R.I.P. Merle Haggard R.I.P. Johnny Cash Born: April 6, 1937 Born: February 26, 1932 Died: April 6, 2016 Died: September 12, 2003 They both will be remembered for their country music
This really is something. Merle Haggard, Bonnie Owens, Johnny Cash, June Carter, The Carter Family, The Statler Brothers before Jimmy Fortune and Carl Perkins. Stirs up so many memories. Thanks for sharing.
Merle Haggard: the greatest country musician to ever live. Although, when foreign people think about famous American musicians Johnny Cash represents America. Just need George Jones and Marty Robbins up there..heck even Faron Young. The greatest voices to ever be on a stage..
Merle was a looker for sure and one of my favorite voices in country...love Johnny too! Man, the heavens sure has some very bright stars shining from above!
Amen to that. And, watching the Highwaymen recently and thinking that Willie and Kris will be gone soon too and how much real pleasure these men have given me. Very grateful.❤
Amen and it maybe hard for others to believe but if they were children of God in the end if they have there hearts to God and ask there sins be forgiven they then one day again the will have brand new body's be so young looking and never age ever ever ever again it's a promise God has made us one passage in the Bible says that in my father's house are many mansions if it were not so I would not have told you so so I go to prepare a place for you that to me makes me jump for joy and another one says we shall run and not be weary we shall never get sick we will never grow old we won't feel no pain and suffering anymore in these perfect bodies that we will have heaven will be right here on Earth if you don't know it that is the New Jerusalem is coming down and it will be right here the Earth replenished by God only to kick all the bad out and the evil and now it would be a perfect world now amen and amen
His music changed with age just when you thought he couldnt get any better he did. Living Legend in his time now hes an even a more Legend now hes no longer with us. Im Kentucky born and raised and thankful i was raised on Merle Haggard and more than a few of his songs in my playlist and im only 45. What makes even better is my oldest son 24 has him and alot of the greats in his playlist Haggard, Coe, Cash,Jennings and more. Proud papa just for that country is not what it used to be. But in lives on because of people like us.
Paulie Copez I was thinking while watching this magnificent show about Johnny going to San Quinton where Merle was incarcerated and doing a show for them. I know in Merles wildest dreams at the time he could not imagine being on stage with Johnny and both being two of the biggest Icons and legends Country music has ever had .
@Matthew Robertson Cash had Sam Phillips bail him out of a ton of situations that should have landed him in prison, more than once; but his fame and the influence of Sun Records (and it’s money) kept him from it. Luckily Cash didn’t start really raising Cain until he’d found fame or he might’ve met Merle in San Quentin another way…. For instance, he was caught at the border, and once on a plane with drugs. In those days a small amount of marijuana would’ve landed the average joe a hefty jolt in prison; the hard drugs he was caught with would’ve been worse especially when charged as federal crimes, (which taking drugs across an international border or on a plane would’ve been; then and now). But, due to his fame, wealth, influence of his friends/label, and white skin, he avoided what would’ve normally happened in favor of large fines, community service, and probation. He caught on and straightened up when he became involved romantically with the love of his life, June Carter (who’d become June Carter Cash in time). The movie “Walk the Line” shows a bit of this; albeit with some details omitted or simplified, for the sake of drama or it being counter to the story they wanted to tell. You probably knew all that anyway, I bet.
Growing up my favorite 3 were Hank Williams George Jones and Merle Haggard BUT as i grew older I added so many more. Just to many to name But in short I loved country music AND Southern and Country Gospel. Music is no doubt a gift from Our Heavenly Father. Thank you GOD!
The timeless and irreplaceable GREATEST of the greatest legends !! Sadly missed, fondly remembered and lovingly listened to daily... Thank you John and Merle, you both made our world a much better place to live...
He was only 33 years old in 1970. He was certainly out to prove that he could be the best and he was the best. He really work hard with his music, voice and his band. Bonnie Owens and Merele were so good together 1965-1978.
I knew he was born in 37 and the 1970 show was a huge night for him but never did the math. To do the things he was awarded for just a short 10 or so years from his rowdy life is a miracle and a testament.
I LOVE MERLE Haggard singing any song as he is a great country singer .The best ever .He has a wonderful twang to his voice .l have to have a little giggle to this song. ELIZABETH SCOTLAND XXXX
DAMN!!!!!! How much amazing country talent can you fit on one stage? Haggard, Cash, June, Perkins.....etc, amazing video! Can't believe this is the first time I've come across this!!
It's really hard to find this quality country music today, even on so-called country radio stations. Merle Haggard, Marty Robbins, Johnny Cash, Hank Jr., Jerry Reed, Vince Gill, Emmy Lou, Linda Ronstadt, Leanne Rimes, Dolly Parton, so many more. Thank God for RUclips and those who post the music of this genre. Uplifting and melancholy at the same time.....
Ok so I'm 17. I am souly addicted to the greats of country music. I would kill to have met merle and Johnny. There are no two men that have influenced the person I am today than them
That's beautiful :) Jesus was a huge influence on both of them, through their family and others who knew the Lord. Read your Bible, take the narrow road, through Jesus Christ, and one day you *will* meet them!
THE FIRST TIME WE HAD BEEN TOLD TO BE IN YOUR AREA WITH YOUR OWN PERSONAL LIFE AND I WOULD HAVE SAID YOU NEED TO MAKE SURE HE DOESN'T WANT TO GET TO SEE YOU AGAIN BUT YOU HAVE THE BEST CHANCE OF A GOOD DAY AND HIS FAMILY HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET THE BEST OF THEM AND HAVE TO SAY THAT HE DIED FROM THE FIRST TIME HE SAID THAT YOU WOULD BE A MEMBER FOR YOU NOW I WANT YOU FOR YOUR LIFE TO THE BEST
Hard to believe that Cash was singing to Merle when Merle was in San Quentin. It’s just another great example that America is the greatest place for opportunity. Prisoner to Country superstar, God bless these two.
Merle Haggard not only the best singer but an absolutely gorgeous man at this time in his life. Bonnie was a doll, too. She loved him with all she had. I love this video. Great performance by all.
This here video is a testament to days of future passed....a time we will never see again. This is how it is done...Live at the Ryman, Half of Cash's band, half of Haggards..... Roy, Norm, Biff, Bobby, Fluke, Marshall and Carl Perkins, The Statler boys, of which we just recently lost Harold Reid. Bonnie Owens, June, and all the rest. Makes me sad we will never see days like these ever again in Country Music.
I was raised at home listing to merle haggard and I still listen to his music to this day! When he passed away it was a sad day I will always miss you RIP
This is what I grew up listening too. Now all the great Legends are singing together in heaven. This is REAL COUNTRY. Thanks for sharing your post of these great singers. They really knew how to entertain and made it look fun. They pulled you in with them. I really miss them.
Wow, what a great video. Two legends, Carter family, look how young the Statler Brothers lare, Perkins, all of them were so young. Ireally enjoyed this video, really, really great.
Never forget my grandmother Willa that taught Merle Haggard to play guitar yes my mother is Merle haggard's second cousin it's just a big music family she got to meet all of them my favorite pictures are her with Elvis Presley when they were young.. and please don't forget my mother is the one that Merle pulled on her ponytails in my Grandpa's church to get her to scream and it's always been a good family memory... Even though I never met Earl's kids my name is Scotty too..... We all had to be separated to protect our families so we could live a normal life... Even me having a FBI Daddy watching over me... But I won't forget my Grandma will Hickman talk so many people to play guitar it wasn't long after her passing away they close the Grand Ole Opry she knew so many of them I'm just glad we lived out west and hiding because now I'm 50 years old and I'm actually still alive and I'm on the road all the time
It just doesn't get any better than that. And to think they have all left us now with only memories of the music that will remain in our hearts forever. God bless real country music.
Merle Haggard was the best all around country star ever! He had his unmistakeable singing voice, excellent songwriter, great impressions, great guitarist, & was good on the fiddle as well! I liked Johnny..but he didn't have what Merle had! Merle had it ALL.!
Just absolutely beautiful. I missed seeing John in concert. He died. I missed Merle, too. I have bought tickets to see Dolly Parton. I will see at least one on my bucket list.
These men wrote and sang some of the best music we ever had, sad they are gone.
It is sad
We Will Always Love You Merle Haggard you were a gift from God. I am proud to be an Okie from Eastern Oklahoma
Turn back the years for great country music from the unforgettable Merle Haggard and Johnny Cash.

Love these men,no country music like this anymore. It is a shame,I am so proud my grown kids liking these Classics!
So handsome, but when he grew old his voice was still as wonderful. And he could still make me shiver. RIP Merle

Haggard and Cash singing together is priceless
Haggard and Cash were my favorite singer in country music
we love you Merle Haggard from a fan from Oklahoma
This is true country music that's what my uncle and nanny reard me on.. the country music today wouldn't hold a patch to it
Never forget Merle saw Johnny play in prison and it made him want to be a performer. Now they are both famous on stage. So awesome.
Paulie Copez I was thinking while watching this magnificent show about Johnny going to San Quinton where Merle was incarcerated and doing a show for them.

@@suewalker3600 Transitioning from prisoner to music super star must have been interesting no doubt. Like being in a dream.

Absolutely. Gone to. Quick
They just don't make them like this anymore. Rest In Peace Merle Haggard and Johnny Cash.
Dwight and Sturgill are who I turned to now
Like Hank Williams jr has said they are/were "dinosaurs", a dying breed.
Billy Strings would like a word.
It just does not get any better! This was truly the pinnacle of country music. May the spirit of these greats live on forever!
Merle Haggard was a true legend of real country music loved his music he was amazing artist of real music!!!!!
Growing up my favorite 3 were Hank Williams George Jones and Merle Haggard BUT as i grew older I added so many more. Just to many to name But in short I loved country music AND Southern and Country Gospel. Music is no doubt a gift from Our Heavenly Father. Thank you GOD!
Wow! This is a stunning medley of Haggard classics, sung by Merle himself and a lot of other legends. Wonderful to hear Carl Perkins in there!

abcxyz69r True absolutely You used described with words what I would
liked to say but I’m too tired. He was the greatest.
and what about The Carter Family??? what about Statler Brothers and Carl Perkins????????? all of them are fuckin legends

They were soulmates forever
Sometimes you just forget how good Merle and Johnny were .Forgive us.

Now that's what you call country music .
This is a gem 💎 we are so lucky to find this
2022 and still watching and enjoying this incredible show Merle Haggard and more.
2024 still watching, mizz mead, a little tear running down my face.
I love that video of Johnny Cash introducing..merle Haggard
Thanks for sharing this video, I keep listening ,how much I miss them ,
Oh what wonderful music he made the words of his songs, it makes heart weap, and you free. Two greats on the stage here, beautiful
He was so very, very good. He was the best of all of our country singers in my opinion. Bonnie added so much to his talent.
Merle Haggard music will live on for every I know
Haggard and Cash together what a treat....fantastic singers and entertainer. And easy on the eyes!!
Yes! When men were manly and kind. Amazing! And I can understand every word!
What a group of legendary performers! Most of them are gone now, and we recently lost Harold Reid of the Statler Brothers. Rest In Peace.
You can keep some of these "new bands" this is timeless......what a voice
I,'ve listened to country music all my life but this is the best i,'ve heard yet
