Here's my list in no order:

Styx-Cyclorama
The Who - Who Are You
Bon Jovi-Keep The Faith
Zebra-Zebra Greatest Hits
Fleetwood Mac-Say You Will
Warren Zevon-The Wind
Sammy Hagar-Ten 13
Journey-Arrival
Foreigner-Mr. Moonlight
Pearl Jam-Ten

STYX - Equinox
STYX - Pieces of Eight
Honeymoon Suite - The Big Prize
The Babys - Anthology
Rob Thomas - Something To Be

Pat Benatar - Heartbreaker/16 Classic Performances

Road trips are a great oppourtunitie to hear completed works. I would choose the following.............

Pink Floyd - Amimals
Rush - Archives (Rush, Fly by Night, Caress of Steel)
Carrol King - Tapestry
Jethro Tull - Aqualung
Yes - Going for the One
Yes - 90125

Genisis - Lamb Lies down on broadway
Tho Who - Quadropphinia
Led Zeppelin - #3
Led Zeppelin - #4
Nazerath - Hair of the Dog

Sorry Styx does not make the cut...............

Note: This is Onestilllearning accidentally posting on my daughters users name.

P.S. - How do you guys feel about my 13 yer old posting here? Is it appropriate? Does it bother anyone? As a general rule I feel uncomfortable with Danielle posting on any board but I can at least monitor her postings here and I think most people here are a good influence and positive role models. Also I think she might learn abit about dealing with diverse opionions. -

Here is the music that I would Most Like To Here On my Road Trip...

Styx - Return To Paradise
Eagles - The Very Best
The Beatles- 1
Metallica - Black
Guns N Roses - Appetite For Destruction
Rush - Chronicles
Journey - Greatest Hits Live
Kansas - The Best Of Kansas
Styx - Pieces Of Eight
Damn Yankees - The Essentials

Still learning,

I almost fell out of my chair when I thought I was reading what Danielle would take on a road trip......although that too is a list I'd be interested in seeing.

I think it's very cool that she WANTS to post here.... I for one enjoy her perspective, and think it's cool to talk to someone here age, in a public setting where ulterior motives and suspicions arent an issue.

While it's sad I have to even consider it from that angle, man you can NEVER be too careful about kids and the web....too many horror stories in the news. So, encourage her to come here as often as she wants, but don't blame me if her sense of humor gets a little warped as a result !

-Classic

Thanks Classic - Danielle is suddenley becoming a bigger Styx fan than me. She read that TS is listening to Green Day and thats her fav band.

oohhhhhhhh so much music to choose from, but here goes

STYX -PIECES OF 8
STYX- GRAND ILLUSION
BLACKMORES NIGHT - GHOST OF A ROSE
RAINBOW - RISING
PINK FLOYD - DARK SIDE OF THE MOON
JOURNEY - GREATEST HITS
UFO - STRANGERS IN THE NIGHT
THIN LIZZY - LIVE AND DANGEROUS
GENESIS - SECONDS OUT
MCAULEY SCHENKER GROUP - MSG

They would cover most of my moods I think( methinks a UK cross country would be a lot shorter than a USA)
STARTING MY LONG DRIVE HOME TOMMOROW, 300 miles ( well its a long way to us Brits LOL )

I don't take full albums on the road. With over 1,300 MP3s (95% of my music collection), I have to burn a few mix-CDs and hope to high hell they tide me over. If I get burned out on them, I'll turn to XM's Boneyard or their Comedy channel to keep truckin along.

That XM's comedy channel is a cool and funny alternative to music....

Hell, it'll run you into a ditch or into oncoming traffic if you're not careful!

The 10 CD's that I have been wearing out lately are:

10. Supertramp - If Everyone Was Listening- Live CD
9. Triumph - Just A Game
8. Foreigner- Mr. Moonlight- 'Real World' - INCREDIBLE song, GREAT CD!
7. Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of the Moon
6. The Cars
5. Styx - Cornerstone
4. Tommy Shaw - 7 Deadly Zens
3. Glen Burtnik - Welcome To Hollywood
2. Styx- Equinox/Edge Of The Century - 2 on 1 CD
1. Dream Theatre- Octavarium

I mostly listen to compilations, but here is a list of CD albums I might take with me and listen to in their entirity.

In no order:

The Who - Who's Next
The Beatles - Abbey Road
Joni Mitchell - Court and Spark
Dennis DeYoung - The Ultimate Collection
Styx - Equinox
Styx - Pieces of Eight
Journey - Greatest Hits
Steely Dan - Aja
Kansas - The Best of Kansas
Dennis DeYoung - The Hunchback

(Ok, I suppose Journey, Kansas and DDY UC would be considered compilations)

Bugsy

The ten I would take if I left right this moment:

American Idiot - Green Day
The Bottle and Fresh Horses - The Refreshments
Live In Buffalo - The Goo Goo Dolls

I could be wrong...but I'm taking a wild guess you like the Goo Goo Dolls!

I could be wrong...but I'm taking a wild guess you like the Goo Goo Dolls!

Yeah, guilty as charged! They're my latest musical fettish! I'm working my way back through their catalog and am liking everything I've heard so far. I LOVE the Live In Buffalo CD/DVD combo. It's by far the best musical purchase I've made in the last year. I like a lot of their lesser known songs, kind of like another band that gets mentioned here from time to time . . .
