Alrighty, so the annual Alaurian Road Trip is about to commence- destination: Alabama (to bid fare thee well to the Crowligans before their Trans-Atlantic move), then Mammoth Cave National Park(to get dirt under the ol' manicure).
A kick-ass road trip CD is in order. My road-trip CDs tend to be thematic by nature (for example, our last camping vacation was in the Virginia Blue Ridge Mountains, and my mix CD included a reggae version of "Take Me Home Country Roads," and a metal cover of "Hall of the Mountain King") I figured after people make suggestions as to what to include in an Alabama/Kentucky-themed CD we could use this thread to suggest songs for other folk's Mix CDs. So...if I were making a playlist to go down south, what should be on it? **** “Chives?†“Yes, m’lud?†“Is that Ms Ephemera hovering over the croquet lawn?†“Indeed m’lud. She’s marshalled all the haggle-dans. Missy-twigs and vale-nymphs from Claypole Woods. Apparently she intends to tear this house down and dance on the ruins.†“Well, Chives, you’d better start the car, what? And pack my tennis things too†--- Joe 3Heads |

I'd probably throw in some Drive By Truckers, and I'd include "Mississippi Moon" which is one of my favorite deep-fried southern rock staples. "Spirit of New Orleans" is another good one.
Actually, I'd probably bring my "Best of The Band" CD and listen to "Cripple Creek" and "Life is a Carnival" over and over. |

So far, I've included
Alabama Playlist: Southern Man- Neil Young (thanks, robot! I love that song) Sweet Home Alabama- Bama Boyz (cuz..well...I just couldn't bring myself to do the obvious version) Space Oddity- David Bowie (Huntsville! Home of Space Camp!) Kentucky Playlist: Crossroads- Cream (figured it was appropos, being that we'll be travelling from Alabama to Kentucky) Gravel Road- Clutch (TLOML's favorite band, and we'll be...on the road) Underground- Tom Waits (because we'll be doing a 6 hour extreme caving adventure at Mammoth Cave) More suggestions, pleez! (Punk, I'm trying to figure out a good position for your suggestion...previewed it on iTunes, it's like an Irish country song!) **** “Chives?†“Yes, m’lud?†“Is that Ms Ephemera hovering over the croquet lawn?†“Indeed m’lud.

The band was called Golden Earring, btw. And I only know that because I'm currently working my way through old Top Gear episodes, and they had a "Best driving song ever"-poll. And the winner would have been my suggestion too: Queen - Don't stop me now Classic! ****************************************************************** Superbly Sublime Splendiferous Sterling Shiftmaster of the Realm of Unproductivity and Procrastination ****************************************************************** You are a Player. There are no small parts, only small people, and we suspect that's due to malnutrition endemic to the period. Every night you're a different person, knave or king, man or woman, 875 roles in all. The ones the audience liked got you applause, and the ones they didn't got you pelted rotten vegetables. The theater is a harsh mistress, but you love her dearly. Plus, it beats working for a living! ****************************************************************** 'But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked.

Yeah. I know. My college roomie had Golden Earring's Greatest Hits. It really confused me because I knew Radar Love and Twilight Zone and then there were a bunch of songs they must have thought were great.

...daidle deedle daidle digga digga deedle daidle dum.
OK missy, you KNEW that would be the first thing that would pop into my head by you posting that. Damn earworm... *grumblegumblegrumble* As for suggestions, "La Grange" by ZZ Top is an excellent driving song...granted, it's about Texas, but ooh! It's a kinda sorta backwards musical reference! ~ Non-Mod-Amy, aka Amy of the Lost Ark You are a Bookholder. To prompt, or...LINE! (not to prompt) --not to prompt. That is the question. Whether t'is nobler to suffer the slings and arrows of a bad memory, or to take arms against a sea of textual deviations, and...LINE! (by opposing) --by opposing them...LINE! (end) --end...LINE! (them) --end them...LINE! (to prompt, to correct; no more; and by a correction to say we end the heart-ache of a really terrible performance) You didn't have to give me the whole thing! I know it! |

Alright, I've downloaded "Radar Love," but I discovered a Ministry cover of it that....
RAWKS. Oh, and is anyone else pissed that Tool isn't available on iTunes?? **** “Chives?†“Yes, m’lud?†“Is that Ms Ephemera hovering over the croquet lawn?†“Indeed m’lud.
