    I totally fell in deep love with this record when first hearing it living on Long Island, NY. A NJ country radio station, WJRZ, AM, was playing all these great country songs..this was one of them. Thought it was a Rickenbacker 6-string, later found out Don Rich and other country players were playing twinky, twangy Gender Telecasters!! RIP, Buck and Don! You two and your band were the great ones from that era!!

    Apparently, they were soul brothers (Don and Buck). When Don died, Buck died, too.

      Buck slipped into a depression and pretty much quit music within a decade and concentrated on running his radio stations until Dwight Yoakam sought him out

      They were more than soul brothers. They often slept in the same room and there were orders to everyone never to disturb the two of them when they did. Buck's sister was a lesbian, and ran most of the business side of things, so Buck grew up with an open attitude about gay stuff. He was a highly sexed guy. Buckaroos came and went but Don always stayed and had a place near Buck performing. Buck got over the women in his life quickly and easily. But he never got over losing Don.

    This will never not sound great to me. When I was staff piano player at the Wheeling Jamboree, my boss was Jerry Brightman, who played pedal steel with Buck, and I'm pretty sure was in the band with Don just before his tragic death. I got to be a fill in Buckaroo one night on piano (at the Jamboree), which is still one of the thrills of my career. Thank you for posting this. Don and Roy Nichols will forever be the gold standard in country guitar in my book.

    I would think the statement "the only instrumental to top the country chart" forgot "Last Date" and "dueling banjos"

    • @donrichandthebuckaroos
      @donrichandthebuckaroos  2 місяці тому

      No, that statement actually didn’t forget those two songs, or any others. “Dueling Banjos” went to No. 5 on the country singles chart and “Last Date” reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
