Kat, I had the great honour to play on a show with Montana Slim a few years ago. He was probably in his 90s (or late 80s by then) and was still a wonderful singer. He rarely used the nickname given to him by a Chicago radio station many years ago and usually went by his real name of Wilf Carter. He was a real cowboy and told the audience about his ranch days in Alberta. I remember also that he was an amazing yodeler and showed total respect for the audience. I believe he passed on last year.
