Opry Video Classics

Bought this for my grandfather when my grandmother passed. This series gave him weeks of joy and kept his mind off things. I borrowed after and was blown away at the great history documented. Awesome buy.

Films were thoroughly enjoyed by my father of 95 years old.

Very good old times from the 50 60 70 at the Opry lots of great music and signers

This 8 dvd boxed set to me, has the cream of Country music. Coming from Sydney, Australia & being a Rock & Roll fan of the late 50's & early 60's the main US Country artists that I knew were the crossover artists, Johnny Cash, Marty Robbins, Faron Young etc, I had heard of the Grand Ole Opry but never really knew much about it. All the dvds are extremely good quality & the later performances are in colour.This box set gave me a chance to see performances from artists that I had only heard singing their hits.The Browns, Ernest Ashworth, Don Gibson, Henson Cargill, Billy Carlisle,George Morgan, Jack Blanchard & Misty Morgan, Freddie Hart, Hank Locklin & David Houston.I was looking though the dvds individually & could not decide which ones to buy as they all had 15 live performances, & there were lots tracks on each of them that i wanted. It was easier to buy the complete set.I thought some of the clips would be out of "Second Fiddle To A Steel Guitar","Country Music On Broadway" & "The Leroy Van Dyke" TV series. I was pleased that they were all different performances.I am hoping that Time Life will hurry up & bring out more dvds of this quality, well worth the money.

I liked the variety of artist per disc. Great mini concert for each disc last about 1 hour. Marty Stuart gives a great history of the Opry and all the sponsors. Wonderful way to introduce the younger generation to true classic country. Good to see Willie Nelson clean cut and in a suit.

We love them. we watched them an enjoyed every song. this is a great collection. not just the music but video of each performance. I sang along to most of them. some I did not remember but most I sure did. my parents loved these songs and I grew up singing along . the box is nice, each dvd has its own plastic case with artwork theme of the 15 performances on the front and list of songs and artists listed on the back. The price is not cheap but for something that is such trip down memory lane, you cant beat it. I also bought the second in this set. Opry Video Classics 2 which has 8 more disks and all different songs.. have not received them yet but hope they arrive soon and are as great as these.

Each DVD only contains 15 performances but these are the best. The intro to each DVD also contains little Gems around the history of the songs. For instance Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You" is her farewell to Porter Waggoner when she left his show to go solo. It is also nice to note the lack of the glitzy "western" costumes on most performers and Willy Nelson in a suit and tie indescribable.

This DVD contains video clips from several venues, and of numerous great players. I purchased this video set by mistake, thinking it was the Larry Black produced series. I will say, that this set is period correct, in that the stars were filmed singing their hits, at the time the hits were big.I personally miss the camaraderie that is more evident on the Countrys Family Reunion set, but do not take it wrong~this is a true representation of the hitmakers of the day, and their most famous songs, performed by the hitmakers themselves.But, as I stated, the CFR is just more preferable and entertaining in my opinion.

I was hesitant to make my first online purchase but it came on time, in good condition and was a good price.

I bought this for my husband for Christmas and he has been listening every day to one of the videos ever since which are by different years. He really loves it as he loves country music. It is well packaged. It came on the day stated.

I bought it as a gift for my grandfather and he absolutely loved it! Definitely his favourite gift !!

This is a great collection of many of the great artists of country music. It is worth the purchase!

Great product
