Along with his blistering guitar attack, he’s got one of those gritty, rough-hewn vocal deliveries that just begs for bluesy material such as this. This set leads off with the title cut, a stone cold ode to the open road, where “I feel free.” “Rocket” is another hot rocker that pays tribute to those machines of “American steel” and “Detroit wheels.” Brad breaks off a cool slide solo at the bridge on this one.
