I guarantee you one thing if I had got to go to a concert all the devils in hell I would been on that stage with him I loved him then and I love him now
I enjoy the live concerts so much more than the albums. They are more expressive and each song seems to come alive again a little differently. His talent is in his phrasing, and the use of his voice as expression of the music. Nobody does it better, in my opinion. He left so much great music, a poet of our day. The Country Blues was his element. He got better and better with age.
l agree with you, indeed Merle Haggard is a great and talented artist who's songs never goes out of style,he's one of my favorites artist, he's songs still and always heals the Soul, I pray God gives you lot of beautiful days…
Every songwriter should aspire to be able to write like Merle Haggard. He is the journalist among the lyricists: putting you directly into the scenery, every line as if taken from the answers in an interview about a specific situation in one's life. This is not even mentioning his incredible craftmanship as a musician; what a guitarist, what a band leader!
@@loggerjohn01 Not correct. Willie had only the line "Looking for a place to fall apart" and he presented that to Merle and Merle's longtime friend and band member, Freddy Powers. And Merle and Freddy took that one and only line (and indeed the title of the song) and wrote the song. All three - Merle, Freddy, and Willie - are credited with writing it, but the overwhelming, vast majority of the song was written by Merle and Freddy.
Moma, loved Merle ❤ When I was a little girl, She said I just want," to see him in person. We would drive Down Town Detroit. After Dad got out, Mom would turn WEXL Radio on, loud 25 miles back home. She loved ❤ Merle Haggard 's Singing. We'll Mama's gone , I have great memories of mom trying to sing, with him, those were some of my favorite moments ❤

So beautiful early morning, thinking of my past life. I dream, I meditate, my mind wanders, then it brings how blessed I am to have the life I’ve had, my family who admires me and love me for who I am. Happiness to Merle Family.
Sometimes a song just says it all; ESPECIALLY WHEN THOSE LOSE YOU LOVE are Hurting and there's not a _____thing you can do about it...gives a whole new meaning to the word POWERLESSNESS...that's what's on my ____ mind today... NO BODY sings pain like MERLE...Love you Merle

I have people ask me if I think there is a God....I always tell them there has to be someone above us...He gave the Hag something to share with people so I know there's someone looking out for us.
Read biography about Merle. Bad time for him. When it ended between him and Leona Bonnie told him she was to marry Fred. Apparently he was unapproachable for days and over indulged in drugs. Thank goodness he got through and he got Bonnie back singing with him.
