Re: Best Roadtrip Albums

[jasper]

Son Volt is an excellent suggestion. I listened to them a lot when I was traveling through the US this summer. Also, This is a long drive for someone with nothing to think about by Modest Mouse, besides having a wonderful title, is also a great album for the road. And, of course, you should start out with Where You Been. I mean, shouldn’t everything start with "Out There"?

Then, when the sun sets, and melancholy is all over your car and the lonesome, dark road – play something less loud. I suggest Leonard Cohen’s Songs from a room, Neil Young’s Unplugged, and Bob Dylan’s Another side of Bob Dylan. Of course, these won’t help much in keeping you awake. Oh, well. Being awake is overrated anyway. [img]images/smiles/converted/wink.gif[/img]
