Mit Klampfe, Orgel oder Pauke hatten die vier Liedermacher Degenhardt, Hüsch, Neuss und Süverkrüp in den späten 60er Jahren einem geistig erstarrten Wirtschaftswunder-System den Kampf angesatt. Zwecks Bündelung der Kräfte beschloß man anno '67 ein gemeinsames Programm, das jedoczh nur ein einiges Mal aufgeführt wurde: am 20. März 1967 im Sendesaal des Saarländischen Rundfunks. Über drei Jahrzehnte war dieser Auftritt nur in Buchform dokumentiert, jetzt erst liegt er als CD-Mitschnitt vor: ein überragendes, historisch wertvolles Dokument.
Two years after the first installment comes Buck 'Em!: The Music of Buck Owens, Vol. 2, a double-disc set chronicling the eight years when Buck Owens was a crossover superstar thanks to his prominent role as a co-host of Hee Haw. Buck started to slide into a rut toward the end of this run – a process accelerated by the tragic death of his right-hand man Don Rich in 1974, a loss from which Owens never fully recovered – but producer Patrick Milligan slyly disguises this trend by nestling deep cuts, live tracks, and outtakes among the best of his hits, thereby painting a portrait of Buck Owens as a musician nearly as adventurous as he was during the purple patch of the '50s and early '60s.
Bob Dylan (/ˈdɪlən/; born Robert Allen Zimmerman, May 24, 1941) is an American singer-songwriter, author, and painter, who has been an influential figure in popular music and culture for more than five decades. Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s, when he became a reluctant "voice of a generation" with songs such as "Blowin' in the Wind" and "The Times They Are a-Changin'" that became anthems for the Civil Rights Movement and anti-war movement. In 1965, he controversially abandoned his early fan-base in the American folk music revival, recording a six-minute single, "Like a Rolling Stone", which enlarged the scope of popular music…
Joe Stampley (born June 6, 1943 Springhill, Louisiana in Webster Parish, Louisiana) is a country music singer. He is known for several hits in the 1960s and beyond.
He was born to R.C. Stampley, Jr. (|1920–2000), and Mary E. Stampley (1924–2004). His interest in music dates to boyhood, when he listened to his father's Hank Williams records and learned to play piano before he was ten years of age.
In the 1960s, Stampley was the lead singer for the rock group, The Uniques (not to be confused with the Jamaican and doo-wop groups with the same name.) The Uniques were based out of Shreveport, the largest city near Springhill, and began performing in Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas. They were soon in great demand.[citation needed] In 1965, The Uniques recorded, "Not Too Long Ago", the first national hit for Paula Records. One year later, they-followed with "All These Things", which is still played on many oldies radio stations, especially in the south-central United States.

Fahey recorded two versions of this album, one in 1963, the other in 1967; this deluxe reissue gives you both! This was his second album, and the first to get any kind of distribution (the re-record benefits from better fidelity); with compositions like When the Springtime Comes Again; Some Summer Day , and the epic America , it's essential.
