+ 9 Black Sabbath tracks (well works for me when I'm on the bike anyhow
) Not too shabby
Shame about the hair though

Its friday afternoon and I'm making up some new CD's for the car (again) and as always I'm struggling to narrow them down to a CD
size.....
so whats your ideal driving CD track list ?
(say 10 tracks max)
[Edited on 26/3/10 by mcerd1]
i just have one song....
queens of the stonage, go with the flow...
Go with the flow is an awesome track,
steppenwolf - the pusher and born to be wild
Hendrix - if 6 was 9 and little wing
Animals - house of the rising sun
Mamas & Papas - California dreamin
Black Keys - Busted
Audioslave - Cochise
G&R - Sweet child o'mine
Fleetwood Mac - Green Manalisi
That said, I love all of those songs but I wouldn't say you can have a defintive list, thats why I like plugging my mp3 player in, thousands of
songs to choose from rather than how many I can fit onto a cd!
Highway Star - Deep Purple
+ 9 Black Sabbath tracks (well works for me when I'm on the bike anyhow )
Not too shabby
Shame about the hair though

Hell ain't a bad place to be - AC/DC
Knights of Cydonia - Muse
motorcycle - as the rush comes.
and some Wangan Midnight tracks like "This is my destiny" and "Total terror"
Depends. I like having two types of driving music.
Driving home (ie relaxing in the tintop after a shitty day) music
and
DRIVING (yee ha, sliding the 7 round corners) music
Big difference

I've got at least 3 at any time to suit different moods/times of day, AC/DC always make me feel better BUT you either have to have
'borrowed' every album or spent a lot of money buying then all to get the full effect
My 10 track AC/DC CD:
Dirty Deeds
For Those About To Rock
Hells Bells
Highway To Hell
Girls Got Rythm
Flick Of The Switch
Lets Get It Up
Touch Too Much
Problem Child
Back In Black
Guaranteed to make any car faster
to add two more to your list
G&R welcome to the jungle
Heavens basement - executioners day
anything by electro rave rangers *cough*
prodigy, pendulum, loads of tasty electro

to name a few anyway.......
Take a look at scootz's list, kick out the pearl jam and replace with something like sensor/silverfish and that's a pretty damn good list!
Beat and rythm can be important with driving music, especially if you drive at anything less than fully awake.
My current top ten for in the car
Joy Division-Disorder
The Beatles-Two of Us
Wings-Jet
The Who-Won't get fooled again
The Cure-In Between Days
Bruce Springsteen-Born to Run
Bowie-Young Americans
Franz Ferdinand-Ulysses
Glen Campbell-These Days
Fleetwood Mac-The Chain
on another note, Pornography by the cure is possible the worst album to drive to whether you like it or not, worse than Revolution 9 on repeat.

I despair... PJ rock - literally!
i dont really have specific driving cds, since i only listen to cds when driving. However, when driving home late after a 15 hour day, when the heads
a bit fried, i do like 'tales...' by amorphis and dance of death by Maiden. Great scream-along tracks!
thats said i had ecuador by sash on today

I downloaded the Gran Turismo soundtracks a few months ago, finding it hard to stay below the speed limit while they're on
