Endless Skyways is Bobby Lee's third full album and second release on Tompkins Square. Returning to the full band sound of his debut, the name Endless Skyways is borrowed from a line in Woody Guthrie's This Land Is Your Land, one of the cornerstones of American music.

That song's mix of the terrestrial ("ribbons of highway") and celestial consciousness encapsulates Lee's brand of widescreen cosmic americana; a duality also evident in the album's split between deep-fried rural rock and ambient country.

Dusty boots but third eye open.
