WELCOME TO LPCDREISSUES
When he moved his operation to Bakersfield in 1967, maverick producer Gary S Paxton thumbed a nose at country convention and charted his own, heavily experimental course as an unwitting pioneer of country rock. Drawn from the vaults of Bakersfield International Productions are two dozen late-60s gems featuring Clarence White, the Nashville West band and many other notables.
