The Nashville Teens – “Tobacco Road”
I don’t think I would’ve ever heard about this British pop group from the 60s had I not caught this tune playing over the closing credits of Episode 1, Season 4 of Mad Men. I wondered if it was The Beatles, then wondered who the heck it was… so I used the handy Shazam app on my iPhone to ‘tag’ and identify the song. Isn’t it amazing how classic tunes like this kinda sound like they could’ve been recorded yesterday?
Hahaha! High school summers. Working on the tobacco farms. Up at five AM, tape your hands, catch the bus, come home filthy, take a bath, and go out dancin’.
