James63, thanks for the STP love, I hope the new alumb is as good as No 4 was, I don't think we can hope for another Core or Purple, but No 4 would be good. |
I agree with Buff

Can't go wrong with The White Stripes.... ;) |
When we drive and it gets late we usually play these to help keep us awake...loud and we know all the words to all the songs(or at least we THINK we do):
Faith No More-The Real Think Jane's Addiction-Nothing Shocking Pixies-Surfer Rosa Fugazi-13 Songs Built To Spill-Keep It Like A Secret Misfits-Any and all of it but The Collection will do in a pinch |
R.E.O. -- T.W.O. Spooky Tooth -- You Broke My Heart So I Busted Your Jaw |

The MULE baby! Take it from a horse,
"Holy Haunted House" second disc which is the entire Zeppelin Houses of the Holy album is a classic.
Green Day - Dookie
Aerosmith - Toys in the Attic
George Thorogood - Move it on over
Puddle of Mudd - Come Clean
That should get a few more miles under your belt. Every year I drive back from Washington state to the Black Hills of South Dakota. I have probably made the trip 20 times and every time the music prep is essential. I like to start burning discs about a month in advance. I even had a couple of buddies rip discs for me. We agreed to kept them unplayed until I was out on the road. It became a tradition for about 6-7 years. I would hold out as long as I could ... then somewhere in Wyoming I would break down and slam my buddy Paul's mix in. It was always hard driving rock ... sure beat Red Bull and coffee. Good stuff. Hard rock and road miles are a good mix ... so many good memories.
I could easily list 40 CD's ...

at least as i'd define hard rock, here's my list: 1. rolling stones--sticky fingers 2. the clash--first album 3. cheap trick--first album 4. new york dolls 5. jimi hendrix--are you experienced obviously, genre lines get blurry, but all of the above will get you from houston to san antonio. |
Deep Purple "Machine Head" with Highway Star being the best driving song,"Burn" and "Perfect Strangers".
Led Zep I and "Physical Graffiti". |
Chicago Transit Authority, their first Moe - No Doy |
How about "Jimmy Page and the Black Crows Live at the Creek." |
LED ZEPPELIN "Latter Days"Vol.2
|
Mapman, great call on Deep Purple, I'm putting Machine Head on the turntable as soon as I stop typing. |
Tonykay,
I put The Who, and Who's Next in another category, more pure rock, along with the Rolling Stones, the Beatles, U2, Aerosmith, and many more.
But, great call BTW, I would consider Who's Next as one of my top 5 all time favorite albums of any type! What a great album! Has there ever been a better song for a finale than "Won't get Fooled Again"?? |
Our ideas of "Hard Rock" may be different but how can you omit "Who's Next" with Bargain, Won't Get Fooled Again and Baba O'Reilly. Come on, now that's rock n'roll! |
Whhops, sorry you want albums:
Machine Head - Deep Purple Brothers And Sisters - The Allman Brothers Heyday - The Church Metallica - Metallica Best of the Outlaws - The Outlaws |
Jeff Beck, blow by blow UFO- force it Dream Theater- Train of thought Kings X- ear candy |
Highway Star - Deep Purple Call Me the Breeze - Lynyrd Skynrd Rambling Man - Allman Brothers Enter Sandman - Metallica Myrrh - The Church |
TP,
I don't have that record, thanks for the suggestion, I'm ordering it right now!! |
Gov't Mule "High And Mighty" gets me pretty revved up!! |
