Maybe one of the best "classic sounding" country tunes I've heard in recent years:
It's a great trucking song, too!
One of the problems with modern country “music” is authenticity, and that song is no different. Nobody who ever drove a truck had a hand in writing that song. No Peterbilt has 14 gears, 9, 10, 13, 15 or 18 but no 14.
There were old trucks with carious other combinations through a Brownlight and Spicer auxiliary boxes but none ever referred to as 14 gears.
In Nashville they put 30-40 people in a room to manufacture songs.
Real music is written by inspiration by people who have lived the life.
