We missed your show in Tucson but will look for your new CD. Thanks for all the years of danceable music...the new "country" isn't worth a damn. We love your music! The memories it evokes are precious. My wife of 25 wonderful years and I have happily danced to your music since we began dating 30+ years ago.

I'll never forget sitting in a truck stop in Bakersfield in the late 70's and heard "Think I'll Just Stay Here And Drink" on the jukebox. I was hooked! Saw you in Portland Or a few years ago, and took several pics of you playing, which I treasure. I just saw your tour schedule, and see you will be in Oregon at Spirit Mt. in June. I'll be there! We have a family restaurant at the foot of Mt Hood, and have many times said it would be so awesome if you could come there. Wow...you almost could this time between gigs! It would be a beautiful thing to see you walk through that door! If you actually get to read these posts, I have put the web-site info on the form, maybe you could look at it. It's the coolest place on the mountain, with music all the time, Roadhouse style. Love and all the best to you,.see you June 1st. xxoo Hi Merle;

I have been a fan for many years. My oldest son, Mathew shares your birthday. He just had his 40th. He retired from the Marine Corps after 20 + years. A while back, we went to sing karaoke, he was singing "Misery and Gin", I was amazed he knew the words by heart. I mentioned it to him, He said, Mom that is all we heard as kids".

You made it all better for us and we hope and pray you get better soon. My Mom adored you and I think us listening to some good country music was a lot better tribute to her life than having a pity party at the Motel. Get well and come to see us in Norman.

I'm 55 years old and you are, without a doubt, the greatest influence on music in my lifetime. I'm a career professional pilot and there's nothing I'd rather have in the cockpit than your songs when I'm flying. There's only a handful of professional singer/songwriters in the musical history of the United States. Hank Williams/Jimmy Rodgers/Merle Haggard/ Bob Seger and a few others. But only a few have had the impact on Americana that you've had. Thanks for everything. I love the latest rendition of "Working Man Blues" on the new album. There's nothing like enjoying "Merle's Music" and a glass of Jim Beam and good cuban cigar on this earth as far as I'm concerned.

That was 1973. He was called Merle by every one and his re-editions of your songs helped me get thru the worst perid of my life. I did not know that his name was Arther for sometime I allways thought it was Merle. We made a pact to come and see you in America but unfortunelately he died from alcohol in 1976. I hope to one day keep that promise to him. Any of your songs take me back to memories of him and the friendship we had. Thanks Merle Australia here,

It was good. I especially liked the line about I believe Jesus is God. i just talked to an atheist the other day and it's refreshing to hear you sing what you did. The atheist is an actor out in California, he was famous back in the 70's and 80's. He seemed almost arrogant. I am praying for him everyday and I will pray for you too.
