 Nashville, TN - Gordon Mote joined a stellar cast of artists in the first Academy of Country Music Honors concert held at the Musicians Hall of Fame in Nashville Wednesday, September 17th. He honored his friend, the late Porter Wagoner, by performing some of his signature songs in the tribute to the Country Music Hall of Fame member, who was awarded the Cliffie Stone Pioneer Award posthumously. Other artists appearing included LeAnn Rimes, Amy Grant, Joe Nichols and Connie Smith. Gaither Homecoming audiences are familiar with Gordon Mote's spot-on imitation of the Wagoner, and he relayed stories, cracked jokes and sang songs in Porter Wagoner's voice, including his trademark hisses. His songs included "Satisfied Mind," "Carroll County Accident" and "Green, Green Grass of Home." Gordon was thrilled to perform in a tribute to the late Country Music Hall of Fame member: It was an honor to work with a legend like Porter Wagoner and to be his friend. It was especially great when he told me that I had been instrumental in his decision to accept Christ. What an unforgettable experience to be asked to tell some 'Porter stories' and to sing his music at this event. |
