I looked up Marty Stewart because I hadn't heard of him. If you YouTube him you get his history.
This documentary is the history of Country Music according to Marty Stewart, and the styles of music and people he likes to the exclusion of others.
Burns abdicated his responsibility to to justice to ALL of Country Music artists. Many artists besides Jim have been "short shifted"
In 2013 PBS thought George Jones was "The Greatest County Singer"
My efforts to correct the record with PBS and Ken Burns were ignored back then as well as my requests to get Jim Reeves the recognition he so richly deserves.
Episode 8 is televised tonight. So far Jim has gotten no real coverage.
Lazy, incompetent, researchers. A disgrace!
This film is not worth buying.
