  • 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.

      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.

    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 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.

    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.......

    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

  • @kevinknight470
    @kevinknight470 Před 4 měsíci +2

    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. 😃

    • @DamGreek
      @DamGreek Před měsícem

      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

    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.

    I'm confused... His family settled in Phoenix in 1968 because of a trailer malfunction. In the 9th grade he by what the video makes it sound like he moved to Bakersfield. Just a few seconds later it says the Owens family found themselves in "Bakersfield". Make up your mind, did he move there by himself, or with his family? This is probably a BS video. I'm done watching.
