Merle Haggard Album: “Just Between the Two of Us”

Former wife Bonnie Owens and Merle Haggard originally made an album called "That Makes Two of Us." They were advised to remake the album a couple of years later and the advice turned out to be good for they scored this time with much more success. The two of the albums differ with three songs each.

The combination of Bonnie's unique squeaky voice and Merle's rugged voice make an interesting match. Liz Anderson, best known as Lynn Anderson's mom, wrote many of the songs on this album. It would be great if a cd came out reflecting Bonnie's solo career and Liz's but unfortunately that isn't likely to happen soon.

Even after the marriage, Bonnie continued to tour with the Strangers. She even was the bridesmaid for Merle's next wife Leona Williams.

Love Bonnie Owens and Merle Haggard, however, the CD is

defective and I need to return it.

The Outlaws CD is great.

Thanks for the inquiry.

You can not find any better singers doing the fine job of singing together than Merle Haggard and the late great Bonnie Owens. I truly enjoy listening to this cd by them both and I think others will too.
