This weekend’s music thread is about travel, by air, sea, or land. By plane train or automobile (or cars and trucks). It is about movement, getaways, sort of like Congress trying to get away from furloughed air traffic controllers and the unforeseen inconvenience of their travel plans. It’s amazing how a few stationary hours, sitting in a crowded plane on a hot tarmac can change ones views.

So, lets get moving, truckin or sailing or driving. Post your favorite songs about travel and moving ahead.

Golden Earring – Radar Love

Pink Floyd – Learning To Fly

The 5th Dimension – Up, Up and Away

The Byrds Eight Miles High

Imelda May – How High The Moon

Commander Cody And His Lost Planet Airmen – Hot Rod Lincoln

The Allman Brothers Band – Ramblin’ Man

KT and Sherlock, and everybody else, I just watched an amazing film “Searching For Sugar Man”. It won the Academy Award this year for Best Documentary. If you haven’t seen it, you should. Especially you, KT. I know you will love it. Here is the titled song which I think might fit with today’s theme:

Sherlock, you will like the film, has a lot of researching in action!

Oh my word KT, Commander Cody and his lost Planet Airmen? I have not thought of that album cover in over 40 years. Thanks so much for bringing it back.
