Although he ended up being viewed by much of the public as more of
a caricature than a true country innovator (thanks, no doubt, to
his years as one of the comedic hosts of Hee Haw), Buck Owens was
at heart a top-notch honky tonker who, along with Merle Haggard and
Owens' fiddle player turned guitar player Don Rich, helped
establish the bright, rock-inflected Bakersfield sound in the
mid-'60s. This two-disc set has all the commercial essentials,
including versions of "Act Naturally," "My Heart Skips a Beat,"
"Under Your Spell Again," "Streets of Bakersfield," and "I've Got a
Tiger by the Tail," making this an OK introduction to Owens'
singular and impressive country legacy. ~ Steve Leggett
