i saw Mart y Stuart in a club in Greenville SC– club would hold over 1500 or more, but it was only about 100 folks showed up– he played like it was packed– he is a gifted a gracious singer.
does anyone know the man on the left who is singing harmony with mel? his performance is masterful — especially at the initial stage where mel’s vocals have been reduced for this impressive mystery singer.
Country radio plays what is produced which is junk here. Very few have any control over their music. For real original music, Austin, TX is the place. Branson is where the real country stars go to perform unless it’s on the Opry here. Marty Stuart has a great show on RFD TV, but it’s not primetime like it should be.
A GREAT entertainer. Saw him in Branson — what a great show! My family won the tickets in a silent auction…I thought the show wouldn’t be much….BOY WAS I SURPRISED!!! WE LOVED HIM!!! I guess I can honestly say it was the BEST Branson show I ever saw….and I’ve seen many since then. Love your music, Mel! — Sharon, McAlester, OK
Well Mel if you read this Little Bobby Whitton and I play music every time we get a chance, and not because he is family but he is the best to me, and bryan his son say’s hello.

Seen Like Branson is the place to be for Real Country Music!
Living in the Nashville Tennessee Area, where Country Music has seemed to have Died!

I Love Him!!
He was one of my parents favorite along with
the stars in that era: Cash, Wagoner, Jennings, Reeves, Thompson, Williams, etc.
I recall seeing him in the 70s on variety shows and I enjoyed him.
omgosh when I lived in branson mo.
his grand daughter ashley and I were best friends. we were in kindergarden and first grade together.
The back up singers: The guy, is he not the same guy who’s one of the backing vocals on the Opry? He looks very familiar.
Fiddlers from left to right are: Paul Justice, Little Red Hayes, Wes Westmoreland, Earnie Reed
