Highway Tunes

[lhousesoccer]

Some great tunes here...throw in some Teenage Head (old school Canadiana), Violent Femmes, Old Tragically Hip and Lynyrd Skynyrd!!!!!!!!

What he said, but substitute the Violent Femmes for April Wine's Greatest Hits! Oh yeah, and I forgot. Y'all gotta get THIS album!

I've always loved Waylon Jennings, as I remember my Dad when I was a kid always having BX93 - the country station out of London on all the time. Then I kind of got away from country, but a couple years ago my wife and I were in the Yukon, and after spending 3 days hiking high ridges in Kluane, we went into Whitehorse for a night. We got a hotel (and a shower) and asked the girl at the front desk where we should eat and she said Klondike Rib & Salmon BBQ, just around the corner.

 

The place looked really cool, made up like a trappers cabin inside, with canvas ceiling and walls, looks of "Yukon-y" decor. We ordered the halibut chowder and caribou stew. Both were out of this world. While we were eating, I became aware of the music playing in the background and I knew I'd heard it before. I asked our waitress what it was, and she brought over the CD case - Waylon!

 

Ever since, this CD has been on my playlist, and I listen to it almost every week. Great road music.
