Nashville Now was a live variety program airing on the Nashville Network from 1983 to 1992. It was a whopping 90 minutes for the first several years and later cut down to an hour. Veteran radio disc jockey Ralph Emery was the host of the series which was the flagship program of the network. Pretty much every country music star of the past and present appeared on the show several times during it's run, as well as quite a few promising newcomers and people who never quite made it.
