What is your goto driving music.
Wondering what people goto for a fun romp in their P-car. I have been enjoying Death by Diamonds and Pearls.... I first heard in used in a lite speed Porsche video and it just stuck as a Porsche anthem for me.
|
I’ve been on an ELO kick lately. It came outta nowhere.
|
Rush, any song.
|
Beatles White
Tom Waits Saturday night Pink Floyd dark Side of the moon SRV Texas Flood |
Quality headers.

I took the radio out of my 930.
The exhaust was all I needed. |
Steve Earle, Guitar Town.
|
Creedence
|
Whatever is in my iPod. (Yes an iPod.). Though I do feel that these four songs out of my playlist are great driving songs:
This Charming Man - The Smiths Don't Stop Me Now - Queen I Think I'm Paranoid - Garbage (maybe because it was in the first Gran Turismo) I suppose the most cliche is Highway Star by Deep Purple. |

Driving... as in the type that requires deep concentration... no music.
Midrange or just going point A to B, Mitch Ryder and The Detroit Wheels, Creedence, ZZTop, Stones, Bruce Hornsby, and anything that qualifies as uptempo blues works well for me. Once upon a time, I used to enjoy this as I was going up the onramp on the way outta town... <iframe width="854" height="480" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/hBP15lRprPs" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen></iframe> |

Currently listening to Pink Floyd "Momentary Lapse of Reason", and usually have Rush, Deep Purple, and Led Zeppelin in the car with me as well.
|
Anything that pops up on my Pandora Led Zeppelin channel. The other day I was cruising around jamming to Ted Nugent Stranglehold. I never really listened to music in my 911 because I hated the sound system, then I added an under the seat sub and love listening to it.
|
I have a blend of rock n roll, and jazz. I'm not into any 80s music. Radio: I'm a loyal WXRT listener from the time they went on the air in the early 70s. Stored music: I have several thumb drives.

a quick set, you'll get the idea

In the Porsche I don't.
|
Wide variety but if I happened to be say, 'driving with enthusiasm', the tunes were off. Nowadays I'm apt to be listening to the news in my truck more than music. Spotify did come to the rescue.

I listen to the Pandora Led Zeppelin channel at home.....but too many loud commercials. |
Not a 'fun romp' or in a Porsche... I'm a blues/rock guy but been listening to classical music radio on my daily commute... keeps me from killing people.
|
Meatloaf!
|
Ac/dc.
|
|
Judas Priest
Especially Turbo Lover, Breaking The Law |

Depending on so many thing Fuel by Metallica usually starts the trip off https://youtu.be/PvF9PAxe5Ng |
Metal.
German Speed Metal to be exact. |
Nothing...
The engine sound and feel make it happen for me :) |
ZZ Top and AC/DC
|
What no rap? Must be a bunch of old white guys. HAHAHA.
I listen to something like nwa, some kind of hardcore rap. BUT...i also like Metallica at times I think it just depends on the mood and mindset at the time. Sorry i brought RAP into the old timer thread. Lol Steve |
Just good rock & roll. Steppenwolf, early J. Geils, creedance. Just no music about pickup-trucks,
grandaddys farm. No Nashville, no hair band stuff, no rap about *****es and hoes. Some music is great when you are by yourself in your sports car. My favorite is a band you all have never heard of. A 1969 recording called "Stink" by McKenna, Mendolson & Mainline. Perfect for me at my age, carvin' up the twisties. |
George Thorogood - One bourbon, bad to the bone
Queen - I'm in love with my car Acdc- back in black Who - my wife Foreigner -Blue Monday Rush- Spirit of the radio Ozzy - crazy train Fleetwood Mac - Oh well Van Halen - Panama, Drop Dead Legs Zztop - Nationwide Doors - Waiting for the sun Yello- Oh Yeah! Sheryl Crow-Steve McQueen Led Zeppelin - No body's fault but mine, when the levee breaks Deep purple - child in time Black Sabbath - sweat leaf Pink Floyd - learning to fly Rollin Stones - ventilator blues, Can you hear me knocking Joe Walsh - life's been good, rocky mountain way Bob Seger - Her Strut |
I was in high school in the early 80s, so for road trips Def Leppard's "High n Dry" or "Pyromania" or AC/DC.
|
Supercharged 3.2.
|
Willy, Waylon and the boys...
|
Into the Air tonight is a sure fire winner
One vision by Queen And If I like it, I do it by Jamiroquai is bound to be a poor excuse for the high speed ticket defense in front of the Judge... |
I make playlists that are generally heavy in the bottom end, like Road to Hell, or Ventilator Blues, but I like to be surprised, too, so I'll throw Unchained Melody or Solitary Man into the mix, just in case it happens to be exactly right. It happens more frequently than you might think, especially at night. I also make sure that I have more than enough music. in case I have to skip quickly thru 10 songs that don't fit the mood.
This is two screenshots from a 300 song playlist I put together at the beginning of summer for a 850 mile roadtrip. I've been listening to this quite a bit since then and it's time to start putting something new together for a trip I've planned for November. (And, just to be sure, I've still got a lot of windshield time where there is nothing but engine and tires and the wind around the A pillars for the soundtrack) http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1538250631.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1538250646.jpg |
BECK.
Like the Speedster. Brilliant artist. Great driving music: Girl, Black Tambourine, Devil's Haircut, and, of course, Where It's At. |
