Its sad that music like this has all but died in the mainstream of todays so called pop. I was 5 years old when this stuff was comming out and I feel I was some what to young to remember a lot of it. Its sad that there are very few traditional country artist out there . Maby if the producers and money men didnt worry about how a person looks and focused on true talent and weather a person has a voice and can sing , things would be diffrent. Just my humbal opinion Pat

Stephen-Thanks for the post. Sure bringes back memories to me. I played with a very good country band in around 1967, with a great singer, and we played that and many other great country classics every night. Those were special years, and you're right, good stuff......al.

Thanks for the video. I remeber as a young lad watching the Porter Waggoner show, the Ernest Tubb show and the Buck Owens show. I just do not remember the Wilburn Brothers show but I wish I did. It is a shame you cannot get good country today from these stars of today, that is the high 90% of them. I really enjoy the RFD channel since they show somw of thos old television shows from years gone by.

Paul-Sorry you missed all those Wilburn shows. I watched every of of them, and enjoyed all of Hal Rugg's fine steel playing, on both tunings.

It was a pleasure to watch him.The Wilburn Bros. ALWays featured one Steel Solo on every show, usually on C6, if my memory serves me well. Those were the "Good old days", NOW these are "The good old days".....al.

Paul, these vintage Country Music shows were "syndicated" not on major networks, i.e. NBC, ABC, CBS, etc. so, they weren't shown in a lot of areas. That may be why you don't remember it, it may not have been aired in your "market".
