 Topic: Suggestion wanted for CD compilations
Posted: December 09 2005 at 09:30 |
Please some recommendations of tunes about motor cars to fill approx 80 minutes of a burn, so far only have the following mind:
MGB GT: Richard Thompson
Red Barchetta: Rush
Driving In My Car: Madness
(White Car from a parallel thread...........)
('ello John Gotta New Motah: Alexis Sayle is marginal, but please not Tom Robinson)
And whilst you're pondering, how about the theme of bicycles:
Bike: Syd Barrett & Floyd
My White Bicycle : Tomorrow (and the Nazareth cover version)

Wheels of steel - Saxon.
You could have planes as well, then you could have 747 (Strangers in the night) from the same album.

You may have noticed that I got carried away a little there, and included some alternate means of transportation.

Of course, well said Greg. Ignore ranger, he is talking from his posterior as usual.
Mind you, I never really liked the Beach Boys early car and surfing stuff. Pet Sounds and Smile are just brilliant.
