸🥁🎤 dispite they both came from Country Roots. 😊 This song 🎵 “Till I Kissed You” was an awesome 😎 for its day.

A los 67 años cantó para Disney "La bella durmiente", tiene una estrella en el Paseo de la Fama de Hollywood y un récord Guiness por su extenso rango vocal en 1955 y 1956 (más de 5 octavas), se dice que su voz era tan grave como la de Leonard Cohen y tan aguda como la de Montserrat Caballé, y sin ningún arreglo musical como los hay en estos tiempos. Cantó hasta los 75 años sin desafinar y murió a los 86 de un cáncer colorectal en Los Ángeles en 2008. Pasarán otros 100 años desde su nacimiento y se seguirá hablando de Yma Sumac.

    You cannot compare how “offended” you are to how U.S. citizens of 1936 felt about Al Jolson’s and Wini Shaw’s screen performances in blackface. Moreover, you constantly gloomily saying “blackface, blackface” detracts from the enjoyment of this film clip.

The BRAINWASHING IS FOR ONE REASON -TO PROTECT CONTEMPORARY PROFIT! I have a DVD, you may also? FayaT Nicholis at an Eddie Cantor Society meeting, in the 1990's, maybe early 200's? and discussion comes up about him, and Harold? Just forget the specifics? Anyhow in a Cantor Movie, in a minstrel scene with Eddie, and others. in and out of blackface. Fayat reacts this way.'. Begins singing. ' I WANNA BE A MINSTREL MAN" - and then stating' Oh the pretty girls in that scene, now that's what I call intergration! of course he, and everybody laugh. It would not have personally mattered to me. if Al, or Winnie Shaw was not in blackface here, but still in a 1936. or any time aspect there is still nothing wrong with it. in THE ISOLATION OF THE SEQUENCE. collating it with Jim Crow/ slavery etc etc, of WHICH CONTEMPORARY PROFIT PROTECTORS DO.

      If you don't want to hear my comments, just watch the original video. The link is right there. To respond: Naturally I don't "understand," but that is the point of a reaction channel -- to experience, to try to understand, to experience. If I already knew everything and had listened and watched this many times, why would I be making a recording of it? Again, if you want to watch the performance, you are welcome to watch it without me. Another purpose of this channel is to hear from people in comments who will explain and teach, agree, disagree. I will say that understand a great deal about Jewish performers of the early 20th century, going back to the 00s, 10s, 20s, 30s etc., but not this /particular/ aspect. So, instead of condemning my ignorance, why don't you say something constructive, like give me references to where I can hear people's original reactions or read the history? If you art going to criticize, back it up, or it's simply rude. Something else that is rude is to make accusations of bigotry to someone who you don't know at all. (Maybe you are not doing this but other people have done that.) I don't need to prove to you my "cred" on this, but it still insults me to have someone tell me what I know/feel. Maybe I can guess some things about you, but I won't because you don't say anything.

    'Wake up with the South-a in my mouth-a' Al Jolson did some songs in blackface, most notably 'Mammy', in which he expressed his love for his southern mother. Songs about the southern United States have been popular at various times.

      OK, that makes sense. I know there was a long tradition of singing about the South, often in a romantic way. I'm not sure if Stephen Foster was the first, writing song like "Camptown Races" and "My Old Kentucky Home." Many times the writers of the songs would never have even visited the South, they were from New York and following more of a tradition or a trope. At least the Gershwins had to go on vacation in the Carolinas before writing "Porgy and Bess."

    I think Jolson is singing " with the Southie in my moutha"......He is refering to his Southern accent

      Thank you. I was speaking before thinking. It's obvious after it's explained. I swear I was thinking about a cigar or something.

    Great song, one of my favorites so are Walk Right In, Bird Dog, Let it Be Me(awesome). FYI all performances on AB were lip synced, Dick Clark confirmed it unlike Ed Sullivan. They were sooooo good they jumped ship to go to another record label in 1960. Well for a million dollars, true story. Keep up the good work.Have you reacted to the Righteous Brothers? Very popular on TH-cam.

      The first song you suggest is actually called "Walk Right Back". But for Darling, yes, please react to that one. That is my favorite Everly song, along with an album cut called "Just in Case".

      I know the song "Bird Dog." I will add it to my list. Funny story. When I was growing up, our family vacation was always camping. We would go away for a week or more into the woods with just our canoe and a tent. Anyway, I remember on one trip we were paddling on a river in New York state. My dad would often sing folk songs (like "My Darling Clementine") but one time he started singing the Everly Brothers. He started singing "Wake Up, Little Susie" and it was great until he forgot the words and said "Susie, we just woke up and we are in DEEP SHIT." My mom and dad got married in 1957 and this was their kind of music.

      I haven't reacted to the Righteous Brothers because I only want to do honest reactions to things I have never seen or am not familiar with. I have already watched those performances many times.
