WPU Soundtrack Album
Fooling around a few years ago, I compiled a We Picked Up soundtrack album, using 21 songs which are mostly named in the book (but some that aren’t) which help categorize where the guys were at in their travels, or songs to help explain their emotion or mental state. The lineup is: 1) “I Feel the Earth Move” by Carole King 2) “Indiana Wants Me” by R. Dean Taylor 3) “Nama” by the Rascals 4) “Questions 67 & 68″ by Chicago 5) “Signed, Sealed, Delivered I’m Yours” by Stevie Wonder 6) “Hello, Mary Lou” by Rick Nelson 7) “Navajo Gift Dance Song” by Traditional Native Voices 8) “Strangers In the Night” by Frank Sinatra 9) Theme From “Bonanza” 10) “Do You Know What I Mean” by Lee Michaels 11) “I Left My Heart in San Francisco” by Tony Bennett 12) “Do You Know the Way to San Jose” by Dionne Warwick 13) “Surfer Girl” (vocals only version) by the Beach Boys 14) “I’ve Got Enough Heartache” by Three Dog Night 15) “99 Miles From L.A.” by Art Garfunkel 16) “Bring the Boys Home” by Freda Payne 17) “Maybe I’m Amazed” by Paul McCartney 18) “Wichita Lineman” by Glen Campbell 19) “Don’t Come Home A-Drinkin’ (With Loving on Your Mind)” by Loretta Lynn 20) “Honeymooners” theme song by Jackie Gleason, and 21) The Stars and Stripes Forever (Sousa) by the Grendadier Guards Band. It’s an eclectic mix, granted, but isn’t a trip across America the same?
