Manfred Mann - Blinded by the light

 

I'd suggest the Bruce Springsteen version is MUCH better. 

 

"Get Out of Denver" Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band (Live Bullet)

"Free Bird" Lynyrd Skynyrd (One More From the Road)

"Man on a Mission" Don Hemley

[Doug Riparetti]

"Million Miles Away" by The Plimsouls.

 

I got my 1st "02" in 1982, I was 20-years old, (the color was Bristol). I was a HUGE "New Wave" fan, I'd always be cruising over to Cannery Row in Monterey, on to Asilomar Beach in Pacific Grove, finishing off my drive in Carme just as the Sun is setting, l would just CRANK "Million Miles Away".over an over......

 

Fast forward 31-years, I flew down to Los Angeles to pick up my latest "02", as I'm driving back home to Seaside just humming along West on Hwy 46, when "Million Miles Away" came on my stereo, it brought me back to those days of cruising along the ocean when I was 20.

 

Man, what a cool flashback, made me feel young again......

My go to songs in addition to Queen's One Vision, Zeppelin's Trampled Under Foot and Rush's Red Barchetta.

Something about the guitar parts on each of those.   I need to get my radiator back in before they salt the roads.

"Yes, there's gas in the car!"

"I think the people down the hall know who we are!"

Great pic, Andrew. You both look pleased with the experience.

 

Took a listen to Queen's One Vision...loud.  Sounded like they were channeling their inner AC/DC, which was entirely unexpected and enjoyable.
