I just joined today, am picking up my "new" '83 G20 tomorrow and made myself a "Van Tunes" comp at work. You can download it off my blog if you want!

I like all music, but Hip Hop. I grew up with classic Rock, and face melting guitar solos and driving beats are what I need.
While there is certainly a good amount of music available, some of my favorite stuff, like Jimi Hendrix, and the Allmans, I'm bored of.
I've been trading some music with neighbors, and one of them Gave me a super obscure album from early '70's Africa. Zambia in Fact.

Upon my first listen, I was like "Holy effing poop!!, how did this gem go unknown for so long!!" That was over a year ago and it sent me on a sucessful quest for more music from Africa.
Thank You U tube, and mediafire and Shadoks records for preserving this.

Here is a Sampling of Some of the Best music you have never heard. Computer speakers cannot do justice to these recordings. If you like Guitar, it will have seratonin and norepenephrin seeping through the pores of your skull.

Share it only with the worthy!!

If you are as passionate about some other obscure group, please share it.

hmm, I can drive for hours with no music, just listening to the throaty roar of the ehaust and the hum of the tires on the pavement. Im not a techy so no sat radio or CD changers. When I do feel the need and the oldies station fades out I just search for the next one. As long as it isnt rap or new stuff, Im good with it. Usually its the kids or wife that complain.

I just picked up a live 2cd set of Stray Cats-Rumble in Brixton awhile back that I'm gonna listen to on the way to Springback and I have some Quiet Riot for the trip home.

I can't listen to certain music (metal) without driving like I'm in the Transporter or Crank, same thing with no radio, my exhaust had ruined my mileage, as I really like to hear it.

I'm a truck driver by trade, so I listen to a lot of old- school country music. Hank Williams, Merle Haggard, Willie and Waylon, you get the picture. All of the stuff that's required by federal law for truckers. I can listen to The Beatles all day, but I also love bands like Motorhead, Black Sabbath, and Pantera. I know, it's pretty eclectic, but the new music today is just horrible. When I'm driving for work, I usually listen to Howard Stern or Bubba the Love Sponge on Sirius. FTE, baby!
