High Sierra Topix

Good ol' Grateful Dead, To Lay Me Down ..somewhere, lost and dreaming in a sky meadow...

Jim Croce cover of Son's of the Pioneer's Cigarettes, Whiskey and Wild Women (in that bar along Hwy 395 in Independence, back in the day). I do declare Croce's cover is much finer than the original artists' recording.

Prophetic and Ironic, this Croce recording was posthumously released: Photographs and Memories.



One of my favorites for late night drives on Hwy 395, The Wheel, by Gerry Garcia.


Or perhaps in a bigger Rush to get there (Dreamline, by Rush).


Even better yet, the ultimate drive time tune by Nelson Riddle, Route 66 Theme.


Trademark, by Eric Johnson - another nice drive time composition I like to listen to on my way to snow trips. Ed

Given the weather lately. Seriously, I'm expecting salmon to spawn at any minute on the gravel on my driveway.
