Merle Haggard was the greatest country singer in the world and always will be rest in peace Merle love from a very big big fan from Scotland
Unreal- how did we go from this solid country gold to the absolute garbage being pushed on us today? This is music! 🍻
They turned country music into pop music it's all party music now
Couldn’t say it any better. There is no more country music
Without question, Merle was the GREATEST all-around country music artist/talent to ever walk the face of the Earth. Period. Singer, songwriter, musician, band leader, impressionist. It's a race for SECOND place. Because there's Merle.....and then there's EVERYBODY else.
Those guitar licks r only MERLE HAGGARD specialists..unmatched even today n its 2023. 4ever l❤❤
I was at this concert....the people on the bleachers were rock in it and felt like the stadium was going to fall down....his voice was amazing and everybody knew they were witnessing greatness...even Willie couldn't believe it!
When & where was this concert. Looks like a great time
I wished I was there
@@elliothagen9874 u can't read?
I was lucky enough to be at this concert as well , the crowd went bonkers when Willie came running out of the 1st base dugout.
I was there too!
Merle and I we’re together for 10 years. I produced his concerts and it was great working with him. A genius and a great friend. Bob Eubanks
OmG !! Bob thank you so much,all world class talents have WORLD CLASS PRODUCERS behind them!! Times that I was down in the ditch of life,this music was medicene to sustain me !! We'd be poor as hell mentally'y without these great poeple,Lead Belly ,Arlo Guthire & MERLE HAGGARD !!!long may they live !!!
Good memories Aussie Jim Down Under.
He sure was born to sing ...oh yes
American music I'm not sure if we will ever see someone like this again in our lifetime but he was a 1 hell of a story teller that the common man could relate to. God Bless Hag !!!

Totally agree
I agree. You might like Tyler Childers. He’s an incredible singer songwriter. It’s hard to compare someone to the The Hag.
he is one of the very best i love all of his music and its is good to see his son's carrying on his music vinnie from Dublin City Ireland 🇮🇪
Epitomized the American man, God bless the Hag😻
My brother was at this concert! But now my brother's in heaven listening to the hagg!
Merle Haggard the man and truly the king of real country music. Long live the man and his music.
When music was music, nothing better than Merle!!
Merle is the one who makes me feel american without being one; who makes me move from my town to a small village; who makes me feel a fugitive in my dream despite of my respect for law in real life... Dear Hagg, I wish I could give you a Hug ...
I was blessed see Merle perform multiple times and he was a once in a lifetime singer, songwriter and musician and performer. RIP MAESTRO!!!
Merle was the greatest country musician, singer/song writer that ever graced the stage in THE U.S.A. and the world!!! :-)! :-) :-)
Let's just say he's one of America's dumbest criminals.
You are very correct sir. I've haven't seen a lot of things that smacked me square in the teeth but anything that young man did could put me in a stupor.
You are 150 percent right .amen to that my friend .he is so miss .
He sure was . Their is some people who say allen jackson is the best he is prouble the best singing today .but not the best that their ever was no he was not . Merl haggard was the best that their was . Say people what you want but he was the best .
@@mylesgeronimo4976 it sure did pay off. Look what he got to do when he came out .no one else when came out could do whT he done did they .mm
That voice, that band, that sound, those songs, that crowd, that atmosphere!! AMAZING!!
That soulful sound.
@@beverlybryant5994 Hello. How are you doing?
U reckon they wer drinkin cold beer
I started playing acoustic guitar maybe 10 yrs ago.Never realized Merle had so many great songs. Love playing them Just like all the folks are saying .There's Waylon Willie Hank Jr.Alan Jackson Mr.Strait Vince Gill and too many other who are great.Then there's Merle.
You forgot Randy Travis
My Dad and I sure did love Merle! We would sit on back porch in the dark, I was the record changer, we sang together, loved those nights! Sure do miss them, lost my Dad in 2005!
Yep! We did too. My dad had the 8 tracks, which would play for hours! 😅
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.
All those years ago and it sounds better than anything on the radio today.
voxxe - Minecraft!
I agree - the new stuff is "New Country" yuck
voxxe - Minecraft! Amen! Met the man.

Meryl Haggard and Bonnie were brilliant

WE NEED MORE COUNTRY MUSIC LIKE MERLE HAGGARD THE BEST GOOD OLD DAYS YES LOVE ITTTTTTT R.I.P. MERLE BUT YOUR MUSIC LIVES ONNNNNN
His son Ben, seems promising and is touring with some of his family.
i love how everybody ignores the "for safety purposes please do not dance on the club level" & Merle just keeps 'em jumping and swaying and dancing, u can actually see the level bend up and down!!! 😂😂😂❤
what lovely music!!!
still.....Just Awesome all these years ago....Got to Luv the Hag!!!!
just simply the best
simply fabulous
Merle Haggard is the best.
real country music at it best.....
What great sound for an outdoor concert in 1980! Merle was THE Best!!! I am so thankful for him and his music.
You can always tell when its good music when the hair on your neck stands up! 👍
Yessss and mine did
@@sharonkelly3367 Hello. How are you doing?
Great and venerable Merle Haggard and his good and lively band. Great country songs of memorable times that will never come back. I really miss it all. Thank you so much Merle for the beautiful and inspiring songs that made us so good and happy.
What a great concert merle may our god bless you always
No one as good as they are can do any justice to any of merles songs, the songs merle goes are meant for him and him alone. Merles voice NEVER changes ever as he ages, sounds just as good
I’m 25 and my biggest regret in my life so far is not seeing Merle live before he died, no matter how old he would have been. There will never be another one like him. My band gets together every weekend to play his songs. I wish I’d been alive during this time.
@David Owen You think you have regrets. I'm pushing sixty and spent most of my life listening to rock music, buying into the stereotype that Country Music was all about crying in your 🍺 and your woman leaving you for another guy (okay, into my thirties anyhow). I just started getting into Country big-time in the past few years and Merle Haggard this year. Boy, I missed out on a lot!
Wow Merle making Anaheim Stadium rock! Literally!
such a great voice, no one will ever top him.
merle was one of the best of a dying breed. He always played Lead Guitar and Lead Vocals, thats a hell of alot more than most these so called country stars do now days, all they yell,scream, hide behind their electronics because they cant sing to save their lives and consider themselves country because they were a cowboy hat.. RIP Merle

What a beautiful song! Winderful tune, great words, makes such
emotion, real feelings, sung by my favorite singer Merle Haggard!
Merle Haggard and the Strangers. So many great musicians in the band. Roy Nichols guitar licks and solo's. Don't get much better than that. I just about wore out my VHS tape of this concert over the years.
Thanks for posting.
This is the strangers with him..but very few give credit 2 Bonnie Owens...his ex wife and back up singer for years..and several songs were written 4 her...and I'm an Owens...this music is family and heart felt
We have Always Love Bonnie Owens Haggard. Loved
Mr Merle Haggard.
We Listen to Them & Noel Lee & Ben Every Night.
I totally agree 👍 with 469. I remember riding with my father and if the vehicle had a radio it was tuned to a country station,or,at home as well. And that's the way it was in 51, and 1950s decade. So go Merle Haggard.
one of the last living legends..long live the Hag!!
R.I.P. Merle. We love ya
Merle was fabulous that day, just look at the reaction of the crowd. They could not help but want to dance to his great music & that wonderful voice. Even Johnny Paycheck was going wild.LOL!! Thanks for all the work you had to do to post this great moment in the history of country music.
As many times as I’ve heard and watched this, I JUST noticed him in the background for a few seconds.
looks more like a meth tweak to me , or cocaine parkinson's
Amen sir
Yes this one makes the brain and the feet work as one no control from the anything else
paycheck a one hit wonder, allways high on lfe
He was one of a kind!! I loved him!

Mighty Merle rockin’ the stadium with Bonnie Campbell and Ronnie Reno singing the sound behind the Haggard Sound. Little Shannon Marie Burns you see pictured here, was called home to rest eternally with God in his cradeling arms. Singing with Bonnie and Merle as she loved them. And Roy on that lead.
😄😄I'm very pls to know I'm not the only one that loves😍 the song but when last did you play it.

One of my favorite singers. I just love his rich baritone sound with his rich vibrato .
RIP

Had this on cassette we wore it out and it broke. So we went to Walmart drunk got another and headed back to the party. My Pop loved Merle I grew up listening to this music. Makes me think of Pop everytime I hear Merle.
Merle Haggard will always be one of my favorites. Love his voice...and he was always so handsome to look at as well! 😄💕💕♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Ilovemerlehaggar❤❤❤❤❤ 0:05
I had the honor to see him in Watsonville, California in 1983. He was amazing. A true legend forever ❤
A true legend !!! and this was when country was real and exciting!!!!
One of the best friends I had in my life. That I never met
So well said.
Rip hag never be another,still sounds better than anything on the radio today hands down
Merle tells us that good music is made with a great voice and great musicians playing along. It is a collective enterprise.
One of the greatest singers.
If I could only choose one country singer it will always be Haggard! I just love every song
Good country music Noel and Ben Heggard I like this song Awesome
When I was much younger, me and 8 or 10 of my friends and I would jump on the Motorcycles and go anywhere we had to go to see the Hag in Concert. We chased Merle all over the Western States over the years. Thank you Merle for all of the Good Times... God Bless You Buddy !!!
I love merle to pieces
The Fugitive - ".....moma always prayed my crops would fail!" Even Old Hippies love Merle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Iwhile momma prayed my crops would fail ,and I now realize she was not praying the crops would fail but that that they didn't ,😂
i've got this concert on vhs (shows how long ago i got it) and it's is an amazing show, Merle at his best. i love the fans bouncing it's amazing, i don't think a sign telling them to stop was ever going to work.
This is as good as it gets the great Merle Haggard God Bless Him He is in Heaven!
I loved Merle, my Dad and I sang his songs sitting on the back porch!
Merle and Bonnie at the height of their careers
she pretty much raised his sons they had a lot of respect for her
Seeing Bonnie after being separated from Merle inspired him to write Today I started loving you again. Wish we still had those types of artist writing and singing. Sadly those days are gone forever.
It just to nice to sit and watch theos videos on friday night .i love this song Merle had the voice on country music star i wonder will there ever be real country music legends like merle haggard and George Jones Johnny cash waylon Jennings ed bruce Conway twitte Kenny Rogers Charlie pride willie Nelson times have change just that new tractor rap pop that on country radio station that suck so bad from 1999 country music died if you turn any rocknroll station thay will play old rocknroll ever second so i listen to it quite a bit i just turn the raido of 15 minces CCR was on.country raido wont play nothing i hope in the next coupple years there will be know country music radio stations because thay wont even play even allen jackson and he not even old country singers i will be glad when country music radio stations are gone. Because they wont plat the country legends who made real country music like merle haggard willie Nelson Johnny cash waylon Jennings George strait Keith Whitley hank Williams jr

Biff Adams and Paul English my favorite drummers
I love this live version..crowd is crazy for the Hag!!
Merle Haggard country legend!
I just posted how much I wish I could have been here! I was little young then and lived in the upper Midwest. I listen to this all the time and even purchased the CD. His voice and essence were so cool!
That's some kick ass footage!!
I love seeing a young Bonnie out there having fun!
This is just perfect. What a class country singer.
Thanks.

Merle Haggard, and Shelley West was my first concert in Tulsa Oklahoma at the ORU Mabee Center 1985. Then I was blessed to get to see him again at the Floating Amphitheater in Tulsa Oklahoma in 1991

@@LarryBill-ei8khciao larry! 🙋♀️😍😘💘🌅
It's sad they'll never be any more music like this in my lifetime
Through a friend I discovered Haggard Back in the early 70s. I’m a guitarist and it was a Roy Nichols solo that got my Attention. To this day I don’t know why I never saw them live and now he’s gone. RIP HAGG
Very few performers today can get my feet tappin like listening to some classic Merle
Great music. Never another Merle.
I wonder if he knew how great we thought he was?
I've wondered that a bunch myself!!!!!!
Grady Bledsoe man I love your comment.
I'm sure he did.
I hope so
Not only if he thought it but now I hope he knows we still do.. Can never forget him...
I agree - look at the reaction by Haggard's band and roadies to the shaking, and how you can literally see the section moving up and down - praise God there wasn't a major tragedy there that day. BTW, what a great two-song series here.
Johnny Paycheck in red headband! Who's sitting on stage drinking?
beautiful song my favorite
Great musicians and music!!!!
Merle the Pearl! Love his music...
So lucky I was able to see Merle before he died in like 2014, he was awesome, a true road warrior
i love the sound he has a voice you cannot ignore love it
John Buckley forgeot to tell you awllllllllllllllim a pom who grew up in aus and loves all music especially country
Il piu' grande interprete di country . Viva MERLE !
He was the REAL Deal!!!!
Merle's the man
Here in 2019 so awesome! Merle one of the greatest ever, who’s gonna fill their shoes? I love his boys, keeping it real- thanks Marty, Noel and Ben! Noel the running kind... ❤️

One of the greats, lot of memories. Thanks🤠🍀
1980, glorious 1980! How I want you back again! This performance literally gives me goose bumps! Country Sounds like this actually came from Country radio Ladies and gentlemen! It did! I was there, I heard it, it is not a myth! 1980 how I miss you!
