Buck Owens: A Deep Dive into the Sound of Bakersfield

Buck Owens: The Man Behind the Legend

Born Alvis Edgar Owens Jr. on August 12, 1929, in Sherman, Texas, Buck Owens would go on to become one of the most influential figures in country music. Known for his distinctive twangy sound and signature red, white, and blue guitar, Owens left an indelible mark on the genre, earning him a place in the Country Music Hall of Fame. Here are the Buck Owens Tracks and Albums.

Early Life and Career

Owens’ family relocated to Arizona during the Dust Bowl, and it was there that he discovered his love for music. In the late 1940s, he formed his first band, the Schoolhouse Playboys, and began honing his craft. Owens’ journey took a significant turn when he moved to Bakersfield, California, in the 1950s—a move that would shape the future of country music.

The Bakersfield Sound

Buck Owens became a pioneer of the Bakersfield Sound, a subgenre characterized by its raw, stripped-down approach to country music. In contrast to the polished and orchestrated Nashville Sound, Bakersfield artists embraced a more straightforward, honky-tonk style that resonated with a working-class audience.

The Vinyl Era: Buck Owens’ Discography

Buck Owens’ impact on country music is perhaps best encapsulated in his extensive discography. His prolific career spans several decades, with numerous chart-topping singles and critically acclaimed albums.

“Buck Owens Sings Harlan Howard” (1961)

One of Owens’ early albums, “Buck Owens Sings Harlan Howard,” showcases his collaboration with prolific songwriter Harlan Howard. The album features a blend of honky-tonk and traditional country, with Owens’ vocals and Howard’s lyrics creating a potent combination. Standout tracks include “Excuse Me (I Think I’ve Got a Heartache)” and “Foolin’ Around.”

“I’ve Got a Tiger by the Tail” (1965)

Released in 1965, this album marked a turning point for Buck Owens. The title track, “I’ve Got a Tiger by the Tail,” became a massive hit, reaching number 1 on the country charts. The album’s energetic and infectious sound solidified Owens’ status as a leading figure in the Bakersfield Sound.

“Open Up Your Heart” (1966)

Widely regarded as one of Owens’ masterpieces, “Open Up Your Heart” showcases his versatility as an artist. The title track, along with hits like “Think of Me,” highlights Owens’ ability to seamlessly blend traditional country with elements of rock and roll.

“Buck Owens in London” (1969)

Taking his sound across the pond, Owens recorded the live album “Buck Owens in London” at the Wembley Empire Pool. The album captures the excitement of Owens’ performances and introduces his brand of country music to an international audience.

“Act Naturally” (1971)

The album “Act Naturally” features the iconic title track, which not only became one of Owens’ signature songs but also crossed over to the pop charts. The album showcases Owens’ enduring appeal and his ability to connect with audiences beyond the traditional country music fanbase.

Buck Owens Vinyl: A Band Apart

The Formation of Buck Owens Vinyl

In addition to his solo career, Buck Owens found success with his band, Buck Owens Vinyl. Comprising talented musicians who shared Owens’ passion for the Bakersfield Sound, the band added a layer of depth and energy to Owens’ performances.

Merle Haggard and the Strangers

Often mentioned in the same breath as Buck Owens, Merle Haggard and the Strangers were another influential force in the Bakersfield Sound. Haggard, like Owens, brought a raw and authentic approach to country music, capturing the struggles and triumphs of everyday life.

Wynn Stewart and His Touring Band

Wynn Stewart, a key figure in the development of the Bakersfield Sound, had his own touring band that contributed to the genre’s growth. Stewart’s honky-tonk style, coupled with the tight musicianship of his band, created a sonic landscape that mirrored the ethos of Bakersfield.

Conclusion
