Songs About The Wind, Vol. 2

Mmkay, so I accidentally lied. This isn't, in fact, merely a 2-part series. There's such an abundance of great Songs About The Wind that I can't bear to leave out so many good ones. So there will be a Vol. 3. But for now, enjoy these great tunes!  ~  JH



1)  Alela Diane & Wild Divine  ~  "The Wind"




2)  Zac Brown Band  ~  "The Wind"




3)  Linda Ronstadt  ~  "Hasten Down The Wind"

I was challenged by a friend to put together a set of Songs About Races, and since I'm always up for a  challenge, here it is. As usual, I got carried away with the number of songs I chose. But it turned out even better than I expected. I hope you will agree...and enjoy!  ~  JH
