Tuba Music the way it should be played.

Post by Rev Rob »

While cruising around on You Tube (how appropriate) I came across this old Lawrence Welk show with a tuba player playing the Clarinet Polka. He does an excellent job. Good old fashioned polka music with a tuba is great music to dance to.

Yes, W. C. Fields was good even with a tuba replacing his hat.

Harold Loefflmacher may have looked like WC Fields however he was a much happier person. I really enjoyed listening to his solo on the Lawrence Welk Show! :D
