recently, the practice has pretty much died out

The frontman of the Maccabees did a nice little whistling solo at their gig the other if that helps!

Haha, good topic, they may have already been covered but I can think of these two

you got me singing the blues - Guy Mitchell

Young Folks - Peter, Bjorn & John's, I find the whistling in this pretty addictive!

Is this the greatest whistler of them all?

I see from his Wikipedia entry that a) he's still alive and living in Australia, and b) he's described as a siffleur, perhaps a sign that the art of whisting has been accorded more respect in France. I recall that in Jean Renoir's French Cancan, Jean Gabin's star act at the Folies Bergère, at the beginning of the film anyway, is a whistler.
