This is a special music video. Not only does it contain audio of live-in-concert performance of “Route 66” by Asleep At the Wheel during the 1970s, but it’s interspersed with footage of Route 66 from a 1980s news report and vintage photos of the band.
You’ll even spot the U-Drop Inn in Shamrock, Texas, a couple of decades before its restoration.

Asleep At the Wheel still performs “Route 66” at every show.
Thank you, Ron. That’s a lovely way to get the day started–Ray Benson, Asleep at the Wheel, and Route 66!
Love Ray Benson and Asleep At the Wheel! They have one of the best versions of Get Your Kicks on Route 66 I’ve ever heard. Loved the video too!
