Merle Haggard - 30 Again video free download
This show was before the song came out on LP. One of those album cuts that endures beyond some other songs put out as singles. I think Merle has more songs that were album cuts or B-Sides that are classics than any other artist in music (including Today I Started Loving You Again, Silver Wings, Footlights, Somewhere Between, Every Fool Has a Rainbow, White Line Fever, Irma Jackson, California Cottonfields, Tulare Dust, Farmer's Daughter, Honky Tonk Night Time Man, Holding Things Together, Diana, Make Up and Faded Blue Jeans, Shopping for Dresses, No Time to Cry, Listening to the Wind, and many, many others....

Merle's songs apply to any generation,the new breed of country could take a life class just by listening to Merle! You don't need all the background crap, just a good voice and a guitar. George Strait and Alan Jackson come real close.11 years ago

Been listening to some "New" Country singers who came along in the late 70s,80s to try to be more openminded. Sure lot of good singers who went by then , but Good Lord when i come back to Merle, it seems like i don't want to come back listening to those "new" singers that are Real Big men compared to whats New Country today. Merle Haggard is something i will never get used to . He is not Old or New. He is a Timless Man of Art.11 years ago

@randy fletcher - You'll notice Merle has a smirk on his face when he's singing that line and Freddy is giggling too.. It's supposed to be funny, Merle really emphasizes that line live in concert to try and get a laugh... I don't think Ralph's laugh was out of line... 11 years ago

I wish I could be 30 again, well when you think about it we all have said that at one time or another. Merle puts its in the right frame of mind. Freddie and Merle they are a duet in my eye, I just don't know how long they have been friends and co/writers on many songs. This is a great one as ususal and I will play it time and again now that I am 60. jb king14 years ago

This would have been early 1987 I think, as the show was well before the song came out as a single in late 1987. His current album was "Out Among the Stars". He also did "Almost Persuaded" on the show, which was his current single at the time...Related Videos
