I was a fifth grader in 1972 when I started to do ventriloquism. Willie and Lester were my inspirations. I studied hard to do what Willie did because his lip control was impeccable. In fact, I got to meet the guy who carved Lester a few years later when I went shopping as a teenager for a professional figure (which I still have). I did vent up until my mid-twenties. I might get him out again (I named him WIllie, by the way). Thank-you, Willie Tyler, for being someone who inspired me as a kid almost 11 years old at the time, to do my very best.
@@stephenadamsmusicalinterpr4203 I just wonder if Jeff Dunham had ever met Willie Tyler, because Willie Tyler was the first venquilotrist that I had started watching!
Willie, saw you & Lester on The Jeffersons (rerun) the other day. Thought, man, what is this guy doing today! You are great! I remember you from back then & still great today! Bless U for the entertainment you have given me over the years.!! You're great.!
I remember Willie Tyler and Lester back in the days with other up-and-coming ventriloquists like Jay Johnson and Bob if "Soap" fame in every HBO specials.
Ohhh! Willie Tyler and Lester! I think( I’m not sure ) that they were around before Jeff Dunham had made an appearance and Willie Tyler was one of the great venquilotrist too! I just wonder if Willie Tyler had any other venquilotrist dummies that he had in his act! I’m not saying that Lester wasn’t good( which Lester WAS good) I’m just asking if Willie Tyler had any other dummies with him!😏😏

"Don't you understand what you're saying?" My favorite part of the routine! 👍
The Best Ventriloquist act ever of all time. Unbelievable Gift. Wow! I grew up watching this and still amazed.
Edgar Berman was far better but he was good too.
Willie is a favorite, to be sure. The likes of Mr. Tyler and Jeff Dunham have kept this great art form going.
I grew up watching Paul winchell & Jerry Mahoney but Willy tyler and Lester are my all time favorites.

And his comedy was always so wholesome!! They don't make talent like this anymore. What you got now Jeff Dunham?!??! Dunham isn't funny like this!!
I remember being gifted a Lester doll for Christmas one year in the 1980s. I had a lot of fun trying my hand at the art of ventriloquism ❤
