I like the one with “Play That Funky Music, White Boy”.

Ray Conniff may not be Welk, but he’s awfully close.

And I grew up listening to [this album](http://www.amazon.com/Music-Mary-Poppins-Sound-Fair/dp/B000002AAS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1275933773&sr=8-1) so snatched it up as soon as I found it on CD. 😃

I will admit to having LW playing in the background when I’m on the computer. Don’t have any albums, though.

And, on a side note, I know Jerry Burke (organ and piano) only from youtube, but there’s something creepy looking about him.
