''Arlo Guthrie - City of New Orleans, Steve Goodman wrote it and I've seen him perform it on YouTube, but Guthrie's version is the best.''

I like Steve Goodman's better and saw him sing it live a few times. Arlo's had too much production, Steve's is just fun. But I'll bet Steve loved Arlo's song and probably got a bigger payday from it than anything else in his life.
Back then I was one a few hundred lucky people who got to see Arlo and Steve do a duet on ''City of New Orleans'' at a farm benefit out in western Massachusetts.
