My Dad played Merle Haggard and Hank Williams Sr. songs. Back in the 60's and 70's. He played at The Maverick Club in Las Vegas Nevada. I was i Oklahoma City April 6, 2016 taking my brother in law to pick up his car he was getting ready to make arrangements for my nephew's funeral. Who passed away April 4 2016 . There was a Breaking News on the TV while waiting. Merle Haggard has passed from pneumonia. It broke my heart.My dad is now gone. December 21,2016. I Loved it when my dad Sang Merle Haggard song Silver Wings. Thank you for sharing this
Love THE HAG and his music. Y’all forgot Rambling Fever, The Fugitive, Swinging Doors, and Branded Man to name just a few. All in all a great tribute to a great man and a great artist. Is truly missed RIP MERLE HAGGARD!
I saw Merle Haggard in 1974 at the Spokane Exposition! I had fallen in love with “If We make it through December” hearing it on the radio. My husband and I bought tickets to his show!! I’ll never forget that night!! He came and sat on a chair with his guitar and no band! The concert hall was full and he mesmerized all of those people including me!! Merle was a great show man as well as a great country singer! He never lost his audience ‘s or my attention that night! It is really something when a man can sit on a chair with his guitar and keep everyone’s attention for two hours straight!! I will never forget it or him! Have loved Merle and his music forever!!😊
As the band played "Silver Wings" I caught myself singing (in my mind cause I'm no singer) the words. I could hear Merle's voice so I sang along with him. What an amazing, comforting to hundreds, perhaps thousands song it is.
I saw Merle in concert got to met Noel at a truck stop and lucky enough to go to one of Martys concerts and met him and visit with him he is a sweet heart. Love them all 12:34
Mike Jhonson 👍❤ /// Merle était un des derniers monuments de la country music nous reste son frère et dautres comme Willie Nelson et quelques autres..j'ai la tristesse de voir la disparition de Toby keith trop tôt 🩵[[.i love this bar ..]] thank you for all theses nice and sympathic videos
Merle has 4 sons the one in the band who plays the Fiddle also belongs to Merle..I hope they all LOVE ONE ANOTHER.I love the Haggards.❤❤❤❤God Bless all.❤❤❤❤.
Indeed Beautiful tribute Silver Wings so Love'd just as Merle Rest His Soul! Forever his music will Live and Shine Shining ON With Spirit in our Hearts 🙂✨🎶✨
I got to see in concert, but was lucky enough to met Noel at a truck stop and then Saw and met Marty and visit with him at one of his concerts. He was a sweet heart love them all.
I had the good fortune of seeing metal in April 2015 at pozo saloon was a great show pozo salon is a small bar eatery way way out in the mountains of Cali what venu sounded so good.. blessings to you and yours...
How many remember WWWW 106.7 W4 Country Detroit Michigan on West Jefferson? I spent some of my greatest years working there with so many wonderful people and had the great privilege of meeting and getting to know so many of you in the world of country music and Merle Haggard was one of the greatest and lord I wish for those days to reach out and touch me once again
Listened to it all the time in my younger years. Loved it. Country music isn’t the same anymore and how sad😔. George Strait & Alan Jackson said it all in their song, Murder on Music Row👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
One of Mr. Merle Haggard songs i really loved is “Silver Wings” because my Grandma Bodden and Grandpa Leroy Barta was their favorite song for their Anniversary
❤I Love you Always and for Life Always and forever for all lives 💕 Love you and Respect you and your Songs are Greattist of all time in life and I Love you Always Merle Haggard ❤🎉
Merle eas so good ,with alot of heart ,.,and hada Voice al his own. He has suchHandsome Sons. They are Dad made over .. He had to be so Proud of All of them.. 😂😅😂😮d
I love me some Merle Haggard he was my favorite I was born in the '60s so I grew up listening to him whenever I could I listen to him on TV I went to see his son to play the church when he come to homanoke Arkansas one time that was a great thrill too Merle I miss you the world has never be the same without you but now you're up in heaven with my daddy George Jones the possum and everybody else that you loves Miss you Merle Marty and the other boys please keep your daddy's music alive because there is no more good country music even your dad said that
I would think that most of his conversations of substance and emotion evolved into lyrics for a song. The lyrics are critical in his songs, but the melodies are the backbone, his guitar compositions the best. What a gift to our musical world he was and always will be. I am so happy his sons are here for us and I want all the best for all four.
#williamcarter6405 I was There that night Buddy! I have also played the Dome but not that Night ✌️ If I remember right Merle was 45 minutes late it wasn't his fault though I lived in Lakeside
@@Newfoundmike, you are correct Merle was 45 minutes late. We were only supposed to do 20 minutes and ended being a good 45 minute show for us. Did not mind at all it was super fun and everyone enjoyed the night. Take Care.
I saw Merle in concert got to met Noel at a truck stop and lucky enough to go to one of Martys concerts and met him and visit with him he is a sweet heart. Love them all
Merle Haggard was the ultimate cowboy, the very best song writer, he could take any song and make it sound like he wrote it. R.I.P. Merle, you will always be a legend in my mind!
I’d like to thank each and everyone who came out to share stories and experiences of the greatest country music artist ever !! In my opinion if it means anything
