Well everyone did a great job of putting together this great CD. I've listen to it many time and right now it is #4 in my Mark VII CD Changer. I hope some LvC members have enjoyed it also!

Randeaux Thanks again for the CD you sent me this Holiday Season - Love the Ramones!!! Rock Rock Rock 'n Roll High School!! Got to love it!!! :yourock:

Now it's time for the next Complication CD that I'd like to make. Last night while driving back from my childhood home I thought about what I would like next, and would need :V members help in making.

We have Driving tunes which I called LvC's Greatest Hist listed below. What I want now is - Tunes that deal with Driving or Cars. - I know the Beach Boy's have a ton of Car tunes along with BTO and others. So what are the best songs that deal with Cars, Driving, or things you can do in Cars! :steering

I will start with a classic (and every High School kids favorite activity :gr_devil: )

Paradise by the Dashboard Lights by Meat Loaf

So I will need about 15 + tunes to make this complication! Feel free to add to the list!

You Must Know I'm Going To Say This One: CARS by Gary Neuman!
(You're welcome for the CD, I knew you were giong to love it!)
and My FAVE car song of ALL TIME: Buzzbomb by the DEAD KENNEDYS!
"Buzzbomb,Buzzbomb, tape up loud......Lawrence Welk Cranked up to 10!" ;)
Dereck's selection is classic too, one more that's a classic is "Lord,Mr. Ford" by Jerry Reed.(they'd go great back-to-back!)
 
A band named "All" did an awesome remake of Hot Rod Lincoln. They are basically the Descendents with a different singer if you know who they are.
 
Hit the Road Jack - Ray Charles

On The Road Again - Willie Nelson

Hot Rod Hearts - Robbie DuPree

Stick Shift - The Duals
 
There was a song years ago called "Beep Beep".
I don't recall who did it .
It was about a race between a nash rambler and a caddy.

That song rocks! I've wondered for years who sang that song! Don't hear too often anymore.
 
I can't remember who sang the song right now (and will kick myself in the HEINA for it,) What about Highway Star? "Nobody's gonna get my car......."(Deep Purple?)
(BTW: Beep-Beep is a MUST! ) "While ridin'in my CAD-IH-LACK ......"
If for the Caddy reference only!
In fact, start off the cd with H.R. Lincoln then Beep-Beep as kind of a Linc-Cad themed intro. ( I think it'd be KEWL!)
One Last Car Song: My Hooptie By Sir-Mix-A-Lot!
