Burt reacting to the Hag.. Love it. He is so dang good and his vocals are so smooth. This "old stuff" may not get all the likes and subscribes, but it is worth remembering and introducing people to the talent of the previous generations.

After all these years, Merle is still my favorite. This song and "Silver Wings" are two in particular. One day I found another which destroys me, it's "In My Next Life, I'm Gonna Be Your Hero." It's about an old farmer who is losing the farm and dying. Not exactly gospel, but so incredibly sad.

@The greatest to never live I just listened to Merle and Ray Charles singing Little Hotel Room. That was a new one for me. Who couldn't love the two of them and that song!

This is my all time favorite performance of his. I believe it to be the best his voice ever sounded.

This may truly be the most perfect Country Song.

His voice is really soo much better than I gave him credit for growing up. Everyone does Momma tried, but I would recommend Tonight the Bottle Let me Down, or Think I'll Just Stay Here & Drink. Best wishes 💜🙃

“Misery and Gin" is a song written by Snuff Garrett and John Durrill, and recorded by American country music artist Merle Haggard. It was written specifically for inclusion in the 1980 movie, Bronco Billy, and released as a single in June 1980. - wikipedia

Are the good times really over is the most timeless song he made in my opinion.

@Donnagilbert6497 Жыл бұрын

Man I miss this man. His voice, his writing. My friend and I were hanging out on Merle’s bus after a show, pinching ourselves, when Merle put the cassette tape from the show on and started singing along with it. Two feet from us. Surreal. He was a hoot. A National Treasure. Have you ever heard his “Today I Started Loving You Again”? So good. I’ve subscribed. How bout some Stevie Ray Vaughan performances? Here’s a great one to get you started…. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d62Aq5CW0Ne-daM.html

Listen to his youngest Ben! He sounds just like his Dad. He played lead guitarist for his dad at 15. He is carrying the torch! Music connects us no matter what one likes! You are awesome! 🎸🎶🫶🙏🤗Merle has a 2 of gospel albums awesome
