Ah, the open road. It’s always there just waiting for you. All you have to do is decide to take it. Sometimes you just need to put everything behind you and just look out for what’s coming up ahead. Driving just for the sake of driving, because the best part of any road trip isn’t the destination. It’s what happens along the way.

Nobody knows the open road like country singers do. They’ve been driving up and down those highways, looking for the end of that long white line ever since Cliff Bruner & His Boys got the Truck Driver’s Blues way back in 1939, and they don’t look like they’ll be pulling over and parking up any time soon.

It might be a “goddamn impossible way of life” as Robbie Robertson says in The Last Waltz, but it’s got a mighty fine soundtrack to go along with it.
