This old ribbon of blacktop stretched from Los Angeles to Chicago. Driving in the southwest or  Oklahoma you couldn't have missed it, whether or not you saw (or stayed in) those crazy tee-pees.

If you ever plan to motor west
Travel my way, the highway that's the best.
Get your kicks on Route 66!


Bobby Troup wrote it after driving to California. He presented it to Nat King Cole who made it one of the biggest hit singles of his career. Then it was a hit for Chuck Berry, The Stones, Herman Brood, The Cramps, Depeche Mode, John Mayer,  Asleep at the Wheel, Buckwheat Zydeco, and Van Morrison. small version | blogged | read the history
