Editorial Review:

Album Description:
Merle Haggard was a groundbreaking artist in many ways. He was one of the first country artists to see the LP as more than one hit and some filler songs. After his initial success, he devoted a lot of time and creative energy to 'concepts' that interested him, including live albums, tribute albums, gospel albums, and The Strangers' instrumental albums. The third and final box set in Bear Family's documentation of Merle Haggard's Capitol recordings includes all of these 'concepts.' This is some of the finest music from Merle Haggard's 45 year career. Fans and critics agree on that. The box includes the Jimmie Rodgers tribute double album from 1968 and the Bob Wills tribute album from 1970 for which Haggard reunited many of Wills' original Texas Playboys. There are three exciting live albums, including one of the best selling country albums of all time, Okie From Muskogee - Live In Muskogee, Oklahoma. There is the ambitious Land Of Many Churches gospel project, for which Haggard recorded revival-style gospel music in backwoods Baptist churches, San Quentin, a Nashville rescue mission and a California Pentecostal church. The set also includes the complete Strangers instrumental output...all of the songs from their five 'solo' albums plus many unreleased surprises, featuring knockout playing from Roy Nichols on guitar and Norm Hamlet on steel guitar.

This 6-CD LP-sized boxed set (with 120-page hardcover book) captures an artist using his success to take his art in new directions. This is the real Merle Haggard: traditionalist, iconoclast, but above all musician.
Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Super Hag
Hag At His Best between 1969-1976 on capital. A Six CD set (Don't be fooled when you open the box CD 5 and 6 are together in the last case). This includes a lot of great songs I had trouble finding including "Old Man From The Mountain, Movin' On, Jesus,Take A Hold,Cherokee Maiden, Here Comes The Freedom Train. It also includes a hard cover book which recounts the 8 year period. I may be Wrong but the first couple of CD's which were recorded at the capital studios seem to have slightly more ground hiss than the later ones (nothing that would deter me from recomending this though but it should be noted). I love Merle and if you've sought for more than the usual compilation look no further!
Heil Merle!


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - merle haggard-the studio recordings
I am a passionate hag fan, I already own 50 cd's, but this is by far the best material I Have on Him. The cd cet is well presented and I can't say enough about the beautifully prepared book that comes in the set. Well done the Bear family for putting this together. I recommend this set to any Merle fan and to anyone who just likes their country music...Real country music......


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Worship at the alter of Merle Haggard!
The first Bear Family box on Haggard was many years ago, so I was starting to think the second was never going to come. But wow was it worth the wait! Bear Family once again dazzles us with an exaustive, great sounding embarrassment of riches from Merle Haggard. Expensive but worth every penny and then some. Keep em coming Bear Family!
