Check out Willie Nelson's Countryman...recorded in Jamaica, with a reggae groove....R

Currently in the car is Weather Report, Eberhard Weber, Wishful Thinking and Renaissance.

Had to whip out to the car and have a look:

Pink Floyd - Pulse
AC/DC - Back In Black
Searchers - Greatest Hits
Airway Lanes EP
Beatles compilation
George Thorogood and The Destroyers - Half A Boy, Half A Man

They'd see me out the first 200 miles!!

In my car...

Who - Quadrophenia
Booker T MG's - forget the album, but very groovy
Soft Machine - 4th & 5th (very out there...)
Stevie Wonder - Songs in the key of life

British Invasion..Rhino set...

There are no CDs in my CD player. However, practically my entire CD collection is on my iPod plug in through a cassette tape adapter. It seems strange that I am using the cassette tape adapter. I tried the wireless devices but they had more interference.

Here's what's in my car CD box right now:

Hautewerk
The Best of Sixpence None the Richer
The Essential John Denver
Glenn Kaiser: Blues Heaven II
Mike Stand and Clash of Symbols: Full Circle
Third Day Chronology
The Waiting: Blue Belly Sky
ABBA Gold
Celine Dion: One Heart (BTW, the lead guitar on "I Drove All Night" sure sounds like a Ric to me....)

In the car:

Beatles - Love
Shamus Twins - The Shamus Twins
Mark Walker's Yes Edited Mix
XM - Deep Tracks or Fine Tuning (MusicLab was dropped )

In my car (I'm currently on a throwback kick):

Willie Nelson - 16 Biggest Hits
George Jones - Greatest Hits
Earth, Wind & Fire - Alive in '75
Earth, Wind & Fire - Hits Compilation

and, XM-167 Air America Radio

[Side note: I finally got a new car (after 11 years) - an '07 Toyota Yaris. One cool thing about it is that it has an auxiliary-in jack, right next to the shift lever between the seats (of all places). I run my XM MyFi into the aux in jack, and that way, I can flip back and forth between XM and CD's by hitting one button on the dashboard, and both are crystal clear. I love it.]

I usually have several CDs in the car, but I just cleaned it out.

But there is one. It's called Basil, a compilation of demo tapes made by Joey Molland of Badfinger from the early 1970s to the present. He lives out here, lent it to a fellow who fixed his computer, and that fellow lent it to me. Basil, I think, was his dog.

Now the iPod...I hook that up to the car stereo and listen to hundreds of things randomly.

Mp3 player has alot of local stuff (3, Peacebomb, Fierce Nipples, Weerd Science, Coheed and Cambria), alot of Fugazi, some Helmet, Zep, Jeff Buckley, DFA 1979, Mars Volta, Minutemen, Primus, Police, Jimi Hendrix, Sly and the Family Stone, Beatles, Cream, Johnny Cash, Fiona Apple, Bad Brains, CodeSeven, Epitones, Hum, Dag, and a bunch of 3kMylz (the stuff I produced.)

Guaranteed to promote schizophrenia...

Postal Service
SNMNMNM
Richard Buckner
The Deedle Deedle Dees

Melissa, I'm sure you must know that Mke Stand is a Rickenbacker player. I know that he owned a JG acoustic. I forget if it is a 700 or a 730 though. He's had a number of other Ricks too. Nice guy.

In my CD player:
Paul McCartney - Memory Almost Full
Hautewerk
Tears For Fears - Elemental
Stone Temple Pilots - Greatest Hits
U2- Best Of

On the iPod:
2500+ songs
