Music for a roadtrip
Okay, let's say that tomorrow you have to go for an eight hour drive. You have to go alone and most of it will be on the interstates. The thing is you can only take four cd's with you. They can be any kind of music that you want, but you can't take any greatest hits. What four do you take?

Damn, this is a tough one. The metal/hard rock cd's I would take would be...
Queensryche - Empire
AC/DC - Powerage
Metallica - Master of Puppets
Badlands - Badlands
The Doors nightclub CD(compilation r allowed?)
Nightwish, Centuary child.
That AC/DC Cd thats always in my car that I always forget the name of but I can sing every song on it;)
KISS: ANIMILIZE.....
Ok OK, no so hardcore at all but I can atleast sing on my trip....whoohooo......:)
LSD - Silent majority
Savatage - Streets ... A Rock Opera
Metallica - Garage Days Inc. (Cover collection - don't know if it is valid)
Pink Floyd - The Wall (Not totally metal but hey... I can't see me without this)
Iron Maiden - Somewhere in Time
Queensryche - Operation: Mindcrime
Dream Theater - Metropolis 2/Scenes From A Memory
Testament - The Gathering
Children of Bodom - Hate Crew Deathroll
--that should pretty much cover both ends of the spectrum.
In reality, of course, I'd take mix-discs or just hook up my iPod - but for the spirit of the question, Im happy with those 4 choices.
Kiss - Double Platinum
Rush - Different Stages (Never discount a great Rush mix for a roadtrip)
Motorhead - Everything Louder
Fu Manchu - Go For It...Live!
well, as shroud said, in reality I would just burn a couple of mixes or plug up my trusty iPod, but within your parameters:
Led Zeppelin-Disk 3 of the Box Set or if that isn't allowed, then probably Presence
Black Sabbath-Heaven and Hell
Metallica-Ride The Lightning
Metallica-Master of Puppets
I would have two more laid back CDs for the beginning of the trip and two more thrashing CDs to keep me awake later in the trip :)
Tom Petty - Damn the Torpedoes
AC/DC - Highway to Hell
Van Halen - the first one
and the toss-up between:
Pink Floyd - Momentary Lapse of Reason... or
Stevie Ray Vaughn - Couldn't Stand the Weather.
I would take-
Iron Maiden's A matter of life and death
Led Zeppelin's Houses of the holy
Armored Saint's Symbol of salvation
Dokken's Tooth and nail
You're always good for a terrible question... oh to narrow down my options ...
Paramaecium - A Time to Mourn
7 Angels & Plagues - Jahzmyne lulliby
Bal-Sagoth- Battle Magic
Gryp - self titled
I would probably have to pick 4 greatest hit CD's so I could have more tracks. 4 is such a small number when you have hundreds to pick from. :)
I guess this would be mine:
Ratt 81 - 91 Greatest Hits
Def Leppard - Rock of Ages
Motley Crue - Red White and Crue
Van Halen - Best of Van Halen Vol 1.
hard rock hideout- Greatest hits are cheating.
This is very hard but i think i would take with me:
FASTWAY:TRICK OR TREAT
RUNNING WILD:PORT ROYAL
THE EXPLOITED:THE MASSACRE
SAXON:DENIM&LEATHER.
I'd have to say:
Queensryche - Operation: Mindcrime
Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
Metallica - Master of Puppets
Queensryche - Operation: Mindcrime
AC/DC- Back in Black
Alice in Chains- Dirt
Soundgarden- Superunknown
Born to Run - Bruce Springsteen
Vs. - Pearl Jam
Appetite For Destruction - Guns 'n Roses
Physical Graffiti - Led Zeppelin
Savatage - Hall of the Mountain King
Lizzy Borden - Master of Disguise
Killer Dwarfs - Stand Tall
Ozzy - Diary of a Madman
ZZ Top: Rio Grande Mud
AC/DC: Highway to Hell
KISS: Destroyer
Van Halen: Diver Down
An almost impossible question to answer, but it would have to include the following:
Slayer - Reign in Blood
Metallica - Kill 'em All
Iron Maiden - Killers
Nirvana - Bleach
LOL Mark! :)
If I had to pick 4 discs. No Greatest Hits involved.
Whitesnake S/T from 1987
Def Leppard Hysteria
Guns Roses - Appetite for Destruction
Jorn - Worldchanger
Hey, that list looks kind of familiar ;)
Always a good question, and the answer changes day by day depending on mood. I need variety:
GNR: Appetite for Destruction
Iron Maiden: The Number of the Beast
Nine Inch Nails: The Fragile
Steve Hackett: Spectral Mornings
-- david
I've actually came close to having this situation before. This is a pretty one to do since it would change by next week and each thereafter, but I guess it'd go like this:
Chicago - III
Boris - Pink
Iron Maiden - Powerslave
Queensryche - Operation Mindcrime
Chuck, great pick on those Dwarfs!!!
Testament kicks ass! I love that song.
As for me, I've been listening to Morbid Angel, Turbo Negro, Down, Deadboy and the Elephantmen, Lamb of God and my own newly recorded stuff (analyzing you know).
KISS - Creatures Of The Night
Saxon - Wheels Of Steel
Queen - A Night At The Opera
Riot - Fire Down Under
Tough to only bring four but this could get me through a long drive.
