The Tears of Bakersfield

I'm sure there's a lot of sadness in Bakersfield, California, on the passing of Buck Owens today. My Dad has lived in Bakersfield for the past 20 years, and has gone to knowing little about Owens to thinking he's one of the class acts in show biz, and I'm sure that's a popular sentiment in Bakersfield. His Crystal Palace may have been Bakersfield's greatest entertainment offering.

Garland Jeffreys

Hard to believe it's been over 20 years since he cut Ghost Writer (nearly 30) and Escape Artist. Apparently he took about a ten year break from recording for family life, and a dissatisfaction with the music industry. But now he's back. If you need a primer for Jeffreys, check out the Wild in the Streets compilation.
