Free Music Review: That Bakersfield Sound
Hit: 4 Stars
I bought Vol 1 for the songs "Act Naturally", "Just As Long As You Love Me" and "Tiger by the Tail", but I've really enjoyed having my ears opened up to tunes like "Under Your Spell Again" and "Waitin' in Your Welfare Line". This CD plus Vol 2 are well worth the purchase.
I'm not a country fan per se, but back in the 60's my Dad kept the radio tuned to WEXT, the country & western station in Connecticut. I'm rediscovering the best C&W of that era including Buck, Merle Haggard and George Jones. Rhino makes it easy to collect the best of the best.
The Very Best Of Buck Owens, Vol.1 Poster
Today he's heralded as a traditionalist who rejected the Nashville Sound's pop-rock concessions, but the real secret behind Owens's enormous success is that he embraced rock & roll more completely than any other country contemporary. The 16 hits here trace Owens and his Buckaroos as they move from more rural-sounding hits such as "Under Your Spell Again" to the rockabilly-inspired rhythms (Owens backed Gene Vincent for awhile) of his driving "freight train" sound, a series of classic singles that always sounded modern, electric, and decidedly urban. Volume 1 barely scratches the surface, but if you've never had your heart skip a beat when Don Rich cranks that driving electric lead to "I've Got a Tiger by the Tail," then you've just got to hear this. --David CantwellCountry Music CDs
