Our second country western post of February features the legendary Roger Miller. His official website describes Miller as a “songwriter, singer, guitarist, fiddler, drummer, TV star, humorist, honky-tonk man, Broadway composer, and perhaps above all else, an awesome wit.” That description is far from an overstatement. Miller wrote and recorded countless number one singles, such as the legendary tune, King of The Road. He hosted his own TV show. He wrote the music for the Broadway play, Big River, for which he won a Tony award for best score in 1986. He even acted in that play, portraying Huck Finn's father Pap for three months after the exit of actor John Goodman. Miller continued to perform right up until his death in 1992 from lung cancer. This soundboard recording captures him during his final tour, on February 16, 1991, 21 years ago today, in Alexandria VA. Another legend whose music needs to be in every rock fan’s collection.

Hi speedy!
i guess i found the dead link you activated the most -
please would you be so kind to activate this link once more -
unfortunately i never had the chance to see a show form the king of the road live - anyhow, his ``Sorry Folks, i haven`t written lately`` is still among the best records ever!
Thank you so much for your daily pricless work - it`s really appreciated!!!

Hi Speedy,
May I ask you to re-up this Roger Miller? It's been near impossible for me to find anything of his. I see this was just re-upped 7 weeks ago. How'd I miss it again? Thank you.

Thank you for the restart. I hesitated to ask as it must be enough work just keeping your site supplied with the current offerings. Very kind of you to help me out. You have a great blog here.
My pleasure - I'm always willing to re-up a show or two for nice, kind folks. Its when folks are nasty or ask for dozens of re-ups hat I simply can't/won't do it!
Many Kudos for re-upping this! Rare and precious!
thanks again.
Thank you speedy for this repost R. Miller show
