    Jamey is , with out a doubt, the greatest country singer we have today....end of story. He is what we used to here on the radio any time we tuned into our local country station, thats what makes him so special...he is real

    omg, i totally agree that his body language shows how humbled he is by merle. i thought it was so awesome that when it was time for the band to come in that merle threw his hand back and stopped them just to let jamey sing. . . .

    Jamey looks as if he feels out of place up there with Merle. But, he is exactly where he deserves to be. He is showing himself to be a humble and respectful man. Not to mention an enormous talent. Mr. Johnson is carrying on the kind of music Mr. Haggard, Jones, Jennings, Cash and many others devoted their lives to... And, doing it incredibly well!!

    I've always thought Long Black Veil is one of the most beautiful melodies, and poignant lyrics. Jamey certainly does it justice. Heard him sing it at one of his concerts. He really honors the old music. Kee it going Jamey!

    First time I've heard them together, looks to me like a passing of the torch. RIP the great Merle Haggard

    First George Jones invites him to sing 3 songs at his birthday bash at the opry then Merle invites him up with he and Kris... They know the future of country music when they see it... BUT Nashville is BLIND????? Let this man have his place in country music!!!!!!!!

    We had the great fortune of being there that night. Kris, Merle, and then Jamey. The greatest concert moment of my life and I have been to many. Thank you for a memory I will never forget.

    Would loved to hear Merle Haggard song this song in his heyday. He sounded so much like Lefty Fizzle when he was trying to become a singer songwriter and what a bloody beauty he became. THE BEST

    Who wouldn't be nervous up there with Merle? Jamey, just like the rest of us..grew up listening & loving every word Merle put out on vinyl, cd or whatever..it's called Respect.
