Greatest biker Album ever

My dad used to build choppers way back in the early 70's and this album was playing constantly in the shop. I've always loved these tunes, and never seem to tire of hearing them no matter how many times I hear them.

Am enjoying the CD. Wish it had the song "Baby Ruth" on it.

I am enjoying the CD.  I was sorta hoping but really knew that it would not contain the song "Baby Ruth" which was the flip side of B.B.Gunn on the single.  CD Baby got the CD to me very quickly.
