“The Carroll County Accident” #92 (#2 country) 2/8/1969

Occasionally the twangiest country records would make it onto the pop charts. This one from Porter Wagoner was a Top 5 on the country side a month earlier. Porter’s trademark was to wear the flashiest rhinestone suits possible on stage. He also gave Dolly Parton her first big break. She was a long-time regular on his TV show, where this video is from. Check out Buck Trent and yes, his electric banjo.
