What song would go with your truck?
I know this is kind of off topic, but does pertain to what music was going on at the of our trucks when they were produced:
I was thinking about songs that were popular in the year they were made. Not songs you just like~ it has to be specific to the year of your truck and what was going on then. I was hoping mine could have been Wolverton Mountain (1962)! IT was played alot on the juke box at my high school. Instead, I chose Jim Ed Brown's ~ The Three Bells made in 1959 (I was 4 then), which also went to write ,"Pop a top" one of the greatest country hits ever.  What song/music goes with your truck?

Re: What song would go with your truck?
I wanted to say either funk #49 or life's been good by Joe Walsh, but that's about 20 years too late..
Then I wanted to say Runaround Sue by Dion and the Belmonts, but it didn't hit the charts till 1961... So I'll go with The Midnight Special Let The Midnight Special - The Weavers - (Lyrics) - YouTube Although.... if we could pick an even older song, I definitely choose Minnie the Moocher Cab Calloway - Minnie the Moocher - YouTube Maybe even Swing, Swing, Swing by Benny Goodman Last edited by mechanixman; 07-08-2013 at 02:59 PM. |

Re: What song would go with your truck?
Anything by Chuck Berry goes great with classic cars and trucks. I play him a lot when cruising. Well even when I'm working on cars.lol

Sammy Hagar- "I can't drive 55"
Albeit perhaps not the way Sammy intended it...

Re: What song would go with your truck?
The lady said, "...it has to be specific to the year of your truck" you bozos! lol. Don't yoo reed dy-rek-shuns?!
1955 hits: Rock Around the Clock, Bill Haley and the Comets. It was in American Graffiti, that's good enough for me! ...and one of my all time favorites from one of THE all time greatest vocal groups that no one ever talks about. "Only You" by The Platters Man, why doesn't anyone cover their songs? Answer: They can't! |

Re: What song would go with your truck?
This must not be a thread for the youngsters on here
I remember my dad had the "cruising to the oldies" cassette sets that i think Shell used to sell a long while back. I think he still has them too.
