Merrill Womach / Happy Again

Year: Unknown
Label: New Life Records

This is pretty standard for people who collect these sorts of records. It's being here is more or less a formality. Merrill's life was changed when he survived a fiery plane crash that left him with severe burns. So he continued to make records and praise God, a hero in his field really. It's honestly not as interesting as one would hope, but it is a curious little bit of pop history. It's your basic sappy, religious pop-gospel music with an ever so slight nod to Elvis. But I know you're just dying to hear a bit of it...

Echoes of Yesterday

I remember Merl as a kid, clinging to my Dad and Moms hands worshiping Jesus without a care in the world. He suffered burns all over his body yet came through it singing praises to the King of Kings.
he is an inspiration and i thank God I had the pleasure of attending concerts with my family in Toledo,Ohio with my 3 brothers and Dad and Mom.

Merrill is quite a guy. Too bad this site only makes slight of him. He one of very few Men that can sing Four Octaves and does a wonderful job of it at that. I am glad I know Merrill and look forward to seeing him again. Merrill, when I think of him I am thinking "Great Guy!"

I wonder why a blog administrator removed Bruce C. Lundeby's comments?
I have always liked Merrills singing style. Unlike most and lots of quality to his voice. Not many left as good as this man.

This site is not intended to make fun of Merrill, or any other record here, but mostly to display "unusual" records, things out of the ordinary that are not well known. This record is an interesting artifact of pop history. I deleted the posts becuase they pointed out errors that I had made in the listing, which I have now corrected, and therefore it is no longer relevant.

Thank you from the depths of my soul Seeker
