From the album O'Keefe (1972)
“The Road” by Danny O'Keefe appears on 1 radio countdown from 1 station in 2010. It was first released in 1972 on the album O'Keefe. Its best result is #787 on the WXPN 885 Ultimate Road Trip Songs (2010).
"The Road" is Danny O'Keefe's own, words and music, and it sits on O'Keefe, the singer-songwriter's 1972 album, which came out that August. The album led with the single "Good Time Charlie's Got the Blues", a fresh recording of a song he had first cut for his self-titled debut two years earlier, and it went to number nine on the Hot 100 and drew covers from all over.
"The Road" had an afterlife of its own when Jackson Browne recorded it for his album Running on Empty, and the Wounded Bird label brought O'Keefe back into print in 2006.
