Dwight Yoakam wears his heroes on his sleeve, drawing influence from a potpourri of honky-tonk heroes, rockabilly forerunners and '60s rock icons to create his unique Bakersfield sound. Buck Owens' “Before You Go” anticipated Yoakam's signature style with its classic combination of grooving bass and tearful lyrics, while the sharp, rootsy rhythms of The Blasters' “Marie Marie” will ring familiar to any Yoakam fan.
