Merle Haggard and Hank Williams are my favorite country singers.

Merle and Hank will always be the Gold Standard of country🥃😎👌

Merle will always be my favorite country singer. All of his son's are great artists too but Ben is Mere All over again.

My favorite singer of all time. Nobody can touch his ability.

A great man.

[@Hagfan789]

Leona Williams was an awesome lady & a heck of a singer/song writer. She made lots of great music with Merle & the boys.

[@HughMorristheJoker]

Merle was the best.

the greatest e evr

[@MandyClark-l6j]

It always comes down to Merle or George Jones for me, as far as the greatest country singer there has ever been.

[@joanbyrne111]

I will ❤️ love love him for 😂ever

[@twoamericanfarmers5855]

When Merle says he doesn’t get personal on stage it bores him and it would bore the audience. Leona looks like she could run a knife through him lol

[@conradbouffard1532]

Merles wife is very beautiful they make a great couple❤

[@hoosierpete]

Trivia. Merle told his family he wanted to be buried with his mother and father, but his wife, had him cremated and so far has refused to let any of his ashes be buried with his Mom and Dad. Rest in Peace Merle you are the greatest country singer to ever live.

His" wife " is 🥜

[@TOM-ov8oc]

This is no exageration my grandmother brother his name was Moon Mullican toured With Hank Sr. My father was a 12 year old kid runs away from home couldnt take pressure Jumps on a freight train .he knew it was going right by his huncles house in Texas and his uncle raised him in East Texas It was Hanks Stomping grounds lol . Theres a real ugly side of the industry . But Hank Sr. Marty Robbins Merle Haggard ,Don Williams , Hank Tompson Jim Reeves Ronnie Milsap Johnny Horton, Ann Murry ,Patsy Cline as far singing voices they were the best .There were those that. Didnt have very good voices when they started but litterally gotten better as they gotten older George Johnes amazing the older he got the better he got . Johnny Cash the same exact thing The older he got the better he got . God Bless You all now 😊

[@mrbeaverstate]

Should have stayed with Bonnie, just my opinion.

[@AaronJones-uz1fd]

She favors whynona judd

[@patriciapalmer4873]

Willie's the best 😂❤

[@sylviafoster9093]

I thought the same thing@AaronJones-uz1fd

[@AaronJones-uz1fd]

Yes she does

[@galewinds7696]

Funny merle haggard would mention fuzzy Owen, they must have been close friends, they teamed up on waylon Jennings and took 4000. Dollars off him in a poker game, waylon didn't forget that. Waylon should have given merle a knuckle sandwich for that.
