Try Chuck Berry's inmortal "Johnny B Good"

That's one of my favorite classic 1950's Rock n' Roll songs.

Perfect for motoring!

That was one of my favorite parts of BTTF #1

Michael J. Fox paid a nice homage to Chuck Berry on that scene. He even did the "Duck walk" that made it famous.

I want one!!!but I can't go to play with the Dragon...

CD sounds awesome...I'd love to get a copy but can't get to the Dragon...tough time of year for a teacher to miss 4-5 days

I would be willing to trade a copy of my "Made For Motoring" CD that I created to listen to on the drive home from picking up my MINI in April '03.
PM me an address if you want to swap and I'll send you mine back!

Here's the tracklist for my CD:

Sunshine Pig - Chris and Tad (from an early MINI ad)
Hot Rod Lincoln - Commander Cody
Roadrunner - The Modern Lovers
Brand New Cadillac - Clash
Crankshaft - Fiends
Devil In My Car - B-52's
Warm Leatherette - Grace Jones
5ive Gears In Reverse - Elvis Costello
Let's Buzz - The Paladins
Mustang Sally - Wilson Pickett
Route 66 - Rolling Stones
Born To Run - Bruce Springsteen
Middle Of The Road - The Pretenders
Rev It Up & Go - Stray Cats
Cadillac Cruisin' - Keith Joe **** & The Goners
Get Out Of My Way! - Mojo Nixon & Skid Roper
Behind The Wheel - Tailgators
I'm In Love With My Car - Queen
Cars - Gary Numan
Autobahn - Kraftwerk
Beep Beep - The Playmates

I almost always drive with my iPod set on shuffle for maximum randomness (anything from Mozart to the Cramps and you never know what's next...) but I also like a good mix disc. In fact when I started doing them they were mix tapes imagine...4-5 hours creating and recording the perfect mix from vinyl to cassette . I still play a lot of my old vinyl, but much prefer the digital stuff for playing dj...I've even been messing around with some software that lets me play back vinyl through the computer and convert the songs to mp3s

I wonder if there's enough interest around the board to set up a thread for swapping favorite "motoring mix" discs through the mail...anyone???

<<ive got 10 more slots open on CD 2, lets hear some more suggestions>>

If you're tooling down the highway at 80 or so and James Taylor's Traffic Jam comes on, I bet the next time you look you'll be over a hundred.

The others on my list you already have.

Rich-It should be noted that in my family when my son Nat and I leave the driveway for a trip to the track or MOT, Steppinwolf Born to Be Wild get's me in the mood and takes me to the highway. It should also be noted that Nat indulges me in only this one thing.

Some various artists such as:

ATB
Paul Oakenfold
Sasha
John Digweed

For a little harder edge Joe Satriani- "Surfing with the Alien". If you've never heard it give it a listen for you rock n roll guys. Great guitar work.

Just great cruising music to drive fast to.

No mix CD is complete without some Britney! I'd suggest Opps, Cinderella, Baby One More Time, Stronger, Before the Goodbye, Me Against The Music etc, etc.. Plus remixes!

Also ABBA is always a definate! BoA is a must as well. Some Laura Branigan won't hurt, especially the Self Control remixes.

Anything by NIN or harder Ministry. I find it very hard not to floor it to Ministry!
