Jo Ann Castle with Boogie Woogie

[@geraldinepfeiff2016]

We watched it every Saturday night, and we all enjoyed it❤❤❤

[@dr.troycrane9973]

Jo An was the best part of the Lawrence Welk Show!

[@melvingeloneck3344]

I almost forgot how much I loved Joann Castle! That woman could boogie!

[@deborahsnell8453]

She was so talented and could play that piano!!! She was so pretty too! She was the best part of Welk’s show!!

[@bcgrittner8076]

I miss her. The Saturday evening LW reruns on public television do bring back some fond memories.

[@lamarlogan7612]

Prettiest piano player ever.Plays great also.

[@deborahsnell8453]

She was great and could play that piano!! She was the best part of that show!!

[@SteveMoser]

That woman was a dynamo. Incredible talent!

[@AnthonyCinquambreJ]

They could play something fierce Lawrence welk was top dog my grandparents used to jam she played piano and grandpa played the accordion Amen and Saturday was welk show lets raise the roof prayers and blessings

[@geebeeman1]

I was always amazed that they would have her and her amazing presentation... On their show!

[@FD-tu9rt]

"Good God girl" !!!!!! Go Jo ....."GO" !!!!!! Jo Ann Castle is an American Treasure ! She has more talent than most people today have in their left finger !!! For all the flack and critisism that the Lawrence Welk Show received , the simple joy of knowing this cool , unbridled but disciplined woman was gonna come and "kill it" on the piano every week , made the schmaltz in the show tolerable. Here , she does it best with this awesome boogie woogie ! Amazing 💜

[@JordanP3T3R]

LOL! "She has more talent than most people today have in their left finger" This made me laugh out loud! I think it describes a large portion of the population

[@FD-tu9rt]

Thanks Jordan ! Wasn't trying to "kick" anyone to the curb who may be up and coming.........it just seems that we had more grace and true musical prowess back in the day ! I hope that more people expose themselves to the incredible power of instrumental performers. 👍

​@@JordanP3T3Rсовременное поколение слишком тупое что бы понять и почувствовать настоящую музыку

[@jamesmcinnis208]

​@@JordanP3T3RYou should see my left finger when I sip tea. I think you may be impressed with the talent contained therein.

[@craig9843]

That’s right!!!

[@rogerallenjr.6359]

One of the best versions great tune

[@jenniferrhue6226]

Loved her as a child...still do. Amazing! She was the best part of the Lawrence Welk Show IMHO.

[@alpha-omega2362]

us kids loved her....her spot was worth being forced to watch the show by our parents...lol

[@jonboi206]

I just tried playing the broken octave baseline at this speed and that is not easy at all, and that’s with no right hand added! Jo Ann is something quite special!

[@bipeflier1]

Saw her live at the Golden Nugget Casino in Reno back in the mid '70s. She rocked the joint!

[@patrickarlaud4677]

I loved how her piano was repainted a different scheme every single week .

[@anamerican5499]

DANG!!!!!! She makes it look so effortless and easy.

[@michaelnaretto3409]

She certainly does make it look easy...

[@lianelayman6584]

It was easy for her.

[@craig9843]

@@lianelayman6584I guess so. Amazing how someone could develop this style. It’s all her own.

[@ninopond3493]

Talent like this does not exist today!

[@VinDcator]

Always smiling and beautiful to boot. She could hammer those keys in her sleep. I loved watching her.

[@craig9843]

Yes, and I didn’t even find out about her until the late 80s or early 90s. I was young around that time maybe 19 or 20. Would love to meet her.

[@cheric35]

The absolute best.

[@eandsm4620]

Makes one want to get off the couch & MOVE ! ! ! Thanks for posting!

[@peytonplace1758]

That hair! 😂😂😂

[@jennifershort3597]

OMG!!! Love this GAL!!

[@patrickarlaud4677]

Pure class ! Folks !

[@williamdonahue6617]

She was my young Saturday night crush even before I knew what a "crush" was!

[@SevenPlus65]

Yep! She was my secret girlfriend when I was a teenager

[@randallwhitehead5959]

I remember these days ... I had such a crush on you back in the day as a young boy-- little did I know I was Gay . 67 years later you’re still my Secret girlfriend love you❤️💙❤️💙

[@SevenPlus65]

I can relate 100%

[@UNOwen1]

I'd love to see Jo Ann and Messers Mills go head-to-head. These two women are - for my knowledge - easily the most amazingly talented (and fastest) artists I can think of.

[@davef.2329]

Pretty subdued for Jo Ann Castle... Nice.

[@cheric35]

Right in the pocket for boogie woogie

[@williamdixon1992]

Joan could teach Liberachie a thing or 2. Beautiful!

[@lianelayman6584]

IT's Liberace.

[@kfphillips1]

100% TRUE! And that is not being disrespectful to Liberace. It's just that there are great amd greater.

[@joeacord7696]

love it.

[@buffythoms1830]

[@georgefelty6357]

Jo Ann could get your foot a tappin and get you out of your seat!

[@jonathanbanks8749]

That's the real deal.

[@rudbeckie1]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SKVĚLÉ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@henkpepping]

Super

[@samkjolhaug1993]

left hand=bass right hands= horns

[@SteffiReitsch]

I wish these videos of her could have been recorded with better quality for posterity.

[@yamstar1johnson991]

Why didn't Yosh and Stan Schmenge ever do a guest appearance on Lawrence Welk?

[@henkpepping]

❤

[@petertime1536]

Georgie says "she has hair like a tall hat"

[@burpo]

"The higher the hair, the closer to God."

[@gianmariadipaolo9668]

Is boogie woogie blues of Albert ammons?

[@jozefmisiarz3552]

Super
