Bakersfield Documentary Making Waves

Please watch a half-hour ABC documentary out of Bakersfield titled, "The Last Band." The film documents some of the attitudes about history, music and cultural reverence for Buck Owens former recording studio where Korn recorded their first album and country greats like Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash and Buck Owens once recorded...

The controversy is not just who the last band recorded was, but in attitudes between younger bands and old timers.

The film can be watched in its entirety on YouTube.

Thanks Nick

I'm really looking forward to watching this. Bakersfield's music scene has always been very interesting to me. Some people have said that I have an old soul in regard to music. I love Merle Haggard, Buck Owens and Dwight Yoakam.

One of my favorite memories is seeing Merle Haggard with a pen and pad in hand sitting on a park bench in Redding, CA where I grew up. He has lived in that area for a long while.
