He wore glasses many years though usually when performing, sunglasses that had prescription lenses. Wire frames. He was quite goodlooking. Met him standing by his motorhome when he played in Baltimore at Painters Mill, around 1981. He was parked out back and I was with the DJ that had some nice passes. He was just hanging out and very nice.

I enjoyed country music back in the day. There were some great songs, great songwriters, and great performers. It fit in good with the rock-n-roll life I led. I miss country music. I guess times change and music changes with it. And that's alright because it just makes these classics that much more golden.

@@paulkossak7761 Hey, I ain't from NYC and I love Merle. I was just pointing out that your statement "We all love and miss him in the big apple" is not rooted in any sort of reality. NYC folks do not all love and miss Merle Haggard, quite contrary as I would venture to guess most NYC folk fucking hate good ole boys like Merle. I think dudes like that gay black rapper guy who gave the devil a lap dance are more their speed.
