The driving tape

ZermattGT · 02-10-09, 09:42 PM

In the old days you hand mixed a tape for the car. Generally limited to 90-100 minutes if you had a Denon longplay cassette.

What 12-13 songs would you put on such a tape?

When I say driving, I don't mean a solo, feeling sorry for myself rainy night mix.
I mean to tempt fate and hope the law and I don't cross paths.
I mean to exceed the speed limits.

Mine today.

1. When World Collide by Powerman 5000
2. My Friend Dario by Vitalic
3. Bodies by Drowning Pool
4. I Can't Drive 55 by Sammy Hagar
5. When the Levee Breaks by Led Zeppelin
6. Radar Love by Golden Earing
7. Veteran of the Psychic Wars by Blue Oyster Cult
8. Joker and Thief by Wolfmother
9. Highway Star by Deep Purple
10. Jesus Built my Hotrod by the Ministry
11. The Distance by Cake
12. I Know What I am by Band of Skulls
13. 6 Underground by the Sneaker Pimps

The tape I'd choose is....

Parcel tape...

Post the Radio/Tape player and speakers to a mate, save the 1kg or so of weight and the alternator output for the lights and then open the windows... 5 pot at 5.9k... No point in a stereo.... Ya can't hear it, and ya don't want to hear it....

Thank you Ian.
Point taken.
However, not all cars are vintage 5 bangers.
