Everyone knows Elvis Presley’s In the Ghetto and A Little Less Conversation. But who wrote those songs? That was Mac Davis, and almost no one has heard of him. He shares this fate with dozens of other songwriters who have been responsible for massive hits. Coincidentally, many of them live in Nashville, Tennessee – though this documentary reveals that isn’t quite as accidental as it seems.

Relive some of the Grand Ole Opry's greatest moments with this collection of 15 vintage duets featuring performers such as Patsy Cline and Bobby Lord singing "(Remember Me) I'm the One Who Loves You." Other highlights include "Jackson" by Johnny Cash and June Carter; "After the Fire Is Gone" by Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn; "Let It Be Me" by Skeeter Davis and Bobby Bare; and "The Ceremony" by George Jones and Tammy Wynette.
Back in 1961, the Country Music Association founded the Country Music Hall of Fame to recognize the top artists, songwriters, broadcasters and executives in the business. Hall of Fame set honors the illustrious Class of '73 - Chet Atkins and Patsy Cline - with Chet's instrumental hit Yakety Axe and Patsy's Imagine That. Johnny Cash appears twice, while Willie Nelson in Mr. Record Man shows his rarely seen pre-outlaw, clean-cut side.
Nothing says "I Love You" like a country song. And no singer ever expressed these sentiments better than Dolly Parton in I Will Always Love You, one of the highlights from Love Songs. Patsy Cline and Ferlin Husky address the pain of separation. Sexy Conway Twitty gets right down to business in I See the Want To In Your Eyes. As for Ray Price - he make a failed romance sound mighty pretty in For the Good Times.
