I used to watch Austin City Limits long ago, the first show I remember watching featured Gatemouth Brown and Vassar Clements, they performed separately and then took the stage together at the end. It was amazing, I watched many nights after that but for many years now if I turn it on I watch for two minutes and wind up shaking my head with a sick feeling as I turn it off. Ray Price is still performing but he would never be on ACL, country music is as dead as the culture that first produced it. I am old enough to remember Hank Sr., Ernest Tubb, Lefty, Ray Price when Crazy Arms was a brand new hit, there ain’t no mo’ real country.

Country music by Texas musicians is very popular now all over the world. I recommend you check out Radio Free Texas online. I think you'll be hooked!
