Right now the six CDs I've lot loaded in the car are: 1. Nael Yaim - she's the song on the Apple Air Book commercial (good CD) 2. Rufus Wainwright - Want One - love him - great to sing to 3. Carla Bruni - former French model and wonderful singer - recently married Pres of France 4. Timbaland - well, do I HAVE to explain - turn up the music 5. Will I Am - same 6. Ingrid Michaelson - another "commercial" - the Old Navy Sweater song. Good CD. Rather mixed taste - love just about everything.
Radio: Almost exclusively CBC Radio 2. "Music and Company" in the morning, and "Disc Drive" in the afternoon. How Canadian, eh? CDs: Although my taste in music is varied (classical, rock, world, rap, jazz, blues), while driving, I listen mostly to classical. Nothing beats Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries" (the music playing in the "Apocalypse Now" AirCav scene) for cutting through the afternoon rush hour!
Just a partial list: Dianne Schuur: "Swingin' For Schuur" "Dianne Schuur and the Count Basie Orchestra" Maynard Ferguson: "Chameleon" "Live at Jimmies" "The One and Only Maynard Ferguson" "MF Horn" "MF Horn VI: Live at Ronnie's" The Manhattan Transfer: "The Offbeat of Avenues" "Vocalese" The Singers Unlimited: "Magic Voices" Buddy Rich: "The Roar of '74" "Class of '78" "Live at Ronnie Scott's" The Toshiko Akiyoshi / Lew Tabackin Big Band: "Road Time"
Clubbed To Death - Rob D from The Matrix movie in stealth / EV mode. The coolest feeling when rolling at low speed with this music.
Two from my iPod that are currently faves to drive to: Jesus Built My Hot Rod -- Ministry Electric Version -- The New Pornographers
I heard this on “American Idol†a few weeks ago – Pocket Full of Sunshine – bought the CD. Natasha Bedingfield has the prettiest voice I’ve heard in a long time! The last 25 seconds of “Angel†gives me goosebumps. She really “got pipes†as Randy would say… So right now it’s “Pocket Full of Sunshine†Dragonforce speed metal is awesome. Through the Fire and the Flames! Hendrix is a GOD!:hail::hail::hail::hail: Kiss – one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. Grateful Dead – the stuff with Jerry, not the new stuff so much, in fact I don’t even have a CD of the new stuff. Saw them in 1969 in Buffalo. The FIRST rock concert I had ever been allowed to go to. Allman Bros. – second concert I went to, also in Buffalo. Had floor tickets, center section, row 3. Yes, Dicky Betts has a red guitar…when you get that close, it was all stage sound back then. With the 2 drummers the stereo effects were amazing. Guy in WNY
The Mermen This is a very good instrumental band with over 80 live shows available for download at the internet archive. For a sample of their live show, look at this video. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSJs9b3-Cok"]YouTube - Mermen - Quest For Fear Jam[/ame] If you're interested in listening to an entire concert, I'd recommend this show from January of 2008 when the video above was shot.
Some of my old time favorites Ozzy Osbourne- Crazy Train Black Sabbath- Iron Man AC/DC- Shook me all night long Aerosmith- Dude looks like a lady What I have in the car now is a mix of so many things, South African hip hop Chris Brown Wyclef Jean Kanye West Corrine Bailey Rae All American Rejects Greenday Akon Carrie Underwood Bob Marley Avril Lavigne Creed Daughtry Dixie Chicks Rascal Flatts James Blunt James Taylor Natasha Bedingfield Madonna Enigma Justin Timberlake Tons of Reggae and Tons of African music Beatles Bee Gees Everything to me is driving music I love driving and I love my music, I listen to just about everything except classical, just can't get into that, although I love the Nutcracker CD.
Depends on the kind of driving I'm doing. For long hauls I like the Tannahill Weavers. If I need to relax, I like the soundtrack from March of the Penguins.
