Performed in Muleshoe, TX, several years ago. Roger learned the community was trying to build a little league baseball park, he endorsed the check he received for performing, and donated it for the ball park. Roger Miller Ball Park is still in use.
Really cared a lot for that ole guy . Used to sit around the fireplace and listen to him with my Dad If I could be like any artist it would be like ole Roger
OMG, I just LOVE HIM. Always have. Ever since I was a kid. My Dad introduced me to his music when I was little, still love them BOTH so much. Miss them both.
He was such a trip. Goofball and national treasure. His songs played with repetition, rhymes, consonance (often in the middle of lines, not just the ends) that are in the same orbit as, Dr. Seuss, Gertrude Stein, and Gerard Manly Hopkins. I don't know if he actually read the poetry of the latter two, but he's a kindred spirit nevertheless.
Loved him and Jerry reed both natural talent very funny very giving, many ppl don’t know Jerry reed a marine helped found wounded warrior project wrote a check for 19 million
Hey Bob Smith? Roger WROTE that tune. It's just sped up and rap lyrics added. He'd laugh his head off, I think. And biravioles.. that's a Roger twisted words nickname if I ever heard one: Viagra Big... er nevermind. '"The Hampsterdance Song" is a song by Hampton the Hampster. It was released in July 2000 as a single. It was produced by The Boomtang Boys, using a sped-up hook from the Roger Miller song "Whistle Stop" -Wikipedia
That man could sing the phone book and get a standing ovation...
And make it funny interesting and entertaining....
His lyrics implied more than they said. There was a detachment about him, too. He was an entertainer, but a great songwriter.
I miss Roger Miller and his music and I love Willie

Do you recall the year ?
If I could bring back anybody to spend time with.
It’d be Roger Miller
He was a great person and a joy to watch and hear. Glad Willy and the gang love him, too
Dude's like the Robin Williams of Music, utterly unique.
oh what an awesome connection you made yes I agree.
Two great talents lost, great pressure I suppose
Great comment, totally on point. We all could use a shot of Roger Miller these days.
He was funny but I think because of that he was overlooked as a serious artist. Other examples are Roy Clark and Jim Stafford

He was an incredible talent! Great song writer and great musician! He was one of those guys that made it look effortless!
Roger Miller and Kris Kristoferson were the two greatest country songwriters ever roger even wrote a symphony
Roger Miller was simply MAGIC.
Roger Miller, an icon. Absolutely one of a kind and a precious treasure in the USA.
Roger reminds me of my dad, and what a nice voice he had. He's special!
I quoted that "maple surple" line just the other day. What wonderful memories he gave us from our childhoods.
Hope this man is not forgotten.
A documentary needs to be made
As a songwriter going on 50 years myself Roger is really and truly the KING OF THE SONGWRITERS plain and simple!
OMG, I just LOVE HIM. Always have. Ever since I was a kid. My Dad introduced me to his music when I was little, still love them BOTH so much. Miss them both.
My dad brought me up on Roger and Johnny Cash, and I remember my dad singing Dang Me.
My Dad had many of his records we played them all the time. "My Uncle used to love me but she died." You left us too soon Sir.
I'm not generally a fan of country western music, but Roger Miller is something special.
ROGER MILLER...TOTALLY UNIQUE,SORELY MISSED!
"What we have here is a Shellout Falter" .... GOOD ONE!
One of my favorite people of all time!!
I'm proud to give Roger some of the smiles he had earned. What a guy!
Brilliant , funny man....I love his laugh!
I grew up with every song he sang...Had to play-em until they were wore out...Then Buy more
Love his songs love the man❤

I certainly hope not.
