Tuesday Tunes: King of the Road

Huge Roger Miller fan here. I grew up hearing this song. It was one of my mom's favorites.

I was in the Army, stationed in El Paso when Roger Miller's record was popular. He was different and we enjoyed "King of the Road" when it played.

Anthony: I liked his other songs too...You Can't Roller Skate in a Buffalo Herd, England Swings, and Dang Me. Great tunes.

Have I mentioned how much I enjoy dropping by for Tuesday Tunes? Fantastic song - it evokes its time perfectly. And you know, I went to school with Roger Miller. (No, not that one - even my adventures didn't extend that far!) A different Roger Miller, but you can bet that as a part of being on the yearbook staff - I made sure that his senior picture caption read "Roger Miller - A man of means by no means. King of the Road!" I think he just forgave me for that last week. Great song choice! No danging you for this one! Cheers!

Craig: I think it would be fun to share a name with a celebrity (as long as it's one as awesome as Roger Miller). He actually looked and sounded like my uncle. It was weird.

You always surprise with your antecdotes...love it.

I love movies and music and decided my blog was the place to share the joy. Thanks for stopping by.
