Austin City Limits

The thread titled "Best Concert Movie" reminded me that I wanted to put in a little plug for the "Live in Austin, Texas" DVD series. These are archived episodes from the "Austin City Limits" TV show on PBS. Haven't seen much discussion about these, but the ones I own are all excellent:

Richard Thompson
John Hiatt
Delbert McClinton
Lucinda Williams

I just found out that one featuring Guy Clark is being rleased in March. Can't wait!

I haven't seen an Austin City Limits show that I didn't enjoy, and come to think of it, all of them have been fatastic. I had searched Amazon.com for these shows and only one or two are there. I just checked PBS.ORG (as a result of your post) and they have some 30+ titles. Thanks for the recommendation . . . off I go with my credit card . . .

You have inspired me to order Vol 1 Best of Sessions at West 54th. As I remember, I really enjoyed this showcase for artists. I love Austin City Limits and will be checking them out also. Thanks for sparking my interest in a great series.

I'm sure pbs saves its best shows for the pledge drive times. Last night that country western show was great. I should have dvr-ed it and zipped past the yacking.
