this is from his son....  Ben Haggard 53 mins · A week ago dad told us he was gonna pass on his birthday, and he wasn't wrong. A hour ago he took his last breath surrounded by family and friends. He loved everything about life and he loved that everyone of you gave him a chance with his music. He wasn't just a country singer.. He was the best country singer that ever lived.

RIP Merle. One of the original outlaws and an all around great musical talent! I'm a huge DAC, Marty Robbins, Gene Watson old country fan. I listen to AM 1520 almost exclusively. New country isn't country.
There's times I could beddown on a sofa and let some pretty lady rub my back
And spend the early morning drinking coffee
And talkin' about when I'll be coming back
Cause I don't let no woman tie me down and I'll never get too old to get around
I'm gonna die along the highway and rot away like some old highline pole
Rest this ramblin' fever in my soul
Ramblin' fever...

Merle's passing reminds me of '65, being 19 in Japan in the Navy, sitting on the back steps of a shipmate's family rental drinking Jim Beam & listening to Merle, Buck Owens & other cw musicians of the time. We got his Japanese landlord drunk & in trouble with his wife a couple of times. He loved country music but did have any. We gave him some cw lps when we shipped out.
RIP Merle.

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

If you don't like MH, you're a fuckin' Commie and you should be banished immediately.
RIP Merle. You were one of the greats.

My father took me to a MH concert in Seattle in the 90's. I was reluctant, but the guy could sing and every song had a story we all could relate to. Some days, when the world is beating me up, I remember the lyrics to "Big City" and I feel better....RIP Mr. Haggard.

Lot has been said negatively about contemporary country music and the artists who perform it. My CW music tastes favor the classics, the old boys and the outlaws; however, after reading this story, I'll hold my criticism of the young guns. http://countryrebel.com/blogs/videos/118...ySavesMerle-CMN

More than likely a drug overdose. prince was one of the cleanest living entertainers out there. i'm 99.9% certain this is not drug(illegal recreational drug) related. .01% thinking this is drug related. here's my theory. prince may added a few glasses of wine with a couple oxycontins. I know of 2 people who have died this way.
