I've been on a Merle Haggard kick all day.
Country music never's been better than Merle's

Coil / Nine Inch Nails – Recoiled

 

[Nspace]

 

[DSJR]

Only just discovered this extended version. Loved the original, first heard on mono FM via BBC Radio Oxford too many decades ago...

Oh great I've just been given BTO and BTO II on one CD as a present and this full version's on there too

 

[Elgrosso]

I’m still in shock...

This makes me happy: 16 year old Muireann Bradley playing When the Levee Breaks how it's 'sposed to be played ...

That's great. She's got an album that's better recorded than that YouTube but I like watching the fingers.

Yes, watching the fingers is half the fun. Her obvious joy in playing these old songs is heartwarming but doesn't quite come through on the album which is a little too well recorded IMO. But she certainly nails the vibe better than many thrice her age. There's a clip on YT where she attempts some John Fahey which bodes well for her future development ... ;-)

In the clip you shared you can see her really digging in to accent the bass a few times but you can't really hear it because there's no bass.

Since I'm listening to it right now...
