Buck 'Em! : The Autobiography of Buck Owens

Buck 'Em! : The Autobiography of Buck Owens

Born in Texas and raised in Arizona, Buck Owens eventually found his way to Bakersfield, California. Unlike the vast majority of country singers, songwriters, and musicians who made their fortunes working and living in Nashville, the often rebellious and always independent Owens chose to create his own brand of country music some 2,000 miles away from Music City - racking up a remarkable 21 number-one hits along the way. In the process he helped give birth to a new country sound and did more than any other individual to establish Bakersfield as a country music center. In the latter half of the 1990s, Buck began working on his autobiography. Over the next few years, he talked intothe microphone of a cassette tape machine for nearly one hundred hours, recording the story of his life. With his near-photographic memory, Buck recalled everything from his early days wearing hand-me-down clothes in Texas to his glory years as the biggest country star of the 1960s; from his legendary Carnegie Hall concert to his multiple failed marriages; from his hilarious exploits on the road to the tragic loss of his musical partner and best friend, Don Rich; from his days as the host of a local TV show in Tacoma, Washington, to his co-hosting the network television show Hee Haw; and from his comeback hit, Streets of Bakersfield, to his induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame. In these pages, Buck also shows his astute business acumen, having been among the first country artists to create his own music publishing company. He also tells of negotiating the return of all of his Capitol master recordings, his acquisition of numerous radio stations, and of his conceiving and building the Crystal Palace, one of the most venerated musical venues in the country.

GUNS N' ROSES FAQ - All That's Left to Know About the Bad Boys of Sunset Strip

Thirty years ago this July, five L.A. punks unleashed their debut album upon the atrophied and decadent rock charts of Reagans America. Within weeks, Appetite for Destruction ascended to number one on the U.S. charts; to date, Appetite has sold morethan thirty million copies, making it the bestselling U.S. debut album of all time.To say that Guns N Roses redefined rock n roll is akin to asserting that Jimi Hendrix revolutionized surf music - a statement that, while technically true, doesmore to conceal the truth than elucidate it.GNR turned back the tide of MTV-spawned New Wave/synth pop by infusing the blistering hard rock of Led Zeppelin and Aerosmith with a punk sensibility that hearkened back to the onstage anarchy of theStooges, New York Dolls, and Sex Pistols. In Guns N Roses FAQ: All Thats Left to Know About the Bad Boys of Sunset Strip, Rich Weidman charts the amazing journey of this seminal record and the band behind it. From the gutters of West Hollywood tothe Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, from Appetite to The Spaghetti Incident?, these 400 pages of hedonistic nihilism, salacious debauchery, and raw, unadulterated rock are guaranteed to turn your head, blow out your eardrums, obliterate your comfortzone, and leave you begging for more. Written in Backbeats popular FAQ format, Guns N Roses FAQ breaks the bands story into a series of chapters equally suitable for a straight-through read or piecemeal consumption.Weidmans treasure trove offacts, trivia, stories, and photographs touch on every topic imaginable. Subjects explored include the bands earliest influences and venues, most notorious concerts and opening acts, highlights from their seemingly endless Appetite for Destructionand Use Your Illusion tours, bizarre TV appearances (like the time they destroyed the set of MTVs Headbangers Ball!), public and private feuds, music videos, best and worst covers (Pat Boone, anyone?), and much more. From the golden years of thelate eighties and early nineties to the outrageous antics and self-destructive tendencies that to irreconcilable inner turmoil, from the bands West Hollywood club days to the reunion of three of the five classic band members during the 2016 Not inThis Lifetime Tour, Guns N Roses FAQ paints a portrait replete with sheer talent, raw power, dangerous rivalries, rock excess, and sudden reconciliation thats simply unrivaled by anything else on the market.
