Kop Hill Climb 2014 (4) Added to 'Soundtrack to Life' www.ipernity.com/group/362993 I know this is a pale blue Ford Thunderbird but for the purposes of 'Soundtrack to Life' we have to imagine that this is a 'Silver Thunderbird' 'cos that saves me trying to change its colour in Photoshop :-))) And, for me, the obvious link is “Silver Thunderbird” by Marc Cohn. I don't know why Marc is not spoken about in hushed tones in the same way as Jackson Browne, Rodney Crowell, Bob Dylan, James Taylor, Paul Simon etc. would be :-) Marc has written some cracking songs in addition to "Silver Thunderbird" e.g. “Walking In Memphis”, “The Things We've Handed Down”, “Walk Through The World”, “Olana”, “Healing Hands”, “True Companion” …the list is endless :-) Watched it coming up Winslow Down South Park Boulevard Yeah it was looking good from tail to hood Great big fins and painted steel Man it looked just like the bat mobile With my old man behind the wheel Well you could hardly even see him in all of that chrome The man with the plan and the pocket comb But every night it carried him home And I could hear him saying Don't you give me no Buick Son, you must take my word If there's a God in heaven He's got a Silver Thunderbird You can keep your Eldorados And the foreign car's absurd Me, I wanna go down In a Silver Thunderbird.................................
