Merle Haggard was one of the defining voices of American country music, a singer, songwriter, guitarist, and bandleader whose recordings traced the lives of working people with unusual honesty. Born in Oildale, California, on April 6, 1937, he grew up around Bakersfield and became one of the principal architects of the Bakersfield sound. His music retained the bite of honky-tonk and Western swing while bringing tremendous emotional depth to songs about family, prison, heartbreak, and independence.

Haggard began recording for Tally before his Capitol Records years turned him into a major country star. Songs such as ‘I’m a Lonesome Fugitive,’ ‘Sing Me Back Home,’ ‘Mama Tried,’ ‘Workin’ Man Blues,’ and ‘Okie from Muskogee’ established the breadth of his songwriting and singing. His band, the Strangers, helped give the records their unmistakable character, while albums honoring Jimmie Rodgers, Bob Wills, Lefty Frizzell, and Hank Williams revealed the musical traditions that mattered most to him.

The catalog extended far beyond his biggest hits. Haggard recorded gospel and Christmas music, country standards, bluegrass, train songs, film and soundtrack material, and extensive duets with Bonnie Owens, Leona Williams, George Jones, Willie Nelson, and other musicians. His recordings for MCA, Epic, Curb, and independent labels continued that range, from the reflective ‘Footlights’ and ‘Kern River’ to the later albums ‘If I Could Only Fly,’ ‘I Am What I Am,’ and ‘Working in Tennessee.’

Haggard died on April 6, 2016, his 79th birthday, leaving behind a remarkably wide-ranging recording legacy. His final studio collaboration with Willie Nelson, ‘Django and Jimmie,’ arrived in 2015, and the recording ‘Kern River Blues’ was released in 2016. The alphabetical song catalog below covers his studio albums, significant collaborative recordings, original singles and B-sides, holiday and gospel material, official archival recordings, and selected distinct live performances, with original release information whenever established.
