 I wrote this song after putting George Jones in my CD playerand never changing the CD, all the way across town to work and back everyday for a week and all the way from LA and back.     I recorded it in my home studio, recently named the Buck-a-Room, in honor of Buck Owens...

If Jerry's Trout Pizza ever catches on, I want to be one of the delivery boys.  In my humble opinion, the Bakersfield music scene is struggling to find itself, after a post-Bakersfield-Sound-post-Korn identity crisis.   In my opinion, there exists a collosal generation...

Welcome to the "Too Bad it's not the Cousin Herb Show" Show. Welcome to Dr BLTv.  I'm Dr BLT.  I'll be your host and blog VJ.  Today we're going to witness the chemistry between Oildale's native son, and Bakersfield's pride and joy, Merle Haggard, and George...

Step right up, come on in If you'd like to take the grand tour Of a lonely house that once was home sweet home I have nothing here to sell you Just some things that I will tell you Some things I know will chill you to the bone There's no way of making grief feel good, but the best way to...

Has anybody seen this old girl around?  If you have, give her my regards. Stories and Songs from The Streets of Bakersfield is a series based on the huge hit Homer wrote for Buck Owens---The Streets of Bakersfield.  The stories, and the songs are born from conversations I have with...

We'll meet you at Zingo's Cafe patio right next to The Boss lounge noonish today for a HooteNOONee.  We're going to bring one of the statues standing at the Crystal Palace come to life today, that bronze giant being George Jones. Today, Jim Jones and myself, God willing, will...

That's the first question.  The second one is this: Which one on the picture runs Trout's and is poised to be a major player in the changing of the guard from the Bakersfield Sound pioneers and those torch-bearing Bakersfield artists most heavily influenced by their music? ...

This will be done with Ferlin Husky songs I've never heard before, so it should be an interesting experiment.  All of my experiments are done for the sake of finding a brand new Bako sound.  Many of my experiments in the past have flopped, so attend this FEARLESS FERLIN FEVER...

 Good morning, Bakersfield! I'll be heading out to the site of the Buck Owens recording studios to (God willing) record a handful of tunes paying tribute to the history of this place, in the process of closing its doors. Songs to be recorded include There's a Ghost in This...

 That would be my prediction.  It may be old, but I believe it's the new Blackboard.  It even houses a new Blackboard stage. Trout's is fertile ground for a Bakersfield Sound revival and a spawning of a whole new generation to move the Bakersfield Sound movement forward. Trout's...

The new Bakersfield Sound underground movement is at hand, and what is a movement without a mascot?   I hereby nominate this dog, last spotted at Trout's as the mascot and symbol of the new sound to emerge from The Streets of Bakersfield, born of the old Bakersfield Sound movement, and...

 The idea for Phat Sounds, a compilation CD featuring various B-town acts, was inspired by the Beach Boys Pet Sounds CD, and by Fat Tracks, which was the cradle that brought two distinctly Bako sounds into the world: the Bakersfield Sound and Nu Metal.  The result...

 The song is called Phat Chance, and it's about my sense of regret over being too cheap to record at Fat Tracks (though I came close on a couple of occasions).  In opting to be a cheapskate, I robbed myself of the opportunity to be where two unique Bakersfield sounds were created, the...

As Gomer Pyle used to say, "Surprise.  Surprise." (On TV land, folks, please, I'm not that old :)! Certainly, when I introduced this contest, I wasn't expecting the first contestant to be female.  I didn't picture "a young buck" in the form of a...
