Our Take

Ah, the dulcet tones of Porter Wagoner grace our ears once again in "A Rare Slice of Country." This album is like a time capsule back to the golden age of country music, where rhinestones were king and twang ruled the airwaves.

Wagoner's distinctive voice shines through on each track, transporting listeners to a honky-tonk bar in Nashville circa 1965. The production may be a bit dated by today's standards, but there's a charm and authenticity to the sound that is hard to resist.

Songs like "The Cold Hard Truth" and "Confessions of a Broken Man" showcase Wagoner's storytelling prowess, with lyrics that cut straight to the heart. The instrumentation is classic country, with plenty of steel guitar and fiddle to satisfy even the most hardcore traditionalists.

But it's not all serious business on this album - tracks like "She's the Devil in Disguise" and "Drink Up and Be Somebody" inject a healthy dose of wit and humour into the mix. Wagoner's playful delivery and cheeky lyrics are a reminder that country music doesn't always have to take itself too seriously.

Overall, "A Rare Slice of Country" is a delightful throwback to a bygone era of music, with Wagoner's charisma and talent shining through on every track. So grab a bottle of bourbon, kick back, and let the sounds of Porter Wagoner transport you to a simpler time.
