Truckin Songs

Now I'm going to have to dig out my old cassette tapes. I have a bunch of old truck tapes. I used to buy the really cheap tapes in truck stops that had old tunes on them. I ended up with some really obscure stuff.

One of my favorites is "This damn 18 wheeler won't fit down this street" by an obscure band from Ft Wayne, IN . Russ McDaniel & The Sleeper Band, I think they only recorded one album. Russ was a truck driver and wrote most of the songs, not much of a singer but if you are/were a truck driver you can relate. Here's a link to the album. https://www.cdbaby.com/cd/rmcdanielsb

My favorite CW McCall one is "Wolf Creek Pass"

Yes! I actually remember that tape! And many like it!
 
A TON of good old truckin banter on this lesser known song by Ramblin Jack Elliott.
been a favorite of mine for many years!

Apparently Russ is still making music!
 
He was one of the greatest singer/songwriters EVER. The man was a genius, and a great guy.
I never had the pleasure to meet him, but I have rocked out to "Rapid Roy" quite a few times. And "bad bad Leroy Brown", operator... I could go on forever 😂😂😂
