Absolutely incredible! The man is older than Mathusala here, and he steps up and just NAILS IT! Not a flat or sharp note in the bunch...his timing impeccable, and he even works the microphone distance like the amazing old pro he is. Merle Haggard is THE perfect country artist, IMO.
Legendary voice...! So much respect coming from Marty to Merle. And Marty does a great job on backup. Not trying to overshadow the legend - just letting him sing. What a voice....! I've never heard nothing like it. There are a lot of great singers, but Merle has to be in the top 5 of anyone's list. He's sorely missed.
All of the 70s classic country music brings back so many great memories of me & my dad in the 70s. I was just a boy & me & my dad would go riding around on old COUNTRY back roads in Houston Co Alabama...1972 Chevy C-10 P/U...L.W.B...3spd on the column...no a/c...both windows rolled down...no p/s...8-track tape deck playing Waylon, Cash, Paycheck, Gene Watson, Tom T Hall, Gary Stewart, Loretta Lynn, Conway Twitty, Porter Wagoner, Ernest Tubb, Marty Robbins, Ronnie Milsap, Don Williams, George Jones, Tammy Wynette, Glen Campbell, Tanya Tucker, Bobby Bare, David Allan Coe, John Conlee, Charlie Daniels, Charlie Rich, Charley Pride, Lynn Anderson, Hoyt Axton, Buck Owens, Johnny Horton, Boxcar Willie, Faron Young, & I could go on & on about the great music I heard then & dearly love now!!! I can still remember my dad saying "country music just don't get any better than this!!!" My dad was right...MY DAD WAS RIGHT ABOUT A LOT OF THINGS...SURE WISH I'D LISTENED TO HIM MORE WHEN I WAS YOUNGER!!! AND I SURE DO MISS HIM...A LOT MORE NOW!!! JUST GREAT MEMORIES!!!
Merle is the working man's poet. I have a special reverence for him as at 73, I'm still installing septic systems in the country. After all - I have to support all those people on Welfare voting for Let's Go Brandon. Man can Marty pick. RIP Merle
73 and still working in Septic. You are a real American hero. I'm 45 and my dad had me out at the job site when I was 2. I don't really feel comfortable for any extended period of idleness. This song says. It all.
Pure class from five incredibly talented musicians. So glad to see Marty giving Clarence White's B bender telecaster plenty of work. It would have been tragic if it had ended up in a museum.
I think Mo Pitney met Merle at this show. Mo wrote a song "I met Merle Haggard today" about the experience at North Star Studio. Nice video, thanks for posting.

l agree with you, indeed Merle Haggard is a great and talented artist who's songs never goes out of style,he's one of my favorites artist, he's songs still and always heals the Soul, I pray God gives you lot of beautiful days!!
La verdad es la primera vez que escucho esta música y no entiendo nada pero me gusta mucho el ritmo y las sensaciones que corren por las fibras de mi cuerpo
You ever see the PBS Documentary about Merle Haggard ? This song/video clip of the Hag on Marty Stuart Show,with Marty picking the lead,is in the Film.

A True "Living Legend" Mister Merle Haggard ! Perhaps one of the greatest singer /songwriters to have ever held a pen ! Check out the guitar solo at minute marker 1:41 , by the ever impressive Mr. Marty Stuart ! SWEET !!! it don't git any better than this !
Should be the 2012 Election Motto. A real problem when you can't decide which one to donate a dollar to...the person down an out on the side of the road asking for a little help, the presidential candidate (what a waste of $), a family member and so on. This year was a real downer for kids to trick or treat with so many people not able to afford candy and sitting inside with their lights off. Working Man Blues is a real problem today no matter the president.
If anyone in Nashville is watching, this is country music.
Yess
Ditto!
Yes yes it is
Yes it is
Merle is my favorite country singer and song writer of all time.....sing it Merle.....
Merle was as fine of a poet/story teller that ever existed. Pure Americana.

Merle Haggard is one of our "Great American Poets" I shed tears when he passed.
Water, wind, or over?
Amen.
It sosad

Well there you have folks. The Man, The Myth, The Legend. This was just too cool.

Nobody picks a guitar like Marty, I could listen to him all day everyday
A genuine story teller. Real country music. What's called country music today is only CMINO, Country Music In Name Only. Sadly.
Merle is the working man's poet. I have a special reverence for him as at 73, I'm still installing septic systems in the country. After all - I have to support all those people on Welfare voting for Let's Go Brandon. Man can Marty pick. RIP Merle
What a piece of shit you are, so you're in the right business.
you almost get it
73 and still working in Septic. You are a real American hero. I'm 45 and my dad had me out at the job site when I was 2. I don't really feel comfortable for any extended period of idleness. This song says. It all.

100%
I’ll think about you when I see Marty, Harry, Kenny, and Chris at the Florida Theater in Jacksonville tonight. Cheers
Too true Cliff.
the amazing hag and Marty Stuart are two of the most legendary player, singer performers ever to walk the face of this gorgeous Earth...love it..
Love it! Haggard still has it, and Marty is keeping real country music alive.

I always wondered what it would sound like having the late Clarence White play lead guitar for Merle. This is the closest it could get and is absolutely great!👍👍
Absolutely magnificent, Merle should have had Marty with him on the road.
Killer Country right there! From two legends 🤩🍺
This is special and should be treasured.
Always same heartloving to you my lovecountrysonger genius beautifull man...RIP with my loveheart thoughts respectueuses to Haggardfamily
I'm sure glad some one is keeping real country music alive.
Love everything by Merle Haggard and Working Man Blues is one of my favorites.
I had to watch this 5 times in a row at 3 am ..thanks for sharing..yep real country and chicken picken🎸👏🏼
The man walked his talk, don't know how old he was here, but he was still working and so are a lot of others thanks to his legacy.
Marty is one hell of a picker. GREAT! Thanks.
Saw Marty and his band last night GREAT SHOW!
He is awesome, but this is definitely not one of his "wow" moments.
Vince Gill is the best. Marty is no slouch he can play anything with strings.
@Jameson Serono I think Marty is as good a picker as James Burton
Glen Campbell wrote the book on pickin.
love this great music and these men singin' it.............woohoo!and 9 kids damn prolific people here,love that GUITAR!Marty does so well,Merle's the MAN>
If you can make 1% of the impact that Merle did then you've had a damn good life.
Saw Merle live last year.....I'd gladly pay for those seats again if he came around tomorrow! Marty is great live also!
Oh merle you looked stoned as hell. God bless ya workin man!
just cant stop playing it!! It's too damn short guys!!!!! Marty WHAT a delicious solo!!! and I can't think of a more authoritative voice than Merle to sing it! It's way cool......
I'm 55 and still singing those working man blues
One of the best American songs ever.
Merle looked quite happy with Marty's break. In fact, yeah great stuff. This is something that only tele Gods James Burton or Redd Volkaert can pull off, the right way. mos60
Marty is a great Tele picker! Merle was the best Country voice ever! Real Country!
@@GBPLVR I think the best country voices ever are women. Dolly, Loretta, Faith Hill, Gretchen Wilson, Leann Rhimes...ya, women, no doubt....
Skinny P-funk and Patsy Cline
This was a GREAT show.
I really miss it.
These old legends still beat the modern youngsters 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
He wrote from the heart. Now it's corporate music. Write something real and the ban it.
No one else like Merle.
Real Country Music..
We were so lucky to have him
Fantastic merle love it thanks for this one of the greats
RIP Not only a giant of CM but of music full stop. I got the feelin' tonight the bottle's gonna let me down...I think I'll just stay right here and drink.

l agree with you, indeed Merle Haggard is a great and talented artist who's songs never goes out of style,he's one of my favorites artist, he's songs still and always heals the Soul, I pray God gives you lot of beautiful days!!
Boys and girls, this is what you call country music.....
WOW 😳😳 !!! Thank you brother 💖👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
The audience needs to all stand up for Merle.
When I was a kid I didn’t need rock n roll because of Merle Haggard.
Kenny's shoes need a show of their own.
Two of the greatest right there!
I am your nuber #1 fan along with my brother Dave. You are the best. Hazel
Love Merle Haggard and Marty ❤
I was lucky to be born sounding like Merle when i sing.
