For the record I like yodeling, I like polkas, I like Slim Whitman. We're off to a good start this morning.

He got lots of respect - Wikipedia George Harrison cited Whitman as an early influence: "The first person I ever saw playing a guitar was Slim Whitman, either a photo of him in a magazine or live on television. Guitars were definitely coming in." [23] When a young Paul McCartney purchased his first guitar, the left-handed musician was unsure how to play an instrument that was manufactured and strung for a right-handed player. It was not until McCartney saw a picture of Whitman playing left-handed that he re-strung his guitar so that he too could play left-handed. [24] [25] American pop singer Michael Jackson cited Whitman as one of his ten favorite vocalists. [26]
