Our Take

Ah, Slim Whitman - the man with the voice that could clear a room faster than a student loan repayment notice. His latest release, "Five Classic Albums," is a collection of timeless hits that will have you reaching for the volume knob to turn it all the way down.

Kicking things off with his signature twang, Whitman croons his way through tracks like "Rose Marie" and "Indian Love Call" with all the enthusiasm of a man ordering plain toast at a fancy brunch. But don't let his lacklustre delivery fool you - there's a certain charm to his flat, nasally tones that can only be described as, well, unique.

As the album progresses, Whitman delves into more upbeat numbers like "Secret Love" and "I Remember You," but unfortunately, his attempts at high energy fall flatter than a botched soufflé. It's as if he's trying to channel the spirit of Elvis Presley, but ends up closer to a deflated balloon at a birthday party.

Overall, "Five Classic Albums" is a mixed bag of nostalgic tunes that will have you scratching your head in confusion one moment and tapping your toes the next. Slim Whitman may not be everyone's cup of tea, but for those looking for a classic slice of country music with a side of eccentricity, this album is sure to hit the spot. Just be sure to have a healthy dose of irony on hand to wash it all down.

About the artist

Slim Whitman

SLIM WHITMAN: The Yodeling Cowboy-Crooner Who Defies Genre Boundaries Slim Whitman, the enigmatic yodeling cowboy-crooner, has been a staple in the music industry for over six decades. With a unique vocal style that effortlessly blends country, folk, and western swing, Whitman has carved out a niche for himself that is truly one-of-a-kind. Born in Tampa, Florida, Whitman first made a name for himself in the 1950s with hits like "Indian Love Call" and "Rose Marie." His distinctive falsetto voice and penchant for yodeling quickly set him apart from his peers, earning him a loyal fan base and a reputation as a true musical maverick. Despite his success, Whitman has always remained humble and down-to-earth, eschewing the trappings of fame in favor of a simple life spent on his ranch in Middleburg, Florida. This authenticity shines through in his music, with heartfelt lyrics and soulful melodies that speak to the human experience in a way that is both universal and deeply personal. Whitman's influence can be felt across a wide range of genres, from country to pop to rockabilly. Artists as diverse as Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and Michael Jackson have cited him as an inspiration, proving that his music transcends the constraints of time and genre. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a newcomer to his music, one thing is certain: Slim Whitman is a true musical icon whose talent knows no bounds. So saddle up, put on your cowboy boots, and prepare to be transported to a world where the yodel reigns supreme and the spirit of the open plains is alive and well.
