[78-L] WHISTLE WHILE YOU WORK

[Michelle and Rick Harris]

And a lot of Ilse Werner, e.g.: "Du und ich im Mondenschein" or Ja, das ist meine Melodie"

Was there not a popular whistler by the name of Alex (or perhaps Alec) Templeton who recorded  many 78's back in the forties?

More recently there was a whistler named Ron McCroby. 4 albums on Concord Jazz, numerous TV appearances, but his day job was in advertising. I hadn't realized that he'd died in 2002.

to come up with a playlist on my iTunes of the Top Ten instrumentals-with-whistling records, no vocals.  They don’t have to be on 78, but I have 8 already and most of them are.  I’m not looking for the most obscure recordings you can think of, because I probably won’t be able to find a copy.  Here are the 8 I have so far...
