Of all the different stages Merle had with different styles of music, this Jimmy Rogers stuff has to be some of his finest work. Love it!!
-
Looking for Bill Monroe's "New Mule Skinner Blues" and found this gem instead. Instant timeless classic.
-
What made merle so great is he never stopped being a fan of country music. He lived the songs he wrote. Most artists nowadays have no soul and have not lived their music.

R.I.P. Merle, What a talent you were, LOVE all your songs...none of the songs you wrote sounded the same as these new Country singers try to write...Yours were all so unique and different!
-
What a voice could listen to him all day
-
It's amazing that after the life he's led, he can still sing as good as he does!Definitely a living legend,who taught a generation how to sing!And could teach a thing or two to this new crop of kids, that are screwing up country music today!

A pickin & a yodelin..awesome stuff here..off da cuff
-
I would love to thank who ever put this music on this siteTHANK YOU.
-
I'm a strict Rock n' Roll man. Religious about it..HOWEVER..when fall off the fence onto the country side of life, I land in Merle's back yard. Excellent just isn't a big enough word. Thanks Merle. :)

Now that's the way that song should be sung.
-
Simply the best, No one can sing it like Merle Haggard.
-

Just magic! I stated when Merle died recently that he would live forever on Youtube and songs like this just prove it! Many thanks for this posting. Great to watch a craftsman Take a classic song from another time and put his own inimitable stamp on it.This remains a fine tribute to Jimmie Rodgers and a monument for himself, the late and always great Merle Haggard

Ditto! My wife doesn't understand why I don't like all her cop shows she watches so this is great for me, headphones and all.
-
So good I watched it twice in a row! This guy was seriously good in his prime. Love it.
-
Merle Haggard singing Jimmie Rodgers does NOT get any better. Almost better than Jimmie himself - but not quite.
-
YES HE IS THE BEST.
-
I have loved Merle Haggard since I was young.
-
It is awesome -simply awesome.Love it

That was absolutely great! I amazed everyday about the great videos on youtube. My wife got the TV on HGTV all day but I"m happy as a clam sitting here at the computer with the headphones on watching youtube.
