          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                    QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1996
                ************************************


MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the three months ended March 31, 1996, the Company generated
$143,628 in cash flows from operations compared to $252,706 from
operations for the three months ended March 31, 1995.

As of March 31, 1996, the Company had cash of $199,667, which was
generated from operating activities and financing activities and prior
period partner contributions.  For additional details, see the
Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

The Company has and is aggressively looking toward expanding its
operations in the future.  Potential club locations are being
considered in both the Midwestern and Southwestern sections of the
country.  This growth strategy is what will dictate how funds will be
spent through the next quarter and the year beyond.  Additional
nightclubs may be financed through the formation of limited
partnerships, internal funding, bank financing or private and/or
public equity or debt offerings, or a combination of the foregoing. 
The Company may also purchase existing clubs through transactions
involving the issuance of the Company's stock and/or cash.

Pre-opening expenses for the Tucson club were incurred during the
renovation of the facility from July 18 through September 27, 1995 and
are reported as an asset.  This asset is being written off against
income during the first year of operations and should be fully
amortized in the quarter ended September 30, 1996.

Property and equipment is primarily made up of assets required to open
and operate the country western clubs in Arizona, Indiana and
Missouri; and include additions and improvements made during the
Tucson club renovation in the quarter ended September 30, 1995. 
Leasehold improvements total $2,605,709; equipment, furniture and
fixtures $953,718; land and buildings $860,900; and parking lot
improvements of $119,989.  The improvements were financed with
long-term borrowings, partnership capital and proceeds from the
Company's public offering.

The Company has recorded a deferred tax asset of $228,000 at March 31,
1996 representing temporary differences of approximately $575,000
between book income and taxable income.  the reversal of existing
temporary differences would allow approximately $42,000 of deferred
taxes to be recovered as a carryback against prior years' taxes paid. 
Realization of the remaining $186,000 deferred tax asset is dependent
upon the Company generating sufficient taxable income to offset the
additional future tax deductions.  Average annual taxable income
necessary for the next 15 years to realize the deferred tax asset
amounts to approximately $70,000.  Although realization of the
deferred tax asset is not assured, management believes it is more
likely than not that all of the deferred tax asset will be realized
because if the Company had not owned 50% interest in the Atlanta club
for six months during 1995, the pro forma net income before provision
for income taxes would have been $308,266 for the year ended December
31, 1995.

MATERIAL CHANGES IN THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Total revenues from operations from the Indianapolis club amounted to
$508,264 for the three months ended March 31, 1996.  This represents
a 27.6% decrease in revenue from operations of $701,649 for the three
months ended March 31, 1995.  The Company's second country western
club opened May 18, 1994 and a third country western club in Tucson,
Arizona was purchased and commenced Company operations on November 1,
1994.  Total revenues from operations for the St. Louis and Tucson
clubs amounted to $1,024,822 and $595,804, respectively, for the three
months ended March 31, 1996.  This represents a 3.1% decrease in
revenue from operations of $1,057,244 for the St. Louis club and a
6.9% decrease in revenue from operations of $639,973 for the Tucson
club for the three months ended March 31, 1995.  Miscellaneous
revenues generated by the Company were $8,838 for the three month
period ended March 31, 1996.

The quarter's consolidated revenue of $2,137,728 represents beverage
and food sales, admission fees, and other income.  Of the consolidated
revenue for the quarter, 23.8% represents revenue from the
Indianapolis club.  The St. Louis  and Tucson clubs generated revenues
of 47.9% and 27.9%, respectively, and miscellaneous income generated
0.4% of the revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1996.  Total
revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1996 decreased $316,438
or 12.9% from total revenue reported for the quarter ended March 31,
1995.

The Company's consolidated net income before provision for income
taxes of $143,681 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 represents
a decrease from the net income before provision for income taxes of
$304,062 for the three months ended March 31, 1995.

            WESTERN COUNTRY CLUBS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES


The decrease in cost of products and services, and general and
administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1996
represent reductions in the cost of operations effected by management
as a result of the decreases in revenues for the period.

The decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses for the three
months ended March 31, 1996 represents a reduction in amortization of
pre-opening expenses for the St. Louis and Indianapolis facilities
which were written off against income during the first year of
operations and were fully amortized in the quarter ended June 30,
1995.

Other partners' and shareholders' interests in net income of
consolidated subsidiaries represents income attributable to limited
partners interests in WCC I, Ltd. and are treated as a reduction to
income for the Company's consolidated statement.  Decreases in the
amount for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 are related to the
decrease in revenues experienced by the Company.
