I'll see you Doors and raise you back a decade or so further . . . an all time fave tune of mine (thanks for the intro dad) that also gets the speedometer dancing!

Buffett words to live by . . . Cowboy in the Jungle . . .
We've gotta roll with the punches
Learn to play all of our hunches
Makin' the best of whatever comes your way
Forget that blind ambition
And learn to trust your intuition
Plowin' straight ahead come what may.

WOW, this is so weird, Conch! I was just listening to this in the car this morning on Buffett's Margaritaville channel on Sirius... I hadn't heard it in a long time and I was thinking about those exact lyrics you wrote and thinking to myself that I've got to follow that mindset more often in life. As we were driving along I told my kids, "Buffett isn't the greatest singer but dang, what a songwriter!" (OK, I actually said "damn, what a songwriter" but didn't want you guys on MM to think I'm a bad mom )

OK, now that is freaky!
As Buffett would say, we're all connected by songlines!!

Bah! That stuff isn't old. Go back a few centuries more and this is the kind of music I listen to:
I find this video quite hypnotic - probably because I drove this exact route nearly a thousand times.

Sam wrote:Ha Mad Kudu Buck.... do you have any recordings from 1735??
Yes, I have actual recordings from 1735. See, I have a time machine and I occasionally pop back with my tape recorder and... well now I've said too much.
The earliest recording I have from LP is this Bach recording from 1961 (when stereo was new):
And for something different... this song has stupid lyrics, but totally reminds me of 1984/85. Yes, hairstyles were bad, but times were good and Magnum was still on TV.
I fixed it for ya T.Q. . . . go into edit and you can see what you need to do. Basically you take everything after the "/" and place it between youtube and /youtube in brackets.
And . . . since you mentioned country . . . here's The Man.

How about the 1930's?
