- Buck Owens Died 15 Years Ago, Now His Children Confirm the Rumors
Do You Remember Buck Owens? In the era before Nashville became the heart of country music, Buck was instrumental in shaping the genre. With hits like "Act Naturally" and "Waiting in Your Welfare Line," he left a significant mark. Notably, his tunes were covered by legends such as The Beatles and Ray Charles.
Both were great, but Merle Haggard always be my number one favorite singer and songwriter.🔥❤️
I love Merle Haggard. I love when he discovered performing in the local bar he could make $2.50 a night. He decided he would just do that rather than working in the fields. My mother’s family worked in the fields in the central valley.
Both are precious gems in country music. I hope they are still making music in heaven.
Merle Haggard was a genius. His instrumental skills and vocal style had many layers of depth.
Merle's music didn't flow like Buck's
I love Merle Haggard!
So was Buck
Loved them both and had favorite songs from both. They brought Country music alive. I'm no nearing 80 years old and I still love to hear their songs and listen to the old Country all the time. Most of the new I'm not crazy about, there's to many instruments drowning out the singer. The stories in the Country songs is what drew us in and the modern country may have good stories but it's difficult to hear the words. I loved the voices first, instruments are to enhance not drown the singer.
I'm 57 an totally agree with you ...
Myself, the reason the instruments are so loud is because the stars can’t sing a lick. Turn off the noise and just listen to the voices; disgusting.
Two of my favorite country singers ♥️♥️. Now they are singing in that Heavenly Choir!😇
Merle was an amazing musician and songwriter. He is my favorite country artist of all time.
They are both Legends.
Buck Owens one of my favorite.
I always liked Buck's music. He influenced so many people like the Beatles, Gram Parsons and Keith Richards. I lived in Bakersfield for a few years and was sad to see the music scene severely lacking compared how it had been in the past. Not very many music venues left. I've been to the Crystal Palace a few times and the house band and food was really good. Unfortunately Buck had already passed.
Buck Owen’s and Don Rich were amazing! Saw them perform many times!👍👍‼️‼️
that must have been crazy shows.
40+ years before his death Merle moved up here to Far North CA. Living on his ranch just east of Redding, in Palo Cedro. Sometimes he would spend weeks at a time on his houseboat with friends on beautiful Lake Shasta. He had a favorite little restaurant in Redding he often ate breakfast at. The owners set up a special table off in a private corner, just for him. They would only allow Merle and whatever family or friends he was with, to sit there. It sat for weeks sometimes without being used. May the Lord bless you Hag along with Far North CA. Always and forever, Merle Haggard country.......🤠 EeYaWhooo Pardnar.......
My favorite Buck Owens song is.... Together Again. I play that song everyday. Continue to sleep in peace Buck Owens ❤
My fav song also . Buck was the first singer i can remember hearing as a very young boy , around 5 I think . Loved his and Merles music .
👍
He will always be a winner 🏆😄🇮🇪
Absolutely agree..
Mearl is my favorite by far.
Don rich was the sound.
I agree, I saw Buck live back in the day and Don Rich was a strong presence on stage. Don was the glue for the Bakersfield sound. 😃
Don Rich was reason for Bucks success imo
Buck would have been very successful without Don rich. And Don would have been successful without Buck. But together they were legendary. They had an amazing friendship and they loved each other like family. Buck was devastated when Don died. Buck was never the same
Buck and Merle contributed a lot of tunes that the bar-bands do to this day. I believe that artists whose material gets covered by the neighborhood bands are the true icons of music!
I'm out here in Windsor I'll go by Justin you know if everybody feels the way I do about all of our country western singers passing it's a tragedy you know just like George Jones who's going to fill their shoes Buck Owens I got a tiger by the tail🎉 they're going to put me in the movies Johnny Cash I love Cocaine Blues Charlie Pride roll on Mississippi Galaga just so many have been missed I know I should the hell do Alabama the closer we get I'm getting down there now Keith Whitley and just so many more Randy Travis Diggin Up Bones that's about enough I got to say this is just plugging out❤😢
A true Legend.
Back in1966 my mom bought my sister a guitar, and it had with it a book let to show her how to play it. The first song I've ever heard from buck Owen was: I got a tiger by the tail. In the Middle1970s my neice and nephew tore it up. None of us kids never learnt how to play it
Merle.. but I love love loved Buck. Buck and Don, the way they sang together, and the way they played together is so inspiring to 2 of my senses. It just always makes me happy.
Merle Haggard tops total package singer and song writer.
Same can be said for Buck.
Loved Buck!
Buck is my favorite by far
This is actually very good and interesting.
I went to grade school in Okla. with a boy and girl. Rumor was Buck was their father and they looked just like him.
Could not pick a favorite, but, Merle's songs were true grit which seemed to strike a real chord for most country listeners. Without Don Rich, Buck's career probably would have taken a different turn. Liked both Artists, but there were many other great Artists in Country Music at that time. 😃
I remember watching Buck on Hee Haw with my Grandparents as a kid. My Grandma always said he is not a good looking man . He looks like a Catfish but boy he sure can sing!
Buck Owens was never even in the running when it came to Merle Haggard!!!
Buck who?
Merle Haggard was, is and always will be #1!!! The epitome of real country music. No one ever came close to his song writing, his music and singing.
"The Best"!!! Hands down. Merle was authentic. The one and only, Merle Haggard!
Well done! Thank you for posting this!
Merle #1 Buck #2
Merle is country music's poet
Buck is country music's entertainer
"Streets of Bakersfield"
They don’t make’em like this anymore
Donald Eugene Ulrich was the Bakersfield sound.
My favorite ❤️
Merl married Bucks ex wife and she sang in his shows for years after,my parents never missed Bucks tv show.His guitar(Don Rich )player was phenomenal. I read that growing up John5 was inspired by watching Buck and Roy Clark on Hee Haw tv show.Amazing musician played with Motley Crue..
Is so sad that people can say whatever they want and not care who it hurts.

Brings back great memories.. Good to see Susan Raye ( Susan Aird ) in many clips. We worked together at radio station KWAY in Forest Grove, Ore. We went to High School together.
They probably should’ve touched on that a bit more IMO. Arms Full of Empty, was just one of my favs with those two.
I am more a fan of Merle Haggard. His songs have touched me deeper. Steven/
So narrator, what rumors?
I wish the pictures went along with the story... Hard to follow! Frustrating
Oh what a wicked web we weave, when first we start to deceive....
Merkel was by far the superior musician, song writer, entertainer, father and most handsome. They both had problems when it came to being a faithfully husband but Merle seemed to get better with age.
Buck Owens and Merle Haggard were friends and worked through the high and lows of life. They made it all right and that's what counts in life!!
My favorite song by buck owens was called think of me.
In its original recording don rich is singing the high part.
A fan named Estella Olsen wrote the lyrics as a poem and sent them to Buck, as many fans did back in the day. While most of these type of letters would get dismissed or ignore, Don Rich thought it good enough and took the lyrics, made an adjustment here and there, and composed the melody and music for the song. Olsen gets credited on the song...and I believe she received royalties for it, and her family continues to do so, to this day. In 1966, when it was released, it went to Number 1 on the country charts and spent 6 weeks at the top. It also reach number 74 on the pop charts according to the wikipedia write up on the song. Lovely song. Dig, DmGrk
The children never confirmed any "rumors"...
juz typical youtube "Clickbate" bro
But you had to watch to find out
Thanks for saving my time
That's how they get you, isn't it?@@williamchauncey8100
I've truthfully never been a fan of Buck,but I do like the live performance at Wembley,of "Big in Vegas." It's very moving and believable.
I used to buy my records from Buck in his record store . That was in the 60s down town Bakersfield.
So very true thanks for sharing because I am a county fan. Iremver seeing them on television as a little girl. ❤😊
❤❤❤❤ I LOVE ❤ ❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤KIND OF ❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤COUNTRY ❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤MUSIC ❤❤❤❤❤
THANK YOU FOR YOUR FANTASTIC CHANNELS
Repetitive click bait.
I hate videos like this. The title is a lie. It’s a guy reading a Wikipedia page and rolling pics that have relevance to what he’s saying. Lazy money grab.
So what are the “rumors” and why do you keep showing Willie Nelson?
They are showing use a loser
Why do we need to expose the dirt and sadness of a man who died years ago . I have watched only the first couple of minutes and won’t watch anthology more. Listen to the music and enjoy, don’t destroy the man.
Did a lot of dancing to Buck 's music. !!
Too bad this awful AI voice over documentary had to use a terrible clickbait title to get views. It cheapens Buck's Legacy
Buck was IT !!
I thought you said he had 6 children not 2 ?
20 minutes to find out he had a Heart Attack..
Both artist are most definitely in the top 10 of All time.
As a song writer and musician over all I would put Merle as above Buck. BUT the fact that made me a life long country music fan
#1 John R. Cash
Then Buck Owens
So why all the clips of Willy Nelson?
Blocked this channel from my recommended.
Merle was my favorite artist, well ahead of Buck Owens.
Hands down MERLE !
There should be a button titled Clickbait. If enough users click on it the uploader automatically gets suspended for 30 days.
You managed to drag this out for 21 minutes .
No rumors
Still don't know what the rumors are .must be a long lost secret
Loved a lot of music from that era. But, I think the rumor is, that we’ve all been had.
I like them both. Merle is my favorite. I knew Bonnie had something to do with Buck & Merle. That’s the rumor I think.
Also Buck was a womanizer (just watch HEE-HAW episodes you’ll see the proof).
Songs of Bucks I can play on my guitar are Act Naturally (Thanks Johnny Russell - RIP), Together Again, Love’s Gonna Live Here
Songs I can play on my guitar by Merle Haggard are Big City,Mama Tried, Swinging Doors, and some others.
I like other songs by both Buck & Merle.
I knew Buck & Merle were both from Bakersfield but what I didn’t know was that Merle played Bass & a member of the Buckaroos before Don came in the picture.
I’m glad that Merle & Buck got together for the last time before Buck passed away in 2006.
After Buck & Bonnie divorced Buck & Susan Raye were involved in a relationship & married & Merle & Bonnie was in a relationship & married.
Bonnie was a great businesswoman with Buck & Merle during their marriages.
Bonnie and Merle got married.
I wandered why Susan Raye was there because she couldn’t sing, he was taking care of her
Bucks real name was not Alvin. It was Alvis. Alvis Edgar Owens
The Buck Owens estate has announced that it is trying to sell the Crystal Palace, but it remains in operation for dinners and shows.
Click bait.
The Crystal Palace went into bankruptcy, with a few employees going to jail for stealing not only money, but memorabilia as well.
Interesting Bakersfield history!!
His kids never mentioned anything. ????? Useless
Love how a young Willie Nelson keeps popping up......I suppose someone thinks Willie is Buck...🤣
Why all the clips of Willie Nelson?
Seems random.
What rumors were confirmed?
MEARL IS THE WINNER
His name was MERLE FFS!!!!!
Alvis, not Alvin!
Bullshit clickbait title.
Why do they keep showing clips of Willie Nelson?
I was riding my bike and your oil deal and Buck Owens pulled up beside me in a station wagon and asked me hey do you know where any girls are at
What rumors?
Fake
and so a false caption to the story shame on you
I went to school with John and Jack Owens Bucks kids
His first name was Alvis, not 'Alvin!' That's what you get when you use an AI voice to narrate your videos.
Narrator, tell us your favorite between the two. Tell us your favorite song as well.
A.I. can't....
That picture of Mearle Haggard with the rainbow flag wasn't a picture I'd seen before.
Eating Rainbow Stew with a Silver Spoon...remember?
No. It was a choice.
Tiger by the. Tail
Definitely Merle….
THERES ONE OIL PAINTING R.B.S. BANK BOUGHT OF WATT,25 MILLION.
I think Merle Haggard was far better
Click bait title
Merle haggard was far superior
this video is so full of false info that it should be banned
