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
CD reissue of the 1969 double-LP with two bonus remakes of Jimmie Rodgers songs.
Scholars and fans acknowledge two early recording acts as the progenitors of
modern country music: the Carter Family and Jimmie Rodgers. The Carters
established country's roots in old-time folk songs, sentimental ballads
and rough, heartfelt harmony singing. Rodgers, the more influential of
the two, merged African-American country blues with Anglo-Saxon melodicism
and original, personal songwriting. Prior to the '60s, few artists lacked
the influence of one or both of these acts. Rodgers was the avowed hero of
Hank Williams, Ernest Tubb, George Jones, and Lefty Frizzell, to name just
a few of his famous devotees. Frizzell, in fact, recorded the album of
Rodgers songs that inspired Merle Haggard to record SAME TRAIN, DIFFERENT TIME.
Haggard has a natural affinity for Rodgers' songs of train-hopping, cop-dodging
and heartbreak. He also sings bluesy runs with ease and conviction, and he can
yodel, an ability often called for in Rodgers' songs. ... Full Description As
a result, SAME TRAIN fits neatly into Haggard's body of largely original work,
making the album a great introduction to the work of two of country music's
masters. The Strangers--Haggard's great backing band featuring James Burton
on dobro and guitar--add stellar support throughout.
Merle's 1969 classic double LP played a pivotal role in bringing the music of
Jimmie Rodgers to a new audience. In it, he was true to the spirit of Rodgers,
but brought a new twist to the legacy. This CD not only includes all of the
original two LPs, but two additional Rodgers songs that Merle recorded later.
James Burton's dobro is stellar throughout.
Recorded at Capitol Recording Studios, Hollywood, California between August 26, 1968
and February 26, 1969. Originally released as a 2 LP set on Capitol (SWBB-223).
Includes original release liner notes by Hugh Cherry and new liner notes by
Colin Escott.
