    Merle's parting of this World sure has most certainly made a massive hole in not just the entertainment World but in almost every day conversations. The missing of him on the Country Social Stage seem to.have knocked it all about. People just aren't the same today no matter where you go. Even Country shows have dwindled to next to nothin' now. In this Performance as I watch him do his great hits now it was almost as if he was tellin' ev'ry one it's not far from the end for him. I will always be playin' his tracks as if he's still here.

I was born in 56 and told at a young age that I'd appreciate this music when I get older. It didn't take long. With this mans help. The last concert I attended was in Santa Barbara county bowl in the early 80s. May he RIP.

    My wife and I saw merle at least a dozen times .the first being in 1970 and the last was in Sept of the year before he died. His voice changed over the years but it was always great.i honestly believe he was at his best in the 80s and 90s when his voice had matured and he was singing what he wanted to sing and not just what was popular.rip hag you were the best and you are missed by millions of true country fans

But there is nothing better than some of these Ole boys singing about their life, and with style and grace. Badass. Best of the best for what they were. Can't beat it, that's a damn fact. Hag to me Is my favorite, therefore, the best ever! Cheers

    He was such a cool cucumber when he knew he was ON and knew exactly how important it was for his fans to see him this way. Now, I know he had moments that he battled with insecurity, paranoia, and some other things that almost all of us humans fall victim to. My sincere hope is that at the end of his life, he had a moment of clarity and finally allowed himself to recognize just how great and how important he was! Peace to his memory. His music and the love/respect of music that he had and passed on to others, will live forever!

    There is no greater Star! Merle is the one who inspired me to sing professionally. My daddy listened to nothing but Merle Haggard from 1962 to 2004, and when he heard me sing for the very first time in my life, He put Merle down and listened only to me. this meant everything to me... to know my dad would give up his Idol for his son... I think my sister summed it all up in a single statement... "O.M.G... This is my brother? " I feel honored to have a Merle Haggard upbringing.

    Karen Enderle said it best . Hard to find any one as good . Great song writer and singer I listen almost daily I have all of his music .what I like the most about Merle he help so many young singers . And change his life from running from the law breaking out of jail . And becoming one if not the best song writers and singers of all time .

      Take a listen to The Mavericks. Comparing bands is such a waste of time. Like trying to compare apples with oranges. Each has it's own flavour... and BOTH are great!

    I was a young man probably 8-9 years old.. my folks had Johnny cash, George J and Merle Haggard!! Oh I would lay in the floor next to the ole record player and sing along to all those old tunes which many became huge hits! Funny thing is it hits me in my heart when I listen to merel over 50 years later! Greatest stuff ever to hit the ear drums!!!!😅❤

    I got to have my Hag fix every few days or I do not feel good...his songs and playing them in bands around westren Canada when I was a young man are a huge part of my life. I met my wife and formed a happy life together all because she was a great Hag fan and she herd me singing a Hag song.
    We still have a 3× 4 foot picture of the Hag in our living room...to remind us of Merle and to temind us of our start in life together over 20 years ago.

    Too many people forget that Merle was one of the greatest telecaster pickers to ever live. He could light that thing on fire, with a high hard bite on the bridge setting and a beautiful, bluesy, SRV/Hendrix like sound on the neck setting. No, he wasn't as good as Stevie Ray or Jimi, but he made every note count beautifully with his guitar playing. Even the great Keith Richards admitted he couldn't keep up with Merle on guitar, that Merle was a much better picker than him.

      Oh! He has been my Number one
      Man! Saw him twice. Loved every tone.
      I'm sure in these times and coming times he will be heard and loved all over again. They are all in tune with each other. Those old Strangers!
      Wonderful stuff.
      Gotta go because I can on and on about them
