Sinopsis
Long, long ago, a record didn't just reach the No. 1 spot - it resided there, sometimes for months. Songs That Topped the Charts captures the biggest country hits, many of which also became significant pop singles. Check out Leroy Van Dyke's Walk On By (19 weeks at No. 1); Stonewall Jackson's Waterloo; and the Browns' The Three Bells, a country and pop chart-topper. They don't cut 'em like that anymore.

La vida de Ray Charles es una alternancia de triunfos y fracasos personales que se suceden a lo largo de una dilatada y galardonada carrera en el mundo del espectáculo. Pero estamos hablando de un hombre que sintetizó sus luchas, su dolor y su oscuridad personal con la misma efectividad con la que supo fundir en su arte una miríada de estilos musicales: el jazz, el rhythm & blues, el rock & roll, el gospel y el country. Su historia tiene entonces un sentido muy distinto: la cadena de logros se transforma en el vibrante y conmovedor trayecto de un genio único con una visión propia que enseñó al mundo a escuchar música de una forma nueva. RAY es la biografía, nunca contada antes, de esa leyenda de la música americana que es Ray Charles. Se centra en el período más explosivo de la carrera de Charles, que comienza cuando este joven negro ciego se sube solo a un autobús en Florida y cruza el país para refinar su arte en la floreciente escena jazzística de Seattle.

Fifty years later, and he's still rattlin' the Devil's cage. Charlie Louvin can walk through a crowded mall and not attract attention. But it shouldn't be that way; the humble 83-year-old musician in the cowboy hat and jeans is a true American hero. To start, 50 years ago he and his brother recorded "Satan is Real," an album that shook up the music business. And the life he lived thereafter was pretty radical, too, from his military service to his country to his 61-year marriage to his induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame and Grand Ole Opry. On Friday, December 3, 2010 at the fooBAR in Nashville, we caught Charlie Louvin on stage, making music for his fans, celebrating the anniversary of that famous album. And we filmed the night for history's sake. This is the tribute he so richly deserves.
An aging country singer becomes irritated with the success of a popular young country singer. However, she is not yet ready to become yesterday's news.
Neil Hamburger is a two-bit stand-up with a bad comb-over--an aging, phlegmy jokester with a penchant for cheap celebrity jabs. He's also the brilliantly odd creation of Gregg Turkington, a decidedly more gifted comedian who has found a loyal cult following for his Tony Clifton-esque character. In this concert release, Hamburger performs a handful of twangy country tunes alongside the Too-Good-For-Neil-Hamburger Band, a name that speaks the truth: the back-up group includes veteran rockers Prairie Prince, David Gleason, and Atom Ellis.
Biopic del gran cantante de música country Johnny Cash. La historia comienza en Arkansas, en la época de la Gran Depresión. John R.

Cash se convirtió en el artista más en boga del momento, vendiendo incluso más que los Beatles.

In March 2005, Neil Young was diagnosed with a brain aneurysm. Four days before he was scheduled for a lifesaving operation, he headed to Nashville, where he wrote and recorded the country folk album Prairie Wind with old friends and family members. After the successful operation and recovery period, he returned to Nashville that August to play at the famed Ryman Auditorium, once again gathering together friends and family for this special performance.
The Eagles performed live for the first time in April 1994 after a fourteen-year-long hiatus. Their reunion album’s name was in reference to Don Henley’s quote after the band’s breakup in 1980, when he commented that they would only play together again “when Hell freezes over”. Recorded at the Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, California for an MTV special, the live sessions produced eleven tracks for the album, including a new acoustic version of “Hotel California”.
