Crankin' It Up



Over on my YouTube channel I had a request for the name of the song on the flip side of "The Mocking Bird," a whistling novelty song I posted a long time ago. After looking through four record cabinets and six file drawers, I found it! The flip side is another whistling novelty, the "Tout Passe Waltz," performed by Guido Gialdini. Have a listen to an unusual record made by an exceptionally talented man, who probably met a very sad and tragic end. I was very glad to find this record, but after reading about the artist on Wikipedia, I am a bit wiped out.
