Buck Owens was one of the popular American musicians, singer, songwriter, and bandleader in the 1940s to 2006. During his musical career, he had 21 number 1 hits on the Billboard country music charts. His signature style was based on simple storylines, infectious choruses, twangy electric guitar, insistent rhythm, and two-part harmonies featuring him and his guitarist. In addition, he was a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame.

However, Owen died on March 25, 2006, because of a heart attack only hours after performing at his Crystal Place restaurant in Bakersfield. Back then, he had suffered from oral cancer, pneumonia, and minor stroke. The health problems had forced him to curtail his regular weekly performance at his Crystal Palace.

He was indeed a great friend and leader to his bandmates and friends. Now, as we remember Buck Owens, let us look back on one of his greatest hits in the ’60s, “Love’s Gonna Live Here.”
