I love this video! I'm from SoCal, and the 101 goes right through my hometown of Thousand Oaks, CA. Love the 101. And I love your great taste in music!
Great video and music (for the most part). I have driven that 101 stretch one time. On my way home from Palm Springs after a night of partying. Um, I was on my way home to San Jose. That ended up being the longest drive I've ever driven. Never ended and got home at 10 pm. But it was very scenic I must admit.
I'm using these videos as reference for our SoCal inspired Minecraft city build. I'm building out the highways and this is definitely giving me mad references for what the freeways look like at ground level. I've been to L.A. a few times and have been on these roads, but memory is nothing compared to seeing actual video you can start and stop. Thanks for posting this!

@@jamesgillis6759 US-101 is a great drive, I've yet to see it in Oregon and Washington, but there are longer routes, the ones going east-west for example like US-20 (the longest route in the US), US-30, US-40, US-50 and such.
as an armchair traveller from Australia i love watching driving videos of the los angeles area/s freeway/interstate system, there is something mesmerizing about so much traffic, great video keep them coming please.
I feel the same as Jim Black. Keep them coming Freeway Jim. It's like I'm traveling on the good 'ol West Coast. Quite Scenic also. After all, I'm stuck here in boring Connecticut. Ps, California is great.
Very awesome ride and this ride has made it's way onto my bucket list of freeways to ride! I love it! You have the coast, you have the mountains, you have it all- I want to one day ride the 101! Though, part of me knows I have been through the downtown LA parts of the 101 when I was there in 1990- I want to see the coast on this beautiful highway! Very awesome ride and a great soundtrack to go with it!
One thing I like about the freeways in the Los Angeles area is their consistency of naming them after the highway's destination or the area that the freeway occupies. There are the Ventura, Santa Monica, Riverside, Santa Ana, Pomona, San Diego, Harbor, Long Beach, Hollywood, Antelope Valley, San Gabriel River, Foothill, the original Pasadena Freeway, Artesia, etc. I know there are several that do not fit this criteria, but I think it is a great idea.
Thank you, that is the goal pretty much, to find music that "works", although some of it is not what I'd normally listen to on a consistent basis either, thanks for the comment.
You MUST re-do this one day if you can when the weather is nicer. Doesn't do Santa Barbara justice. Oh and thank you so much for all of these videos. This is the best channel I have found in a very very long time.
R.I.P. Herb Alpert!!! I love that song too; it puts me in a zone while driving. That marine layer wouldn't break for NOTHING. I love seeing the variety of scenery along the route. Kudos.
Thanks, Jim, you really made my Monday morning with this ride! While I watched this, I was thinking about how US-101 (mostly the Ventura Freeway part) was such an integral part of my daily life before I moved to Florida and how much better my life is without having to deal with it's traffic. I was also surprised, shocked really, to hear Dale Bozzio's voice in one of your videos but, I would have expected you to have used "Walking In LA" instead of "Destination Unknown".
+ca2fla Thank you! I tried to use "Walking in LA" in a couple earlier videos and it just didn't fit, at least not to my liking (and I do like the song), maybe another time I'll get the right footage for it. "Destination Unknown" has more of a flow and steady tempo to it so it was easier to use.
I was surprised also. Missing Persons is one of my favorite groups from my favorite genre. This video had great variety of genres that flowed nicely. I agree that all the genres back them were superior to the autotuned music of today. Thing is New Wave was really something new after the 70's. So I guess that means we won't be hearing a dubstep recording on one of your videos. Great scenery also. Looking forward to Frisco and the "bonus" video of the scenery between Santa Barbara and Frisco.
+Aspie-Autistic1957 Thanks...there's no bonus video between this video and SF, sorry, the next video starts near SFO on US-101...good points on the music, but no, I won't be using any dubstep :)
Alright first off great video as always. This video really made me home sick. I have been living in Huntsville Alabama for over 15 years now and haven't been back to California once since I moved away.You drove through my home town of Ventura on my birthday of June 14th...I think its time that I take a trip back out west and enjoy beautiful California.
1:55 I remember how there was no homeless people on the overpasses! It was already happening but not as bad as now! Today homeless people everywhere thanks to these corrupt politicians destroying what once a California dream!
Didn't you know that US Route 101 have the longest controlled access highway section in the United States Numbered Highway System? From Los Angeles to San Francisco for 434 miles. It's also a scenic highway too when you drove near the Pacific Ocean and the mountains of California. I'm glad AASHTO did that years ago.
+TCP Thank you and simple, road maps like the one in the intro, Rand McBally atlases go back to the 1930's. I don't really need a GPS although my car has one, I study maps before a trip..
yay - Missing Persons - saw them in the Valley in like 1983. I feel like I know every square inch of this route. I spend a loooootttt of time in my car.
+Freewayjim Liked the music & the video. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE SAN FRANSCISCO!!! I CAN'T WAIT FOR YOU TO GO OVER THAT NEW OAKLAND BRIDGE THAT PREVENTS EARTHUAKES!!! (The white bridge) Have a blessed day Freewayjim!
I enjoy every video you have, this is AWESOME. Are you planning on doing a video here in Houston soon? TX 99 (Grand Parkway) has a large portion completed. Still undeveloped but not for long.
Why was the Us 101/ California state route 2 never built between the Vermont avenue and Melrose street exits. The middle median on this section of US 101 between Vermont and Melrose is super wide. Was this wide median originally gonna be the location of the California state route 2/Us 101 interchange? I was just asking why the 101’s center median is so wide between Vermont and Melrose?
I see many of these are native Angelenos, or are bands that got started in LA; I like how you try to choose music from people who are from the area you showcase in the video. :)
Did you know The I-405/ US 101 interchange is the most congested interchange in the United States? Also I've been wondering, why is there a I-110 and I-710 in L.A. but no I-310 or I-510?
3-digit interstates that start with odd numbers are used for loops or bypasses... maybe there aren't any other freeways in the area that technically meet that criteria so those numbers weren't used.
Bbgunn325 Could be because most NS truck traffic would be diverted to I-5 the main designated truck route out of LA, while 101 is just an alt truck route
Hey, great work, Jim. A suggestion, for you... I know you put your song information in the video, but I think it would be neat if you put the title, artist and timestamp in the description so people can pull up a particular song they may of liked with the click of a button when you do these montages. :)
Great work! This section of US 101 is actually the freeway that I took for the most times during my college time (I went to UCSB and visited LA a lot). I noticed that when the video ends, you already passed downtown Santa Barbara. Did you take SR 117 and take a break in Isla Vista?
Did you have the famous Santa Maria bbq? I'm a vegetarian myself so I've never had tried it, but I hear it's really special and distinct from other bbq's.
I can't believe the first 101 miles of US Route 101 is all but a freeway. But that's not all. It's a scenic freeway in central to southern California for over 500 miles. However, there's a freeway gap in the streets of San Francisco to access the Golden Gate Bridge and I-80.

why do samll business owners need financial aid i find this interesting id like to know the answer to my question.
What does that have to do with this video? this isn't a general interest forum.

+Multiblue Blanket I wouldn't film it with that much traffic, that would make for a pointless, horrible video, and I have experienced it, just smart enough not to film it.

True LA, isn't it? Anyways, awesome video.
+Multiblue Blanket Thanks

+nacho8888 Thank you, the weather did not match it but it was considred, I used it here in 2013, same stretch, opposite direction. ua-cam.com/video/kw4DyQ0aVXg/v-deo.html

It looks really polluted, nice city though.
That's not pollution, that's the marine layer.
"Heart full of soul" Yardbirds original version is much better.
Yeah, nobosy says otherwise, I have reasons why I used this version.
