Ventura Highway by America ~ Song Review

Ventura Highway is the opening track to the band’s second studio album; Homecoming. It is the first song I knowingly listened to by the band and was instantly captivated by the beautiful, unforgettable acoustic guitar lick and the soft, harmonising vocals.

If I can create a complex, vivid story and/or environment for a song in my mind’s eye, I know I have found a good song. When listening to Ventura Highway, I’m transported to a warm 70s summer’s evening. Something I love about this song is that I feel it’s a perfect ‘driving’ song. I can picture myself sat in an open topped car, feeling a warm, but gentle breeze as I drive along an empty road, into the sunset.

The 3 acoustic guitars are largely to thank for creating such a warmth to the song. In a live performance from 1975, guitarist Dan Peek is seen playing a twelve string which explains the beauty of the ‘full’ sound of the guitars. Dewey Bunnell’s soft vocals compliment the song perfectly, gliding beautifully over and in between Gerry Beckley and Peek’s harmonising leaping licks. Of course, the 3 way harmonies cannot be forgotten. It’s as if they’re the final piece to the puzzle; ending in an utterly timeless, unforgettable piece of music which I find myself returning to often.

Album Number Nineteen “America” is their eponymous debut studio album, released in 1971. It was initially released without "A Horse with No Name", which was released as a single in late 1971. When #ahorsewithnoname " became a worldwide hit in early 1972, the album was re-released with that track. My copy is a #warnerbrosrecords rerelease of that 1972 issue - BS 2576. The album went to No. 1 on the Billboard album chart in the United States and stayed there for five weeks. It produced two hit singles; "A Horse with No Name" spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard singles chart in 1972 (it peaked at No. 3 on the Adult Contemporary chart), and "I Need You" hit No. 9 on the Billboard singles chart and No. 7 on the AC chart. Several other songs received radio airplay on FM stations playing album tracks, including "Sandman" (long-rumored to be about the United States Navy VQ-2 air squadron formerly based in Rota, Spain)[citation needed] and "Three Roses". #rockandroll #softrock #theseventies #americatheband #deweybunnell #gerrybeckley #danpeek https://www.instagram.com/p/COvNO7hLyvO/?igshid=5sce5ledjny6

Letra

On the first part of the journey I was looking at all the life There were plants and birds and rocks and things There was sand and hills and rings The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz And the sky with no clouds The heat was hot and the ground was dry But the air was full of sound

I've been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can remember your name 'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain La, la

After two days in the desert sun My skin began to turn red After three days in the desert fun I was looking at a river bed And the story it told of a river that flowed Made me sad to think it was dead

You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can remember your name 'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain La, la

After nine days I let the horse run free 'Cause the desert had turned to sea There were plants and birds and rocks and things there was sand and hills and rings The ocean is a desert with it's life underground And a perfect disguise above Under the cities lies a heart made of ground But the humans will give no love

You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can remember your name 'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain La, la
