Hugh the Whistle Man

[themasterofmovies]

is this improv or a cover of something?

[hughpetrie]

@themasterofmovies

Hello; It is a cover of an old ;pop/jazz number and what I'm blowing is basically drawn on the line by Charlie Parker on Alto Sax. The tune is 'Everything Happens To Me' .Amazing and scary is that it took my 80 year old brain 24 hours to remember Charlies last name..

You need to get more stuff on your site. Cheers! And thanks for visiting.

[xslimkrnboix]

what's with all the hate, lol.

half the people can't even whistle.

[hughpetrie]

@xslimkrnboix

Um? What hate?

Since I haven't a clue who you are, or why you'd ask that question I can't really answer it.

There is anger, for sure. Indifference to peace where it counts ticks me off.

Your clip of dance is well done.

@hughpetrie

Oh, I meant by all of the haters on your video!

A lot of people are talking smack about you and I think that's just wrong, cus you're an amaaaazing whistler! BD

Thank you!

[Logite]

Lol!!!

It's from a album of his released in 2002, that is hard to get, because they only released a select number of albums but I just thought that a part of it sounded like this song. Here is a link to a sample of the song it's track #10. Oh and Equipto is a rapper.

[hughpetrie]

@Dick69Hurtz Are you sure you heard my whistle on Equipto's album? I have never heard of this person before. How can I check this? I listened to what was on your site but that piece has no whistle. Is it on Youtube?

[kaylashalaylaaaaa]

your whistle matches your face :)

[BennnnyBoooom]

nice

[MrTall270]

Ya know buddy. I know jobs are hard to find and all, but DANG... it seems you could find somthing much better to do than just sit around pointlessly recording yourself whistling which is so terrible, my great grandmother could do better, and she's on oxygen. Whatever floats your boat though pal.

[kaylashalaylaaaaa]

@MrTall270 hmm well let's see what jobs you'll be doing at 77. it's called retirement and it's well deserved. it's also called enjoying the small things in life which are all that really matter, and sharing that joy with others. being able to whistle in tune and on key is a gift; sitting on your computer and typing very pointless judgmental and rude comments is not.

[Frikandidlo]

meh I've seen better,,

[CSM60]

Wow nice whistling! This is as good as singing!

[hughpetrie]

Well I hope they sound good when they get crazy. I now have two homes with a bird audience. Nothing like being for the birds.

Thanks for listening and have a good life.

I hope to do more so tune in again sometime.

[nickiscolour]

nice lip control there hugh

[hughpetrie]

Thanks for that. Had it all together at age 65, then lost my teeth and it's taken a bit of effort to have what I have now at 77. Feels good!

[HandwhistlerBen]

Beautiful sound and control.....

[ChillFlip]

get a life, whistling is for fags

actually, might as well spend youre last couple days whistleing

[amberlox]

My Cockatiels, Conures, Budgies, Love Birds, all love to jam with your tunes everyday!

Thanks so much!

[hughpetrie]

Why how perfectly beautiful! I get to inspire birds. I once had a Cockatiel leave its perch, walk across the room, up the back of the chair and onto my shoulder where it appeared interested in being very friendly. At another time I made the same one angry - guess I said the wrong thing. I'll be uploading something else sometime in the future. Maybe I should eventually arrange a DVD for you. :)
