American Road Trip Compilation (Universal Music)
They say that this compilation will transform your Corsa into a Corvette.
Well, if you have the good weather to go with it, maybe it could be true.
The compilation is a journey through the heart of America.
Running through 3 CDs the 60 track album features some of the biggest rock anthems of all time.
They certainly have managed to get a classic set of tracks here and it is probably the first time you can get all these tracks together on a compilation.
CD1 kicks things off with Bon Jovi
Livin on A Prayer, followed by Fleetwood Mac and
Go Your Own Way.
The quality continues with Boston and
More Than A Feeling and Journey with
Don't Stop Believing.
When you hear tracks like Eye of the Tiger by Survivor,
Ride Like The Wind by Christopher Cross you wish they released tracks as good as this in 2017.
CD2 has Starship with
We Built This City, ZZ Top with
Sharp Dressed Man and Kiss with
I Was Made For Lovin You amongst others.
By the time we get to
CD3 the tracks might be forgotten classics such as
Gypsy Road by Cinderella,
Every Rose Has its Thorn by Poison and Willie Nelson with
On The Road Again.
Still a great compilation though.
