Here's a genuine piece of Bakersfield Sound history that any serious country collector needs to hear. Buck Owens was absolutely on fire in 1966, and "Open Up Your Heart" captures him and the Buckaroos at their creative peak, just as they were reshaping what country music could be. This album features some of Owens' most sophisticated songwriting and arrangements, moving beyond the honky-tonk formula while keeping that signature Telecaster twang and driving rhythm section that made the Bakersfield Sound so revolutionary. The interplay between Buck's vocals and Don Rich's harmony work is particularly stunning here, and you can hear how they influenced everyone from the Flying Burrito Brothers to later alt-country acts.
