At least we still have his recordings to defeat Martians.

Cheers!

My condolences to anyone who actually ever listened to his music beyond the snippets that kept repeating in that infomercial that defined syndicated television in the seventies...

And don't forget the KTel compilations.

I love Slim Whitman. If you forget the commercials and just listen to his records, they are great.
