Bitched-on Schlock

A nod to (Wendy) Carlos Williams
by Bryce Martin

What do you do when you have a new recording studio and you've plunked down several thou for some kind of gizmo that makes funny sounds?

A wacky Moog concept album of Buck Owens tunes played on that newfangled synthesizer dumaflogy thingie.

Ten tracks include "I've Got a Tiger By the Tail," "Buckaroo," "Sam's Place."
