Boz, he's looking for songs from the 60's and 70's.

I understand that is 30 years before your time, but please try harder

 

[Bozi]

just giving him ideas for more contemporary stuff, that is also great to drive to...


hold onto yourself-Nick cave and the Bad Seeds

Star spangled banner on guitar - Jimi hendrix

If im putting skynryd on the list its gonna be 'That Smell', 'Needle and Spoon' or 'Simple Man'. I may have 2 steppenwolf songs on the list....not a fan of hendrix's performance of that. And i will look up that CCR song, but their imo is Lookin' Out My Backdoor or Bad Moon.

Highway Star for sure! 'IM A HIGHWAY...STAR' Also i cant believe i forgot

Here are some others

Truckin'- Grateful Dead

Rockin' down the Highway- Doobie Brothers

All right Now- Free

Tumbling Dice- Rolling Stones

Hurricane- Bob Dylan

Have you heard Wishing Well by Free? Better song imo, iv never listening to grateful dead, will youtube that song in a min. Also thinking about 'Can't You Heard Me Knocking' by the stones, or do you recon tumbling dice is better?

250 mile high city-Ocean Colour Scene

love spreads-The Stone Roses

go with the flow-Queens of the Stone Age

lets build a home-The White Stripes

I was thinking about some QUOTSA but was more leaning towards A Song For The Dead, sick driving song. Im not a fan of stone roses and i dont think The White Stripes will hit the tone of the trip.

David Hasselhoff - Jump in my car

NEIN, I prefer the original.

 

[KB824]

Wishing well is from the 80's I think.

I would prefer "Tumbling Dice", if only for the chorus, plus with the top down, more people recognize that song

Gotta have Freebird on there

Some good stuff. But I would totally punk this stuff up a little...

Here's a few home-grown products, often overlooked, I would definitely consider for my equivalent list:

The Ramones - "California Sun"

Cheap Trick - "California Man"

(for out West )

The Cars - "Just What I Needed"

The Dictators - "Faster and Louder"

Van Halen - "Runnin' With the Devil" (this one goes out to Sergio )

The Suicide Commandos - "Attacking the Beat"

Ted Nugent - "Cat Scratch Fever"

Aerosmith - "Back In The Saddle"

Kiss - "Detroit Rock City"

ZZ Top - "Heard It On the X" and "Jesus Just Left Chicago"

Montrose - "Rock Candy"

Blue Oyster Cult - "Cities on Flame with Rock and Roll"

Alice Cooper - "Under My Wheels"

Mountain - "Mississippi Queen" (definitely see the 1971 movie Vanishing Point before you go)

The Doors - "Backdoor Man"

Jimi Hendrix - "Love or Confusion"

Velvet Underground - "I'm Waiting for the Man"

Iggy & the Stooges - "Gimme Danger" and "Search and Destroy"

Bob Dylan - "Obviously 5 Believers"
