Complete List

Americans and Canadians have long sung the praises of the open road. Below is a list of songs that focus on the highways, roadside culture and vehicles. Please send your favorite roads songs to frank@route40.net.

Many people have contacted me about where to find some of these recordings. I've now got links on this page to Amazon.com's CD store or to Tower Records. If the song appears on more than one album by an artist, I tried to go with the original release. If you see a song you'd like to buy, click on the link!

Artists listed with a bold red section sign (§) indicate that I have the recording. Please don't ask me for tapes of songs. Sorry. :-( As you can see, most of these songs are not in my collection. In addition, even the recordings I do have I don't make available due to copyright and performance rights issues.

Another wonderful source is the archive of old 78s and 45s formerly known as Arnold's Archives. I am indebted to Arnold Jacobson for his list of great old road and car songs. About 1991, Arnold donated his enire collection to the Chicago Public Library. Arnold still does archival research for students, collectors and reseachers. Mr. Jacobson's address is:

1106 Eastwood, SE
East Grand Rapids, MI 49506.
