Merle Ronald Haggard (April 6, 1937 – April 6, 2016) was an American country singer, songwriter, guitarist, and fiddler.
Haggard was born in Oildale, California, toward the end of the Great Depression. His childhood was troubled after the death of his father, and he was incarcerated several times in his youth. After being released from San Quentin State Prison in 1960, he managed to turn his life around and launch a successful country music career. He gained popularity with his songs about the working class that occasionally contained themes contrary to anti-Vietnam War sentiment of some popular music of the time. Between the 1960s and the 1980s, he had 38 number-one hits on the US country charts, several of which also made the Billboard all-genre singles chart. Haggard continued to release successful albums into the 2000s.
He received many honors and awards for his music, including a Kennedy Center Honor (2010), a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award (2006), a BMI Icon Award (2006), and induction into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame (1977), Country Music Hall of Fame (1994) and Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame (1997). He died on April 6, 2016—his 79th birthday—at his ranch in Shasta County, California, having recently suffered from double pneumonia.
I am on Ebay as a relaxing hobby. I enjoy the thrill of the hunt, researching the items and then offering them for sale at a reasonable price. I do everything possible to offer the item at a price that makes sense. Having said that, never hesitate to make an offer. Send me any questions you have. I don?t mark up my shipping and do everything possible to ship it the cheapest, fastest, safest way. I package well with good padding. Very happy to bundle items to help shipping costs (I sometimes catch it if you purchase multiple items) but please be sure to ask me to bundle to ensure I see it!
