There really isn't much to write about a Haggard live cd as most of us know we are getting pure, unwatered down and undiluted country music. From a country music icon and living legend.
As with any live cd or studio for that matter Merle is backed by his road band of all these years "The Strangers" For a man who is nearly 70 years old, While his age is showing on his face is voice is still as crisp and smooth as blended whiskey. Though Okie From Muskogee isn't here, he makes up for it with all his other hits. He pays tribute to "All the Johnny Cash Fans" with a steller cover of "Folsom Prison Blues" He also hasn't forgetten his other musically hero's Jimmie Rodgers and Bob Wills. He features Freddy Powers long time member of "The Strangers" on Ol' Country Singer in both the live and studio ver. Despite the fact I have 3 other live Hag cds. This is a great addtion.
Absolutely one of the best Merle Haggard cd's. I am a big Hag fan and I love everything about him. You will love this Live at Billy Bob's!
