“U.S. Tour”
Host: Mary Lou Metzger with guest Tanya Welk-Roberts
As Lawrence says in his opening remarks, he’s played almost
every small town in the United States – and every state but Alaska – so
he takes a special interest in this musical tour of the country. Things
get underway with the entire chorus and orchestra and “This Land Is
Your Land,” Ralna sings “By the Time I Get to Phoenix,” then Bob
Ralston ripples off a piano medley of New York songs, and Sandi and
Sally ask “Do You Know the Way to San Jose?” Jo Ann Castle does a
Castle-version of “On the Beach at Waikiki” and Myron Floren noodles
through an infectious “Pittsburgh, Pa”.
