I recently purchased a CD that I didn't even know existed until I saw it on ebay. "Don Rich and the Buckaroos",Country Pickin', The Don Rich Anthology. A mixture of 24 instumentals and vocals on this cd and they're all super!If you like Don on fiddle, guitar and doing the vocals along with Tom Brumley on steel,(what a super steel guitarist!)along with all the other Buckaroos you've got to get this album.There's also some very interesting info about Don in the little booklet that's with the Cd.

I don't have the CD, but I do still have the Capitol albums "America's Most Wanted Band" and "The Buckaroos Strike Again!".
They also put out an all instrumental album of 12 Buck Owens #1 songs about the same time its called "The Buck Owens Song Book" by the Buckaroos! I don't know if its out on CD, but it has some great pickin' on it. |

Just the compilation on Sundazed Records who Buck leases his material to.
I assume they will see how the Don Rich/Buckaroos comp goes before they issue anything else. |

| Alvin, I've got one called Anywhere USA with Buck Owens' Buckaroos. One cut has Tom Brumley on Dobro and Don Rich on steel. Is there anything Don couldn't do? |

Sundazed has released a CD of "instrumental hits of the Buckaroos", which in part duplicates the Don Rich Anthology set (Buckaroo,Chaparral, some fiddle tunes), is heavy on Buck's Polkas type stuff, and includes two cuts from the album mentioned above of Owen's hits played instrumentally under the direction of Don Rich (Basically seems to be the rhythm tracks for the original cuts with a Tele playing the melody)
Unfortunately Tom Brumleys great waltzes and up tempo type stuff is not included. Only SGR, Bud's Bounce (Both way cool but Tom Cattin', Pedal Patter, how could they NOT put those on?)...BUT there are great melodic steel solos on Maiden's Prayer and Faded Love

| Tony, it's the last cut on side 2 entitled "Highland Fling". It reads: Featuring Tom Brumley on Dobro with Don Rich on steel guitar. |

Dave, there's a typo in your Sundazed link.
without checking, I'd say that the "Instrumental hits of the Buckaroos," set is a reissue of the 1966 album. Buck is leading this set, whereas later Buckaroos albums came more under the control of Don Rich, Tom Brumley and Doyle Holly. If you check out the songs on the later albums, Don was taking them into a more progressive country style, he seems to have been taken with the Band and their material.

THE BUCK OWEN'S BUCKAROOS
ROMPIN' AND STOMPIN' (Capitol ST 440) '70 Produced by Ken Nelson
It would be difficult to pick the best tune on this latest album of one of the best country bands in the nation, although Doyle Holly's vocal of "I'll Be All Right Tomorrow" and "Rompin' and Stompin'," are major contenders for honors. "Ensenada" is a beautiful instrumental; "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" is a social commentary that deserves progressive rock airplay.

THE BUCK OWEN'S BUCKAROOS
BOOT HILL (Capitol ST 550) '70
Produced by Ken Nelson
PLAY THE HITS Capitol ST 767 1971
Ring Of Fire, Last Date, El Paso, King Of The Road, Orange Blossom Special, Tall Dark Stranger, Detroit City, Gentle On My Mind, It's Such A Pretty World Today, Okie From Muskogee
** notes on these last few are actually from the original Billboard Mag. reviews. **
SONGS OF MERLE HAGGARD Capitol ST 860 1971
Originally reviewed for week ending 2/26/72 Great album . . . almost impossible to pick the best cut. Most of this material warrants heavy MOR airplay; the voices are mellow, beautiful, on "The Fightin' Side of Me," "Silver Wings," "Okie From Muskogee." This band sells well and this is possibly their best musical effort
DON RICH & THE BUCKAROOS
That Fiddlin' Man
Capitol ST 643 (S) 1971
Don Rich doesn't fool around while he fiddles, and he sure can play a mean one. A driving "Orange Blossom Special" opens the album that continues to move throughout with expert accompaniment supplied by the Buckaroos. Most of the tunes are originals, and the standouts include "Pretty Girl Hoe-Down," "Cajun Fiddle" and "Down on the Bayou
BUDDY ALAN & DON RICH
We're Real Good Friends 1971
Producer(s): none listed
Capitol ST 769 (S) Buddy Alan and Don Rich, both of whom are key segments of the Buck Owens show (Don is leader of the Buckaroos), are a natural to cut an album. Their work is spirited and loaded with talent. Package includes their recent hit, "Cowboy Convention" and the featured item, "I'm on the Road to Memphis."
