I remember my past Father-In-Law years ago who lived in Oildale took me over to Trout's several times. They all knew him by his first name & we had a great time playing Pool together. No bands there those nights but nevertheless a very bonding & memorable moment I will never forget.

Don’t forget Tommy Collins. I went to church with him and he sang in church.

I like his signature cocktail.

Very interesting

[@reddeserted13]

Merle is the GOAT for sure, but Buck is my favorite 😊

[@reddeserted13]

Macon, GA is like black Bakersfield, or Bakersfield is the white Macon. I mean that sort of jokingly but also honestly.

[@cambionfilms3375]

Bakersfield is mainly hispanic though lol

All towns and cities have their own bands that make that their sound. Los Angeles doesn't say System if a Down, Guns n roses are the Los Angeles sound even though those bands are from los Angeles. Bakersfield tries to make themselves seem unique

It was a change in country music history the bands you mentioned were not a change of rock history. The Bakersfield sound is a sub-genre of country music developed in the mid-to-late 1950s in and around Bakersfield, California. Bakersfield was the first subgenre of country music significantly influenced by rock and roll, and, as a result, the first to rely heavily on electric instrumentation and a defined backbeat.
