[@devakikaren]

[@mickkollins]

Don Rich a BIG part of Buck's show along with Tom Brumley on pedal steel

The Bakerfield sound beats out what ever that sound is called in Nashville today.

[@TerryBusch-l8c]

You forgot to mention Dwight Yoakum.

I’m my opinion this is when country became a more distinct style. Even Western Swing had heavy jazz influence but the Bakersfield sound was 100% “country” I think it even solidified the idea of being “country.” That being said it’s not my favorite sound. And country only proceeded to get less interesting until people like Colter Wall came out and brought back the folk influences.

korn are from here iam sure

[@JoKiR90]

They are. Jonathan Davis uses Buck Owens studio. He might even own it, I’m not 100% sure. He and Jonathan Davis’s father and grandfather were good friends.

yes and the deathrock band burning image.

@@JoKiR90 You are correct KORN did utilize Bucks old studio, but it's been closed now for years.

[@SuperLuzania]

When I drive to L.A. , I don't stop in Bakersfield. I won't spend even a nickel. Too many racists in that part of the state.
