- An exceptional sample of Sourdough's yodeling prowess. Shot at the historic Sutter Creek (CA) theatre, Decenber 2007.
Yodeling Bill - By Sourdough Slim
Way up in the high Sierras lived a mountaineer listen to my story won’t you lend an ear. He had the sweetest yodel, the canyons he did fill. He became a legend, his name was Yodeling Bill.
He became a legend, his name was Yodeling Bill.
He had a couple billy goats, he had a herd of cows, But he kept his pride and joy in a shed behind the house. It was a real ripsnortin’ gurglin’ whiskey still, you ought of heard Bill Yodel when he’d get his fill.
Now when he got a hankering to paint the town what a hunk of man he was listen to that sound. He drove the ladies crazy with his magic trill, when old Bill would yodel they’d really get a thrill.
Little Kids they’d follow him, gather at this feet, hoping that old Bill would give them all a yodeling treat. Candy canes and sugar plums to little Jack and Jill couldn’t hold a candle to a yodel from old Bill.
Bill lived a long and happy life his yodel served him well, but at the age of 99 death finally rang his nell. As old Bill was heading over that great divide, he let out a yodel when he reached the other side!
Sutterjack, you did a terrific job of capturing the essence of Sourdough Slim on that video. Thank you very much for posting it.

I've watched this a dozen times or more, it's just plain fun.

Wow...I only realise after watching like a million times that he is yodelling in a yodel...

I am astounded. Being a singer who can't yodel, I know how difficult and impressive this is.
Sourdough slim you are brilliant
That was freaking awesome!!!! Amazing!
I think I saw this fellow performing at the International Date Festival in Indio - I remember he sang "Strawberry Roan" about as well as it could be sung, but I didn't know he could yodel, boy can he!
I've heard Sourdough do this number a few times in concert, but I was fortunate to tape this one--he was is flying fine form on guitar and his yodeling lungs were on fire!
Well thank you so much for capturing this.. he is so talented

@joffercalifornia thanks for the kind words--I've heard him perform "Yodeling Bill" about 5 times and this is my favorite--I think he had a double expresso before he hit the stage!--his energy was very high and the audience was great----Sourdough is always great--truly the last of the vaudeville cowboys!
