Jay notes another milestone as the PBS program Austin City Limits is about to begin its 50th season. The live music experience has produced some famous performances and is a beloved destination for many artists mid-tour. Each season features the top 13 meticulously documented performances from a season of 24-30 concerts. Artists are allowed to play whatever song they want and are given permission to participate in the mix and edit of the production. The past fifty years have brought a who’s who to the stage and we listen to a handful of past performances.

Songs:

Kenrick Lamar - “For Free, Live from Austin City Limits”

Flaco Jimenez - “Ranchero, Live from Austin City Limits”

Eric Johnson - “Cliffs of Dover, Live from Austin City Limits”
