It's easier in the GMC but in the Ford, with the exhaust and the low gearing, you really have to speak up! | | | Re: Music for long drives in your van | Joined: Apr 2010 Posts: 70 journeyman | journeyman Joined: Apr 2010 Posts: 70 | classic rock...obscure early proto/blues metal or pscychedelic...anything by Fu Manchu...early country /trucker music or bluegrass...so much great music in the world and finding new stuff all the time. | | | Re: Music for long drives in your van | Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 21,211 Likes: 25 Supreme Master | Supreme Master Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 21,211 Likes: 25 | Black Sabbath Ozzy Judas Priest Iron Maiden Any 80's metal really.

We talk more often than not in the van, and as a matter of fact I don't think the stereo even went on on the way to the last evant. GSVR it was. That's Maine to NC. No tunes. by myself is a different story. I dig all manner of tunes, but lately I have been listening to a lot of stuff like Doug Sahm, Tom T. Hall, an obscure country/rock band named Cherokee (who's album has REALLY grown on me for some reason) Flying Burrito Bros, and a dude worth checking out named Jim Mize who has a GREAT album called "Release it to the Sky". One song called 'Disappear in America' has the line "I-40 bound in a multi-colored van" which I just think is really cool. http://www.amazon.com/Release-It-to...p;s=dmusic&qid=1273104563&sr=8-2

They are usually watching TV when we travel to and from runs. She looked at me and said 'REALLY - I was wondering why the clock wasn't on" | | | Re: Music for long drives in your van | Joined: Apr 2010 Posts: 2,847 Likes: 42 veteran | veteran Joined: Apr 2010 Posts: 2,847 Likes: 42 | To whomever on this thread recommended Leafhound, many sincere Thank yous.

This would entertain me from point A to B. However, I will be using a laptop to control much of my A/V needs. Being that I enjoy the sound of all music, providing it's mixed & mastered correctly, I'm pondering installing mid-range studio reference monitors. This way, even the songs you would never listen to, you'll find you enjoy. | | |
