John Oates with The Good Road Band — “Arkansas” Official Video
Not the River Valley, but still pretty cool!
“I was invited to go to Wilson, Arkansas,” says Oates, who lives four hours away in Nashville, “and was inspired by the landscape where the cotton fields line the Mississippi River shore. My entire musical life has been influenced by the music that has flowed up that river from New Orleans through the Delta, and has had such an important sonic and cultural impact on America. It occurred to me that Arkansas was the last rural stop on the musical journey northward. I wanted both the song and video to reflect that.”
