Hi Folks!  We continue our November tradition by talking about Arlo Guthrie's version of 'City of New Orleans'.  Originally penned by Steve Goodman, Arlo took this song and made it his own.  Appearing on Arlo's 1972 album 'Hobo's Lullaby', 'City of New Orleans' would be the highest charting song of Arlo's career.  We talk about Steve Goodman's, Arlo Guthrie's and Willie Nelson's version of this song.  We also discuss trains, America and what we are thankful for this year.  How does Willie's version sound like Jimmy Buffett? Tune in and find out! Thanks for listening!
