The Works of C.W. McCall
The collected works of C.W. McCall can be classified — that’s a joke, son — into five groups:
The “Original Six” albums that were released between 1974 and 1980, and contain the bulk of his recorded output: Wolf Creek Pass, Black Bear Road, Wilderness, Rubber Duck, Roses For Mama, and C.W. McCall & Co.
The “Digital” recordings of the 1990 “comeback” album The Real McCall: An American Storyteller and the 2003 collaboration with Mannheim Steamroller, American Spirit.
The “Retreads”, or “greatest hits” compilations: C.W. McCall’s Greatest Hits, The Best Of C.W. McCall, The Legendary C.W. McCall, and Four Wheel Cowboy.
The “Soundtrack” albums of Music From The Motion Picture CONVOY and the multi-media presentation San Juan Odyssey.
And last, the Singles: 45 RPM releases of songs from the “Original Six” albums, and other songs.
C.W. McCall songs have been covered, and parodied, by many artists. In the “Passing Lane” you’ll find other albums on which C.W.’s original songs have appeared, albums with covers of C.W.’s songs by other artists, parodies of C.W.’s songs, and other funny trucking songs.
