Honky Tonkin' In Bakersfield


The Bakersfield Sound was kind of the Punk of its day.  A reaction to the slick sound that was coming out of Nashville at the time, it was as rough and raw as the honky tonks that nurtured it.

Buck Owens was one of the pioneers of the Bakersfield Sound.  He was born on this day in 1929.
