Here is a new, re-mixed version and JUST re-discovered SOLO version of the single, "The Last Riders On Route 66"..... fun tune. The SOLO version is the lead release of off Chet's new album, "Tunesmith"!

The song was inspired by Chet's Americana novel, "The Last Riders On Route 66", which is in it's 4th printing (2024) and available at Amazon.
