ALBUM PRODUCED BY BUCK OWENS RELEASED FOUR DECADES LATER

A piece of local music history. A CD is being released today by singer Victoria Hallman, 41 years after it was originally made, and the executive producer is the late Buck Owens. Our own Jim Shaw is the leader of the Buckaroos and the handler of the Buck Owens private foundation. He wrote four songs for that album made in 1982…

Listen to Jim Shaw

It didn’t get made for a number of reasons and Shaw says Hallman contacted him a few years ago to get the old tapes, but they were gone. But an old acetate was found at a garage sale and enhanced. The CD is called ‘From Birmingham to Bakersfield’.
