CD Reviews

Great disc for the Buck Owens fan
fra7299 | California, United States | 01/05/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Although it took quite awhile to get here, this imported cd is a great and comprehensive cd for the Buck Owens fan. It has forty hits and is a varied sampling of Buck Owen's legacy as a country star. The great thing about this record is that is chronicles the past and present, having hits like "Streets of Bakersfield" on one of the discs. Another aspect of this cd is its great quality; the sound is exemplary.



The influence Owens had as a country artist is really illustrated in this cd, as there are many songs in here that you have probably heard in shows, movies, or remakes, namely "Act Naturally", "Johnny B. Goode", and "Under My Spell." One of my favorite songs is "Sam's Place." This is a fantastic CD to add to your collection, especially if you are a country music fan!"
All Of Buck's Best Hits!

"Buck Owens and his famous band The Buckaroos not only had a major impact in Country music but also in Rock n' Roll too.With his hugely successful 'Bakersfield Sound' Buck achieved an impressive amount of hits throughout the 50's,60's and 70's.

This collection includes all the big hits such as I've Got A Tiger By The Tail,Together Again,Waitin' In Your Welfare Line and Love's Gonna Live Here.

Other classics include Act Naturally,Cryin' Time,Who's Gonna Mow Your Grass,Johnny B Goode plus his two Bluegrass-inspired songs Ruby(Are You Mad) and Rollin' In My Sweet Baby's Arms.

Buck's classic Bakersfield sound kept country radio close to it's roots during a turbulent time and his songs still live on today.This fantastic collection is a must have for any true country music fan.You can't go wrong with this gem..."
