On Saturday July 24th at 7:00 PM our local PBS station ran an old Lawrence Welk show. Just as my Dad did in the 70's, I tormented my kids by making them watch a few minutes. This particular show, episode 1247, in the first few minutes had what I think was a Chamberlin being played. The sound was an accordian and what makes me think it might have been a Chamberlin vs. a spinet Baldwin or Kimbell organ was the absense of stops, padal buttons, etc. The keyboard was a single manual, did not have 88 keys and was very plain/simple in appearance. I've googled Chamberlin images and can't find what I saw. Anyone know if the Welk Orchestra used a Chamberlin?
