East Hazel Crest, IL, USA

Blues

Liner notes

A gritty, soulful blues track about the working-class heart of East Hazel Crest, where the elevated Illinois Central Railroad tracks divide the quiet streets from the bustling world outside. The lyrics tell the story of generations of rail yard workers who built their lives in this tiny, four-hundred-acre village, finding peace in the Bremerton Woods subdivision. A wailing harmonica and steady, chugging rhythm guitar echo the sound of the Metra trains rolling past the Calumet station, celebrating the pride of 'the best little village in Illinois.'
