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
Personally I think Waylon is the greatest but I'd never argue that anyone who thinks Merle is the best is wrong..thank god they made all the great music they've left behind for us..I love Haggard and his song writing skills were truly amazing... Take care
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.

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.

No words for the beauty of this song and the troubled man who sang it.
Takes me back to being a kid. Riding in the truck standing up with my Daddy. Good times💜
Yes me too
Merle sings me back home every time I hear his voice 💜
I never had the chance to see Merle in a live concert, but I would have loved every minute of it with this talent.
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

@@michaeldavis7504 We are on the same page about Waylon. But Merle sure was something
@@michaeldavis7504 As much as I love Waylon, he barely wrote songs. So not that much of full artist really
Che bella canzone...una voce meravigliosa!riposa in pace amore...😇😇😇😇😇❤️💕❤️💕🎶🎸❤️🎶💕💕💕💕💕
I've lost a friend that I never met. You will be terribly missed forever. Thank you for all that you have done Mr. Haggard.

There’s no one better than he was. A real icon 🎼I❤️Merle
I love Merle, but Willie Nelson wrote this for Merle. Willie wrote a lot of hits for many people.
@@loggerjohn01
Haggard wrote the song WITH Willie Nelson.

Nobody could sing certain songs like the Hag. Tks for all the good yrs .
Mearl and his band transcend country music. Beautiful guitar, violin, sax...
Goodbye Merle! Thanks for sharing your talent and love of country music with us! RIP
In my opinion, this is one of Merle's Greatest songs!! He is like Hank Williams. They both had so many great songs it is hard to pick favorites!
Sung from the heart ♥.. Listening in Scotland. X

Red, played by Merle Haggard
Who was Merle singing to I wonder
Leona Williams, his ex wife
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.
Make a good Man take a drink lol rip Merle
