Good Travelin' Songs

I kinda pick an odd medley of music for my journeys. I pray my travels become spiritually cleansing and I never really know what is gonna "move me". I grew up country, listened to the classics, hid amongst the alt-rockers while pretending to be young and tried, in earnest, to understand urban hip-hop. Somewhere along the way I found myself, but you could hardly classify it as anything, but me. So, I'm not really confident your interested in any of this, but I always find myself making sure I have "my" music. A crying child can disappear with a well thought out playlist. You never know.

Here is a list of killer travel/escape/destination tunes you may enjoy...

Around the World- Red Hot Chili Peppers
Wherever I May Roam - Metallica
King of the Road - Roger Miller
Life is a Highway - Tom Cochran
Fly Away - Lenny Kravitz
Come Away With Me - Norah Jones
Changes in Latitude, Changes in Attitude - Jimmy Buffet
Ramblin' Man - Allman Brothers
Ramble On - Led Zeppelin (Honestly, I have Led Zeppelin I-IV always on iPod)
Freebird - Lynrd Skynrd
The River - Garth Brooks
The Fireman - George Strait
America - Simon & Garfunkel
Time to Move On - Tom Petty
Marrakesh Express - Crosby, Stills and Nash
City of New Orleans - Arlo Guthrie
Fire and Rain - James Taylor
Scenes From an Italian Restaurant - Billy Joel
Carolina on My Mind - James Taylor
Taking the Long Way Around - the Dixie Chicks (I've spent some time on protest, but I can forgive. Kanye West is still in my doghouse.)
Hook - Blues Travelers

I could have contributed to this list for hours, I have over a thousand on my iPhone. One thing is for sure, there are five bands I never leave home without, Led Zeppelin, Reckless Kelly, Johnny Cash, Blues Travelers and, of course, Jimmy Buffett. I think I can turn any moment on the road into a Jimmy Buffett song. My wife thinks I'm the embodiment of Buffett's, "School Boy Heart". She oughta know, she's smart.
Remember, don't take the well-worn path. Blaze your own. But don't forget your earbuds.
