It was a truly enjoyable hour of entertainment. They Connie, Sharon and Cheryl did an amazing job on the vocals on a song that is dear to Marty's heart.
#LYRICS TEMPTED MARTY STUART TV#
Marty and His Fabulous Superlatives performed "Country Boy Rock 'n Roll" (which, again, the TV audience did not get to enjoy).Ĭonnie Smith, Sharon and Cheryl White performed "The Pilgrim" with Marty and His Fabulous Superlatives accompanying them. The song sounds totally different with a mandolin bridge. Keith dedicated and performed (my favorite Keith song) "Who Wouldn't Want To Be Me" to Marty and Marty accompanying Keith on mandolin. It was a true highlight of the evening with Dierks singing "Tempted" (my favorite Marty song) and Marty trying his vocals on Dierks' hit "Lot Of Leaving Left To Do" (my favorite Dierks song). I should probably add that while GAC is in a commercial break, the Opry is still going on and you are missing some of the performances.ĭierks Bentley was not scheduled to perform on the Opry but Marty heard he was in town. Marty and His Fabulous Superlatives performed La Tingo Tango (which appears on the Cool Country Favorites album). Keith and Marty then sat on stools and sang the Hank Williams', Sr. You can tell how much Marty was enjoying the evening. Keith Urban returned to the stage to join Marty and His Fabulous Superlatives on "Now That's Country," with Keith totally changing the lyrics to the second verse of the song. Marty joined them on "Sourwood Mountain" and watched as banjoist Rhiannon Giddens did some high-stepping clogging in her bare feet. Next was Carolina Chocolate Drops, an African-American string band from North Carolina who performed "Georgie Buck." They remind me of the Old Crow Medicine Show (and will be opening for OCMS at the Ryman next month). It's a true memorial to Porter as well as the new permanent home at the Opry of Marty and His Fabulous Superlatives. Marty decorated the room with amazing photographs and tapestries. Marry was given the divine task of redecorating the room and it looks absolutely beautiful as you can tell from the screenshots. The TV audience was able to view Dressing Room #14 which belonged to the late Porter Wagoner. Keith then performed "Raining On Sunday." Little Jimmy Dickens and Marty's wife, Connie Smith wheeled out a beautiful birthday cake for Marty.
Keith then asked the audience to join in singing "Happy Birthday" to Marty, who came out on stage. The Opry audience was then treated to a trip down memory lane with Marty's 37 years in the music business, featuring pictures, video, and Marty talking about those musical years. The audience was much younger on this weekend.

Keith Urban opened the hour with "You Look Good In My Shirt." With only bassist Jerry Flowers and drummer Chris McHugh, you didn't get the full impact of Keith's amazing sound. It was a spectacular event and I hope you enjoy the screenshots from the evening. An hour was televised on GAC with guests Keith Urban, Dierks Bentley, Carolina Chocolate Drops, Connie Smith, and Sharon and Cheryl White.
The Grand Ole Opry celebrated Marty's 50th birthday (on September 30) with a night-long celebration. Grand Ole Opry - SeptemGrand Ole Opry - Nashville, TN on September 27, 2008
