Dwight David Yoakam turns 52 today. Known as a pioneer of the modern Bakersfield Honky Tonk sound, he is a singer, songwriter and actor (with credits of more than a dozen movies.) Active since the early 1980s, he has recorded more than twenty albums and compilations, and has charted more than thirty singles on the Billboard charts. He’s also who Johnny Cash named as his favorite modern-day country singer.To help celebrate Yoakam’s birthday today, watch him to my favorite tune of his live- off his 2005 "Blame The Vain" album- Intentional Heartache.
