TIL “Big City” is a Merle Haggard cover. Only took a quarter century to notice.

I was driving through the tonight after a gig, listening to mid 70's Merle Haggard, when the CD started to skip, and it became the most beautiful half-time glitch hop.

- , No. 25: Merle Haggard – I’m a Lonesome Fugitive (1967). In 1959, San Quentin prisoner A45200 saw Johnny Cash perform and decided to reform himself. Eight years later Haggard, the ex-con, had become king of the Bakersfield sound – back-to-basics country with a common touch. The title track and “Life in Prison” (“I’d rather die than live to lose my mind”) take glory out of crime and put humanity back in.
