  • In 1999, George Strait and Alan Jackson released their song, "Murder on Music Row." While the song reflected a critique of mainstream country music, the opening lyrics (Nobody saw him running from Sixteenth Avenue. They never found the fingerprint or the weapon that was used...) were an eerie reminder of the real murder on Music Row--the 1989 unsolved murder of Kevin Hughes. Join us as we discuss who it was running away from Sixteenth Avenue.
