long-running PBS series Austin City Limits, LIVE FROM AUSTIN TEXAS is a perfectly chosen 15-song trawl through Guy Clark's back catalogue. Standards like Texas Cookin' and The Carpenter sit next to fan favorites like Homegrown Tomatoes and Texas 1947, as well as haunting story songs like Immigrant Eyes. Clark's singing and playing are in top form throughout, as is his crack band.n

Austin City Limits in the mid '80s when the budding country star dedicated his whole set to Owens. Moved, Owens met Yoakam and found himself inspired to return to the stage almost a decade after quitting the music business. One of these comeback shows is captured on this fantastic DVD as part of the venerable LIVE FROM AUSTIN TX series and features Yoakam duetting with his mentor on Under Your Spell Again.The time off clearly did Owens good, as he seems spry as ever on this eleven song set (also recorded for Austin City Limits). He tears through a set of all his major hits, including Tiger By the Tail, Act Naturally, Together Again, and Love's Gonna Live Here. Owens also proves how close his Bakersfield recipe is to rock & roll with covers of Chuck Berry and Eddie Cochran. His voice sounds great, the band rips, and he delivers the material like its Carnegie Hall in 1966.(Note: The DVD features 5.1 surround sound and previously unaired performances.)n

elder statesman of insurgent country, and it was easy to forget that he once conned his way to the top of the country charts. This fantastic live set--taped in September 1986 for Austin City Limits after GUITAR TOWN had made him the decade's most unlikely country star--reveals an energetic young hillbilly with a heart of pure rock & roll relishing his new status on Main Street. Earle and his backing band, the Dukes, rip through a set featuring GUITAR TOWN standards such as Hillbilly Highway and Fearless Heart, tracks off the soon-to-be-released EXIT O, and a menacing cover of Bruce Springsteen's State Trooper. Earle's solo performance of his own My Old Friend the Blues, however, is the show stealer here, and on its own is worth the sticker price.n

Additional notes
Album Notes: The LIVE FROM AUSTIN, TX, series scores another win with this 1981 concert set from country icon Kris Kristofferson. Released in 2006, just in time for the Kristofferson revival (the tribute album THE PILGRIM, which featured several high-profile artists covering the artist's songs, was released in the same year), the disc features the legend at his singing-and-songwriting best. Not only are the performances outstanding, but the set list includes many of Kristofferson's finest compositions, including the yearning "Help Me Make It Through the Night," the melancholic "Casey's Last Ride," and the perennial favorite "Me and Bobby McGee." The concert, recorded for the legendary TV show AUSTIN CITY LIMITS, is also available on DVD.
