"The Mexican Whistler" - Roger Whittaker
So, after the earlier Finnish one comes a Mexican one, this time performed by the elderly Roger - there may be snow on the roof, baby, but he still had it! I'm not sure about the blue guitar, though...
He was originally training to be a doctor, and just did his music on the side. Then he made the switch to music full time. Despite making a roaring success out of it (he was apparently very popular in Germany, even though he didn't speak a word of the language and had to learn the lyrics phonetically), he had a big falling out with his parents over it and they pretty much broke off all contact. When he was the subject of a episode of "This Is Your Life" in the UK, they refused to participate. Strange people.
