Well, the Crystal Palace is alive and well, but how often do we stop to reflect upon and appreciate the man that breathed life back into the place after Buck passed away? That man was Clint Black. I hope the following article and the original photo I was lucky enough to shoot that rainy April...

Truthfully, Buck was one of a kind, and, sadly, there will never be another Buck. But there is somebody who seems to be standing in front of the line to follow in his footsteps. That "somebody" seems to be John McCrae, of the band, Cake. Where's the evidence? Well, it can be found here:...

What do you get when you cross Buck Owen's twang flavor, his devil-may-care attitude and hip hop music? Well, that's what I was trying to find out when I wrote BYOB (Bring Yer Own Buck). The song tells the story of a DJ who just lost most of his Buck Owens records due to some thief breaking...

Why I had the guitar with me to begin with is a long story, and I don't want to bore you with unnecessary details. It was a hellishly hot August morning at California State Prison, Solano. Not wanting to destroy my guitar in my car-turned-sauna, I sheepishly smuggled it past the prison sally...

I come to the garden alone/ while the dew is still on the roses/ and the voice I hear, falling on my ear/The Son of God discloses/and he walks with me, and he talks with me/ and He tells me I am His own/ and the voice we share/ as we tarry there/ none other has ever known/It's deeply precious,...

When Travis Barker, Blink-182 drummer joined the all-star tribute to Buck Owens at the 41st Annual Academy of Country Music Awards earlier this year, it was not by accident. I believe that the selection of band members for that performance was a reflection of the broad influence that Buck Owens...
