About this episode

Clint Black discusses his journey from Texas musician to country music superstar and his latest memoir.

Clint Black spent years honing his craft in Texas clubs and honky-tonks before breaking through with his landmark 1989 album, Killin' Time, which became one of the biggest debut country albums ever. Over the course of a career spanning nearly four decades, Clint has sold more than 20 million records and earned countless awards and honors. These days, Clint is as active and creative as ever, writing, performing, touring, and even helping create a Country Music Hall of Fame exhibit celebrating his career. His latest project is his first memoir, Killin' Time: My Life and Music, which offers an intimate look at his journey from working-class Texas musician to country music superstar - with plenty of dramatic stories along the way.
