The Legendary Performances collection features nearly two decades of rarely seen performances of Merle in his prime that have since been archived by the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. Experience the hits through a chronology of vintage live performances such as Branded man (Country Music Holiday, 1968), Mama Tried (Billy Walker's Country Carnival, 1968) and Okie From Muskogee (The Porter Wagoner Show, 1970). From the walls of San Quentin to his free-spirited life as an irreverent and unique voice outside the Nashville establishment to his induction in the Country Music Hall of Fame, Merle Haggard has never left a doubt that he is country's original outlaw.
Reviews
Why so much hype?
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
