One of the most unique country music stylists of all time, Slim is still a star, particularly outside the United States. In 2010 a new album, called 'Twilight on the Trail', was released featuring brand new material. -- His first decade as a recording artist is chronicled here, starting with his earliest recordings for RCA in 1949 and including all of his Imperial recordings until 1959. Several stellar performances see their first issue, and many are reissued on CD for the first time. Slim Whitman's songbook was full of country standards, pop classics and traditional ballads, and he gave them all his unique imprint.
In total, there are 163 recordings from the groundbreaking sides cut in Shreveport in the early Fifties through to the smoother, Nashville sessions later in the decade. Included are such classics as Casting My Lasso Towards The Sky, Love Song Of The Waterfall, Indian Love Call, North Wind, Secret Love, I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen, Rose Marie, Cattle Call, Serenade, and many, many others.
