Tnn's `American Music Shop' Brings Top Performers Together
July 03, 1993|By Wayne Bledsoe, Scripps-Howard News Service.
NASHVILLE - On a network filled with music, "The American Music Shop" stands out.
Nearly every show of the Nashville Network's "American Music Shop" (9 p.m. and 1 a.m. Tuesdays, TNN) is an event: Country diva Emmylou Harris performs with new star Trisha Yearwood; legendary singer-songwriter John Prine trades songs with upcoming singer-songwriter John Wesley Harding; young country star Dwight Yoakam picks with bluegrass great Ralph Stanley; Ireland's foremost band, the Chieftains, performs with Ricky Skaggs and Chet Atkins.
It's a show where individual music artists perform together, often for the first time, backed up by some of the best session players in music.
On one recent show, the host was Nanci Griffith, and it includes some of Griffith's favorite songwriters-Janis Ian, Townes Van Zandt, Jerry Jeff Walker and Frank Christiansen.
Backstage, at a television studio in Opryland, there is a happy buzz. The artists joke, eat and prepare for their parts on the show, while the artists' management and TNN employees keep things moving. On the soundstage, the house band runs through the night's numbers.
"American Music Shop" premiered in March 1990. The show's creator and executive producer, Brian O'Neill, says the idea was to make each week's musical host a person known to most country music fans, then slip in lesser known talented artists-most often people whom the host liked. That way, he says, both the audience and the artists win.
The show, TNN's fourth most popular program, seems to be a particular favorite among other musicians.
It doesn't hurt that the members of the house band have followings in their own right.
Led by master violinist, guitarist, mandolinist Mark O'Connor, the band includes Jerry Douglas, a man who has nearly reinvented the dobro; guitarist Brent Mason; bassist Glen Worf; drummer Harry Stinson; and keyboardists John Jarvis and Matt Rollings.
"In developing the show, I sold the network on getting the very best possible house band that we could get," O'Neill says.
"And that was going to be part of the draw for the show-at least from the artist's perspective."
O'Connor, probably the most popular session musician in Nashville at the time, was thrilled with the prospect.
He says the show offered the first chance for television audiences to get a look at how Nashville's studio musicians work.

Doug Kershaw is the showman of all showman! He's fantastic.
I missed out on Doug Kershaw (2023) showing in TX, last year, I didn't know him, it is a shame for my uneducated and limited eyes.
does anyone else realize how absolutely fantastic this event is? having all these fiddle players playing the same song, but, all in their unique style? this should have millions of views!
AWESOMENESS
Vassar's the coolest. Period.
The American Music Shop, The Texas Connection, and The Grand Ole Opry.... 1990s country was the reason I got into playing, singing, and writing Country Music. I'll never let it die.
Came here for Kershaw but they were all a treat. Kershaw admired each one in turn. is he so humble? amazing.
I love Dough Kershaw, he is the coolest dude...even today he is so handsome. God bless you/family.
Just heard Michael Cleveland do this tune at the Cowichan Bluegrass Festival. I’ll bet he could add yet another amazing addition to this incredible collection of fiddlers!
He's great, just heard him❤
I don't know if you could get any more TALENT on that stage...... Wow.
Reminds me of home!❤
I'm only 22 and I am literally so entertained by all these guy's they are great,everbody is different but all top notch👌😁
I just get so thrilled when I hear such wonderful harmonys!!!!!🌹🙌🙌🙌🙏👼💋💋💋🇺🇸💍🌺🌿☎️🎇🎆🐝🐬💝💍❤️❤️❤️
Best fiddle players so far. Thanks!
Doug is so cool I love to watch him play. Pull the starter chord and turn him loose.
ha ha
Greatest assembly of Fiddle Players ever.
And you gotta love Doug Kershaw!!!
Fantastic. Cannot get any better than this! Ya'll dun GOOD!
That Classical training gives O' Connor an edge in technique and intonation but I love the way Kershaw isn't afraid to get atonal, but I think Gimble was the most inventive and tasty
Mark O'Connor is easily the most "polished" of the bunch.
Johnny Gimble was very bright and jazzy as always.
Charlie Daniels was raw and gritty.
And Kershaw was clearly having a blast and making it all look so damn _easy!_
All in all, I couldn't ask for a better lineup of fiddle players, all doing what they do best!
Never really heard Daniels cut loose before.. I think he's a lot better than he thinks he is. All outstanding musicians.. super classy and tastefully done!
Lots of folk don't know it but Charlie played the fiddle on Hank Jr's,Family Tradition in 79
If you've heard Devil Went Down to Georgia, you've heard him play fiddle.
The Heroes of my Hero, the Legendary of course. Thanks.
Unique parts.
Nooo Charlie! RIP
Johnny Gimble WINS!!!!!
gotta love that texas swing feel that Johnny puts in!!!
For those who don't know it. It is Charlie Daniels playing fiddle on Family Tradition for Hank Williams Jr, and Buddy Spicher on George Straits(Amarillo by morning)
Comments from Gary Don Kruse
Powerful
OMFG! It's like the _PANTHEON_ of fiddle players!
Everybody who is _anybody_ is there!
Wonderful!
nice.....wonderful array of players....
Some great fiddling here!
It looked like Gimble brought his own Amp to the party. That's probably why he sounded so amazing.
Had the op to meet dale,and terry morris as well as birine berline ,jr,doughrty my we remember them all
Yep the Morris Bros were/are great. Played with Terry few times. He walked away with just about every trophy there was in those days. Brother Dale happened to be in Tennison Bros Violin shop in FTW the day I walked in to look for axe. Asked if the cheap one they showed me was any good. Handed it to this guy. Tore it up. Was Dale Morris Sr. Reining TX State Fiddle champ. Did buy it. Never got as good as them though. Terry's loss was huge.

Even though this tune was not on the album, it’s great to see about half of the heroes on the album here playing this one together. One of my favorite records.
Glad Shorty, Johnny and Doug made the trip to TN to do the program.
it's a fiddle fest; awesome!!!
Kershaw doesn't have the best violin technique, but puts on the best show.
How in thunderation can Doug Kershaw play that with it hanging out on the end of his arm that way???
He and his fiddle are one in the same.
That's a very old folk technique - you can see it in paintings of old folk fiddlers from long ago (I mean REALLY long ago - over 100 years). I've no doubt there are still quite a number who do.
charlie daniels looks near 7 feet tall, a big dude..
I have never been trusting if’s the democratic dictated the Prosperity ironic with FED 🇺🇸😊, 🙏🏻💋!
Dutch thinks he's slick.
why is Charlie Daniels even there?

Charlie Daniels is playing the fiddle part on on Hank Jr's Family Tradition , and did a great job of it.I play fiddle myself and live very close to Turkey ,Tx
Can you play better
