A commercial for the Suzuki XL-7 is currently running in the US (at least here int he Pacific Northwest) that features the song "Route 66". Anyone know who does this version? Thanks!

I think that version is sung by "Asleep at the Wheel" I dunno which albun tho, it might be on songs of route 66

A friend asked if I knew about who recorded the version of Route 66 in a (he thinks) new Chevy commercial. I looked back at the posts and saw a reference to a Suzuki commercial but I doubt that he could mix up those two companies.

Anyone seen this one? I have not, so I'm afraid I can't provide more details.

Thanks!

UPDATE:

It was the Suzuki commercial. My bad.

In the immortal words of Emily Litella: Never Mind.

The new Subaru TV spot shows the car (a Forester?) in a variety of out west scenes dominated by highway motels, drive-ins, etc with large Subaru specific signs. The music is an arrangment of Rt. 66 by ? Anybody know this particular group and/or arrangment? Thanks.

I've merged these topics because there were so many different makes/models mentioned.

The steel guitar version of "Route 66" used in the Suzuki commerical is by Asleep at the Wheel off their album The Very Best of Asleep at the Wheel.

No problem.

This version of Route 66 really rocks! I'm a jazz enthusiast, and never considered even listening to another version of Route 66. But, to my pleasant surprise, I really think I like this version as much as Nat King Cole's version. Does anyone know the name of the album, or perhaps download site (heaven forbid I suggest a free download site.).
