I haven't done any Los Angeles music scene - past or present - mixes this year, so I thought it
was high time for a 1960s Bakersfield Sound comp. And while there were a bunch of good acts during this time, Buck Owens, Merle Haggard, and Wynn Stewart were in a league of their own. I tried hard not to use too many of their standards, but sometimes a boy just can't help himself.

Thank you very much Ishkabibliophile my favourite country singers :)
Wow - great compilation. Some I know and most I don't. Thank you.
@zephyr and Gram Lynch,
Quite welcome. Not everything the Bakersfield boys released in the 1960s was a gem, but damn, they had a really high batting average given how much stuff they put out.
Many thanks Ish. I must have missed this awesome compilation on my last visit. I can't wait to spin it.
@Lakercrazy,
Hard to go wrong with Buck, Wynn,and Merle, right?
Ish
any chance of a re-up?
Ask and ye shall receive. Consider it done.
Ish
