Back in 1979 I played bass for Johnny White on a couple of road trips and worked the Penny circuit around the Boston area. One of the greatest yodel acts of all time, Johnny never seemed to get the recognition he so richly deserved. He was a fine singer all the way around and in my opinion, easily rivaled his contemporary WWVA Saturday Night Jamboree regular, yodeler Kenny Roberts. Johnny also appeared as a guest on that radio show many times. This is the first time I've heard him in 40 years and I must say he sounds every bit as good as I remember him. He hasn't lost a lick.
I remember Johnny from the late 50's when he and his brother had a band and played in Billerica MA. Johnny and his brother's band played at my wedding in Stoneham in 1959, and later I had the chance to see him perform in Toronto. Nice to see him again, though he's lost a little weight. :) I used to like when he sang like Hank Snow., would love to see that again.
Yodelling seems very therapeutic and especially listening to Johnny White it relaxes one immensely. I find it very fascinating how some folk yodel so well! Absolutely superb to listen to him!
I Just Had to Come Back Again After Listening to Many Yodelers on UA-cam The Last Month, 'This Cat, Johnny White' is Absolutely Accomplished & Proficient. Incredibly SUPER with a Cool Sense of HUMOR! Johnny White is MOST DEFINITELY One of The BEST YODELERS with a BROAD SCOPE of STYLES & He Shows & Educates You About 'Em! Thanks Johnny White! SUPER NICE JOB!
I worked with Johnny in Billerica, Mass. at a place called The Lakeside Lounge. My band was "Country Revolution". Johnny had an amazing ability to warm up a room with his talent. It was a pleasure to have worked with him share in his music. ......Bill Louvat
i too love this video---i really enjoy listening to this yodelin' -- my kind of music---thank you very much for posting this video...many are listening to this right now...you get ''total'' thumbs - up.
LOVE THIS. I yodel too. tee hee. My first public singing was at a Radio HK contest with my ukelele "I wanna be a Cowboys' sweetheart" (a la Patti Page). I came 2nd. Sweet memories, a lifetime ago.
The drummer's head bobbing has me mesmerized..Does he sing songs with words and yodel like Jimmy Rodgers?He's good .... Is he still alive? I hope so.... We need yodeling more than ever.
It sure was nice seeing Johnny on this video, when I was a kid my parent's (back in the early 1970's)went to go see him somewhere in MA and they bought is 8 track. Well I listen to that all the time and just loved his style. Loved to see him in concert. Cheers, Scott
I'm just amazed by this wonderful talent.....so at 61yrs of age I'm taking lessons...here's how it's going.. yodel.. yodel..yodeleehee..yeehaah...how was that?😜😳😁
WOW, what a talented yodeler. This video was amazing. How can a person find out where he is performing. This Admiral travels a lot so I'd like to catch his show. Thanks for posting Joe Black, & God Bless.
Johnny White- WOW! I Think Yodeling is Gonna Be The RAGE- I'm Not Being Facetious!! To Yodel in Different Keys So as to Keep The Falsetto-Break in Any Range, Gets a '10!' The Band is Great- The 'DRUMMER is ABSOLUTELY On TOP of IT!' ahh-- "Doesn't Miss 1-BEAT!" Guitar Great! VERY, VERY IMPRESSIVE!! Thanks for POSTING!!
Kerry Christensen from Utah is great yodeler also and has yodeled in Disney movies and travels to dates all over the US. I'd like to see him in one of these contests.
I think this is good, but i love Laura Downing from Australia, and the German or Dutch, too. They all have their own style. A young senior cowgirl Fresno, Cal
still watching this man do his stuff...lol I noticed a few days ago...the drummer guy....what the hell is he DOING (half way thru the clip)....watch his face and mouth! LOL!
Been on a yodeling kick, wow this guy's the best American yodeler I've heard. If you dig this, check out Oech's die Dritten, Takeo Ischi and the king himself, Franzl Lang. :)
Great! Is this the same Johnny White who teamed during the '60s with Bob Blum in Kansas City? Indeed the Johnny White on Fortune (1950) with Skeets McDonald (of "Tattoed Lady" fame) as vocalist was a different artist!
his name is John Leblanc in French leblanc means the white .that's how he has the stage name Johny white said my grandmother I'd like to know we're he is myself he's my grandfather.

I have known Johnny since I was a little girl I am now 77. My dad was his milkman way back then. He is a very kind man and a fantastic yodeler!
We can certainly do with more of this performer's talent.
