Porter's broad smile, flashy costume and memorable song-is
the very image of a country music star. Indeed, he is a
veritable icon in the country music industry.
Porter's career has taken him from strumming a guitar in a
grocery store, in his hometown of West Plains, Missouri, to
singing on stages around the world. He would be the first
to tell you that the place he is proudest to perform is the
Grand Old Opry in Nashville, Tennessee.
His guitar playing and singing as a youthful grocery clerk
inspired the store owner to sponsor an early morning radio
show featuring Porter. The store owner's idea of drawing

Review about Porter Wagoner The Amen Corner | Reviewer: Lora
------ About the song Trouble In The Amen Corner performed by Porter Wagoner
I was just a little girl when I heard Porter Waggoner share the ballad 'Trouble in the Amen Corner.' I never forgot the song, nor the message ... nor the singer. May God bless Brother Porter as He welcomes a new member to His Heavenly choir!
I have an advanced promo copy of Wagonmaster and "Be A Little Quieter" appears as the 2nd track of the album. I believe it's the same track he recorded in the late 60's/early 70's. What a great song! At age 79 Porter proves he's still the king of honky tonkin'!
A "picture" of our need for God | Reviewer: Jamie Higdon
------ About the song Charley's Picture performed by Porter Wagoner
Very few songs, stories or pieces of art have ever penetrated into the core of man's terrible aloneness. This song is a snapshot of knowledge without release, or of emptiness and hunger while the banquet is in progress. There is a happy ending here. Every man staring at the dead Charley can answer the need.

------ About the album Soul Of A Convict performed by Porter Wagoner
the soul of a convict lyrics are excellent but are missing a cover song FOLSOM BRISON BLUES that was also released with the album in 1967.
One of the greats from one of the greatest! | Reviewer: James Hunnicutt
------ About the song Banks Of The Ohio performed by Porter Wagoner
Porter Wagoner is right up there with Hank Williams & Johnny Cash as being the greatest male country singer in my opinion and this but one of many examples of my proof
my dad use to sing this song to me when I was a little girl and he had just past away, I would like to obtain the words or a copy for his funeral.
It goes something like this
Hand me down my walking cane gotta catch the midnight train
All my sins are taken away.
If anyone could help I would be very grateful
good song | Reviewer: Anonymous
