Hey Guys,
I randomly came across this song a few weeks ago, and thought some of you might enjoy it as much as I do.
It's "40 Miles from Denver" by the Yonder Mountain String Band. The version I'm linking to is from a live concert recorded on 3/24/2002. It's song #12 and it can be freely downloaded from Archive.org here: http://www.archive.org/details/ymsb2002-03-24
The song references "an Appalachian Trail" although I don't think the song is about "the AT". Regardless, it reminds me of the AT and its a great song.
Note: everthing on archive.org is free and legal, so there's no copyright infringement issues. You can download thousands of live albums. I think this song is available on their ablum "Elevation". Also, the song is misnamed as "A Northern Song" if you try to listen to it in the flash viewer.
