Product Details

Merle Haggard is country music's great working-class poet, a Bakersfield voice that carried the weight of hard labor, hard time, and harder honesty straight through Nashville's polished surface. These re-recordings still carry his unmistakable phrasing and the lean, Telecaster-driven sound he helped define, making this a solid entry point for anyone just discovering the Hag or filling a gap in the collection.


2011 reissue of the 1998 compilation. Legacy Recordings perennial best seller 16 Biggest Hits series has been one of the most successful product lines in the Sony label's history. This collection is mostly 1994 re-recordings of his hits not the originals.
