On That Note: Where the Streets Have a Name

[IsUaClone2]

I know this song has been posted but I don't think this version has:



and I think that takes us to:



but that means we are a long way away from Bourbon Street:



While we're in New Orleans, let's meet Louis Armstrong at Basin Street:

Well, we rolled up Interstate 44.... like a rocket sled on rails.

Don't think I saw this yet.


“She's the terror of Colorado Boulevard”

A couple more for New York City:

"Stop at Third and Forty-three, exit to the night”




“So I wandered down Eighth Avenue”

Well, we rolled up Interstate 44.... like a rocket sled on rails.

I've used this one in several categories. It *ahem* covers a lot of territory.

I'll show myself out...

"Hangin' out with Lars down on 6th street"...
"Hangin' on the corner of 52nd and Broadway"...

Barbara Mandrell: There's No Love In Tennessee
"...on Beale Street, they still sing the blues..."



Depeche Mode: Route 66



Miranda Lambert: Gunpowder And Lead
"County Road 233, under my feet..."

Grateful Dead - Truckin

Arrows of neon and flashing marquees out on Main Street
Chicago, New York, Detroit and it's all on the same street
...
Busted, down on Bourbon Street
Set up, like a bowlin' pin
Knocked down, it gets to wearin' thin
They just won't let you be

 

[CtownCyclone]

Bruce Springsteen - Darlington County

And we'll leave this Darlington City
For a ride down that Dixie Highway

 

[CtownCyclone]

And for something completely different...
Comal County Blue - Jason Boland and the Stragglers

There's one rolled in my ash tray
I'm taking Hunter Road.
Out by Riley's Tavern
Where my liquor love to flow.
We'll skip around San Marcos
Stop and tell Doug hello.
2nd gear up Congress
You know I like to take it slow.

[Cydar]

Then I'm walking in Memphis
Was walking with my feet, ten feet off of Beale

 

[BoxsterCy]

Cindy's cryin' but it ain't no use -
She's got a habit and she can't get loose.
Stoppin' each and ev'ry man she meets,
Gonna be a hooker on Bleecker Street.
On Bleecker Street,

Somewhat obscure and a Wednesday BoxsterCy flashback special. Used to get airtime on KAAY 50 years ago on Clyde Clifford's strangle nightly radio show. His show was called Beaker Street and the song references a similar "Bleecker Street". A Tom Paxton song but the version played back than was that of a local Little Rock band, Deep Water Revival. Cover was better than Paxtons, more haunting with the female vocal.

This song is about a house in Boulder, CO where the band lived.
