They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

Bobby Troup had an interesting life. He trained Black Marines during WWII. He composed "(Get Your Kicks on) Route 66" during and after a drive from Pennsylvania to California with his wife in their 1941 Buick, as he wanted to be a songwriter. He was an actor in guest roles in the 1950s and 1960s. He got a permanent gig on Emergency, along with his second wife, Julie London. Died in 1999 at age 80.

Trivia fact: Oklahoma had more miles of Route 66 than any other state. You'd think it would have been New Mexico or Arizona.

The "Father of Route 66" is Cyrus Stevens Avery. Born in Pennsylvania, he ended up in Tulsa, with several stops along the way.

The first recorded version of the song:

Gene Krupa is a big favorite of mine as well as Lional Hampton
