Most informative piece I’ve read on this issue. Enjoyed the Merle and Buck references, I’m a big fan of Merle, thanks

You and me both! The "Okie from Muskogee" reference was a bit of stretch, since I only worked there for about 3 mos in 1978, but how can you not mention the song in any reference to Merle Haggard? It remains his top single of all time.

My Dad was a big fan of Merle, I started appreciating his music later in life. Believe or not my Wife and I have had some fun short trips to Muskogee it’s a great little town.
