ohmygod!!!!

i thought i was the only human left on the planet who liked Uriah Heep???
Demons & Wizards...the WHOLE album!!!! great driving music
(and must add a nod to Taraswizard for the Aerosmith...but i would go with Get Your Wings!!!)
Bonnie...ah...what can i say? i go way way back as a Bonnie fan and have several albums including the one Runaway is on...Streetlights (where she does a KILLER cover, btw, of Joni Mitchell's That Song About the Midway which is a great driving song!!!)...and certainly Nick of Time for a long drive down I-75 between Louisville and Lexington!!

hooray Duck...good road trip!!!
