Took me back. Love country. Lefty Frizzel was one of my favs. Learned to dance via the Jute box and his songs.

I LOVED IT!!!

i really enjoyed how burn's crafted the narrative so that "country music" was music of america, our country.

when i was a kid in the 1970s, i "discovered" bob wills and the texas playboys.

man, i was over the moon.

Wonderful, engaging series, not just for Country Music fans. I don’t know how long it will be available to stream, but IMO, it’s worth watching.

Peter Coyote's narration carries the show superbly.

Yeah, he's kind of uncolored sounding and doesn't have many distracting mannerisms.

I was surprised that Bob Wills was a bit of a ........ helping to ban some from of Opry.
Wonder when Keith will get in.....
