Editorial Review:
Filmed in Nashville during on the 44th anniversary of the Grand Ole Opry, The Nashville Sound features over 40 of the greatest country performers singing and playing their greatest hits. Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, Johnny Cash, Jeannie C. Reilly and Charley Pride are just a few of the folks that belt it out live from the Opry stage. Interspersed among the performances are interviews with the stars, the fans and the music industry people, along with some great historic footage of 1969’s country music scene. Also featured are the trials of a young aspiring artist looking for his big break.
The Nashville Sound Reviews:
Nashville Sound 
2009-12-06 - GREAT PRODUCT!
FAST DELIVERY!
THANK YOU!
Great DVD!
2009-05-18 - The DVD has great footage of Dolly! She's singing My Blue Ridge Mountain Boy. The DVD is worth seeing and hearing her sing that if for nothing else.
Great
2008-06-11 - As a Native American and a retired Army Vet, I'm proud to say that buying country videos was one of the few best choices I've made because I've only listened to Oldies (Doo Wop). It's just so sad there isn't more videos out there of Country I've never heard of or forgot, especially singers like Lorrie Morgan, Becky Hobbs and several male singers, I'm now purchasing more country videos "LIKE THIS VIDEO" in particular which is great and I plan to visit the "church Street' in Orlando next time I'm there, thank You.
A waste of money and time 
2008-04-27 - SAVE your money and your time ! This is TERRIBLE ! ALOT of rap commercials ! Only about 5 minutes at the end is worth watching. If I could I'd return this ! Commercials, talking, and fans is all you see in this. If I could this would get rated 000000 ! This does not deserve one star, much less more . This is a REAL RIP OFF !!! Dina
GREAT REAL COUNTRY MUSIC
2007-11-12 - I've searched for so long for this DVD. Or any like it. I'm not through looking yet either. This one has just a few of the perfect shows I've seen in my youth featuring the performers that I idolized. And I still love very much. I will never get tired of OLD REAL COUNTRY music. And I'm afraid it's about to disappear. So I'm getting all that I can while the getting is good. It was a treat to see the part with Loretta bantering with her band. She was a funny lady. The portion with Johnny Cash: I had forgotten he was ever that young and handsome. Of course when he made that appearance on the Opry, we were all still screaming for Elvis and didn't want anyone to be better than Elvis. Well, I have to say, after seeing this again of Johnny Cash singing, he was an excellent singer. I never thought that in my young days. It is such a treat to have a record of Roy Acuff balancing his Fiddle Bow on his (I use to think) nose. I see now in this DVD he actually had it in a pipe of some sort he was holding in his mouth. It was brief, but I saw it. And to see Earl Scruggs and his sons, and Lester Flatt with his new band (at the time). I remember being so sad when they broke up. And one of Charley Pride's earliest appearances at the Opry. I remember one of his first shows where he came on stage and he saw people whispering to one another, and he just said, "yes, folks, it's true, I'm Charley Pride". Or something like that. And I think he told someone that he heard someone in the audience say very loudly, "he really is". The masses back then had to be convinced the guy singing those songs on the radio was a black man. Back then we called him a Negro. Which was meant with respect. And it was as opposed to what most southerners called him. He had them standing with an ovation at the end of the show. And then there was Bill Monroe out on stage doing his jig. It is just perfect, but just not enough of it. I have to have more. I really want to find one with Don Gibson performing. I just loved watching him pick his guitar. I read in one of the books I have that Elvis heard him picking and rehearsing one day at Studio B, where they both recorded. Elvis asked Chet Atkins (who produced for both of them) who that was and Chet told him and Elvis told Chet he wanted Chet to get Don to show him how he made those licks. I believe Chet had told him that Don called it 2-finger picking. Chet asked Don and Don told Chet to tell Elvis to get his own style of picking. Chet went back and told Elvis that he'd have to talk Don into teaching it to him. He never did.
Thanks to Amazon for all these wonderful CDs and DVDs I'm finding.
