Country Music Hall of Famer Toby Keith passed away in February of stomach cancer at 62, but his chart-topping hits live on. That’s the takeaway from a two-hour concert special in which his country-music peers pay tribute by performing songs from his extensive legacy of 42 top-10 hits and 44 million albums sold. Carrie Underwood opens the show with “A Little Less Talk and a Lot More Action,” with highlights including Luke Bryan (in a black cowboy hat) singing “Should’ve Been a Cowboy,” Yellowstone’s Lainey Wilson riding her horse to join Jamey Johnson on “Beer for My Horses,” and Tyler Hubbard leading a rendition of “Red Solo Cup” with friends including Jelly Roll, HARDY, Jordan Davis and the Warren Brothers. The roster also includes Darius Rucker, Eric Church, Ashley McBryde and a special performance by Keith’s daughter, Krystal Keith.
