Thanks for the ping - this whole week has brought a lot of memories and brought to mind a lot of other old car race and tragedy tunes like "Hot Rod Lincoln", "Last Kiss", "GTO", "Shut Down", et al. that I haven't thought about for quite some time.

Oh yeah? What others?

Chuck Berry, of course: "Maybelline", "No Particular Place to Go", "No Money Down." Brian Wilson once said that the original goal of his music was to combine Four Freshmen vocals with Chuck Berry's guitar.

And, one more - "Bucket T" that Jan & Dean and, I think, Ronnie and the Daytonas also released.

It contains one of the great line in the history of rock:

"All the girls wanna ride with me
But there's only one seat in my Bucket T."

A little irony from the dark ages.
