Eddi Reader with Tim O'Brien - Back To Earth

[mouldybear]

Classic Willie Nelson song performed brilliantly by everyone but the real prize is Eddi Reader. When she's on form she knocks me out. Transatlantic Sessions often overdo it but not this time.

Can't help but notice Russ Barenberg playing an inexpensive guitar when I'm sure he has some real jewels at home....maybe he didn't want to trust the airlines with an irreplaceable instrument? PS-a real one-of-a-kind voice

[wgl1964]

Another genius masterpiece arrangement from Aly and the transAtlantic folks. Especially like the accordian at 3.00. Thankyou.

[jwdsnapper]

wow ..!

[LizAndyMovieWatcher]

she is amazing!

[darlindi4cc]

My absolute fave clip of all:  My hero Tim backing up Eddi's exquisite voice on one of Willie Nelson's finest songwriting moments ... what's not to love!

[matonguitar]

Wonderful song wonderfully sung! Not to mention Jery Douglas! Love it! She so obviously loves the song. Beautiful!

[kassejayne]

beautiful song....superb vocals

[twoboys1dad]

what a song, eddi reader has such a brilliant voice...

[KS6stringer]

Is it just me or does it seem that Jerry Douglass is the only dobro player in the world? He seems to play with everyone!

[jwilliam2255]

@KS6stringer If you wanted a dobro player why would you try to get anyone else?

[mossie2644]

[kccowboymo]

How can ANYTHING compete with this? It's as though she is totally in love with the music....and why shouldn't she be? So simple yet beautiful...haunts my soul. Great song by Willie Nelson whose writing is often overloked.

[mickeysfrend]

My mother used to sing like this every hogmanay.

" I love you, yes I do, I love you. If you break my heart I'll die.....it's a sin to tell a lie "

As an infant I loved it and took it for granted all at once.

[LeFeff]

I wish more music coming out of Music Row (Nashville) sounded like this.

This is such a wonderful moment of music and artistry.

[JonniBall]

[fearuasal]

absolutely splendid rendition of Willie Nelson song. Eddi Reader gives a sublime performance - would consider it one of my all time favourites!

[woodsheddin]

These sessions are unbelievable. What beautiful music.

[LochMeikle]

Good news for all fans is the release of the DVD "Transatlantic Sessions: Series 3" bringing together the best of Nashville, Ireland and Scotland to perform what has been called "the greatest backporch shows ever".

All of the six half-hour programmes from the BBC/RTÉ TV series are included, recorded in a beautiful old converted farm steading in the Perthshire Highlands.

[royzee28]

Superb!

[mik1246]

THESE SESSIONS JUST BLOW YOU AWAY

[gokartmozart]

This is from the new series! Great

nb. Not looking too good for TS3.3 my end - signal strength on the DVB-T mutliplex bearing BBC4 has recently dropped to borderline. I guess my aerial is overdue for attention. And Iris was due tonight, goddammit.

If I'm unlucky, Tomtscotland is yer man on the spot. :-)
