City of New Orleans -- Steve Goodman's Song Live in Azusa
Description:
In 1972 Guthrie made famous Steve Goodman's song "City of New Orleans," a paean to long-distance rail travel. Guthrie's first trip on that train was in December 2005 (when his family joined other musicians on a train trip across the country to raise money for musicians financially devastated by Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita, in the South of the United States). He also had a minor hit with his song "Coming into Los Angeles," which was played at the 1969 Woodstock Festival, and success with "The Motorcycle Song." Guthrie's 1976 album Amigo received a 5-star (highest rating) from Rolling Stone, and may be his best-received work; unfortunately that milestone album is rarely heard today as are Guthrie's earlier Warner Brothers albums — although each boasts compelling folk music accompanied by top-notch musicians including Ry Cooder.

Unfortunately (or rather, fortunately) no one has a cowboy hat, but someone has a motorcycle helmet. Feeling that he should play more vehicular songs he starts with Born to be wild, and then goes on from there associating wildly. Just listen, a phenomenal ... |
