专辑介绍

by Thom Jurek

In 1969, at the height of anti-war fever in America and elsewhere around the world, Buck Owens & His Buckaroos went to the London Palladium as if there was nothing a little Bakersfield country music couldn't cure. And the London audience loved it; they ate it up like chocolate. The audience frenzy -- actual, not added -- of the first medley of &Act Naturally& and &Together Again& is unnerving. The cornball humor is everywhere and this sophisticated London audience falls for this terrible sh*t -- but the music rocks in true Buck fashion. Check out the bad-ass Ventures-meets-Bakersfield boogie of &A Happening in London Town.& Buck and crew whip through &Sweet Rosie Jones,& Merle Haggard's &Sing Me Back Home,& and &Sam's Place& before the side ends. Side two has two medleys, one of Buck's hits, &Love's Gonna Live Here,& &Cryin' Time,& &I've Got a Tiger by the Tail,& and &Open up Your Heart.& It's raw and wild and louder than sh*t. There's a short medley of Louisiana Cajun tunes before Buck goes from the sacred (&Dust on Mother's Bible&) to the wonderfully profane (&Johnny B. Goode&) to close the show. Buck playing Chuck Berry -- now there's some deep paradox that proves that music is the universal language, and the significance of it was not lost on the London audience.
