My Kind of Country 
By 1967 Buck Owens had been consistently topping the country chart for almost five years. His trademark Bakersfield twang had served him well delivering a dozen #1 hits including an instrumental. But Buck was growing tired of the same formula and wanted to experiment with new approaches. His first venture outside the twang came in February 1967 when producer Ken Nelson overdubbed strings on a track that Buck had recorded 10 months earlier. Ultimately Buck and Ken had a change of heart and decided against releasing the orchestrated rendition. They reverted to the original track that featured James Burton’s sparkling telecaster guitar lead. Their instincts proved correct because it gave Buck his biggest hit for 1967. “Where Does The Good Times Go” topped the Billboard and Cashbox charts for four weeks.The single hit version is linked to above. To hear the alternate version with strings check out the clip below.

But Buck was growing tired of the same formula and wanted to experiment with new approaches. His first venture outside the twang came in early 1967 when his producer Ken Nelson overdubbed strings onto Buck’s latest single “Where Does The Good Times Go.” The original track that featured James Burton’s sparkling telecaster guitar lead had just hit #1 so it’s unclear what they planned for the new overdubbed version. What is certain is that Buck & Ken obviously had a change of heart or were unsatisfied with the results because they never released that rendition. The original recording gave Buck his biggest hit for 1967 topping the Billboard and Cashbox charts for four weeks each.The hit single version is linked to above.
