1. On the Road Agin

3. Take it Easy

4. I Get Around

5. Highway to Hell

6. Free Falling

7. Riders on the Storm

8. Rock and Roll All Night

I don't see that much to disagree with except I Get Around, and Free Fallling... I know that I would put Radar Love in there, and Smoke on the Water. I might not have all the other 8 though.

What would your 10 be?
 
That's every lunch hour on every classic rock station. And that's what ruins it for me.
Good list if it wasn't done to death.


I no longer listen to classic rock stations. But I could see that. What I listen to most these days is new country and 70's disco on satellite. And some jam bands.
 
I would also add the following:

"Can't Drive 55" - Sammy Haggar
"Slow Ride" - Foghat
 
Highway Star
Holiday Road
Runaway (BJ)
Philadelphia Freedom
Route 66 (Depeche Mode)
Born To Run
Danger Zone
Wango Tango
Your Mama Don't Dance
Maybelline

I'm with ya Hank...When I put together a playlist for "me" for a road trip or otherwise I prefer to hear songs that I don't hear everyday or have heard so many times that they have become tiresome......

YMMV :tricool:
 
Mine would be:

Highway Star - Deep Purple
I'm In Love With My Car - Queen
Jerry Was Race Car Driver - Primus
Drivin - Pearly Harbor & The Explosions
The Distance - Cake
Gasoline - Kicking Harold
Low Rider - War
Road Runner - Jonathon Richman
Radar Love - Golder Earring
No Sleep Til Brooklyn - Beastie boys

I don't think they have to be songs about cars, but the list I have did not give details... I'm just guessing it is songs you want to hear while on a road trip.
