Definitely the best.  It mentions NYC, though.

Music so clean and so clear you could drink from it.

Lots of good songs listed, but I have to give some love to the home town.

Listen again. "Standing on the corner" Winslow only had one when the song was written.

Winslow, AZ had only one corner in 1972?  No.  Just...no.

My first trip to Winslow was in 76. I don't remember many paved cross streets. ( I wasn't real excited to be there)

Paradise by John Prine





Kind of surprised this song has not been put on here yet. very well known song here where I live, its only several miles away. Sadly it is a town that no longer exist and that is what the song is about.

Doraville by Atlanta Rhythm section.  Written in 1974.  It has the classic line: “a touch of country in the city’.  I recently drove through Doraville and it is still a touch of country.  I’m just not sure which country: Vietnam?  Mexico? Somewhere else?  Sure as hell ain’t the US of A.  "Doraville, it ain't much" that's for sure.

From back in the 70's when Baltimore was a dump, and it still applies today.  Thank you, Leftists and FSA!
