In March 2006 when Dwight Yoakam got the awful news that his close friend Buck Owens had passed away, it was a shock. Only four days earlier, the honky-tonk compadres had spent four hours on the phone catching up while Yoakam was amid a 17-month world tour. Immediately after Yoakam learned of Owens' death, he and his band added several Owens classics to their set. The audiences loved the songs, and more importantly, Yoakam and his group loved playing them. By the fall of '06, Yoakam and his label New West Records agreed that Yoakam's next album would honor the architect of the Bakersfield Sound. Dwight Sings Buck reprises and re-imagines 15 of Buck Owens' greatest, including 11 top five hits, eight of which reached No. 1 on the country charts, spanning 1956 to 1967, with stunning results.
