 Here's Merle's 2nd duet album. Willie Nelson makes up Hag's better half on this one. "Poncho & Lefty" spawns the #1 Hit with the same name, but falls short of the success Merle had on "Yesterday's Wine" with George Jones. The songs here have a not so subtle tone of depression with undertones of submission. Merle and Willie seem to grudgingly sing like their careers are over and it's time to hang it up! "Pancho & Lefty", "Half A Man" and "No Reason To Quit" are true gems. The remaining 7 tracks have the look and feel of faux rhinestones. Be sure to visit Merle's Official Web Site to get the latest info on "The Hag". **Please note: the preceeding opinion is solely that of Sound_Man73 and should only be used as a reference.
