I drive a big rig & owned my own for 10 yrs.

In my travels across the US & Canada I've been able to compile a list of music that I would never have heard staying local. For instance, I was just going through some old notebooks & discovered I had written down PJ Harvey & Peter Elliot from around 1992. I don't have a clue who Peter Elliot is though!

Hey Driver,

That used to be one of my favorite parts of driving around different parts of the country. Too bad the "corporate stations" have taken over. Now I only find unique music on stations that are below 92 on the FM dial (College, public, etc).

It's kind of sad. Like fast food and chain stores, big money has killed the unique music of different areas.

Mind you, I'm not complaining, just longing for the old days. This is a great big country and I still enjoy the uniqueness of different Cities, States, Regions, but it's getting hard to find a decent radio station and a locally owned restaurant........

Oh, yeah, about PJ Harvey: I don't get it!!!!!

Enjoy,

Hey Reubent,

The thing about PJ Harvey is it was new at the time & I didn't realize she went back that far. I take it you don't get her music? I only get some of it :-}

I would go as far as saying most radio is putrid redundancy & in fact I drove the last 550 or so miles of a road trip last week w/o listening to it.
