ChrisBcritter Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 (edited) 'Cause the wind was my mother, the highway is my brother"Born to Wander", Rare Earth. Fun fact: This song was playing on L.A. radio (either KRLA or KHJ, can't remember which) at 6:00 AM on February 9, 1971 when buildings, freeway overpasses, and anything not nailed down started wandering around - the Sylmar earthquake.ETA: It was KHJ; the DJ was Charlie Tuna. On the aircheck, he says "I'm a little shaky this morning." Forty seconds later...You can hear it here:http://www.radiohof.org/charlie_tuna.htm Edited September 5, 2016 by ChrisBcritter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
