Episode 362: The Merle Haggard Story (Pt 20)
from Pioneers of Country Live! · host pioneers of country
The Merle Haggard Story (Pt 20) Pioneers of Country welcomes you to “The Merle Haggard Story” - a syndicated program originally broadcast in early 1985, including many interviews. PLAYLIST: It's All in the Game Let's Chase Each Other Around the Room Merle Haggard passed away on April 6, 2016. Not long after Live 365 went out of business, so we never got to do a proper tribute broadcast. That is until now. During the COVID Pandemic of 2020 and 2021, I got the chance to travel to a place close to home – my attic! Up there I found a treasure trove of recordings that I had forgotten about. Among them was this several part syndicated broadcast titled “The Merle Haggard Story”. I thought it would be a great tribute to “The Hag” if we rebroadcast this part of Merle's beginnings, and continuing to his mid career popularity.
