Awesome Merle Haggard CD! Jan 22, 2010 After browsing the songs on various "best of" Merle Haggard discs, I settled on "Hag: The Best of Merle Haggard".
I wasn't disappointed when I popped it in the stereo.
The choice of songs was exactly what I was seeking. No live recordings.
The quality is first-rate.
The sound of "Workin' Man Blues", "Mama Tried", "Branded", "Okie From Muskogee",and "The Bottle Let Me Down" make this cd worth having for any Merle Haggard fan.
I discovered songs that I wasn't as familiar with- "The Legend of Bonnie and Clyde" and "Old Man From The Mountain" to name two of them. These songs were as much a treasure as the more well-known standards.
Merle Haggard is a legend both for his guitar playing talent and his songwriting for the common man. All of his best work is on this disc.

HAG ! Nov 13, 2009 This is one of the best CD's of any genre music that I own. I'm not a big country fan but I have always liked Merle , waylon , and Johnny Cash. This is as excellent complilation of Merle that you will find. The recording is outstanding and there is not a bad selection on this long CD. I tell all the kids I teach who like contemporary country, which sounds like imitation Southern Rock to me , about this CD. I listen to this CD constantly and never get tired of it. This is what real country music is supposed to sound like.

Paul's gift Jan 01, 2008 For me to rate this purchase would be unfair. It was purchased as gifts for two very different people. They both say they really enjoy it. That is about all I have to say about it.

The Best Single Disc Out There On This Artist Dec 22, 2007 I say artist since Merle is indeed an icon not some single/45 maker typically known to this genre of music but a serious artist that is best served up on individual albums showing his development or with the great box set "Down Every Road" that beautifully sums it all up and belongs in any serious CD collection.
The song selection here on HAG is a great mix and flows seamlesly and is enough to turn any rock fan into a country fan.
The sound is extraordinary as is the running time and liner notes and overall a great CD that included his famous duets with the great Johnny Cash(from the CASH CD Solitary Man),and the classic Willie Nelson cut Pancho and Lefty as well as a newer track with Toby Keith spanning a trip down memory lane circa 1962- 2005..Interesting photos of Merle standing over a grave site within as a middle age man with additional shots of him younger and the elder statesmen which he now is, akin to 2006 when this great CD hit.
