Is it a book? or part of a book?

Anyway...Exodus - Bob Marley

[the_idiotb_stardson]

The Dubliners - Finnegan's Wake - James Joyce
The Nashville ***** and John D Loudermilk - Tobacco Road - Erskine Caldwell

Not being pedantic Redhouse but I think regarding Finnegan's wake, the book took its title from the song and not vice-versa.

I will allow it on this occasion though.
