My First Post!!!! I'm so excited to be a part of this forum now!!!
Two words....John...Denver
I haven't done a lot of touring yet (I'll be asking a lot of favors soon) but when I do ride up in the mountains on a day trip...It's Rocky Mountain High & Country Roads all day long.

I don't use an iPod or other music player on tour other than maybe for audio books. That said music does play in my head. I have little control over what the selections might be. Sometimes I sing out loud others not.

You might like Katie Melua's version of On th Road Again. I still like Canned Heat's original, but that's just me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPNaOt646_M

Check your local public library to see if they have a CD collection. I have 10,000 songs on my iPod. Few paid for, most free. Easy way to quickly get a big collection and wide range.
