RichP714 3,158 Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 What makes you drive faster than you should? etc.
BillD 239 Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 God, there's a lot of them. China Grove comes to mind. I just put China Grove in Genius on iTunes and it generated this (partial) list China Grove (Doobies) Hot Blooded (Foreigner) What's Your Name (Skynyrd) Go Your Own Way (Fleetwood Mac) Mama Told Me (Not to Come) (Three Dog Night) Take The Money ANd Run (Steve Miller) Proud Mary (Creedence) Saturday Night's Alright For Fighteing (Elton John) One Of THese Nights (Eagles) Money (Pink Floyd) Rock & Roll Band (Boston) La Grange (ZZ Top) Truckin' (Grateful Dead) Let It Ride (BTO) Cocaine (Clapton) Somebody To Love (Jefferson Airplane) Just a little sampling of the various shit I have in iTunes
Balok 1,564 Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 Those are all good Bill. I would add; Revolution, The Beatles Won't Get Fooled Again, The Who Layla, Derek and the Dominos Time, Pink Floyd Crosstown Traffic, Jimi Hendrix No Matter What, Bad Finger Had to Cry Today, Blind Faith Powderfinger, Neil Young etc, etc.
TNRabbit 370 Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 Nothing makes me drive faster than I WANT to.... o:) ...but "La Bouche: Shoo Be Do Bee Do (I Like That Way)" helps assist me in my speeding... (popular in Europe, not so much here; you guys have probably never even heard it)
Guest FrankieD Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 No contest! The "Underture" from Tommy by the Who. If you aren't going at least 10-20 mph faster at the end than at the beginning your deaf!

Guest FrankieD Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 What makes you drive faster than you should? etc. The Who...Tommy: The underture. If you're on an open highway this instrumental will add at least 10 Mph to your speed, from the beginning to the end. I already posted an answer to this. My brain is going!

Judas Priest...Electric Eye, Hot Rockin' Satriani...Surfing With The Alien Scorpions...Catch Your Train, Another Piece of Meat UFO...Lights Out AC/DC...Let There Be Rock The Specials...Nite Klub, Gangsters Joe Jackson...I'm the Man Smashing Pumpkins...Slunk Stone Temple Pilots...Crackerman ...just off the top of my head...
dokblues 101 Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Well I`m not so sure about drive faster (maybe) But every long trip I drive starts with this: THE DOORS: Roadhouse Blues "Keep your eyes on the Road and your hands upon the wheel"

zumbini 6,146 Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 Just about anything by Little Feat. No one sits through a Little Feat concert!
zumbini 6,146 Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 I saw Little Feat twice at Alpine Valley in WI and three times at various venues in Chicago in the mid to late 70's and early 80's. The only folks who managed to sit through any of those concerts were confined to wheelchairs. I rank those shows with Pink Floyd's Dark Side Of The Moon concerts (in Phoenix and Chicago in 1973) and Led Zeppelin's stadium busters in 1969, 1970, 1972 and 1974.
jldeni 439 Posted May 15, 2010 Posted May 15, 2010 Although there are a ton of tunes I get pumped on, I think that Santana's Soul Sacrifice is my all time favorite. Not only should it be good for an extra 30 mph while driving - nomatter what the speed limit is, but I think if you get stopped and tell the cop why you were speeding, he'll let you go.
zumbini 6,146 Posted May 15, 2010 Posted May 15, 2010 I've been a huge Santana fan since I saw the band during the Abraxas tour in 1970 (I think). 40 years later Carlos is still going strong. What's better than Carlos? How 'bout Carlos and Eric Clapton!
Blues Pwr 765 Posted May 15, 2010 Posted May 15, 2010 For me its the Scorpions, whatever your mood they have a song to fit, from power ballads (No One Like You) to in your face rock (Rock You Like A Hurricane) to slow spacey stuff (China White, When The Smoke Is Going Down)it all works for me.......
jldeni 439 Posted May 15, 2010 Posted May 15, 2010 I've been a huge Santana fan since I saw the band during the Abraxas tour in 1970 (I think). Carlos puts on a FANTASTIC show. I sprung for front row seats - center stage - when his Supernatural tour came around a few years ago. They were worth every penny. That's something I'll never forget - (regardless of any enhancing substances or legal beverage.) I can hardly imagine seeing him along side Clapton! What an opportunity that would be.
BillD 239 Posted May 15, 2010 Posted May 15, 2010 Carlos teams up sometimes with Ottmar Liebert. One song, Samba Pa Ti, that Santana did way back in the early 1970s, Ottmar did the acoustic guitar work and Carlos the electric. They reprised that work on Ottmar's 1992 album Solo Pa Ti where the acoustic was the lead and Carlos played the bridge on electric.
