Recommended Posts

After reading through the post on the online station, it gave me some really good suggestions for songs to download to my MP3.

Then I thought it would be a great thread. Be specific on the song name. As you guys recommend them, I'm gonna download the ones I like. Thanks in advance....

Already downloaded lots of CCR, Black Betty, Danger Zone, etc. Keep em coming.:dancefool:

My particular all time favorite is "Sultans of Swing" by Dire Straits.

all of their stuff, honestly. haven't met a dire straights song i didn't like.

favorite of mine is "brothers in arms"

 

i have alot of ecletic music tastes, i'm gonna assume you want us to stick in the rock genra?

 

the shins - new slang

explosions in the sky - only moment we were alone, greet death, glittering darkness, your hand in mine, birth and death of a day, first breath after a coma

band of horses - the funeral

patty griffin - top of the world, heavenly day, rain, long ride home

red fang - prehestoric dog

cake - frank sinatra, the distance, never there, no phone, comfort eagle

the ramones - we want the airwaves

brandi carlile - the story , fall apart again, turpentine

the black angels - young men dead , manipulation

pretty much anything at all by andy mckee

citizen cope - sideways, bullet, son's gonna rise

 

that should keep you busy a while

i specifically picked music from the path less traveled. we all know and love CCR, but something different and new is nice from time to time.

I agree with all those who have posted. I have complied over 80 gig of music so it's impossible to pick just one song or one group but, I will throw some out..

 

Freebird

Stairway to Heaven

Green Grass High Tides

My Sweet Lord

Layla

The Weight

White Room

Highway Star

Dear Mr. Fantasy etc...

 

Could go on for days...

gosh, this could go on for many pages. Here's a start:

 

Stevie Ray Vaughn:

Texas Flood

Voodoo Chile and Little Wing (Hendrix songs)

Pride and Joy

Lenny

Riviera Paradise

 

Led Zeppelin:

Stairway to Heaven (cliche, but still one of the greatest songs of all time)

Pretty much everything else they ever recorded

 

Lynyrd Skynyrd:

Freebird

Sweet Home Alabama

Gimme Three steps

That Smell

... and lots more

 

Allman Brothers Band:

Midnight Rider

Ramblin Man

Whipping Post

 

Jimi Hendrix:

All Along the Watchtower

Voodoo Chile (slight return)

Little Wing

Hey Joe

Purple Haze

Wind Cries Mary

Red House

 

Joe Bonamassa:

(if you don't know Joe B, and you like the above artists, you owe it to yourself to check him out - amazing blues rock guitarist)

Burning Hell

Lie No. 1

Your funeral, my trial

Miss you Hate you

If heartaches were nickels

Pain and Sorrow

River

 

Mike Bloomfield:

(another not too well know blues guitarist form the 70's)

Killing Floor (a remake)

Work Song

Alberts Shuffle

... everything on the Essential Blues compilation CD

 

Dream Theatre:

(changing genres here - this is a progressive metal band - but very melodic. Think Yes or ELP crossed with Metallica)

Pull me under

Space-dye vest

Lie

Mirror

Learning to Live

 

Creep by Stone Temple Pilots

Pieces & Crawling in the Dark by Hoobastank

Tonight by Elton John

 

OK, that's enough to now. Enjoy! Looking forward to seeing what others post here.

Agreed. All Dire Straights as well as Mark Knopflers solo stuff. Possible exception - I get real tired of hearing Money for Nothing. My vavorite of their CD's is actually one of their least successful - On Every Street. Love Heavy Fuel and the Windsheild/Bug song. (not sure of actual title)

Supertramp Live is Paris is an awsome album, a phenominal concert as the crowd was VERY into it.

Stoned Temple Pilots-Interstate love song

Eagles-Sad Cafe

The Doors-Riders on the Storm, The end...pretty much all of it

Skynard-Freebird, Down South Junkin, Simple man...again all of it

Queen-Live Killers...awsome live album

Too much to try and think of, Jethro Tull, Nazareth, 38 Special.....

Funny, I was just listening to my MP3 and realized that all the songs that I listen to are from the 60's - 70's!

 

Good riding songs? Too many to list. I'll be bringing my laptop along to Maintenance Day. I believe I have around 3000 song on it and would be happy to share.

Way too many and varied music to single out just one or a few. In my collections (albums, cassetts, mp3, cds, and 8Tracks{no way to play these though}) I have almost everything form Acuff to Zappa. Everything except opera, disco, polka, and rap!
