That's the usual criticism of Burns' documentaries - particularly with music subjects. I know his Jazz doc had similar issues with omissions - especially the last several decades of jazz which got a single episode or less. As if jazz stopped evolving or being important then. I will be interested to catch this one though. I probably wouldn't mind if he left out the last 30 or so years of country music for this one...

Now your patrons have all left you in the red. Your low rent friends are dead. This life can be very strange.
