"Racing in the Street"

"Racing in the Street"
Okay.....here comes one of my slightly tenuous links for 'Sight and Sound' :-)

To me it looks like the young lady on the bicycle is 'racing' the two peeps in the background to see who can be the first to reach the 'King's Arms' Public House :-)

Therefore, this links to the legendary "Racing in the Street" by Bruce Springsteen.

Now, I know I should use the original version by The Boss :-) But, quite simply, I absolutely love the version by Emmylou Harris from her 1982 "Last Date" album.
However, I have put in a second link to Bruce's original and awesome version :-))

Oh I remember this song. It's an interesting choice for Emmylou, but she does an excellent job of it. The whole band sounds wonderful. Of course I always have loved Bruce's rendition.

Nice photo and panning technique Roger! :)

Cheers very much, George. And, thank you for adding my photo to your faves. I hadn't really studied the detail in my shot :-) And, I certainly hadn't realised it is a 'Saracen' cycle :-)
