Dwight Yoakam — Live From Austin, TX (2-LP)
Double LP on Marble Smoke Vinyl
20-something Dwight Yoakam was literally the new kid in country music when he stepped onto the Austin City Limits stage in October 1988. But even then, as he has ever since, he was doing things his own way. Yoakam was born in a small Kentucky town and grew up listening to mountain and bluegrass music and, unlike most of the mainstream country-pop crooners of the ’80s, he almost single-handedly revived the rockabilly/honky-tonk/hillbilly sound that was one of the cornerstones of country’s formative years. Early on he discovered the fabled “Bakersfield” sound of the ’60s and adopted it as his own, in the tradition of country legends Merle Haggard and Buck Owens.
