That a traffic accident could have taken Dick Kesner is still difficult to fully accept. It is hard to believe that there will be no new outpourings of brilliantly moving melody from this popular artist.

What set him off from other talented violinists? Millions who saw or heard Dick Kesner perform on the Lawrence Welk Show - or in his own numerous best-selling albums-were naturally impressed with his superb technical virtuosity. But, more than that, they found themselves applauding a quality that transcended even his musicianship.

This quality is a warmth-an ability to invest each song with a very special glow. As a result, people didn't just listen to Dick Kesner; they responded.
Matching that inner musical glow was the fabulous tone of the Kesner violin.
Appropriately, it was a genuine Stradivarius-and from it came magic...satiny, soaring golden notes. The measure of that magic is wonderfully captured in this album of excitingly varied selections...best-loved, most-requested standards that truly constitute DICK KESNER'S GOLDEN FAVORITES.

Your own particular favorites are surely included in a list that embraces; the wild,
infectious tempo of GYPST...two contracting classical selections-HUNGARIAN DANCE #5 and Dvorak's beloved SONGS MY MOTHER TAUGHT ME...the sweet strains of INTERMEZZO and THE OLD REFRAIN...a bit of Latin lilt in AMOR...the nostalgic mood of AUTUMN LEAVES or SMOKE GETS IN YOUR EYES. These, and others, have an enduring quality that makes each rehearing a delightful new experience.

If the richest legacy anyone can leave behind is the pleasure they have granted others, then Dick Kesner has been generous indeed. And an album such as DICK KESNER's GOLDEN FAVORITES is its own glowing memorial.

One of the brightest highlights of Lawrence Welk's popular TV shows is the appearance of the adorable, sweet-voiced Lennon Sisters...four youngsters whose wholesome charm and delightful harmony have made them the darlings of the entertainment world.

The songs in this sparkling new album comprise a wonderful collection of the Lennon Sisters' best songs. It includes favorites such as the lively Zip-A-Dee Doo-Dah; the ever popular Allegheny Moon; the inspiring He; and the song the girls made into an extraordinary smash hit, Tonight You Belong To Me.

Of the four, Diane (Dee Dee) is the eldest. Blonde and beauitufl, with a soprano voice to match, Diane is "Big Sisters" to the group. Peggy, who is dark and petite, is a straight-A student, kiddingly known to her sisters as "the brain." Kathy, who assumes the baritone parts in the quartet, is nicknamed "little Barry," by virtue of her rich voice. Janet is the youngest, her sisters' pet, and cute as a button.

The girls, singing since their toddler days with their parents and grandparents in family song-fests, come by their musical talent quite naturally. At home, says Dad Bill Lennon (who doubles as manager, coach and trainer), the girls virtually live with song, accompanying themselves at whatever they do. Mom, Isabelle Lennon, is another natural singer, but is kept quite busy tending to the girls and the Lennons five other children. According to Bill, his girls have "an innate ability to sing on pitch. They have been exposed to only 'true tone,' without flatting or sharping."

The girls first came to the attention of maestro Welk through his son, Larry, Jr., who kept after him until he agreed to audition his son's young friends. They made their debut just two weeks after sweeping the elder Welk right off his feet. Within a month they were "regulars" on the show, and are now one of the most outstanding and nationally admired young singing groups in show business.

LAWRENCE WELK and his Musical Family performs 200 YEARS OF AMERICAN MUSIC



LAWRENCE WELK

and his Musical Family performs

200 YEARS
OF AMERICAN MUSIC

Special 2-Record Set

RANWOOD
RECORDS, INC.

STEREO R-7002


This album is admittedly a very ambitous and challenging project. It would obviously be impossible to do full justice to 200 years of American music in two albums and our choices represent extensive research, hours of discussion (sometimes quite heated) within our production staff, and occasional rejections, regretfully made.

Anyone familiar with our TV show must know how strongly I feel about our wonderful country, and how unthinkable it would be to let such a historical milestone as our nation's Bicentennial go by without a very special salute from our Musical Family. Early in 1976 we are presenting two consecutive TV shows, based on this album.

For ever a year I have been wracking my brain, trying to find a suitable Birthday tribute to America. It was my own son, Larry Welk, Jr. who finally came to my rescue. It was his idea to record a double album, featuring highlights of our musical history. Larry is a top executive of Ranwood Records, so, after 50 years in music I find myself, in a sense, working for my son!

In the past few years I have tried to be partially retired. Still, our weekly TV show is practically a full time job, and keeps me occupied much of the time. In spite of a very busy schedule, I was so enthused about this album that I insisted on being present for all the recording sessions. Therefore I speak from first-hand knowledge when I say I'm convinced that this collection of songs will prove to be a memorable tribute to the country we love.

We have attempted to include some songs of historical significance, some which are typical of various musical eras, and others which have achieved a certain immortality, having stood the test of time.

I'd like to express my gratitude to everyone connected with this album, with a special "that you" to George Cates for his tireless efforts and his masterful job of putting it all together. Also, my compliments to George, Bob Ballard, Curt Ramsey and Joe Rizzo for their outstanding arrangements.
