What made merle so great is he never stopped being a fan of country music. He lived the songs he wrote. Most artists nowadays have no soul and have not lived their music.
It's amazing that after the life he's led, he can still sing as good as he does!Definitely a living legend,who taught a generation how to sing!And could teach a thing or two to this new crop of kids, that are screwing up country music today!
Just awesome talent here; I was 18 when i first saw him play; and now i am 60; and merle is still super.............great music...................thank you....
If you like this, check out The Original= Jimmie Rodgers, "The Yodelin' Brakeman" ... A really talented musician, singer, yodeler, and Original... Gotta love Merle Haggard, though. Got to.
That was absolutely great! I amazed everyday about the great videos on youtube. My wife got the TV on HGTV all day but I"m happy as a clam sitting here at the computer with the headphones on watching youtube.
Is'nt this great!...all of this great music that I've never seen before...I missed it the first time, but we get a second chance to see all of the fantastic songs..
its hard to beat the hagg !

Looking for Bill Monroe's "New Mule Skinner Blues" and found this gem instead. Instant timeless classic.
