Ray Scott - Penn State Football Joe Paterno
Review by Gregory Giordano
Ray Scott's album Penn State Football Joe Paterno is a heartfelt tribute to the legendary coach who led the Nittany Lions to glory for over four decades. With his rich baritone voice and soulful delivery, Scott captures the essence of Paterno's leadership, integrity, and legacy, weaving together a collection of songs that celebrate both the man and the team he built.
From the opening track "We Are Penn State" to the closing ballad "The Last Time We Saw Joe", Scott's album is a powerful and poignant tribute to Paterno's life and career. The songs range from rousing anthems that capture the excitement of game day to reflective ballads that honor Paterno's character and values.
One standout track is "The Lion's Den", a driving rock song that celebrates the fierce determination and spirit of the Penn State football team. Another standout is "The Paterno Way", a tender ballad that pays homage to Paterno's unwavering commitment to doing things the right way, both on and off the field.

- From back cover: This album was supposed to be about Joe Paterno and Penn State Football. One a man, the other an institution. Two separate entities, right? Well, not exactly. You see, there are many who believe that both are institutions, each responsive to the other's needs. And while one has enjoyed an occasional flirtation with some would-be homewrecker from time to time (the Pittsburgh Steelers, the New England Patriots). Penn State and Paterno have been together now for more than 25 years. Maybe that's why they're so successful (94-18-1). They're a family, complete with "uncles" - five staff members have been around for a total of 121 years - and their young lions spring off a scrimmage line like no other team in college football. Listen now as future and former greats give their personal insights into the "family" that played together. Listen to the play-by-plays of some of the greatest moments. Joe Paterno and Penn State Football. A man, - a family, - an institution.
