I've always had an interest in US politics, and a weird thing about songs about US place names. So following on yesterday's posts, I thought I might shadow the primaries and caucuses with songs about the places and about some of the issues. We'll begin with Iowa.
And, here's one for Hilary Clinton and Rudi G.
Bill Bryson famously opened The Lost Continent with 'I come from Des Moines, somebody had to.' An old Mark Olson song.
I'll kick off the politics with a reflection on the fact that Huckabee was seen playing bass on Sweet Home Alabama.
Incidentally, the very mp3 that converted me to the Truckers.
Buy these artists' music here.
