  • Multimillion-Selling Singer Crystal Gayle Has Performed Songs from a Wide Variety of Genres During Her Award-Studded Career, B
    MultiMillion-selling singer Crystal Gayle has performed songs from a wide variety of genres during her award-studded career, but she has never devoted an album to classic country music. Until now. You Don’t Know Me​ is a collection that finds the acclaimed stylist exploring the songs of such country legends as George Jones, Patsy Cline, Buck Owens and Eddy Arnold. The album might come as a surprise to those who associate Crystal with an uptown sound that made her a star on both country and adult-contemporary pop charts. But she has known this repertoire of hardcore country standards all her life. “This wasn’t a stretch at all,” says Crystal. “These are songs I grew up singing. I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time. “The songs on this album aren’t songs I sing in my concerts until recently. But they are very much a part of my history.” Each of the selections was chosen because it played a role in her musical development. Two of them point to the importance that her family had in bringing her to fame. You Don’t Know Me contains the first recorded trio vocal performance by Crystal with her singing sisters Loretta Lynn and Peggy Sue. It is their version of Dolly Parton’s “Put It Off Until Tomorrow.” “You Never Were Mine” comes from the pen of her older brother, Jay Lee Webb (1937-1996). The two were always close. Jay Lee was the oldest brother still living with the family when their father passed away.

  • A Guide to the Bill Arhos Collection of Austin City Limits
    A Guide to the Bill Arhos Collection of Austin City Limits 1974-2002 Collection 067 Descriptive Summary Creator: Arhos, Bill Title: The Bill Arhos Collection of Austin City Limits Dates: 1974-2002 Abstract: The Bill Arhos Collection contains documents and artifacts relevant to Austin City Limits and artists connected to the show, gathered by Bill Arhos, co-creator, executive producer, and program director. It includes press clippings, publicity materials, photographs, correspondence, galley proofs for the book Austin City Limits by Cliff Endres, and memorabilia. Identification: Collection 067 Extent: 2 boxes, 1 linear foot Language: English Repository: The Wittliff Collections, Texas State University Organizational History & Biographical Sketch Austin City Limits, a television program showcasing musicians in concert performances, was founded in 1974 by Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) affiliate station KLRU-TV in Austin, TX. The show’s creators were Bill Arhos, then program director, as well as Paul Bosner and Bruce Scafe, who subsequently produced and directed programs for the series. Their aim was to develop a locally produced program that could attract national attention through distribution to PBS affiliates. Capitalizing on the growing Austin music scene of the 1970s, Arhos received PBS funding for a pilot show featuring Willie Nelson and Family. Station executives across the country liked the pilot and funded filming for Austin City Limits first season, thirteen shows that were taped in 1975 and premiered in 1976. Austin City Limits continues to follow that filming schedule with each season taped during one calendar year and aired the next. The one-hour programs usually pair two musicians, each given thirty-minute segments in which to deliver an uninterrupted, concert-style performance to a studio audience.

Sponsored by The Valley Advocate, 93.9 The River, WGBY TV57 and JR Lyman Co. About the Program "The American Beauty Project" is a special tribute concert to the Grateful Dead's most important and best-loved albums, Working Man's Dead and American Beauty. In January 2007, an all-star lineup of musicians that Relix magazine called "a dream team of performers" gave the premier of this concert in front of an over-flowing crowd at the World Financial Center's Winter Garden in New York City. The New York Times' Jon Pareles wrote that the concert gave "New life to a Dead classic... and mirrored the eclecticism of the Dead," and a Variety review said that the event brought "a back- porch feel to the canyons of Gotham's financial district. The perf's real fire came courtesy of acts that like to tear open the original structures of the source material and reassemble the parts afresh - an approach well-suited to the honorees' legacy." Now, a select group of those performers, including Ollabelle, Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams, Catherine Russell, and Jim Lauderdale are taking the show on the road.
