I've Got a Tiger by the Tail

by Buck Owens & The Buckaroos

I've Got a Tiger by the Tail cover art

Propelled by Don Rich's twangy Fender Telecaster, Buck Owens codified the driving, electric Bakersfield sound on this Capitol release. The band utilizes a prominent backbeat and sharp fiddle arrangements to counter the heavily orchestrated, string-laden country music coming out of Nashville.
