Been There, Seen That

The motivation here came from Glen Campbell, who put out rather a lot of songs name-checking cities and places; I figured it wouldn’t be too hard to come up with a CD full without having to resort to, say, the Doors’ endless “L.A. Woman,” which would be a bit much. The cover is an old, out-of-date map of metropolitan Oklahoma City, overlaid with cutesy freeway signs made with Kurumi’s SignMaker. Bonus points if you can figure out the sequencing.
