I like to find the most obscure / rare music. This is one of those records.
I used to spend hours in a dusty/musty dark room (upstairs of the record store in Duluth,Minnesota, before & during the time I worked there) going through thousands trying to guess which one is worth the effort... you have to, there was literally thousands waiting to be discarded. I just can't process the thought of what didn't get saved!
@9C Lol I remember and the lines for gas were horrid! This song is still relevant today, isn't that just ironic! Thanks for listening, peace

I remember hearing this song on the radio as I was getting ready for work. Started dancin' (twistin') as it was so appropriate -- the gasoline embargo (remember that, folks?) was in full swing! Ha ha. Fun memory!

Does anyone know if there is an older version to this song? They play it in The Henry Ford's "Car Culture" video. I'm 25 now and have been looking for it since I could use a computer. It's driving me crazy!
