This is a previously unreleased song, released on Slim's newest album, "Sittin' On 80: 80 Truckin' Classics". Very good song, hope you all enjoy! R.I.P. Slim Dusty!
@seaningram089 Thanks mate.. I already have it... it was an inquiry from another commenter... you are right - It's a great album... It looks like EMI is now trimming the Slim Dusty CD's list.... quite a few have been deleted...... it's a shame really.
@pyrofella Thanks for that. I was going through all the guitarists that I could remember playing with Slim and couldn't think of anyone who played quite like that. Completely forgot about Jeff Mercer.
@Zzub7 It is from the 4 CD set shown called "Sittin' on 80" I had search for it - it looks like it is no longer available. It's a pity - just about every truck song Slim ever sang is on this compilation. "Give me room" had ever been recorded before this set was released. They might re-issue it in the future..... Good Luck - Cheers
The truckers of America have given so much. People don't realize that if it weren't for truckers theres would be nothing at the mall,or walmart, or target, or anyother sort of building not to mension your own dam house!!! Its time America gave something back to the truckers of the U.S and Australia
I have been a driver for 20 years here in the States and I wish Americans had the respect for "truckies" that people in Oz do!
Bloody right
Wish it was still that way mate.
Great song , Macca played this last Sunday, I was in a truck heading north on the Bruce Highway, gave me goosebumps, Thanks Slim
Slim's best trucking song IMO .......... and he's had many great ones!
LOVE THIS RECORD.. I AM FORTUNATE TO HAVE THE "SITTIN ON 80" CD SET
im aussie i agree
To Deadly old Dusty.
Perfect song to listen to in a 1985 GMC S15 hauling scrap metal. I should make an AI cover of that.
I’m from Northern Ireland sounds the same as the men here back in the hay day of trucking in their v8 Scania reminds me of my dad in his 142

This was to be released on Slim's 1997 truck album, Makin' A Mile, but it did not make the final cut of tracks!
