We followed the highways and backroads in search of the places where these songs were born, chasing the spirit of an America that had been immortalised in its music.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBut along the way, a question began to emerge: had this paradise ever truly existed, or was it always a paradise lost?
