With Guests From Jill Biden to Wynonna to Pat Benatar, Nashville Goes Crazy for Patsy Cline at Ryman Tribute Concert, Filmed for PBS
'Walkin' After Midnight,' a tribute to Patsy Cline filmed for PBS at the Ryman, drew singers including Grace Potter, Ashley McBryde and Mickey Guyton.
“Walkin’ After Midnight: The Music of Patsy Cline,” a concert held at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium Monday that will air on PBS later this year, was designed as a living, breathing testament to the vulnerability and big emotions of the country chanteuse whose sophistication matched her swagger. Seeing long-deceased Country Music Hall of Fame inductees Harlan Howard, Ferlin Huskey, Roy Clark, producer Owen Bradley, Dottie West and Loretta Lynn talking about their friend, her songs, ethics, talent and approach to life added dimension to Cline’s humanity. Like Tillis following her father, International Bluegrass Music Association Entertainers of the Year Dailey & Vincent paid homage with Bill Monroe’s “Blue Moon of Kentucky.” The Jordanaires were celebrated by five-voice a cappella group Home Free; they delivered a swing “Seven Days,” while the Isaacs recreated their lush harmonies throughout the evening.
