Merle Haggard - Under the Bridge - Sometimes I Dream

Two songs from "Blue Jungle" that Merle has re-recorded for his new CD "Workin' in Tennessee". This is from Austin City Limits - 1991.

[@tedreeves7745]

Two new songs for me. Merle Haggard - no one writes or sings life like him.

Another thing about Merle is that he didn't get to a point in his career where he just stayed there. This amazing singer/songwriter kept getting better year after year after year. There was no limit to his talents. God Bless you Merle.

[@merrillprimroy9277]

I didn't think there was anyone that didn't like the hag......... what's not to like? Undoubtedly "the best" singer ever!!! If you don't like his music, I guess you don't like yourself. I haven't heard anyone that can say so much with so few words & yet........tell the whole story!!! A talent unmatched anywhere as far as I'm concerned. Too bad that other guy can't appreciate it......... his loss I guess........personally, I love everything he does........not to mention his choice of musicians.
