Hey Planet folk! Well, another weekend has arrived (and quickly), so
we have another music thread to have some fun with. This weekend’s
thread is about places. Post your favorite songs about cities, counties, states, and countries. Songs about places you’ve been or places you would like to visit.
As always, have fun and don’t forget to smile while doing so! 😉
Boston – You’re My Home-The Standells
James Taylor – Carolina in My Mind
Joni Mitchell – In France They Kiss On Main Street
Billy Joel New York State of Mind
Led Zeppelin Going to California
Simon & Garfunkel – America
These guys are good and I like the subject. Critters, gotta love “em.
These guys sound good together.

KT, I always wish I could play like that. The only talent I have is the radio. I can turn it on and adjust the volume and even change the channel. Pretty good , huh?

Where ever we are there seems to be some place to just “Walk right in and sit right down”…
Wow, I haven’t heard this is decades. Pretty cool.
