I wish they had a DVD of the CD show.
When I bought this ,I assumed it was the video of the Billy Bob's live CD.While this is a good show,the other was one of my favorites of Merle's .He had a great guitar player on the CD,on this video Merle plays guitar.Hag can really sing and write,but as a guitar player he should hire that out.But, back to the subject,this video is great quality,sound and visualy.There are two familiar faces ,Norm on steel and old what's his name on horns.The last time is saw a Hag concert,he had a pickup band,which was great,Merle played guitar quite a bit,but a better picker was playing second guitar.I doubt we will see the great bands he carried back in the eighties.Merle Haggard doesn't have to prove anything to anyone ,he sings as well now as ever ,and still writes goods songs.Buy it,you'll like it.

Best live merle
I have been a merle fan for over 30 years, and with the possible exeption of the bob wills tribute, this is the best recorded live merle I have heard.This "old country singer" edition of the strangers compares favorably with any past editions of this great backup band. Merle's voice seems to sound better than it has for years. The dts 5.1 sound is top notch. This is a must buy for merle fans.
