Chris Stapleton Silver Wings Merle Haggard tribute live at Berkeley April 23 2016

[@bowtiezr2534]

They played this song at my grandpa's funeral. Wish he were alive to hear this awesome cover

[@ladlybug1311]

Chris Stapleton is a very rare new Country Singer. He sings Country like Country is supposed to be sung. Him and his wife handle it with care and not many people can sing it like that. They destroy it. But not Chris. He is AWESOME and his lovely wife is great harmonizing with him. Chris sounds like he was raised LISTENING to Merle Haggard ,George Jones and the REAL COUNTRY SINGERS. HE WILL GO FAR.

[@insynkfg]

Great tribute from these talented, always respectful country artists. Thank you for paying tribute to Merle Artist. This is my personal favorite song of his.

[@kathychapman1742]

NO WORDS! !! I GREW UP ON CHRIS'S STYLE OF COUNTRY MUSIC. MY MAMA LOVED THIS SONG .THANKS FOR DOING IT ...YOU AND MORGANE. !!! ROCK!!!

[@ryannee850]

Absolutely Gorgeous! Merle is smiling down...

[@sallyrutledge8238]

I am just now finding this music... it is 2022 and I am filled with memories and with the painful joy of having lived through what they are telling us. Yes,... Mickey" Raphael , or Michael Siegfried, bends those notes so that they tare through my soul. Bless them all. Nearly 75 and so grateful to have found them all before I died... Got me to reach out to people I had lost, reconnected with them and Chris and his people are the reason.

[@guitarguyjoefry]

The harmonica player has some awesome talent too. I love how Chris gives him a nod to take another verse on his solo. I can imagine that smile on Merle's face watching from on high. And we are all smiling with him.

[@johns9940]

That’s the guy who played harmonica for willie Nelson for years, he’s insane

[@elishiaphillips5749]

Mickey Raphael willies harmonica player

[@kerryg100]

[@joshuahannant2703]

this is good ol Country fucking Music!!!!!! Ah.... It's heaven to my ears

[@johndawson998]

I got to see Merle Haggard last July at Billy Bob's in Ft. Worth. It was the last time of many times I got to see him live. Stapleton was his opening act. I was thankful to Merle for introducing his crowd to this talented songwriter. Great tribute to Hag.

[@MsCatslady]

This is a beautiful song. Well done. Quite a tribute to Merle Haggard. May he RIP

[@petelynch8088]

Merle was GREAT, Chris is there right behind Merle, George, an Vern Gosdsen R.I.P.

[@troynov1965]

One of my favorite Hag tunes , he did a great cover of it !!

[@karendavis8610]

My brother favorite song rip Ricky. Love u

[@kathycollier7684]

Chris & Morgane often bring tears to my eyes. Once again it's been proven. Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. Thanks for posting.

[@tlcbearden9396]

This song was in my head the day we buried our grandson

[@krusher181]

Rest In Peace to him. Merry Christmas to you. It’s a very sad song to me also, you should check out Josh Hedleys acoustic version. It’s absolutely heartbreaking. I think it’s the saddest and most beautiful version.

[@mikebeasley6447]

I'm so sorry. I'm a grandpa too! I 'll pray for you to have peace of mind. I wish there was more that I could do but if the LORD would grant that would be more than I could ever do! ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH ME SAYETH THE LORD AMEN. GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU.

[@tlcbearden9396]

@@mikebeasley6447 thank you

[@lwild04]

Just like Jonny and June - Chris and Morgane

[@lisagreen1195]

Was gonna type something in,but I think their style speaks for itself.

[@MsHillbilly24]

Great tribute to the Hag . 👍

[@mindrestcenter4176]

Superb cover, and in the proper chords. Thank you. I've heard a lot of people play it in every chord combo there is. If it isn't in E F#m and b7th, then it doesn't sound right. I'm anal about that!

[@brendapowell9205]

MY dad died in 1997 and he played guitar and sing. He could play and sing all these tunes but I would love to know who the man is hollering WHOOOA THRU the silver wings tune. I SWEAR it could be my daddy I listen to it all the time. First time I heard him yell out it sent chills down my back

[@MrRaylorscheider]

Thank you for recording this, wow great quality! we were about 10 feet behind you. AMAZING show!

[@bblaine1]

It was incredible!

[@sharonrorie5977]

I just hope there marriage can make it just like June and Johnny , Faith Hill and Tim McGraw!!

[@4aceshigh1957]

great tribute..and love Micky on harp..

[@timsmith7151]

I can appreciate the effort, but it also brings me to realize that country singing voices like Haggard, Jones, Cash, Waylon etc are frozen in time and not soon to be replicated.

[@mikebeasley6447]

If that is true then the rest of your life and mine is gonna suck to high. HEAVEN.! I DON'T KNOW HOW OLD YOU ARE OR IF YOU HEARD ANY OF THESE LEGENDS. WELL I'M 61 BEEN THERE AND DONE THAT ! THEY ARE MY HEROES TOO BUT NONE OF THEM COULD HOLD A CANDLE TO. CHRIS STAPLETON LIVE. HE'S THE BEST I'VE HEARD EVER. OUR HEROES ARE GONE AND I HOPE THEY RIP BUT AS FOR ME I'M GONNA ENJOY THIS MAN'S MUSIC TILL THE DAY I DIE! LIKE. STILLS (CROSBY STILLS NASH & YOUNG) SAID IN SONG "LOVE THE ONE YOU'RE WITH" AND HAVE A HAPPY REST OF YOUR LIFE!

[@mikebeasley6447]

Wow awesome 💝

[@brianmouland209]

Excellent Tribute!

[@jeremyhasselbacher7228]

I like how morgane tells the sound guy to turn up the guitar volume and the tells him he's good. Shes got a great ear for sound and isn't just trying to show off their voices

[@karenjones2381]

Wow!!

[@dianarfeltner8653]

They sing that so beautiful

[@butchmccain1771]

Absolutely beautiful...thank you for posting!

[@JohnDoe-jc3cl]

I like Chris Stapleton, but he’s got to live more. I don’t know.... maybe we always like the first version we ever heard. I remember my Dad coming home from a long day at work. Him walking in the back door with the transistor radio he brought in from the car. It was June or July and the sun was starting to set. He was whistling along to this.

[@dorafvela]

Beautifully done

[@kathydavis1444]

Oh,my word!! Amazing!!!

[@nancyscott7202]

Well done Merle would love it RIP Merle

[@karenmoldenhauer9014]

Makes me miss the hag

[@sondrayork6317]

I have an AirBand receiver again "had one as a kid and loved listening to the birds as the came and went" and I bet I could remaster this song using recorded audio from it where atc or even ATRCC is telling a pilot when he's clear for takeoff lol. that would sound nest to divine, I think. "Flight thirteen eighty-six your clear to take off now" lol.

[@uen010356]

wonderfull

[@arnoldhey2603]

Could there be a better tribute by such a star

[@anitaclayborn2578]

Chris you need to do an album of all your covers!!!

[@jonathanvickers7169]

I love Garret Hedlund's cover of this song

[@jeaniebennett231]

How the hell I didn’t know he covered this?! Damn

[@user-yo6xl7fy5z]

George I am so lonely

[@JayYin100]

1:38 he was like "da fuq?"

[@platinumemories]

Jay Yin bahahahaha so true

[@byroneulo3745]

Does anybody know if Chris has this on cd? He nails it, sounds good..

[@krusher181]

I don’t think he does, I just tried to find it on Apple Music and it doesn’t seem to be recorded. Or if it is, it’s not with all his other stuff. I’m kinda pissed cuz I just spent 30 minutes finding this version lol. The slow tempo version.

[@debbiebadger2655]

😍♥️😍

[@lisagreen1195]

does nayone know if he has this on any of his albums, he needs-to record this,

[@tomjames8761]

Sadly not. He should release a live album.

[@danlamay7035]

Why don't, I have a Chris Stapleton CD yet?

[@krusher181]

Did he originate this version of the song? If not... who did the first version of the song that sounded like this? I really like this tempo and singing style.

[@michealabbott3691]

I can drive

[@curtisyost5247]

Roaring

[@scoob0920]

when you coming to Phoenix or Tucson?

[@scottfuller7059]

hell cover some Kenny Rodgers.... the Gambler

[@mikebeasley6447]

THIS IS NOT A COMPETITION! EACH VERSION STANDS ON IT'S OWN! IF YOU. CAN'T TELL THAT'S BEAUTIFUL THEN YOU ARE EITHER DEAF DUMB OR DEAD! IF THAT'S THE CASE THEN GET OVER IT!!!!!!!!!!

[@acousticroadway]

Check out my version of this great classic! of course its no where near as good as Chris's version.

[@cordellfanboy9724]

This is beautiful, but Josh Turners version is damn near perfect
