About
Same Train, A Different Time (subtitled Merle Haggard Sings the Great Songs of Jimmie Rodgers) is the ninth studio album by country music artist Merle Haggard backed by the Stranger, released in 1969, featuring covers of songs by legendary country music songwriter Jimmie Rodger. It was originally released as a 2 LP set on Capitol (SWBB-223). After producing a string of albums and #1 chart hit, Haggard decided to record a tribute album to Jimmie Rodger, who, along with Lefty Frizzell and Bob Will, was one of his favorite artist. Haggard had already recorded a couple of Rodgers song, having included the Blue Yodeler's "Rough and Rowdy Ways" on his 1967 LP I'm a Lonesome Fugitive while the same version of "California Blues" on this album had been featured on Pride in What I Am three months earlier. Same Train, A Different Time includes several spoken word introductions by Haggard where he talks about the life and songs of the legendary country singer. .
