IF YOU WANNA DANCE THE HULA

SING AN ISLAND SONG
ALOHA OE


The SOUTH SEA enchantment of the Hawaiian Islands was first discovered in 1778 by Captain Cook and his salty crew, comparatively recently by Lawrence Welk. Just a few months ago, the maestro and his Champagne music-makers played their first band date in Honolulu. Between Welk and the Hawaiians, it was love at first sight. Both of course, had admired the other from afar. Lawrence Welk records have been big sellers on the islands for years and his television show a great favorite. And Hawaiian music has long been a staple in the extensive Welk repertory. But, though the dancing fans at the Aragon Ballroom in Santa Monica, California, frequently requested these songs, this si the first time Welk has come out with an album devoted to them exclusively.

The numbers performed here are all top Hawaiian (and Lawrence Welk) favorites - ranging from the dreamy Song of the Islands and Sweet Leilani to the quizzical If You Wanna Dance The Hula! and the surf-rider's bounding favorite, On The Beach at Waikiki.

Band guitarist Buddy Merrill gets a chance in this recording to show off his versatility - doing exciting things with the regular strumming guitar and the plucked Hawaiian steel variety. At the time Buddy joined up with the Welk caravan, he was 17 years of age, but had never got around to learning to read music. But when, at Welk's urging, he began studying, Buddy not only learned to read in a few scant months, but went on to become, in Welk's words, "...one of the best band arrangers in the business. He's got a tremendous sense of rhythm," Welk explains, "and all of Buddy's orchestrations have a built-in beat that makes them great favorites with the dancers."

For superlative dancing and listening, this newest Welk album is admittedly one of their best. It was waxed while Lawrence and the lads still wore dreamy smiles, recollecting their Polynesian holiday - the soft trade winds, the magnificent scenery, the warm island hospitality and the haunting strains of Aloha Oe.

When Dick Dale left Algona, Iowa, they all said, "There goes our best singer!" "Who's
gonna sing at the American Legion picnic; entertain at Junior Women's League dance?"
Dick is gonna leave us; go to Cedar Rapids or Des Moines and get himself lost in the
swirl of the show biz crowd," they cried.

Meanwhile, deep in the heart of Salt Lake City, the "Fastest Fret Fingers West of the
Missouri," (a long title, but true) was strumming his way to bigger and better guitars.
Buddy Merrill was proving he was worth his weight in Fender speakers.

Now, for the first time, these two are on an album together. Buddy, arranging the bright
and colorful settings for Dick Dale's unmistakable, "clear as a bell" voice that has won
him fans from Coast to Coast. Most of the songs on this album, Dick, a regular on the
Lawrence Welk Show, has sung either at the world famous Hollywood Paladium or on the
Saturday night television show.

With this new album, Dick Dale, stands tall, singing his songs, clear eyed in his Brooks
Brothers overalls, just a plain, Chateaubriand eatin', "Country Boy." The Lawrence Welk
Show has been good to him.

He didn't get lost in the swirl of the show biz crowd of Cedar Rapids or Des Moines.
Back in Algona, Iowa, they watch their boy in full color on the ABC TV Network, broadcast from Hollywood...and they marvel!

How was they t'know, Dick Dale was an expert singer.

Previously Released on Dot Records


Lawrence Welk has been called corny and square by critics for years, but he hasn't let the criticism stop him from playing his kind of music. And, more importantly, the critics haven't stopped Welk's fans from loving him.

The fans know what kind of music they like, and Lawrence Welk knows hot to play it.

Lawrence Welk started pleasing fans in the 1920's in South Dakota when he was a member of "The Biggest Little Band in America," a six man group. The band played one night stands all over the Dakotas, packing them in at dates in Legion halls, and it had its own local radio show.

Lawrence Welk moved to Pittsburgh in 1928 and started playing some of the big ballrooms in the East.

In 1952 he and hs band were hired for six weeks at the Aragon Ballroom in Santa Monica, California. He stayed at the Aragon for nine years, and during that time he began his network television show, made big-selling records, and came to be known and loved all over the country.

His career, one of the "They laughed when I sat down to play" variety, proves that the most important judges of a performer are his audiences. Lawrence Welk many not please critics, but he pleases his fans, and they have faithfully watched his television show, come to see in in personal appearances, and bought his albums.

In this album, Lawrence Welk brings you Hawaii; now one of the 50 states but still an exotic tropical paradise. Hawaii; the land of lagoons and volcanoes, surfers and hula dancers, palm trees and hibiscus has never sounded beteter than with the champagne touch of our musical mainlander - Mr. Lawrnece Welk.

The millions of people who watch the Lawrence Welk show, together with the additional millions who have bought his records, are well aware that Lawrence is a great believer in variety, in doing the unusual and unexpected. Witness his hit records during the past year or two: Calcutta, Last Date, Yellow Bird, and now Baby Elephant Walk. Each of these is distinctly different from the others in sound, in arrangement and in rhythm.

One of the most unusual is the Baby Elephant Walk, Lawrence's latest smash hit single. Written by the famous Henry Mancini, it plays a prominent part in a key scene from the exciting Paramount picture "Hatari." It's off-beat rhythmic punctuations, its use of the calliope, and above all its clever and charming melody, with a humorous use of blues harmonies, make it one of the most distinctive pieces of music ever written for motion pictures. The Welk treatment of this outstanding material performs the necessary magic to transform it into a hit record.

This album of great selections is the second which Lawrence Welk has issued this year bearing a Hank Mancini song as its title piece. The other was "Moon River" DLP 3412.
