Two of Merle Haggard's sons made this tribute video for him shortly before he died. The way they sound like their father is amazing.

yes I love that..one of my favourites. I was and still am really a big Merle Haggard fan and his boys are like his clones...

At this moment in time I like this one the best:

Poor Hank Williams died at just 29. The song reflects that person.

Believe what you want. I'm sure there are spirits walking among us.
This song is about Mary in Jamestown North Carolina. Her name is often confused with the name "Lydia". Mary was coming home from a party and lost her life in a car accident. She died at the Jamestown bridge. Since her death she has been trying to get home by hitchhiking. Someone will pick her up and try to take her home. By the time they get to the destination. Mary is gone.

Guess this falls into the folk category, don't know, just like the song.
Saw him live in the 70's. His set was mostly Folk.
