mikeljgt500kr Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 I not only remember the Cream, I grew up with them on the AM radio listening in my '64 Dodge, and I was Jack Bruce's equivalent in our little local band that played gigs around the state. Well, sort of like Jack Bruce's equivalent.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2+2 Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 It most certainly depends on my mood. When I'm feeling nostalgic I'll put on the American Graffiti soundtrack. When I'm in a raucous mood, most anything from Reverend Horton Heat or Brian Setzer. Then, when I want some real country (not that Nashville crap) I'll crank out some Cash, Hank I/III, Waylon or Dale Watson. Horton Heats version of Cash song "Get Rythum" and also like "Galaxie 500" ZZ Top eliminator CD on ride to work ( call me crazy but "TV Dinner" the best) John Fogerty while cruising Interstate "Hot Rod Heart" Great lyrics for road trip Nirvana to sing along when riding alone. Queen to make passengers happy. Guns and Roses "Child of Mine" and Metalica's "Enter Sandman" once a year just to bring back that era Black eyed Peas 'Going to be a good night" or current top 40 when Grand Kids are in the car.. Creedance Clearwater Revival most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Husky44 Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 Lots of good stuff here. Definitely can't beat the Blues. Got a whole Blues Genre setting on my Zune. something like 800 songs: SRV, Clapton, Freddie King, Buddy Guy, Albert King, BB King, Jimmy Dawkins, Junior Wells, Albert King, Albert Collins, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker... Then there's my swing collection: Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Cherry Poppin Daddies, Brian Setzer... My new favorite though is Zeppelin: I'd been listening to my Zeppelin track when I had to take my boss to visit a site (he's Scottish). We're driving down a rural divided highway east of Fairbanks He happens to see "Led Zeppelin" on my Sync screen (I had the volume turned down). He says "you like Zeppelin?" I said "yeah." He reaches over, grabs the volume knob, and cranks it to ear-bleed levels as the Immigrant Song hits the bridge, grinning from ear to ear-so I dropped it into third, nailed it and we ROCKED it down the highway! Gotta love bosses like that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank S Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I recall that my very first 8 track tape was Cream's Disreali Gears with songs : Sunshine of Your Love, Strange Brew, SWLABR, Tales of Brave Ulysses !!!!!! Total Classic. I felt so on top of the world cruisin' in my '68 Camaro SS396 blasting this unbelievable album!!!!!!!!! I just recorded the CD onto my car's Audio disc. Do I remember jamming down the highway, 8-track blaring in my VW camper? Ayuh. Cream, Bob Dylan, and Bill Cosby kept me grinning and alert on too many race weekends to count.

Guest markham51 Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 I have always loved the Doors. For years I used "Riders on the Storm" to test out sterios in both cars and at home. If it couldn't handle the "detail" in this song...I wouldn't buy it. My all time fav however is "Born to be Wild" by Steppenwolf. You cant beat sitting behind the wheel of the SSnake...a warm summer breeze...the love of your life at your side...and someone wails..."Get your motor running" I'm also VERY partial to "Life is a Highway" by Tom Cochrane.

Tight lines Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 I like to listen to the sweet music the supercharger and exhaust make to be honest. But if I had to choose it would definitely be an 80's hair band. Maybe even a little Dire Straits "Money for nothing". Got to love the beginning of that song.
