Bertie Fridays #5: Burt The Bandit

Another of Bertie the dog's favourite Burties this week... we like nothing better than to chill out and watch Smokey & The Bandit together...

James Dean in a Mercury '49
Junior Johnson's runnin' in the woods of Caroline
Even Burt Reynolds in a black Trans Am
I'm gonna meet 'em down at the Cadillac ranch

Bruce Springsteen - Cadillac Ranch

"But wait a second, Rol," I hear you cry. "Burt Reynolds was an actor... and this is a music blog!"

Well, clearly you've forgotten Burt's 1973 country album, Ask Me What I Am...

Burt Reynolds - She's Taken A Gentle Lover

Not to mention this "classic" single from the soundtrack of 1980's Smokey & The Bandit 2...


Well, Bertie seems to like it...

Next week's Bertie went to school in hand-washed shirts with neatly ordered hair...

  1. The first Burt Reynolds track She's Taken A Gentle Lover was so bad I've sought out another track from the album, I Didn't Shake The World Today. It's not one I recommend to your readers

  2. I am trying to decide whether you or Bertie have the most luxuriant hair. It is a close run thing. I'm jealous of both of you.

  3. Hair envy from these quarters too.

  4. Think you've found the elixir of youth.
