OT: Best all time album? Need a good travel CD

[SBR_John]

Dark side of the Moon?

Whats a good long haul travel CD? I've worn out Tom Petty, Rush and a few Neil Young.

[idontlikerocks]

u going into the trucking business? i like meatloaf's bat out of hell, johnny cash live at folsom prison, ac/dc high voltage and statler brothers greatest hits. i'm a little bit country......

[Ganchrow]

Easy:

1. London Calling and/or The Clash -- The Clash
2. Led Zeppelin I - IV (any or all) -- Led Zeppelin
3. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band -- The Beatles
4. The White Album -- The Beatles
5. Blood Sugar Sex Magik -- Red Hot Chili Peppers

[Ganchrow]

Actually, this is a pretty good list: The Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.

[Willie Bee]

Wow, can't believe that a Steve Earle album (Guitar Town) actually made the list. Cool, and a damn good album that is. Clapton's 461 Ocean Boulevard should be higher, much higher, than #409. Speaking of Clapton, the classic Derek and the Dominos Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs is another must-have for the collection.

Can't go wrong with any Pink Floyd, boss.

[DrunkenLullaby]

It's definitely outside the realm of classic rock, but I've yet to introduce a person to Flogging Molly's "Drunken Lullabies" that hasn't become a fan....and that list includes Mom & Grandma as well as college buddies. Diversify & give it a shot.

[capitalist pig]

The Doors album"The Doors" is good traveling music.

Break On Through (To The Other Side)
Soul Kitchen
The Crystal Ship
Twentieth Century Fox
Alabama Song (Whiskey Bar)
Light My Fire
Back Door Man
I Looked At You
End Of The Night
Take It As It Comes
The End

later

[robzilla]

Payable on death- Satillite
Disturbed - Believe

Only if u like Nu Metal

[BuddyBear]

Van Morrison: Astral Weeks.

When you first hear it, you won't like it and wonder how anyone can possibley find it good. Listen to it again, you'll like it a bit more and you'll think it is not bad. Listen to it a third time and it be one of the top albums in your collection.

[louisvillekid]

Led baby, Led Zep, thats all you need, II or Physical Graffiti, or as Ganch said any of them.

[DrunkenLullaby]

Actually, I almost forgot that I've probably logged more miles behind the wheel to the Bodeans' "Joe Dirt Car" (live double CD) than any other album. Also, it doesn't require as much of a journey outside classic rock as Flogging Molly.

[pavyracer]

Seventh Son of a Seventh Son - Iron Maiden

[jjgold]

The Wall

[jjgold]

Where you going Johnny?

getting run out of town?

Do you want me to tell them?

[Dark Horse]

LA Woman - The Doors

I wanna tell you 'bout Texas Radio and the Big Beat
Comes out of the Virginia swamps
Cool and slow with plenty of precision
With a back beat narrow and hard to master

Some call it heavenly in it's brilliance
Others, mean and rueful of the Western dream
I love the friends I have gathered together on this thin raft
We have constructed pyramids in honor of our escaping
This is the land where the Pharaoh died

The Negroes in the forest brightly feathered
They are saying, "Forget the night.
Live with us in forests of azure.
Out here on the perimeter there are no stars
Out here we is stoned - immaculate.

[Willie Bee]

Those are actually the lyrics to WASP (Texas Radio & The Big Beat), Dark Horse. A great album, my favorite from The Doors.

[austintx05]

how about

And Justice for All
Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence

[imgv94]

Nirvana: Nevermind
Bush: Sixteen Stone
Dr.Dre: The Chronic
Snoop Doggy Dogg: Doggystyle
Eminem: Marshall Mathers LP
Beatles: Greatest Hits
Rolling Stones: Greatest Hits
2PAC: All Eyes On Me

[20Four7]

Easy:

1. London Calling and/or The Clash -- The Clash
2. Led Zeppelin I - IV (any or all) -- Led Zeppelin
3. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band -- The Beatles
4. The White Album -- The Beatles
5. Blood Sugar Sex Magik -- Red Hot Chili Peppers

I can't believe there is a Ganch post that I can read, understand and agree with. I'd add Meatloaf Bat out of hell, and I like the Ramones by the Ramones. I have also done travelling with Everlast Whitey Ford sings the blues and Evanesense (I like it but it may be a bit to disturbed/down for most).

JOhn, find what you like and take a lot ot it.

[Dark Horse]

Those are actually the lyrics to WASP (Texas Radio & The Big Beat), Dark Horse. A great album, my favorite from The Doors.

So you know what Mr. Mojo Rising means.

Every song on LA Woman is great. Riders on the Storm turned out to be JM's goodbye.

[adriano]

how about

And Justice for All

Not exactly music for travelling, but my favourite album of all time is Lateralus.

[zootiehead]

Soundgarden Superuknown is a good one.

[BigBollocks]

Can't ever go wrong with Elvis or the Beatles, that's for sure

[BrentCrude]

It sounds off the wall blue collar redneck but the all time biggest seller that spans every generation from your grandpa's to your kid's kids that everybody has come in contact with is Johnny Horton's greatest hits.We had a war ship come into port as a recruiting tool recently and they played that album over the loudspeaker from the ship.Music to drink beer by.

[hhsilver]

Try something new ( but old). Jelly Roll Morton's Red Hot Peppers from 1926-28. Or Louis Armstrong's Hot 5's or Hot 7's from the same period. Or, you can't go wrong with Bix.
Trying to tout the music I love best.

Theres' a great website for listening to all the good old good stuff if anyone's interested.

[BigD]

Dave Matthews Band Live in Central Park

[MBENZ]

Ted Nugent....stranglehold

[louisvillekid]

Ted Nugent....stranglehold

when i used to go to crappy shady strip joints in my early 20's, the kind where theres no DJ, just a juke-box, and the girls ask for money for the juke-box. i used to request that song all the time if i got a lap dance. girls would be like 4-5 minutes into it and ask "how long is this song?", i would just laugh and say "i'm just trying to get my moneys worth."

[NapoleonEli]

If you like hip-hop? Listen to Immortal Technique-Revolutionary Vol.2. Its one of the BEST or just could be the BEST.
