Another song that comes to us by way of WXRT's Saturday Morning Flashback. WXRT (Chicago's Finest Rock) was revisiting 1977 on May 2nd.
1977 was the year that gave us the original Star Wars, Smokey and the Bandit, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, and more. Seattle Slew won the Kentucky Derby in May, and would win the Triple Crown.
This song is "The Passenger" by Iggy Pop from his 1977 album Lust for Life.
I'm actually more familiar with the cover by Siouxsie and the Banshees. While the cover isn't in their usual mode (Goth, Post Punk), it was the version I know and like.
