I am a bit bitter about this yodelling business--as a younger person, I was quite the yodeller(not that many wanted to hear it, and, I warn you, it doesn't get you far with the ladies) but I have mostly lost the falsetto either from age or lack of use, and I can manage a yodel only on certain days, and then only with great effort--the thing is that I can always hit the notes themselves in my full voice, so go figure--

Anyway, Dicho and I have agreed that yodelling moved into country music by way of Hawaiian music--the best yodellers having been the likes of Rose Moe--who performed in an old Hawaiian style that may have been taught there as early as the 1870's, but don't get me started--
