Our Take

SLIM WHITMAN 'The Best Of'

Slim Whitman, the legendary crooner with a voice as smooth as butter and a hairdo as slick as a greased pig, has finally compiled a collection of his greatest hits for our listening pleasure. With hits like "Indian Love Call" and "Rose Marie," this album is a trip down memory lane for those who remember the good old days when men wore suits and women wore poodle skirts.

Whitman's distinctive yodeling style is on full display here, sending shivers down your spine and making you want to dust off those cowboy boots and start line dancing like it's 1952. The twang of his guitar and the twinkle in his eye will transport you to a simpler time when life was just a honky-tonk bar and a jukebox full of Slim Whitman records.

But don't be fooled by the nostalgia trip, this album holds up well in the modern era too. Whitman's timeless vocals and catchy tunes are just as captivating now as they were back in the day. So put on your Stetson hat, pour yourself a glass of whiskey, and let Slim Whitman serenade you into the sunset.

Overall, 'The Best Of' is a must-listen for any fan of classic country music or anyone looking for a bit of old-school charm in their music collection. So saddle up, partner, and get ready for a wild ride with Slim Whitman at the helm. Yeehaw!

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.
