Why he might be annoying:

    He is sometimes confused with Porter Wagoner.
    For all his success, he scored only one top ten country hit (one-hit-wonder).
    His show tended to only air on local affiliates, resulting in his not being as well remembered as some of his contemporaries.

    He was an avid outdoorsman.
    At age 19, he became Columbia Records' youngest recording star.
    He appeared on the Grand Ole Opry from 1960 well into the 1970s.
