The crowd at the CMA's is enjoying the classic country songs when another side stage opens up, revealing Alan himself, to the crowd's surprise. Everyone gets on their feet to salute one of the heroes of country music. He is surrounded by his band while wearing his usual white hat.

Alan plays his song, 'Don't Rock the Jukebox,' and the crowd goes wild. He sounds as good as ever with his iconic voice and country twang. The tune is from his second album of the same name.

The album released in 1991 put Alan on the map as one of country's biggest stars. It produced five singles on the Hot Country Songs Charts, with three reaching number 1.
