RIP Merle.

One of my all time favorites, particularly the duet with Willie Nelson, The Ballad of Pancho and Lefty.

There's a Facebook page which I follow: "I Love Texas Music". Absolutely jammed with tributes to Merle Haggard today with dozens of clips and tunes. Great stuff.

RIP to the original Okie from Muskogee. Died on his 79th birthday.

Without being disrespectful, I was going to say, ' Merle who?'- but RIP.

We dodged the bullet there then. With respect.
