Avg Customer Rating: 
Product Description: Backed by the sterling Buckaroos, Owens's trademark Bakersfield honky tonk was grittier and meatier than that of contemporaries like George Jones. Relying heavily on the crisp lead guitar of Don Rich and the steel-guitar strains of Tom Brumley, the music possessed a distinctive locomotive rhythm. Rhino's comprehensive 62-song collection follows Owens from his landmark 1961 duets with Rose Maddox through early collaborations with Harlan Howard to his first number one hit, "Act Naturally." Owens would put a stranglehold on the country charts, reaching the top spot consistently with hits including "Together Again" and "I've Got a Tiger By the Tail." Along the way, he'd mix in Chuck Berry covers, bluegrass staples, and even a Paul Simon tune. His later work features duets with Susan Raye, Emmylou Harris, and Dwight Yoakam. --Marc Greilsamer

Customer Reviews
They're playing country music.
This is a three disc collection of Buck Owens' best material. It features nearly all of Buck's major hits, with the peculiar exception of the Number One hit "Where Does the Good Times Go". Besides the hits, a number of great non-hits are also included, This is great stuff, which I highly recommend.

Buck Owens Collection 1959-1990
This will take you back to the fun years, when country music was still country. I have yearned for years to have such a set on CD, our record player doesn't work anymore. Wow! when I started searching for CD's to replace LP's of all of my Country-Western music. These are the best, they sound just like the records, only better. If you are looking to get CD's to replace your records, this is your best bet.

Buck lives on!
Like Merle Haggard and Wynn Stewart, Buck Owens is the personification of the Bakersfield sound. This box set covers some of his very best material, and features a well-written booklet cram-packed with information to help take you through the years of one of country's top artists. Like Haggard, Buck's backing musicians are as good as they come, led by the incomparable Don Rich.

Buck You will always be with us!
Where do we start,
Buck will always be missed by us.
A great human being, A major influence on the bakersfield style and the country music industry.
A Songwriter like no other, and ofcourse Hee Haw was a great success due to him and to Roy Clark.
Now regarding the boxset, I really enjoyed it. 3CDs are packed with hits that will surely entertain you.
But, please note that the boxset has missed a number of amazing songs. So, please don't overlook buying the boxset, but also purchase:
1. The Carnegie Hall Concert by Owens, Buck .
2. In Japan!.
3. Buck Owens sings Harlan Howard.
4. In London [LIVE]
These 4 titles are what come to mind.
Thanks & enjoy,
Nawaf

buck is king
this is a wonderful box set! a must have for any serious music collector. of course, his early material is some of the greatest music to ever have been performed but also included is the best of his later 'stuff'. the only disappointment for me was/is the lack of any of his 'live at panther hall' material. A++++++++ five star box, buy it now!
