    I saw Merle Haggard in 1974 at the Spokane Exposition! I had fallen in love with “If We make it through December” hearing it on the radio. My husband and I bought tickets to his show!! I’ll never forget that night!! He came and sat on a chair with his guitar and no band! The concert hall was full and he mesmerized all of those people including me!! Merle was a great show man as well as a great country singer! He never lost his audience ‘s or my attention that night! It is really something when a man can sit on a chair with his guitar and keep everyone’s attention for two hours straight!! I will never forget it or him! Have loved Merle and his music forever!!😊

    My Dad played Merle Haggard and Hank Williams Sr. songs. Back in the 60's and 70's. He played at The Maverick Club in Las Vegas Nevada. I was i Oklahoma City April 6, 2016 taking my brother in law to pick up his car he was getting ready to make arrangements for my nephew's funeral. Who passed away April 4 2016 . There was a Breaking News on the TV while waiting. Merle Haggard has passed from pneumonia. It broke my heart.My dad is now gone. December 21,2016. I Loved it when my dad Sang Merle Haggard song Silver Wings. Thank you for sharing this

    As the band played "Silver Wings" I caught myself singing (in my mind cause I'm no singer) the words. I could hear Merle's voice so I sang along with him. What an amazing, comforting to hundreds, perhaps thousands song it is.

    @anj3595 Рік тому +19

    I would think that most of his conversations of substance and emotion evolved into lyrics for a song. The lyrics are critical in his songs, but the melodies are the backbone, his guitar compositions the best. What a gift to our musical world he was and always will be. I am so happy his sons are here for us and I want all the best for all four.
