Porter Wagoner (1927-2007)

Rest in peace.

My favorite quote comes from Porter's last trip to NYC this summer:

"The young people I met backstage, some of them were 20 years old. They wanted to get my autograph and tell me they really liked me....If only they knew how that made me feel - like a new breath of fresh air." (www.tennessean.com)

WKCR will likely be memorializing this great performer sometime soon - we'll keep you updated.
