Art & Inspiration Hot Rods and Music

We lost Little Richard last month.
One of my favorites from him.
Upbeat enough, I think. LOL
Long Tall Sally

Long Tall Sally, she's
Built for speed, she's got
Everything that Uncle John needs oh baby

 

Booker T & the MG's other cool tune. Time Is Tight.

Green Onions sounds like a badass hot rod lurking around, spoiling for a race at night.

Time Is Tight sounds like a drive down the highway in a Kustom Konvertible on a summer day.

 

Nice, Paul.

Henry Ford, Ransom Olds and Philander Roots... standing shoulder-to-shoulder, arms folded... with big-ass grins.

 

Hot Rod Music.......has to be this (despite the missing start due to damaged tape)

 

Beach Boys played at the SEMA banquet...’32 Fords surrounded the stage.

 

Ronnie Spector and The Ronettes. For 1963, this was IT.
Not a fast tune, but definitely on the short list for cruisin'.
... especially if your sweetheart was with you.

 

Best cruisin' tune ever...

 

Wait... THIS is the best cruising tune ever.
One of 'em, anyway.

 

It’s a Platters day.

Hot dogs, apple pie...
Hot rods & Rock & Roll.

What a rich musical history we have. I love America.

Shake your tail feathers!

 

Surfing music. Riding a big rolling ocean wave on a piece of fiberglassed foam.
Wow.

Sounds like victory.

Like maybe after finally finishing your hot rod and the first time getting it up to 80 mph on a long stretch of open highway.

 

I play that one often.
When I need some inspiration...
motivation... a boot in the ass.

 

Chuck Berry, the Beach Boys, Bill Haley, etc.

 

I play this song before every race... so I won't be afeared.

 

Have a goooooood Sunday!
