Merle Haggard was one of the most important country music musicians who ever lived. His astonishing musical career stretched across the second half of the 20th Century and into the first two decades of the next, during which he released an extraordinary 63 albums, 38 that made it on to Billboard's Country Top Ten, 13 that went to #1, and 37 #1 hit singles. With his ample songbook, unique singing voice and brilliant phrasing that illuminated his uncompromising commitment to individual freedom, cut with the monkey of personal despair on his back and a chip the size of Monument Valley on his shoulder, Merle's music and his extraordinary charisma helped change the look, the sound, and the fury of American music. The Hag tells, without compromise, the extraordinary life of Merle Haggard, augmented by deep secondary research, sharp detail and ample anecdotal material that biographer Marc Eliot is known for, and enriched and deepened by over 100 new and far-ranging interviews. It explores the uniquely American life of an angry rebellious boy from the wrong side of the tracks bound for a life of crime and a permanent home in a penitentiary, who found redemption through the music of "the common man." Merle Haggard's story is a great American saga of a man who lifted himself out of poverty, oppression, loss and wanderlust, to catapult himself into the pantheon of American artists admired around the world. Eliot has interviewed more than 100 people who knew Haggard, worked with him, were influenced by him, loved him or hated him. The book celebrates the accomplishments and explore the singer's infamous dark side: the self-created turmoil that expressed itself through drugs, women, booze, and betrayal. The Hag offers a richly anecdotal narrative that will elevate the life and work of Merle Haggard to where both properly belong, in the pantheon of American music and letters. The Hag is the definitive account of this unique American original, and will speak to readers of country music and rock biographies alike. *546##$aEngelsk tekst *60017$aHaggard, Merle$d1937-$0(NO-TrBIB)5004947$2bare$_49012000 *655#7$aBiografiar$0https://id.nb.no/vocabulary/ntsf/36$9nno$2ntsf$_44249900 *655#7$aBiografier$0https://id.nb.no/vocabulary/ntsf/36$9nob$2ntsf$_44250000 *7001#$aEliot, Marc$0(NO-TrBIB)90274853$tThe Hag$_49011800 *8521#$h782.421640$iHAG *856##$aaja.bs.no$qimage/jpeg$uhttps://media.aja.bs.no/8526b265-a4ea-4945-b131-f6d3fd35ff04/original.jpg$3Omslagsbilde *856##$aaja.bs.no$qimage/jpeg$uhttps://media.aja.bs.no/8526b265-a4ea-4945-b131-f6d3fd35ff04/thumbnail.jpg$3Miniatyrbilde ^
