He of the '80s TV sales novelties, like the disco trimmer and the pocket fisherman...Slim Whitman's Greatest Hits.

R.I.P., Mr. Whitman.

I went with some friends to see him "in concert" about 20 years ago. Pretty good showman.

May he Rest In Peace.

Was introduced to "Mars Attacks" yesterday after learning of his passing. I'm going to have to see that entire movie and other things that he has done.
