What are your favorite tunes for the road?
 
Being a BIG guy, I love to blast Peter Gabriels "BIG time" while I'm on the road. The song is really what I'm all about, as mista Gabriel says "I'm on my way I'm makin' it - BIG time - so much larger than life".

Meat Loaf - "Bat Out of Hell" CD - it has that great "Paradise by the Dashboard Light" song on it!

When some place tropical it has to be Jimmy Buffett.

Buffett - no doubter!

Holiday Road from National Lampoon's Vacation of course! Plus last year we passed through Winslow Arizona and stood on the corner, so the kid's favorite is Take it Easy by the Eagles.

Driving in U P Michigan, listening to Bob Seager "Roll Me Away".

It depends. Sometimes Tom Petty...or maybe Pink Floyd...sometimes it's fun to just scan the radio stations as you travel and see what comes up!

Won't Get Fooled Again, The Who
Start Me Up, Stones
Old Time Rock & Roll, Bob Seger
etc

Played LOUD, all guaranteed to get you speeding tickets if you're not careful, LOL.

Amelie if I feel French.
My sons old Heavy Metal ( yes I have been known to listen to Slayer) if I want to drive fast.
Carlos Santana
Carmina Burana (who knows what that is:)
Van Morrison
British Dance music (also good for fast driving)

Asleep at the Wheel's Rte 66, any hot smokin' jazz or blues during the day, some mellow, soulful Miles Davis or Billie Holliday for late night cruisin.

Austin May 23rd, 2003 04:27 AM

Van Morrison. Any time, any where.
