| I hear a piano after the steel break but I don't see any piano and it looks like Buck wants to come back in singing before the steel break is done, Is this a lip sync ? |

not a lip sync. i imagine the piano is just off camera, orchestra-pit type thing.
it's unfortunate that Buck was just about to replace the steel with a keyboard.
and a banjo.

| jd is absolutely one of my favorite gods...but it seems he wasn't that comfortable filling tom's or other buckaroo shoes for buck...who i'm sure was some kinda @$$hole...jd's so much better and 'more' than this...then when tom replaced jd (who absolutely 'made' the desert rose band) the music became 'blander', even with the genius of brumley. |

Thanks Scott.
I play in a Buck Owens tribute band, and it's great to see what Jay Dee played in a live setting. He's one of the masters in this style. |

i really dig this style. i know JayDee moved past this, but the stuff he played with Buck and the Byrds and the Int'l Submarine Band are some of my favorite sounds in all of music.
so cool to see the Maness-era Buckaroos in action!

All the "Buckaroo" performances on "Hee Haw" were to tracks. Buck recorded all the songs in his studio and used them on the "Buck Owens Ranch Show", and would turn around and use the same track on "Hee Haw". The only thing that was live were the vocals and a very occasional solo.
It's in Buck's autobiography, also his Obituary on Bakersfield.com, and he says that was the reason the producers of "Hee Haw" made him cancel his "Ranch Show". Each week he was doing the same song to the same tracks on two different shows.
There is a new Buck biography coming out in aug.

Jay Dee sounds as if he's channelling Lloyd on "Hello Trouble"!

Wow, thats the first time I ever heard Buck refered to that way. I wonder why Jim Shaw, Terry Christoferson, and Doyle Curtsinger stayed with him for over 30 years.(last Buckaroos) I really don't care Buck and the Buckaroos were the best pro band ever imho. Todays "Stars" only wish they were that good. |

| i meant (with the greatest respect) that as a businessman i'm sure he was a 'one man show'! i dug buck... and the story of his last night at the crystal palace is killer....wasn't feeling well, was going home and met some fans in the parking lot who had come a long way to hear him so he went back in and performed and died that night. so he had some kinda heart. i think he may have put pressure on jd to sound some like brumley..maybe..somewhat stifling jd's natural thing. |

| I read somewhere(GP maybe?) that Buck required JayDee to replicate Tom Brumley's parts exactly on live performances.JayDee,the story goes,didn't do Tom's parts closely enough to satisfy his boss(the story also goes that Buck's insistence on perfection was greater than what he was willing to pay for it)and JayDee was let go. |

I never heard that... wonder if it's true? There was no steel for a few years after JayDee so it seems like Buck was trying to get away from that sound altogether.
On the London recording he introduces JayDee as "what we consider to be a great, great... one of the world's greatest steel guitar players."
I always thought they really dug what he was doing, and it was clearly different than the stuff Brumley played. I also suspect Don Rich had a lot to do with getting JayDee hired, but why did Tom leave in the first place?

I've heard that Buck didn't get to be a multi-millionaire by over paying people. From stories I've heard, back in those days, Buck was real tight, and the band was on a subsistence salary. I think that had something to do with Willie & Tom splitting.
Scott, I agree that the playing is great, but JayDee now plays phenomenally, and seems to attack the neck in a much more up and down the neck style, rather than across a bar position (like most of us do) and like he seemed to be doing more of then. Does this make any sense? I'll go out on a limb and say that IMHO JayDee is one of the best and certainly the most exciting steeler playing today.

Ask Ronnie Jackson what was wrong with Buck, he will most likely fill your ear full. By the way, IMHO There is no one I ever heard that plays or sounds like JD, no one compares and I have been listening a long long time.

"exciting" is definitely the word I would use to describe JayDee's sound, then and now...

Jaydee rules. He has two excellent instructional dvds for sale on his website. If I remember correctly in one of them he describes his time with Buck favorably.
a friend of mine met Buck and said he was super nice, let him play his guitar even.
I think I remember an interview with Tom Brumley in which he described the circumstances that led to his departure from the Buckaroos. Maybe it was even on the forum...? |

| I've known Jay Dee many years; IMO, it doesn't get any better, an amazing musician. Just a great guy and I'm proud to call him my friend. |
