Right now Jethro Tull is in the car. It's a mix the Hubby made so I'm not sure which lp's he used.I don't really have a favorite.As long as it's loud I'm happy.

Most Bruce Springsteen songs are perfect for driving around on a perfect spring or summer day with the sunroof open or the top down, just crusing. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

Thunder Road is one example. Badlands is another great one.

Anything of the Sugababes is good driving music.
Their music contains good melodies and great bass

Right now I am listening to mostly 60's & 70's French Music! Great stuff! For example:

* Brigitte Bardot
* Gainsbourge

And stuff that sounds like French 60's & 70's music:

* April March
* Paris Combo - also does Greek, Japanese, Italian, etc.
* Pink Martini - also does Greek, Japanese, Italian, etc.

Just plain French music:

* Françoise Hardy
* Francoiz Breut
* France Gall
* Sunnyside Cafe Series (album)

Then I have some stuff that is weird/cool/spiffy:

* Ennio Morricone
* Bombay the Hard Way (album)
* Sh!tbirds (same as April March but a different name - she animated for Ren & STimpy under the name Elinore Blake)
* Kill Bill soundtracks
* William Shatners "Has Been"
* Cashier Escape Route

Anyone ever heard of røyksopp?

Well ... you get the idea. I love French music. It sounds GREAT in Zoomer. If anyone ever gets the chance ... definatly check this groups out. Great stuff!

I have a CD by Jon Auer with a Gainsbourge cover..."Bonnie and Clyde" i believe.
I 'm not sure i'd drive to the entire Kill Bill, and Bill Shatner...i have it, and like it, but doesn't get me happy driving.

i've heard of Røyksopp, but i don't know a thing about them. Enlighten us.

Default Johnny A rocks

Our favorite "road disc" is Johnny A's "Sometime Tuesday Morning". It's all instrumental, a jazzy rock guitar trio. The songs are the kind that make you want to fill up the tank and just go somewhere.
