Our Take

Merle Haggard, the legendary country outlaw, takes listeners on a delightful journey with his album Same Train / A Different Time. This collection of tunes sees Haggard putting his own unique spin on traditional folk songs like a cowboy with a rebel streak.

From the first strum of the guitar on "Jimmie Brown the Newsboy" to the haunting vocals on "Mother, the Queen of My Heart," Haggard's raw talent shines through. Each track is a masterclass in storytelling, with lyrics that paint vivid pictures of love, loss, and life on the road.

Haggard's signature twang is front and center, giving each song an authenticity that can only come from years of honing his craft. The stripped-down production allows his voice to take center stage, proving once again why he is considered one of the greatest country singers of all time.

With Same Train / A Different Time, Haggard reminds us why he is a true icon in the world of country music. This album is a must-listen for any fan of traditional country or anyone looking to discover the roots of the genre. So hop on board and let Merle Haggard take you on a ride you won't soon forget. All aboard the Haggard express!
