I love how no matter where Mav goes or what he's doing, he's always got such a positive vibe. Dude could be shipwrecked in Antarctica and would still think it's fun.
@@GamingDualities right! Take daddy's money away half way through the trip in the middle of nowhere in the mid west with towns 2 hours apart, with a flat tire and see how happy the little twat is now! Don't worrie, he will be a CEO before he is 30.
I did the Route 66 in 1966. Starting from Toronto Canada, finishing in LA. Where I caught a ship home to New Zealand after two years, my Oversea experience living and working in Canada . An Amazing and very memorable journey. Kiwi from Virginia.
My dad is owner of Cars of the Mother Road in Williams. I can't believe you went to his shop, met him, and featured it in this video! What a small world. Love your content. Keep up the good work, Mav!
I’ve followed you for the longest time possible but anytime watch your video again gives me the motivation to drive across the country again. I drive all the way from California to Illinois twice. I feel the frustration of being alone on the empty road but trust me, rather than having someone eventually disappear from your life after the trip renders the whole memories meaningless. Love your video as always my friend.
Its nice to see someone comfortable being on their own and having so much fun all by himself. Alot of people think they have to bring a friend or lover with them in order to have fun. Shows you dont need anybody or any plans to have a good time and enjoy life.
I rode Route 66 with a friend over the summer, and definitely wanna try it again by myself, given I was the one most interested in the history of the road. Has tons of benefits to have a pal, but I can’t say which is better until I’ve done both
Agreed, I spent years trying to enjoy my own company because I figured if I did not how could I enjoy others and not be a burden on them? I think I was right being I enjoy doing things alone but it is not an easy lesson especially at the beginning..
I drove across Canada in a Ford ranger in February once. That was pretty crazy. Ended up ditching the truck and coming back by train where I met a girl. We hit it off and hooked up on the train. Good times.
@@AK-yx3uu Nope, we screwed around a few more times when she was on the east coast but never went steady. I was 26 and she was 19, neither of us were looking to settle down at the time. We were both having too much fun doing being single I guess.
I'm a little old lady in Canada and I've just seen my best auto camping trip yet and I've been watching these for years. Such an inspiring fellow! So glad Mav took us along on Route 66. Dang - I've just added this route to my bucket list!
It really made me happy seeing you ask the lady about the history of the motel I bet she loved it and made her day - even small conversation can brighten up anyone
With my sisters in their 70s and me pushing that number as well, I'm convinced now we aren't going to be able to make the Rt 66 Trip. I am so glad I got to see part of it through ur eyes and video. Thanks for sharing.
He is so refreshing. Funny. Respectful. Curious. Energetic. Keep brushing those pearly whites and making these videos!!! It was fun to see places I've been to in my past, and see a lot of new places I've never seen before.
When I was about 8, I took a road trip from PA to AZ and passed through a decent amount of Route 66. We stopped for all the ridiculous things we could fin, and you visited a lot of the same things. 10 years later, now, it’s crazy to see my favorite vlogger visit the same places. Keep on trucking :)
I’ve passed through amboy a lot and it was amazing seeing him pass through it too. I went to Las Vegas in July and we passed by it then and during December we went to Utah and we passed by it then. I love road trips and to look out the window and seeing the landscape.
Mav I just stumbled upon your videos and it is so refreshing to see how genuinely kind and thoughtful you are when creating your videos. I don't normally subscribe to this type of channel but I am loving it so far and look forward to binging your content! Amazing job buddy!!
I’ve seen a couple of RUclipsrs do this, but yours was the most fun. Thanks. Your smile is looking pearly white in the last couple of videos! Gotta love that. Smile!
After growing up in Vegas and living in LA for 20 years, the new beginning of the trail at Santa Monica Pier is very appropriate. A lot of of us are traveling the eastbound route. PS: I had a add this after I saw what I saw you do in Joplin ... Legendary.
This will go down as one of Mav's best episodes. Loved it! Watching his videos always makes me feel a more positive outlook on life. Thanks for being such a good dude Mav!
All the folks you met along the way on Route 66 were super nice especially where you got the cool hat from Buck at "Cars of the Mother Road" and Ramona at the Munger Moss Motel in St. Louis, MO. She was so sweet! Love the fact, you're so kind and respectful to everyone you meet from all your travels. I appreciate you and your handsome blue eyes. Stay safe Mav.
I am so happy that you were able to do this at such a young age. I am 58 now and have always wanted to. I still plan on it and your video really motivated me to get it done! Thanks Mav for this and all your content on your channel!
I love how that dude just straight up shot his hat in the middle of town. No cares in the world and with a single action army as well. That is a place I want to visit now.
You've done more in this trip than most ppl done in their lives. Enjoy everything you're doing. Everyday live it to the fullest n ENJOY! Keep truckin homie!
Absolutely amazing. I am going to do this trip now. I drive 3k-4K miles easily in my road trips around Europe. This looks awesome 👏 Great story telling and editing too
I didnt mean to hit the dislike button haha, hit it by accident but I meant to hit the like button, mistake fixed haha. My bad man. Hope you enjoy the drive.
This is awesome, nice work as usual! Fun fact: the Pixar gang stopped along multiple Route 66 towns (including my own) to gather info and inspiration for the first "Cars" film. So some of the places you stopped at, like the Wigwam Motel, made it into the movie. So many cool stories along that road, thanks for sharing with us!
I drove portions of it years ago. I drove from Cleveland area to Tucson in 2 days. Didn't get to stop much, but did make sure to see the scenery as much as possible
Mav, Dude! You and Murry tore it up. He's a tough dude. It's a great experience for you both. But it's so freaking cold! Totally enjoyed this video and you know how to rough it and have fun too. Thanks for taking us along. BTW, I have to laugh at that signal light that says, " WAIT WAIT, "
Mav, that's the way to make memories you can tell your kids when you get married. I used to live in NYC moved to the seacoast of NH in 1982. My ex and I split in 1995, I was just 42 then (I'm 68 now), I drove to Sedona AZ from NH lived in my car for 18 months. I went back 7 times to NH & NYC drove all across America in the south, eat food in New Orleans, St Louis & went up into the Arch there was so cool. went to Roswell, NM stopped at the ranch where the "UFO" crashed landed. saw a lot of strange things at night there and out in the National Forest. Enjoy it while you can. but Gas was cheaper then & I was driving a 1989 Dodge Omni my dad gave me for $1.00 (it was my two sisters who used it for college on Long Island, NY) I got it it had about 92,000 miles on it and it was well kept. when I got rid of it it had over 205,000 miles on it I was getting 34MPG highway. I got the car in 1994, Gas was about .969/gal when I started in 1995 & $1.20/gal in 2002. I traded it in and got a 1997 Dodge Caravan with 23,000 miles on it. Peace Love Light...
Lifelong NYC resident. Have family on long island too. My brother in law's father moved to Sedona about 10 years ago. They just came back from there a few weeks ago.
Mav, my wife and I have been watching your channel for quite a while and finally got around to subscribing today. Your show on Route 66 was quite entertaining! I didn't think you could do it in 5 days and still stop and have fun along the way (loved the zipline!), but you somehow did. Your show just keeps getting better. Two thumbs up!
Why? Why does everything have to be fast? I'd rather have watched it in installments....Route 66 is FASCINATING and there is so so much to see! Slow the f down, man! Smell the roses and stuff.
I say this everytime I watch you, you're SUCH a humble kind soul, I hope God continues to bless you bc you absolutely deserve it. You radiate good vibes ☺🤙🏼
27:15 that’s not the famous lookout point for Devil’s Elbow. But scary story, when I stopped on the actual bridge, 2 tornados suddenly dropped out of sky and touched down for about 30 seconds and then disintegrated. It was so fascinating, made the view and the memory so much more impactful! Made it a very devilish experience.
I live and worked in Arizona my whole life and have drove past all the things you’ve visited 100s of times without stopping. Just goes to show you how we can take things for granted.
He drove it backwards and ignored every opportunity to find history but he did find every magnet everyone was selling I like his videos but really hate Route 66 videos done by people who think it’s just a drive and not how people looked for opportunity
Thanks so much for this video! Enjoyed watching all the interesting stops, the food, people you met. Always wondered what the Rte 66 road trip would be like. Thanks for taking us on this journey with you!
When I was ten, my family moved from Northern I'll, to Anaheim, Ca. This was in1954, before Disneyland. We would go back to I'll, every other year on 66. I'll never forget, my mom and six kids. Indian themed motels, mom and pop food stands.Those we're the days! When on our third summer trip, my mom grew sick in Lawrence , Kan. I was 16 and drove the rest of the way to Hampshire, I'll.. My older bro and sis (16,17) didn't drive yet, so lucky me! We would do the trip in three days out and back to have enough time visiting. My Pom would plane back for the week than fly back to ,cal to work, obviously to help pay for great summer vacation for us all. Thanks, MOM , and Dad.
Yayyyyyyeee drive safe bud☺ and have fun! Also thought it worth mentioning: thank you for providing us content. It truly brightens my day and gives me so much inspiration to be kinder to every human around me and also appreciate everything I see. I found myself saying hello to quite a beautiful tree yesterday... felt strange but also right ✅ haha thanks mav☺
What an amazing video, thank you Mav, as a 51 year old woman from New Zealand it has been a dream of mine to drive Route 66, probably will never get the chance, but this video sure made me smile, you are wonderful, best wishes in all you do
We stayed at the Wigwam Motel in Holbrook!! The rooms are super comfy and totally vintage, with old original furniture and wall art. The people who run it are super nice, too.
When I was a senior we drove to joplin from Wisconsin after the tornado to help. Seeing that sent chills up my spine. Seriously. I hope there doing well if anyone from joplin sees this I think about you guys often in the summer time.
From Joplin; you guys don't know how much you're appreciated down here. If it wasn't for everyone's help I don't know what we would have all done. Thank you all so much
Just found your channel. Big fan already and I’ve been going back and watching your adventures. Not only do I enjoy what you do, but you have the best attitude and personality for the job.
Mav brother, love it man!! can tell your momma raised ya right, got proper manners! always thankin people for shit thats just awesome man! spread them positive vibes!!
Hey Mav, I’m from Rolla, Missouri! It was really neat watching you stop at the Devils Elbow! There’s a lot of cool, historical stuff around here in Mid-Mo! Really enjoy the channel, safe travels!
Love this trip on Route 66 you took. A couple of times we have taken part of Route 66 from CA on south to Sedona, AZ and always stop at Oatman, AZ (donkeys in the streets of this small interesting town) as well as Seligman, AZ which is the iconic Route 66 town. It has much Route 66 memorabelia large and small as well as the historic Route 66 vibe. We met barber Angel Delgadillo there who was key in having Route 66 dedicated as an historic highway.
Man, I need to start saving up for a road trip now. Start planning it out later in the future. Really cool to watch you just travel in the states. Safe travels always.
Immediately started singing those State Champs, Real Friends & Nothing, Nowhere songs with Mav. 2nd video of his that I've heard some pop-punk. Keep the good tunes comin'!
Not only is Mav very polite but this channel says a lot about how much fun you can have on your own, nothing wrong with hanging with people but it's nice to see how much fun someone can have just enjoying their own company. I just found this channel recently and I am so glad.
Excellent video, my little pony!!! I’m proud of you. You show people love and they respond accordingly. Just keep on truckin, a very popular phrase in the 70’s when I was in high school. Y’all know the logo with a man stepping forward with one leg and the bottom of his shoe is the focal point. Saw it on a lot of t-shirts. It was cool and so are you. Sending love from the Northwoods of Florida.
I think I can speak for the majority of your subscribers in saying that this style of video was awesome. You should do other road trips through other states and routes. Go to other famous landmarks. Loved it my dude!
I used to live in Joplin, and I didn’t really care about Route 66. Now that I live far away from it I want to drive it! It was great to see it from your viewpoint!
Every time I feel like I need a good roadtrip, Mav comes through with the legitness! And i also appreciate his own appreciation of the people and history everywhere he goes
You remind me of the first time I looked at the Grand Canyon when I was about 19 years old. Ten minutes, "All right we've seen it lets go." Ha yes, I watch the whole video. Kiss at the end was a little much but, it did make me smile. Actually, you are making some good memories for yourself. Enjoy the ride again someday. You''ll be glad you did.
Just when I thought mavs channel couldn't get better!!! Brother what a fantastic idea to hit route 66 for some content. I'm only half way through this video but this is some good shit man. I hope you realize how special this is for your life bro. You're absolutely living it up dude and I'm more then happy to tag along. 🤟🇺🇸
I remember Route 66 when a friend and I road tripped from Racine WI to Eugene OR, sort of like this where we stopped at sites just to say we were there including, The Badlands in SD, MT. Rushmore, then once we left Eugene we went south on US 1/Pacific Coast highway through the redwoods over both the SF bridge and Oakland Bridge. Then on to LA where we visited Venice Beach and Griffith Park and on the way back we took route 66 until Joplin and no bs, my guys tranny overheated and we were stuck and standing on a corner in Winslow AZ which was not a fine site to see lol...
damn we just did route 66 took me 7 days we started in Chicago , we bought maps that helped us stay on the 2 lane as much as possible 5700 mile trip for us in a seinna with a bed love it loved that bug at the teepee motel thought of u mav
Mav, you're an old soul. You're such a polite and personable person. Yoir parents raised you well. Please tell them that. I am digging your journey. Keep on truckin'! 🤠
In 2010 I took a few days off work and had a Route 66 mini vacation, went from St. Clair, MO and ended the trip a little bit into Oklahoma, couldn't go any further, it was very fun! We had to use a website to follow Route 66 as best we could, as some of it just doesn't exist anymore, like had to get on I-44 for some of it, etc. When you were in OK and MO some of that looked familiar! This was a really cool video, thanks for making it.
Trivia on Route 66. A song called "Get Your Kicks On Route 66" about Route 66 was written by Bobby Troup. Bobby Troup who played Dr. Joe Early on the TV show Emergency back in the 70's. Bobby Troup wife Julie London was also on Emergency who played Nurse Dixie McCall.
I know I’m a little late to the comments but your road trip playlist was firing. I know for a fact I heard, state champs, real friends, and movements. Love it Mav
Best Ending to a vlog EVER!!!!!!💋 several years ago my Volvo quit in Gallup NM.... wonderful few days on route 66. Loved the light, loved our native American and it was so relaxing. Thank you for sharing. The video on the set up of a hot air balloon was good stuff. Keep On Trucking 👍
Me and you both. Life is too short to not do anything. I would start saving up if I were you. We will see the world if we are determined enough to do so :]
Many, many years ago, Bobby Troup, the writer of "Route 66", stopped in my father's bar in Connecticut with his wife, Julie London. He sang and played the piano for a few hours. My parents said they were very gracious and down to earth. Some of you may remember Bobby and Julie as Dr. Joe Early and Nurse Dixie McCall from the TV show "Emergency!".
Julie is such an underrated jazz singer! Her old albums are collectors items and not just for the gorgeous pinup cover art! She was really a brilliant vocalist with an unforgettable, smoky voice. I have driven Route 66 whilst playing her old albums....the perfect soundtrack.
@@denverdubois5835 My father and my Uncle had her album. I still have it and you're so right, her voice is so smoky and sultry. I can really understand why the men loved her.
It is noticed that you treat everyone with respect and kindness. You’re a good man!

Yess bro you are right.
I don’t know what he does exactly, but Mav is definitely doing the Lords work. He made those little old ladies year, just by being curious.
If you do not know what he is doing how can he be doing anything! Your THICC.
@@mrdg1523 nothing but love. Need a hug?
@@acegood7058 Your mo other already gave me one. And a hug.
@@mrdg1523 my mom gave you one what?

When I was stationed in 29 Palms we used to drive that exact stretch of route 66 passed Roy's Cafe to head to Vegas on the weekends, great memories.
I live and worked in Arizona my whole life and have drove past all the things you’ve visited 100s of times without stopping. Just goes to show you how we can take things for granted.
Orrr you’re just not into tourist traps. Give yourself some credit.
Can we all appreciate the fact that this fella never disappointed us with his content 🤗 🤗 🤗
He drove it backwards and ignored every opportunity to find history but he did find every magnet everyone was selling I like his videos but really hate Route 66 videos done by people who think it’s just a drive and not how people looked for opportunity
@@vidguy007 they were pins.
@@vidguy007 not a history channel bud
Amen to this indeed
@@jayscholl4193 Pins for THICC people like you
Thanks so much for this video! Enjoyed watching all the interesting stops, the food, people you met. Always wondered what the Rte 66 road trip would be like. Thanks for taking us on this journey with you!
When I was ten, my family moved from Northern I'll, to Anaheim, Ca. This was in1954, before Disneyland. We would go back to I'll, every other year on 66. I'll never forget, my mom and six kids. Indian themed motels, mom and pop food stands.Those we're the days! When on our third summer trip, my mom grew sick in Lawrence , Kan. I was 16 and drove the rest of the way to Hampshire, I'll.. My older bro and sis (16,17) didn't drive yet, so lucky me! We would do the trip in three days out and back to have enough time visiting. My Pom would plane back for the week than fly back to ,cal to work, obviously to help pay for great summer vacation for us all. Thanks, MOM , and Dad.
Yayyyyyyeee drive safe bud☺ and have fun!
Also thought it worth mentioning: thank you for providing us content. It truly brightens my day and gives me so much inspiration to be kinder to every human around me and also appreciate everything I see. I found myself saying hello to quite a beautiful tree yesterday... felt strange but also right ✅ haha thanks mav☺
What an amazing video, thank you Mav, as a 51 year old woman from New Zealand it has been a dream of mine to drive Route 66, probably will never get the chance, but this video sure made me smile, you are wonderful, best wishes in all you do
We stayed at the Wigwam Motel in Holbrook!! The rooms are super comfy and totally vintage, with old original furniture and wall art. The people who run it are super nice, too.

When I was a senior we drove to joplin from Wisconsin after the tornado to help. Seeing that sent chills up my spine. Seriously. I hope there doing well if anyone from joplin sees this I think about you guys often in the summer time.
From Joplin; you guys don't know how much you're appreciated down here. If it wasn't for everyone's help I don't know what we would have all done. Thank you all so much
Just found your channel. Big fan already and I’ve been going back and watching your adventures. Not only do I enjoy what you do, but you have the best attitude and personality for the job.
Mav , you got to write a book sharing your experiences with a whole new demographic of fans. You are living a special life. Thanks for the grind!
"You ever see anyone do that before" is probably the best way I've ever heard someone passively say I'm sorry
Mav brother, love it man!! can tell your momma raised ya right, got proper manners! always thankin people for shit thats just awesome man! spread them positive vibes!!
You should start a spotify playlist with all of your travelin' tunes! I'm sure many of us would love to listen
Hey Mav, I’m from Rolla, Missouri! It was really neat watching you stop at the Devils Elbow! There’s a lot of cool, historical stuff around here in Mid-Mo! Really enjoy the channel, safe travels!
Love this trip on Route 66 you took. A couple of times we have taken part of Route 66 from CA on south to Sedona, AZ and always stop at Oatman, AZ (donkeys in the streets of this small interesting town) as well as Seligman, AZ which is the iconic Route 66 town. It has much Route 66 memorabelia large and small as well as the historic Route 66 vibe. We met barber Angel Delgadillo there who was key in having Route 66 dedicated as an historic highway.
Mav you’re the man. So genuine, I love that you love people.
Was raised the right way ,,, a true gent !!
Man, I need to start saving up for a road trip now. Start planning it out later in the future. Really cool to watch you just travel in the states. Safe travels always.
Immediately started singing those State Champs, Real Friends & Nothing, Nowhere songs with Mav. 2nd video of his that I've heard some pop-punk. Keep the good tunes comin'!
Let’s goo so Mav has brought us all together once again.🙏🏻 keep on trucking!
Not only is Mav very polite but this channel says a lot about how much fun you can have on your own, nothing wrong with hanging with people but it's nice to see how much fun someone can have just enjoying their own company. I just found this channel recently and I am so glad.
Been watching a ton of his videos for the past week and man one thing is for sure, Mav can freak up some food, clean plate club member for sure
This is one of my favorite videos! It's actually amazing to see how empty it was for you. Keep truckin and stay safe.
“It says no skateboarding, not no trucks”
- Quote from a true G😤🤣
Excellent video, my little pony!!! I’m proud of you. You show people love and they respond accordingly. Just keep on truckin, a very popular phrase in the 70’s when I was in high school. Y’all know the logo with a man stepping forward with one leg and the bottom of his shoe is the focal point. Saw it on a lot of t-shirts. It was cool and so are you. Sending love from the Northwoods of Florida.
I think I can speak for the majority of your subscribers in saying that this style of video was awesome. You should do other road trips through other states and routes. Go to other famous landmarks. Loved it my dude!
I used to live in Joplin, and I didn’t really care about Route 66. Now that I live far away from it I want to drive it! It was great to see it from your viewpoint!
I took this trip in 1980 . We flat towed a 67 GTX back form Cali with a 68 F100. It was great! Thanks for showing your feet so much in the video.
Every time I feel like I need a good roadtrip, Mav comes through with the legitness! And i also appreciate his own appreciation of the people and history everywhere he goes
Another few minutes of "me" time to leave the world and watch Mav on his adventures. One of the highlights of any week!
You remind me of the first time I looked at the Grand Canyon when I was about 19 years old. Ten minutes, "All right we've seen it lets go." Ha yes, I watch the whole video. Kiss at the end was a little much but, it did make me smile. Actually, you are making some good memories for yourself. Enjoy the ride again someday. You''ll be glad you did.
Just when I thought mavs channel couldn't get better!!! Brother what a fantastic idea to hit route 66 for some content. I'm only half way through this video but this is some good shit man. I hope you realize how special this is for your life bro. You're absolutely living it up dude and I'm more then happy to tag along. 🤟🇺🇸
"it says no skateboarding, not trucks" 🤣 that guy knows his way around the law.
Great story teller about your adventure, that is great of being single
😂
And now they will remake the sign 😂
Thanks for taking us with, Mav! I've always wanted to drive Route 66 but time hasn't allowed.
You are a fun guy!💯👍🥰
I remember Route 66 when a friend and I road tripped from Racine WI to Eugene OR, sort of like this where we stopped at sites just to say we were there including, The Badlands in SD, MT. Rushmore, then once we left Eugene we went south on US 1/Pacific Coast highway through the redwoods over both the SF bridge and Oakland Bridge. Then on to LA where we visited Venice Beach and Griffith Park and on the way back we took route 66 until Joplin and no bs, my guys tranny overheated and we were stuck and standing on a corner in Winslow AZ which was not a fine site to see lol...
damn we just did route 66 took me 7 days we started in Chicago , we bought maps that helped us stay on the 2 lane as much as possible 5700 mile trip for us in a seinna with a bed love it loved that bug at the teepee motel thought of u mav
2:48 i KNEW it was gonna be a good video when i heard the state champs cover of stitches!
Mav, you're an old soul. You're such a polite and personable person. Yoir parents raised you well. Please tell them that. I am digging your journey. Keep on truckin'! 🤠
Be safe brother man keep the videos coming…. Helps me threw this depression and hard times
When its ruff thank you much
In 2010 I took a few days off work and had a Route 66 mini vacation, went from St. Clair, MO and ended the trip a little bit into Oklahoma, couldn't go any further, it was very fun! We had to use a website to follow Route 66 as best we could, as some of it just doesn't exist anymore, like had to get on I-44 for some of it, etc. When you were in OK and MO some of that looked familiar! This was a really cool video, thanks for making it.
This is the kind of feel-good content that makes my whole week better. Thanks Mav! :D
Trivia on Route 66. A song called "Get Your Kicks On Route 66" about Route 66 was written by Bobby Troup. Bobby Troup who played Dr. Joe Early on the TV show Emergency back in the 70's. Bobby Troup wife Julie London was also on Emergency who played Nurse Dixie McCall.
I know I’m a little late to the comments but your road trip playlist was firing. I know for a fact I heard, state champs, real friends, and movements. Love it Mav
I respect this dude, he goes on adventures solo. Introvert lifestyle
Gotta add this trip to the bucket list. Thanks for taking us along.
Best Ending to a vlog EVER!!!!!!💋
several years ago my Volvo quit in Gallup NM.... wonderful few days on route 66. Loved the light, loved our native American and it was so relaxing.
Thank you for sharing. The video on the set up of a hot air balloon was good stuff.
Keep On Trucking 👍
What an awesome video. Such good vibes
ayyy Justin!
We need a MAV Spotify playlist!
YES!!!!
100% kK
Agreed!!!
I wanted to ask for this lol
Same
19:02 I have finally seen the day where you turn the ignition on with the right hand. This is nice to see for a change ☺️
This is the ultimate compilation of Mav recording himself getting in and out of the truck... and I'm here for it haha
As an extreme introvert the thought of doing things like this sounds very pleasant.
Me and you both. Life is too short to not do anything. I would start saving up if I were you. We will see the world if we are determined enough to do so :]
My neighbor was Richard Petty so I grew up with drag shows ... Gotten turned on to your vids so dope!!
Many, many years ago, Bobby Troup, the writer of "Route 66", stopped in my father's bar in Connecticut with his wife, Julie London. He sang and played the piano for a few hours. My parents said they were very gracious and down to earth. Some of you may remember Bobby and Julie as Dr. Joe Early and Nurse Dixie McCall from the TV show "Emergency!".
Julie is such an underrated jazz singer! Her old albums are collectors items and not just for the gorgeous pinup cover art! She was really a brilliant vocalist with an unforgettable, smoky voice. I have driven Route 66 whilst playing her old albums....the perfect soundtrack.
@@denverdubois5835 My father and my Uncle had her album. I still have it and you're so right, her voice is so smoky and sultry. I can really understand why the men loved her.
