Review
Same Train, Different Time is Merle Haggard's affectionate tribute to Jimmie Rodgers. Haggard provides narration between the songs, offering tales of Rodgers' life and music. While the album is rooted in the past, the key to its success is how Haggard updates these traditional songs without losing sight of their roots. There are contemporary folk, country and blues influences scattered throughout the record, adding depth to the music and proving that Rodgers' music is indeed timeless. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi| Same Train, A Different Time (1969 Album by Merle Haggard / Merle Haggard & the Strangers) | |
