Buckner circa 1994

Recently I got an e-mail from Albert P. Pappalardo, who had a regional San Francisco variety TV series in the 1990s called Fog Town Network. Albert put up some clips from the program onto YouTube, including one from a session Richard Buckner played for the show. Watch RB performing "The Worst Way" (Bloomed) from January 1994:

Thanks, Albert!

The Backyard Dusk Info

Disclaimer: This site is completely unofficial. I don't work for Richard Buckner, so please don't send me letters directed to him. I'm just a fan like you. Also, I don't run/maintain any of the above links/lists.

To contact me, you can send e-mail to backyard.dusk (at) gmail (dot com). (This is an updated address, but the old one will still work for now.) More about me (my blogger profile).

For those wondering, the term "the backyard dusk" is from the song "Faithful Shooter" from Buckner's album Since (the song also happens to be the first RB song I ever heard, and the one that got me hooked).
