I'm 82...been a Merle fan about 60 years....saw many concerts, met him an Bonnie..took pictures with them ..got a lot of Hag items autographed..got to go backstage at a local concert...I'm old now...but I still have my Merle memories...miss him...
You are very fortunate to have those memories. I'm nearly 60 and right behind you. It sucks to get old but his music comforts. I think his youngest son sounds the best
There's nothing like sharing great art with the artist. The day will come when you will hear Merle perform live again. Hank, Johnny, and Lefty will be there too.
I cried listening to "Mama's Hungry Eyes" sang by Marty. Merle Haggard had touched many people's lives with his songs about the different struggles in life that most people experience up to this day. Thank you for sharing this tribute.
What a legacy! I'm pretty much speechless. I grew up listening to Merle and so many other great artists from all genres of music but as so many others have said: music is music no matter what you call it and brings us all together as human beings. Thanks for sharing this tribute. Merle, you won't be forgotten.
The best about my favorite, Merle, is his sons are carrying his music on. They are each very special and have that “that sound”. Makes me cry. I hope they have an idea of how loved they are.

Howdy y'all: Marty Haggard said it all. REAL Country music is dying out!! I was raised on the REAL stuff, and I miss it terribly. This rock n roll crap they try to pass off as Country music these days makes me sick. Putting in a steel guitar or a mandolin in a song, DOES NOT make it Country music. Just my $0.02. Stoney
Daryl Singletary sounds just like Merle. Country music lost a great legend when Merle died, and lost a future legend when Daryl died. Rest in peace Gentleman.
I'm listening to this in N. Ireland, I have loved listening to country music most of my life and I am 79 this year, I am sitting listing to this show and I wish I could have been there, just fantastic, loved playing Merles music, thank you, Richard.
Close your eyes when Ben sings, he sounds EXACTLY like Merle, he is an example of how country music has changed. Ben should be a SUPERSTAR! I absolutely love his voice! He can pick too!
Burrow miss you, buddy oh how we miss you I love you singing. I still love to sing your songs. If you are not father I would have found you an angel flying to close you. Do you know that he did it?
Marty haggard your our 2nd cousin , my sister dolly trees has a photo of your dad on her car along with our uncle and a friend he said one day he would be one of the biggest singers and song writers in the world,
Ben omg you sound just like your dad when he your age, thank you for carrying on your dad tradition youngman I love it,god bless you and your brothers,
I thought that i was fortunate enough to see Merle in my hometown. That was not to be. Merle canceled due to back problems and he never rescheduled. Breaks my heart still
😮 5:18 happy birthday, my man they don’t make love like they used to. They don’t make more like they did before we’re gonna take Willie so, send him your way. Maybe you’ll play
My goodness I so hate to see the writing on the wall and that reads “Highway Men brace yourself because I won’t be long getting home with you. I am leaving country quality behind. I will tell you all about it soon!!
18:43 … When Anderson says, “somebody write that down” I think he meant- as an industry-connected fixture- that THAT was a great opening line of a song. I think it was a suggestion! I haven’t heard anything that suggests anyone took him up on it….
As many times I’ve seen the Hag in concert and my playlist on my phone consist of over 40 songs I would pay good money to see Ben Marty Noah in concert just doing nothing but hag songs…

Hes got a beautiful voice ❤
I'm glad Country Family Reunion put this on . John Conlee is great singing Merle Haggard songs.
Ben has that beautiful relaxed style of voice that put merle at the top of country singers
For sure ht. I think he sings better than the other 3 sons. Plays guitar better as well but Marty is the richest.
Marty sounds just like his daddy! LOVE it and loved Merle! My former TV boss Chester Smith was Merle's best friend.
What a blessing that had to be
I could listen to these tributes to Merle every day!! His sons are incredible, they are awesome! I love Merle Haggard! ❤️
I’m so happy to see this .

Ben sounds just like his daddy. He's got that voice Merle had. Ben that was beautiful.
I love all old country singers

Merle was one of the greatest…saw him,George,and Conway in concert together what a concert

We got to see the great Merle Haggard at the Golden Nugget in Las Vegas about a year or so before he passed. We will never forget it.
I thought that i was fortunate enough to see Merle in my hometown. That was not to be. Merle canceled due to back problems and he never rescheduled. Breaks my heart still
Marty sounds like Merle when he was younger
Marty Haggard did a song called “Here In The After Life” fantastic song!
became a fan of The Hag after reading his story in Time magazine. Loved the picture of him with one of his model railroad sets
Awesome ❤️🩹👌👌
Love the music 🎶
Amazing how they all sound like Merle love it 😊❤

Marty talks like him, Noel looks like him, and Ben sings like him.
