  • amazing video...salute sir ben..god bless u always......

  • @lovelygirl1508 Rowena- This nationally televised Show was a lifetime ago. I was only 26 years old, and David Letterman was 32. This was Before he had his Late Night Show. Back in those days, being invited to be a guest on the Tonight Show was a great honor because it was the Highest Rated Show in the USA. All the Stars were on there being interviewed or performing. I was a human interest story, because my Handwhistling is a novelty. I was seen by about 30 million people.

  • @HandwhistlerBen wow......that's why im so proud of you...sir BEN.....that's a extra ordinary talent from god,,,,,no body can take tha away.....keep it up master and im always here to support you always,,,,,take good care of yourself and god bless.....age dosn't matter as long us we can perform.......ROWENA......

  • @lovelygirl1508 - Thank you for your support! I should be able to perform on this level for about another fifteen years. I'm glad that you enjoyed seeing me perform so long ago. I had the time of my life. The Show producers flew me out from here in Pennsylvania all the way across the Country to Los Angels, California First Class Airfare, a limo picked me up at the airport and drove me to the top Hotel where all the Stars stay which they also paid for two nights.

  • It is so great to see your history. Your whistling is very heartfelt.

  • @LychkovIA Ivan- Glad that you stopped by and enjoyed seeing my Handwhistling when I was only 26 years old! David Letterman is only 32 years old there and it was BEFORE he had his own late night Show! Happy New Year!

  • @Ajohn13 John- Thank you for the comment. I'm so glad that you enjoyed this video. The interview section of the Show is a separate video up here. I was on for a total of ten minutes and treated like royalty. Have a great day.

  • Wow Ben, that was great. That must have been so exciting. Great performance.

  • @wilmahomemademusic Wilma- My Handwhistling is a great novelty musical act and has given me a lot of National exposure. This Show, where I was treated like royalty, was the greatest experience of my life! Glad that you enjoyed watching. Have a great weekend.

  • You're a great artist I find it really great, that you can make music with your hands
