(4-CD LP-sized box set with 36-page book) Ol" Porter may be a joke in some people"s eyes, but he was very much for real here. These are his early recordings when he was the last great voice of the hillbilly era. This is raw, uncompromising country music from one of the masters. All of Porter"s previously unavailable hits like Satisfied Mind, Bad News Travels Fast, Eat Drink And Be Merry, I Thought I Heard You Call My Name, Your Old Love Letters, Misery Loves Company and Company"s Coming are here in their original versions, as well as 20 unissued sides, and the complete contents of rare original LPs like A Slice Of Life and A Satisfied Mind. This makes the case for Porter Wagoner as one of the great country voices - and one of the great country songwriters too.
