Roger Miller Medley Hits 1964

[@decoandthedusters]

They just don't make entertainers like Roger anymore! Truly one of a kind.

[@jackwalker1822]

King of the Road, one of the most catchy songs ever. When a kid I used to sing it over and over and over. Roger was so entertaining.

[@Saer-s9u]

R.I.P. Joseph Seiffo. As kids, about 7 and 8, he took us in his brand b new convertable to the Dairy Queen, 15 miles away. Trailers for sale or rent was cranked as loud as it could go and on repeat. He'd just bought his sweetheart a platinum and diamond Engagement ring. We were in northern canada and she was in Spain while he was makjng his fourtune. Half an hour later, we were at the outdoor swimming pool...where he disappeared. Later that night, they brought his beautiful body up from the deep. What a sweet,hard working,good man he was. Steanger in a strange land.Gone too soon,always remembered 60 years later...this song.,.😢💔💞

[@timcwalker]

I smiled all the way through this. Roger was the bomb.

[@kuujo50]

right when he said hit for a long time , 60 years on king of the road still rocks.

[@countrydj2]

He would have been 85 today. RIP. Did you know that Chug A Lug is number 9 out of out of 100 for the greatest country drinking songs? I like Doo Wacka Doo.

[@michaeliannacone8639]

RIP Bob Moore. Played double bass on KING OF THE ROAD, Patsy Cline's CRAZY and Brenda Lee's I'M SORRY, among 17,000 other recordings. Nashville A-Team, RCA Studios A & B royalty.

I love watchin Roger and Jimmy together

[@lisareed83]

Jimmy WHO? I've been trying to figure out who that guy is!

Me too! I’m literally searching to comments to try to find out.

My grandpa sang us this gems almost to the perfection of this genius singer/writer. Always be grateful for to the introduction to these classics❤

[@peterfriedrich4632]

Nice, I'm with you !

[@tonylennon7979]

He was such an extraordinary talent. His way with lyrics was unique. On top of all that, he had a superb singing voice.

[@demonrouge3338]

It’s amazing how many hits were written with the same three chords. Beautiful tunes expertly played and sung.

[@scottbaxendale323]

Every single song in the history of popular music was written with the same three chords……😂😂😂😂

I had many of his 45 singles! One of the 3 best guitarist from that era along with Jerry Reed and Roy Clark! Unique and only one, Roger Miller!

[@PAD939]

He wasn't a great guitarplayer

@@PAD939 yes indeed!

[@zionisimkills1098]

Roger miller 11 Gramys. and great songs, the shit today is so bad, it stinks a mile away.

[@demef758]

Back when TV was entertaining, not the cesspool it has become.

[@sandysanders4928]

Great footage of both Roger and Jimmy

[@joeyb4ever]

What a unique talent. He had a string of hits, not just on the country charts, but Billboard, too.

[@toslow9045]

Pure Talent

[@tommypark2522]

The way he knew it would be a loved song for years to come and he was absolutely right

[@Ryan1980whufc]

Absolutely love this... Guy is such a legend... My folks had an old scratched LP of his we used to listen to when we were kids in the 80's. Awesome memories

[@JoeHuman]

He sure was right about KING OF THE ROAD.

[@sherimcdaniel3491]

Oh my goodness!! This is a GREAT find! I’ve loved Roger Miller practically since I was born. Funny, emotional, hilarious and many other wonderful things!! God bless Roger Miller! I hope to hear you live when we meet in Heaven. Until that day, sleep...... (you WILL be cheering up the angels, right?). (wink nudge)

[@patriciajrs46]

He will make God laugh.

[@demonrouge3338]

How’s things going? Well some of them are coming back.

[@packingten]

Roger 49% nut 51% great writer what a guy...

[@patriciajrs46]

Every bit at least that percentage.

[@Poppaea-Sabina]

He was a freaking entertainment beast

[@LynxSouth]

"King of the Road" is the reason I learned to snap my fingers. It was the semi-permanent ear worm of my childhood (beginning in 1964 or -65, boosted by it being played a LOT on the radio for several years), and it continues to pop up in my mind by spells. Coming up on sixty years -- a long, long time, just as Jimmy said.

[@Buzzbox3rd]

What a great show.

[@frankscarborough1428]

Just love Roger Miller

[@larvalangel]

The difference between entertainment and mindless distraction.

[@Poppaea-Sabina]

He was funny and clever and could churn out catchy songs like nobody's business and that's a winning combo.I find Roger Miller very attractive especially later on in the 1970s with the beard. I love The Hat from the Muppet Show. He seemed so easy going.

[@irenemccann7032]

Very talented, In fact I would say genius.

[@gerryboudreaultboudreault2608]

I go from Roger Miller to Jim Stafford. Both great.

[@LenHummelChannel]

Roger was a truly unique and amazing talent. made the full use of a brilliant mind. Jimmy and Roger made for a great team in this segment. but WOW! look at the big ears on Jimmy ! LOL

[@smytherichbourg9344]

What is Jimmy’s last name? What was this show? Loving these uploads! I heard all the songs on the radio as a kid, but never saw this show.

No lip syncing on these old shows. Either ya got it or you don't. Roger had it.. ;)

[@patriciajrs46]

So true. I wish it was that way still.

[@JasonJBrunet]

There was definitely lip syncing on a lot of these old shows.

[@webbjr37]

Roger was known for these catchy type songs, however he also wrote and preformed great love songs such as (When Two Worlds Collide) &( Don't WE all Have The Right Too Be Wrong)

[@Compromised-yk9mc]

And don't forget Husbands and Wives.

[@larrylewis5721]

And "Old Toy Trains."

[@bcaye]

Lock, Stock and Teardrops. Sorry, Willie. Little Green Apples (he didn't write it but released it first).

[@scruffyzejanitor]

[@ClarenceHW]

Talent on so many levels ..great songs, fast wit and likely not giving a damn half the time.

[@ittybittykittymama7582]

Loved him then, love him now!

[@winonamassingill7895]

I had a good friend who lived in Plainview Texas where Jimmy Dean lived. She recently passed away. Her son is a highway 🛣️ patrol officer. They are good friends of ours. Our familiy goes to Wednesday night bible study at their home and he comes to our Sunday morning meeting in our home. I live with my oldest daughter and her wonderful husband. My friend’s wife is a nurse and she works Sundays in the Plainview Texas hospital. Our friends both call me grammy. 😅😅😊😊

[@frankgoodwell1261]

Fantastic !

[@heywilbur]

Absolute GOLD.... love this... thanks!

[@CheckAvailabilityYo]

This isn't a medley, it's him playing his songs seperatly.

[@DaveMarx-te2rs]

Let him do his thing ;)

[@MrWeedpatch]

There was only one Roger Miller, nothing like him ever ever ever....RIP

[@jeffstowe4860]

Damn, this is cool music!

[@rebeccad5988]

King of the road. Great Thank you for golden hits .

[@kimmariefaber4636]

One of my favourite episodes of the Muppet Show was with him! I LOVE the Muppet Show and I LOVE Roger Miller!😂🎉

[@michaelwilson1325]

He's also in the Disney cartoon rendition of Robin Hood! Awesome stuff!

[@JCMcGee]

Brilliant.

[@attheflattrackraces4662]

Absolutely the best musician of my older generation .

[@paulh2981]

I've been listing to his music for over half a cencuty and I never realized until I saw this that at some points he's actually competing with his guitar to see who is a better guitar...and he wins. Roger Miller is a better guitar than an actual guitar.

[@TheSnoopindaweb]

🤨🤔💭💡🔆▶~Roger and Willy were "Old Friends" 🎸🥁🎼🎹🎶🎵🎤👍👌💯👀😃🤩😁 Yup‼

[@BobWarnerBarn]

Nice!..😊

[@studebaker914]

Roger Miller wrote all the songs in the great music in The Big River, and the play used the actual words Mark Twain, in the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. It was picked best musical that year, check out the amazing music.

[@walkingtowheels]

Just a brilliantly talented man, (what else can you say) Thanks for uploading :)

[@floydthebarber9956]

The opening riff Roger plays on "Chug-A-Lug" is the same as "You Dont Mess Around With Jim" by Jim Croce.

How does Roger make fun of Jimmy's suit and he doesn't even mention those boots. Damn, do they need to spray those down to prevent the lights from reflecting too much?

Could have called Roger Kin of Country Scat.
