(Billboard) Despite standout performances by the Eagles and Kid Rock (with Lil Wayne in tow), the 42nd annual Country Music Association Awards belonged to traditionalists, with George Strait and Brad Paisley coming away the big winners Wednesday night (Nov. 12) at the Sommet Center in Nashville.

Strait picked up his 20th, 21st and 22nd CMA awards. Co-produced by Strait and Tony Brown, "Troubadour," was named album of the year and "I Saw God Today" was named single of the year.

Paisley, who co-hosted the show with Carrie Underwood, picked up his second straight win for male vocalist. He also took home the music video award for "Waitin' on a Woman" which featured Andy Griffith and was directed by Jim Shea and Peter Tilden. - more on this story
