I ran monitors at the Wheeling Jamboree for years. The first concert I ever went to was Buck Owens and my Mother made me go. I was about 10 years old when Tiger by the Tail was hit. That show was burned into my brain. All I knew was I wanted to work in the music business and boy did I. Every thing from playing to all around stage technician. Lights, sound, get your guitar out life. Great way to make a living.
I was born in 53, so in 66/67/68/69, you know what I was listening to. Many evenings I had to ask Mom to get Dad to turn the music down while I was trying to do the little homework that I did. He had a big tv/radio/stereo, about 6 ft. long in the living room. Many evenings of listening to Buck, Merle, and George. Buck in the 60s was unstoppable, great band, great songs. Never stopped listening.
Buck was a great guitar player. Played all over the world and could afford to live in lavish city and house but called Bakersfield his home til he passed.
He was a studio guitar player too, before ever becoming big, he had a bad called the Play Boys, School House Boys and discovered the Fender Telecaster, it was almost called the Broadcaster, Buck advertised for Fender! Buck was a County Rock n Roller !
Buck had a big Ranch in California and had a studio on the property where the Buck Owens Ranch Shows were shot! It was before Hee Haw, check them out on TH-cam! Back in the 60's many people had B & W TV Sets, oh they missed out on those wild, beautiful suits they wore!
I remember when I was about 10 y/o and was trying to find some music on the stero I heard" Tiger by the Tail". and was dancing in the living room .. my parents thought I went nuts. From that point I was hooked on Buck Owens and the sound of Don Rich. There sound would always put you in a good mood no matter what. GOD bless Buck and Don , may they make the Angels dance in the heavens above.
I was around 5 and the song for me was Girl On The Sugar Pie Lane! After that I made a TELECASTER out of 2 pieces of scap wood and put on concerts outback as l played and sang on top of a flat roof doghouse!!
My Dad used to take us to Wembley nearly every Easter during the 70s. One year I saw Dolly Parton twice in the same day. In the BBC Radio tent. Then in the Evening. My Dad was a massive John Cash fan. In 1979 we got to go to Nashville. Whilst we were we met Hank Locklin. He invited us to The Opery. He showed us around. We watched his show from the side of the stage. Half way through his show he introduced us on stage. “I would like to introduce my friends all the way from England”. We had to come home a day early, so we missed the chance of seeing Waylon Jennings in concert. My Mum was gutted. Great memories. Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson are still my favourites.
Buck closing speech about his daddy is a real tear jerker. I hope Buck’s estate still has that guitar. As a kid, I remember Buck's red, white and blue guitars that Sears sold out of their catalogs.
My heart skips a beat whenever I hear this magic music ,so sad that we have lost most of our genuine country music artists, just thankful that I have a great collection of this music , and also thankful for sites like this , keep it coming and thanks
The beauty of her face was beyond my wildest dreams...like cherry blossoms blooming on the mountains in the early spring... No one wrote them like Buck Owens.
The first Buck Owens song I learned was " Buckeroo", the band I played in 1983-2000 opened and ended with it for years. We got to open for Beatlemania and Big Wheelie and the hub caps.
My late Father's All-time favorite, well, Buck & Ol' Marty Robbins also. Pop would travel from So-Calif up to Buck's Crystal Palace in Bakersfield to see him perform. He alway's was after me to go with them, but I never made the time & it's now one of my biggest regrets 🙏 RIP Pop & Buck ✝️
If you want to hear Buck and Don Owens light it up, search Buck Owens Carnegie Hall 1966. HeHaw was great but made a few people forget what a trailblazer he was while Nashville was going a different direction.
Great show, but Don and Buck were so tuned in. Osmosis. Vocally and musically. Don ripped the Tele and Buck was a great picker. Great music from the original Buckaroos. Great band.
I listened to Buck Owen.s 45 Record,s ... 45,s I got a Tiger By The Tail in the early 70,s, My absolute favorite song . I honestly thought it was about a real tiger,, I still love it !!
Always loved Buck Owen’s music , and Dwight Yoakam, I then found out that I share my birthday with Dwight, even down to the year,, spent my 60th birthday weekend in Bakersfield at a big drag race meeting up at Famoso then finished with birthday dinner at Bucks Crystal Palace
I believe that is Don's Tele. I heard Don's wife gave it to Buck when he came out of retirement. I know that Marty Stuart owns Don's silver sparkle nowadays and that it was given to him by Buck.
@@jeffclark7888 Responding to TED's post above I believe that is the correct sceanario. Its in good hands if Marty Stuart now owns it. He is steeped in Country Music history. I'm sure it might end up in the CMHOF someday. Don Rich needs to be inducted in a "side man, musician" category. Hope it happens soon.
White girls have always like black music. I know it's a stretch to call "rap" music, but you get my point. Just look at the beginnings of rock, and there were white girls shaking their ass and going crazy to Chuck Berry and Little Richard..
Love this. Do you have any Pinkertons Colours footage from 1989 ? My husband was the bass player and sadly passed 2 and a half years ago. Would love to see him on here . Thanks.
I played that steel and steinberger. I still have them both 2024! I miss those days with Buck.
That must have been a great experience !
You sound good there, Terry.
Thank you for the music 🎼. I miss Buck so much.😢

Best country singer ever. That is Buck Owens!
YOU SAID IT HOSS
Agreed!
Damn right
Buck was a great guitar player. Played all over the world and could afford to live in lavish city and house but called Bakersfield his home til he passed.
i saw him play at the crystal palace a few weeks before he passed. i’ll never forget it
Much like Mickey Gilley, he's still here in Pasa "get-down" dena when not on the road.
He was a studio guitar player too, before ever becoming big, he had a bad called the Play Boys, School House Boys and discovered the Fender Telecaster, it was almost called the Broadcaster, Buck advertised for Fender! Buck was a County Rock n Roller !

I no buck Owens when I was a young girl use to go see him a t Lakewood fair grounds in Atlanta Georgia and still watch his show on hehe
One of the saddest things is that country music is gone.
Amen, Brother Rodney.
got that right
No its not.
Country music is very much alive and well
@@RedDirtRules where

I saw Buck, Don and Doyle in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1969. Great show. He can still do it here. Real Country Music.
OMG! I grew up with Buck and I love all his songs....

I don’t get no better than Buck Owens
You’re Buck Owens? I thought he passed away years ago. Cool.

Buck Owens is country music !!.
Yes Buck Owens is a very good singer and when he sings Baker Street with Dwight Yocum. 2 amazing men ❤️❤️❤️
Real country music. What's called country music today is only CMINO, Country Music In Name Only.
I love Buck Owens music. It’s the best! 💖
Yes!
I've been a fan of Buck Owens since the 1960s when we use watch the Buck Owens Show on TV. It would come on right before Hee Haw, lol.
Buck closing speech about his daddy is a real tear jerker. I hope Buck’s estate still has that guitar.

Ifeel Buck neverperformed the same after loss of
Amazing Don Rich .
@@lucguenette7534 Don Rich wasn't there for that concert
To me this was his last really great performance it was all her haw crap after this
But you are right Don was amazing
I feel the spirit of Don Rich standing by Buck...smiling.
My heart skips a beat whenever I hear this magic music ,so sad that we have lost most of our genuine country music artists, just thankful that I have a great collection of this music , and also thankful for sites like this , keep it coming and thanks
We all miss him .Peter Keane
Buck was one of country musics greatest
The beauty of her face was beyond my wildest dreams...like cherry blossoms blooming on the mountains in the early spring...
No one wrote them like Buck Owens.
As a child in the 60s I have fond memories of our listening to Buck Owen’s and the Buckaroos 😉 Thanks for the memories Mr. Buck Owen’s !!! 🙏
A quarter in the jukebox,I remember when it five for a quarter,miss the old days
My mother ran 2 beer joints from 63- 74, I remember 6 for a quarter, and those were silver quarters
Thank you for sharing. Only one Buck Owens
The first Buck Owens song I learned was " Buckeroo", the band I played in 1983-2000 opened and ended with it for years. We got to open for Beatlemania and Big Wheelie and the hub caps.
Thanks. That's a great comment.
Real country music
That was badass. Thank you . Here in Texas loving music. Buck was the Frank Z of country. Thanks for the awsome show!
Fantastic. This is what country music should be.
Buck Owens one of the greatest country singers of all time we all miss you Buck
Bucks burning it up!!👍💙💙
Buck wasone of great country singers
Legend I'm listening 🎧 here in Henley Beach 🏖️ Australia 2021
Buck's songs&music were always in a zone of their own!
Miss Buck and guitarist Don Rich❤😢
Real real music
I saw Buck at our county fair back in 1973. Great guy. Would have loved to see him play at the Blackboard Cafe back when he first started.
This is hard to beat. 🤠☝
The best ever!!
Buck owens is sensational I think he the best back band than any of them with that driving rythem for sure
Yes absolutely so up beat and that great voice of his and that band 🙂 the best he is so down to earth and also very spiritual to
I loved Buck
Can’t thank you enough for this channel. Makes a mediocre day good again
Beautiful to see some of the audience decked out in Western-style clothes.
Better than no Buck.
My late Father's All-time favorite, well, Buck & Ol' Marty Robbins also. Pop would travel from So-Calif up to Buck's Crystal Palace in Bakersfield to see him perform. He alway's was after me to go with them, but I never made the time & it's now one of my biggest regrets 🙏 RIP Pop & Buck ✝️
Buck and The Buckaroos are premiere performers in hillbilly heaven 🎉
If you want to hear Buck and Don Owens light it up, search Buck Owens Carnegie Hall 1966. HeHaw was great but made a few people forget what a trailblazer he was while Nashville was going a different direction.
Who is Don Owens, never heard of him,!!!!
@@nutindoin2, they weren't actually married.
They sound awesome!! Wish I was there! Legend! These Brits eat our music up! lol
Nice guitar work from Buck!
Notice Buck dosen’t smile like he did when Don was alive. Like he said he lost his joy of playing when Don died
Yes, I noticed. Don´s death was a great loss for him. He asked Don´s family his guitar to play on these new shows but the magic they created was gone.
You're right, it doesn't look like Buck is having much fun up there without Don :-(
I saw a documentary that said Buck wasn't just depressed, he actually had a nervous breakdown when Don died.
Great show, but Don and Buck were so tuned in. Osmosis. Vocally and musically. Don ripped the Tele and Buck was a great picker. Great music from the original Buckaroos. Great band.
I bet he missed Don so much. They were phenomenal together.
He also had outstanding voice different than any of the others
Yes exactly his music is so upbeat enjoyable to listen and like you said than the other ones
I love country music theses guys are great
god bless bakersfield!
Totally awesome 👏 👏👏👍👍😃
OWEN BEST COUNTRY A ND WESTERN IN THE WORLD CIA AMERICAN EMBASSY 2021
Love that the steel guitarist has a headless bass before headless basses and guitars exploded in popularity
thats a headless guitar
I find this style of country far more appealing than any of the modern generations stuff.
I listened to Buck Owen.s 45 Record,s ... 45,s I got a Tiger By The Tail in the early 70,s, My absolute favorite song . I honestly thought it was about a real tiger,, I still love it !!
Thanks for posting this video. Greetings from the Netherlands
I simply love THE BAKERSFIELD SOUND!!
I was at that best gig in my life rip buck
Thanks everybody for uploading Buck Owens.
I was a truck driving woman. I loved it and miss it. The hum and whine just get in your blood.
I love "Waitin' in Your Welfare Line."
I am an Old hillbilly and proud of it. I really like the videos that you post on here.
I sure miss Buck and Don.
BUCK OWENS! GOOD SHOW !!
Now this was Country
If you ain't sweating, it ain't COUNTRY!!
Miss Don Rich so much, wondering if that's Don Richs' old guitar. They were so awesome together Buck and Don 😢
I've heard that Don's wife gave Buck Don's silver sparkle Tele to take on the road when he came out of retirement.
@@thor697 I believe you are correct.
Those two were a pair. Perfect.
I bet Buck treasures that guitar.
Ted that is Don's guitar. He ad replaced the maple neck with a rosewood one. Bucks still had the maple capped neck.
Buck owens you was the best love your musikk
Amazing the twang that Steinberger was producing.
Always loved Buck Owen’s music , and Dwight Yoakam, I then found out that I share my birthday with Dwight, even down to the year,, spent my 60th birthday weekend in Bakersfield at a big drag race meeting up at Famoso then finished with birthday dinner at Bucks Crystal Palace
Donnie Barsness loved his singing,R I P,Donnie
wow my fav. buck
I listen wen a kid sang hs songs wen i drank made gf cry she still love me told hr atograph later
What a brilliant. Voice
Yes!
It does nt get anybetter then that ❤
This is incredible and beautiful! After all, didn't 4 British lads once cover a song called ACT NATURALLY?
Yes, they did. Buck wrote it.
Wow!
In my humble opinion if your 💯 🇺🇸 hillbilly you're gonna love that hotdog song ☺️
I love his hat miss that man
18:07 Buck rips out a great solo!
Great backing group.
American music
*SUPER MUSIC*
Another american legend
Had to be after....😁
No one will ever fill them boots
Don Richs' guitar was much the same as the one that Buck is playing !
They were both FENDER TELECASTERS
I believe that is Don's Tele. I heard Don's wife gave it to Buck when he came out of retirement. I know that Marty Stuart owns Don's silver sparkle nowadays and that it was given to him by Buck.
@@thor697 buck was one of the greats of country music he is sadly missed
@@jeffclark7888 Responding to TED's post above I believe that is the correct sceanario. Its in good hands if Marty Stuart now owns it. He is steeped in Country Music history. I'm sure it might end up in the CMHOF someday. Don Rich needs to be inducted in a "side man, musician" category. Hope it happens soon.
That is Don's guitar
Put quarter in the jute box and listen to any country music you like, Not no more ,
I miss Buck
Love Buck!
I raised my girls on country music now they like rap where did I go wrong?
White girls have always like black music. I know it's a stretch to call "rap" music, but you get my point.
Just look at the beginnings of rock, and there were white girls shaking their ass and going crazy to Chuck Berry and Little Richard..
Pedal guitarist's guitar is the same as Eddie Van Halen!! A Steinberger!!
That's some mighty fine pickin
Is the Drummer there the original drummer for the Buckaroos from back in the 60s? They used to say, he had been the "Lady-Killer" of the group.
Would that be Willie Cantu??
No... that is not Willie.
The drummer is Jim McCarty. Willie Cantu left the group in 1969, I believe.
Never the same sound after Don Rich.
lovesong😇🥰😍🤩😘
Beautiful 🌹 🦋 🪷
Love this. Do you have any Pinkertons Colours footage from 1989 ? My husband was the bass player and sadly passed 2 and a half years ago. Would love to see him on here . Thanks.
Sorry, Mrs Campbell, but these videos are all what I´ve got. Thank you for sharing your memories and for watching!
Haha that's during my ten age life.
😘⚘👏👏👏
Hello Trouble!
do you have any David Houston live at Wembly? I really enjoy all of your videos you post, Thanks
Tell ya what...I sure miss the Men n Women...cool clothes, good tunes...not like ...???...today!
Although Buck let the great Don Rich play most of the Telly licks in their day, he was a fine picker himself as well.
