C.W. McCall ~ Four Wheel Drive

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

^^I saw Convoy once a long time ago, but don't remember anything about it. I think Kris Kristofferson was in it. It was on TV a couple of months ago, but I didn't watch it. But Burt Reynolds was the king of these kind of movies with White Lightning, Gator, Smokey & The Bandit, Cannonball Run, etc. I think The Jacksons did Convoy on their variety show.

I think most of his album were trucker tunes. CB's were popular in the 1970's. Even Good Times had an episode about it. lol
