I first learned about the music of Lefty Frizzel, Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys, and Jimmie Rodgers thru Merle Haggard. Merle was not only the greatest singer/songwriter ever, he was a music historian who introduced the music of those great stars to subsquent generations. Thanks for posting.
Thank you Shakey for this great video. He sounds so good singing Lefty songs. He was at his best about this time However. When wasn’t he at his best 😊. ❤❤❤❤❤
I love the way Merle changes his voice a bit when he sings old Lefty tunes...Great video Shakey.
My first time hearing Merle sing a song I've heard Lefty sing hundreds of times. Thank you... awesome.
Love this

Such blessings to hear precious enjoying music again
