I’ve listened to this playlist at least 10 times; it serves its purpose — every song reminds me of a place along the way (Winnemucca) , or an event (check yo self), or maybe just a part of the trip (“silver machine”). Some of the best song ideas came from others. I’m still open to improvements 🙂 …. my teeth grate every time I have to listen to “One Bad Apple” for example.
