Description

2008 compilation of tracks pulled from his recordings for MCA spanning the years 1977-81. His music runs from classic country, folk, gospel, ballads, blues and tender love songs to social commentary, protest, even anti-protest. Whether sounding wearied or overjoyed, reflective, annoyed or animated, Merle Haggard's writing and vocals embody the essence of country music at its best. He pays tribute to Elvis Presley with the incisive 'From Graceland to the Promised Land', released just a few weeks after the King passed away back in 1977. You can tell when listening to his distinctive renditions of 'Blue Suede Shoes', 'That's All Right' and 'Love Me Tender' that this was a heartfelt tribute to a musical idol by a genuine fan. Universal UK. 2008.
