VARIOUS ARTISTS "Eighteen Wheelers: Twisted Tales from the Truck Stops" LP (Gatefold)

German pressing of this 2016 LP compiled by Mark Lee Allen. Cool artwork by Olaf Jens and liner notes by Mack Stevens & Avery Powell . Limited to 500 copies. Gathered here are some of the toughest cuts from the trucking genre, originally from the '60s and early-mid '70s. These tracks were taken from small label 45s cut by blue collar men who drove an 18 wheeler by day and picked up a guitar on the weekend to tell stories of highway mayhem, double clutchin', gear bustin' and coffee drinking.
