Glory Days (The Boss) and Down on the Corner (CCR) for my range walkup takes me back to a time when I could turn with out stiffness. Actually helps.

Althea by the Grateful Dead- I’ve actually hummed this to myself to focus on a relaxed tempo, also gets bonus points for being Al Franken’s favorite Dead song.


Great selection.  Which version, original, Russo, Co's?  I'd have to go w Russo, he took it to another level.  There would be no Co without Althea, due it being Mayors favorite one too.

The chorus from "The Gambler".

Which, btw, was written by a high school classmate and close friend, Don Schlitz, who goes into the Country Music HoF next month.  He's had an incredible career, and now in his semi-retirement has become something of a golf addict.

Sorry for the name drop (not really!) but "time enough for counting when the dealings done" is the ONLY way to play sports to the best of your ability.

Off topic...

Mr. Schlitz is co-writer of six songs in my iTunes library.  I just checked.

With respect to "Althea", Mr. Franken singled out the "Go To Nassau" performance from 1980 is his favorite n the recent Netflix documentary.  And since he is so passionate about it, that's probably the right one.

Chopin's "Revolutionary" etude, op. 10, no, 12.   Don't laugh -- the first few bars are epic.

John,
Go to Don's website and look at his complete list of songs if you haven't already.  Incredible career, and you might even have more than you realize if you are country music listener.

I would go with "Cocky" by Kid Rock but only the instrumental at the beginning.  I would not want the lyrics, only the concept.
