Remembering Bucks Burnett, who built up a lifetime of awesome stories about the Dallas music scene.
You didn't go into Bucks Burnett's exclusive record store just to buy records. You didn't go to the 8-Track Museum he ran in Deep Ellum just to look at old cassettes.
Bucks' career and legacy are hard to categorize because they took so many forms over the course of his life in Dallas. He'd been a musician and a producer. He managed musicians — such as the latter half of novelty music maven Tiny Tim's career. He was a promoter and producer of shows that launched his insane ideas and genuine love for music. He curated a museum of 8-track tapes on Commerce Street in Deep Ellum.
Bucks started his music career at age 16 years with a job at the Hit Records store in Oak Cliff. He went to found and own several of his own music stores, which were usually tucked away in underground locations with almost no advertising and often odd hours. Burnett had boundless ability to connect with people and built a massive community of friends in Dallas. Lane first met Bucks when she was just 11 years old and trying to start her musical path with her own band. She ran into Burnett two years later while selling records at the Dolly Python vintage store.
