Karl Denver (16 December 1931 — 21 December 1998) was a Scottish singer, who, with his trio had a series of UK hit singles in the early 1960s. Most famous of these was a 1961 version of 《Wimoweh》, which showed off Denver's falsetto yodelling register. He reached the Top 20 with his first five yodel-based singles. 　　Denver was born Angus Murdo McKenzie in Springburn, Glasgow and was well travelled by the time he took up singing, having had a previous career in the British Merchant Navy. He also had a country music influence, having lived in Nashville, Tennessee for a short time before being deported from there as an illegal immigrant in 1959. In the US, he adopted the new name that he retained for the remainder of his singing career. 　　In the early 1960s he formed a trio which included Kevin Neil (born 25 July 1931, Manchester, Lancashire; died 13 March 2010, Blackley, Manchester) and Gerry Cottrell (born Gerard Cottrell, 18 December 1933, Manchester, Lancashire; died 24 November 2006, at Trafford General Hospital, Urmston, Manchester). 　　Denver's song, 《Never Goodbye》was an entry in A Song for Europe in 1962. In 1963, he appeared in the film Just for Fun, along with Bobby Vee, the Vernons Girls, and various other American and British pop music acts.
