What's The Connection? Roller Coasters 2

Go back a week or so and find part one of this connection of Coasters. The first 22 tracks had some good ones, including the Ohio Players, This time I include that same song, but covered by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. A great version. I also have Robert Plant, Jonathan Richman, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, REO Speewagon as well as Neal Morse and Spyro Gyra among the bands today. A different feel today than the last volume, but that's good.

What's The Connection? Roller Coasters 1

There were a lot of ups and downs and a few loop the loops making this connection about coasters. Roller Coasters. I always liked riding them, but never really looked to see how many songs there were about them. Makes sense if you think about it. It can be a metaphor or just about the thrill of the ride itself. It wasn't a steep drop to come up with these songs. The first song that came to mind was the Ohio Players and soon after I thought of the 13th Floor Elevators. And after that they just kept coming. Part two will follow soon after this one. I have around 50 tracks I could use already. Tell me about your best roller coaster ride in the comments. Or your worst one...
