The two fronts converged at last week's Country Music Association Awards, where the contemporary DIXIE CHICKS took home four trophies while traditionalists George Strait and Alan Jackson won the Vocal Event category for Murder on Music Row, a duet that condemns country's pop trend with lines like "The almighty dollar and the lust for worldwide fame slowly killed tradition and for that someone should hang."

Though the set included some 25 songs or half-completed songs, the band never seemed to tire, and sounded tight all the way through the six-song encore. With an excellent sound mix, the vocal hooks were audible and the guitar punchy and loud. Even songs from the newest album, calm by comparison on recording, came out action-packed and catchy...
