The documentary series Country Music has been airing on tv stations, and this week I streamed Episode 4 at the pbs.org website and did enjoy it, even though Im not a big C&W fan.

I am waiting to see what other FReepers think about the series before I waste any time downloading it.
This is the era I’m most interested in and watching the first half, I think it’s excellent.
