John Edwards seemed to have the world by the tail.  Then he self-destructived.  What are some of your ideas concerning why people such as Edwards self-destruct?  Is there such a phenomenon as fear of success, or is this just a case of selfishness, narcissism, and ego getting...

The remix features my brother, Brad, member of a bluegrass band in Slovakia, and my daughter on keyboards, at the age of 2 (she's 3 now).  Tell me where my daughter comes in (at the beginning, the middle, or the very end of the song, and win an autographed copy of the CD upon which the song...

I had to pinch myself in the BuckarooM last night to find out if I was really in the middle of producing this haunted, romantic ballad by rising nu bako sound artist, Hank Ray, or if it was a dream.  As it turned out, it was a dream, but a dream come true.

Hank Ray was over in the BuckarooM last night for a single-question interview that doubled as the song you are hearing right now.  I was a bit circumlocutory in asking the question, but he didn't beat around the bush at all.  You'll have to wait until the end of the song to hear his...

It looks like, so far, the news on the review front is good for the last solo project to emerge from the closing doors of the old Buck Owens recording studios.  For those following such reviews, here's the latest, this one by a music critic I have great respect for---Michael Dalton. Here is...

It's rooted in the past.  It's grounded in the Bakersfield Sound.  It's symbolically represented by the changing of the guard, or the passing of the torch from the Bakersfield sound generation to generations of younger artists and fans. It's hard to define.  Some terms I've come...

Were you an adolescent that went astray, like Merle Haggard did?  Are you the parent of a child that took the wrong road? If you have a story to tell about how you turned it all around, tell it here, at the site of this brand new song.  Here are the lyrics, the recording is in the...

As promised, I started a new series at Bakersfield Sound Underground today.  It's called Bakersfield Sound Garden.  It's where we take seeds from the old Bakersfield Sound "trees," that is, music of yore, that distinctly represents the Bakersfield Sound, and the spirit of...

I'm talking about the song, not an actual guitar, but if anybody has a Buck Owens red, white and blue guitar that they would like to auction off at the song's "live" debut, let me know. On July 4th from about 8 am to 10 pm, me and Hank Ray will be on the patio at...

I recently took the words to that old Little River Band song to heart and decided it was "time for a cool change."  So I gathered my wife, my nearly 3-year-old daughter, a stack of my new CDs (The Buck Owens Studios Farewell Session), and headed North to Canada. After landing in...

------even if it's an ox. like the one pictured here, that my wife took at a little shop in Banff, Alberta.  The deadline for mix tapes or CD-R covers of the song, If You Wanna Be the Next Buck Owens, is June 30, 2008 at 12 midnight.  What will the winner of Bakersfield's Next Buck...
