I also had lunch in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, but I couldn't come up with a song for that one...

Here's a musical itinerary of my recent road trip starting from LA. 

Made it out to Needles...


 

Stood on a corner in Winslow, Arizona (where Jackson Browne's truck breaking down is still a big deal)...

 


Drove down Route 66...
 


 


I would have headed back the same way, but a winter storm blew into Flagstaff so I came back by way of the low desert.

Down Tucson way there's a small cafe
Where they play a little cowboy tune.
And the guitar picker was a friend of mine
By the name of Randy Boone.

 

Yea, Randy played her a sweet love song
And Della got a fire in her eye
The Dealer had a knife and the dog had a gun
and the cat had a shot of Rye.

And passed through Phoenix, probably the only overlap in the catalogs of Glen Campbell and Isaac Hayes.
 


Warning: this is the long one.
