My mom’s in the back, if you can spot her. Ken forgets his lines and makes up his own! In those days they didn’t stop tape to redo the number. I just had to post this song from ’72- it cracks me up! Half way through Ken Delo’s song his chaps start to fall down! The whole group is laughing their heads off.

My husband Mike likes to ask my mom how much extra money Welk had to pay her to do this number. This is an audio from mom’s album that was actually dated 1966. I asked my mother about this one, and she said she liked it because they didn’t make her wear a funny cone hat. She said it was fun to work with the umbrellas and some choreographing. This was about when my mother decided to start growing her hair out. This was one of my favorites growing up.Ī 1969 fun song, and they even got to ride scooters!Ī 1969 rendition of an international hit tune. Mom had a leaf stuck in her hair at one point.
