I know its been done before but being as there are new new members here on NAM....What do you consider the ultimate driving song or album?

My opinion is Metallica-Master of Puppets for the old school days or Linkin Park for those modern days.

That's easy. "The Distance," by Cake. Or the 1812, by Tchaikovsky.

The best song bar none is under the hood of whatever you are driving.
If you have time to listen to music then you are riding, not driving. Nothing
can beat a sack full of Webbers and an open exhaust.

Motor on.

Best driving album: anything by Jethro Tull, such as Aqualung or The Broadsword and the Beast.
Best song: Hot Rod Lincoln, and I'll be darned if I know who sings it.
