Soft Rock classics for a playlist
Mrs. Angus and I are planning a relatively short road trip later this month. We are looking for soft rock songs from the 70's & 80's for our travel playlist. Please make your suggestions!

As an example, here are some we already have:

Ambrosia, Biggest part of me

Little River Band, Cool Change

Bread, Make it with you

Exile, Kiss you all over

Sammy Johns, Chevy Van

Consider Spotify. I enjoy their playlists on my iPhone. I can pass this to my pickup via Carplay or my car with a cable connection.

You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People again must learn to work, instead of living on public assistance. ~ Cicero 55 BC
