A Posthumous Obit For Buck Owens

Buck's version of Dylan's "Love Minus Zero" is a thing of deathless beauty. Also, that's an excellent yellow suit he's wearing.

The section about his death on Wikipedia is amazing. To summarize, he was going to skip his show that night at the Crystal Palace because he wasn't feeling well, ran into some of his fans who drove from Oregon to see him on his way out, and decided to play the show. He died in his sleep that night.

My Dad is a huge Buck fan and I met him a couple of times in my youth before I realized his influence and talent...Now I listen to Owens just as often as I listen to Muse or Radiohead...

Aren't all obituaries posthumous?

His guest spots on various Dwight Yoakam albums--starting with a duet of "Streets of Bakerfield"--are really worth checking out.

.....Still a-pickin' and a-grinnin. Like I didn't have enough Hee-Haw forced on me growing up!
