The West Wing of the Music Museum is dedicated to the collective world of Country Music. This episode celebrates that jukebox in the corner of the down home joint on Main St. of “Small Town U.S.A.”
You either grew up in a small town or wish you did. The best memories come from a town with nothing but good down-home people, churches, and cheap beer. Sure, there isn't much to do, but give us a dirt road, and we'll be perfectly content.
There are a few things that only people who grew up in a small town will understand. These songs sum up small-town life and the first loves, the beer, and the memories that come with it. - - - -
