Porter Wagoner RIP

Country singer Porter Wagoner died Sunday in Nashville at 80. Mr. Wagoner died from lung cancer.

If you don't know his work, I recommend his 2007 release, Wagonmaster.

Here's Mr. Wagoner with Dolly Parton from 1973.

And here is Mr. Wagoner on Letterman performing a tune from his recent album.
The back-up band is Marty Stuart and his Fabulous Superlatives

Yep, he was pretty cool.
