Seven Bridges Road

"Seven Bridges Road" is a song written by American musician Steve Young, recorded in 1969 for his ''Rock Salt & Nails'' album. It has since been covered by many artists, the best-known version being a five-part harmony arrangement by English musician Iain Matthews recorded by the American rock band the Eagles in 1980.
==Background==
Steve Young was inspired to eventually write "Seven Bridges Road" during a sojourn in Montgomery, Alabama in the early 1960s: according to Young "a group of friends...showed me () road () led out of town...after you had crossed seven bridges you found yourself out in the country on a dirt road. Spanish moss hung in the trees and there were old farms with old fences and graveyards and churches and streams. A high bank dirt road with trees. It seemed like a Disney fantasy at times. People went there to park or get stoned or just to get away from it all. I thought my friends had made up the name 'Seven Bridges Road'. I found out later that it had been called by that name for over a hundred years."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Interview: Steve Young )
Woodley Road, a rural road running south from the outskirts of Montgomery which features seven bridges, is generally identified as the song's locale, although Young himself has never evidently endorsed this identification. In his book My Heart Is in the Earth: true Stories of Alabama & Mexico (Red River Publishing/ 2001) Alabaman journalist Wayne Greenhaw relates that on a Sunday in spring Greenhaw and Steve Young accompanied by Jimmy Evans (de) drove down Woodley Road to Orion for a guitar jam session with bluesman C. P. Austin, and that it was on the return trip up Woodley Road that Young began the composition of "Seven Bridges Road".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=My Heart Is in the Earth: an interview with author Wayne Greenhaw by Joyce Dixon )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=My Heart Is in the Earth: true stories of Alabama & Mexico by Wayne Greenhaw/ review by Joyce Dixon )
