This topic is in the "Cars" conference:
http://www.spring.net/yapp-bin/restricted/read/cars/36
...but I figured that there woudl be some good musical input into the discussion. After all, what would a road trip be without some good music?
Suggestions:
Born To Be Wild - Steppenwolf (of course...)
America - Simon & Garfunkel
America - Neil Diamond
Back In The USA - Chuck Berry
Country Roads, Take Me Home - John Denver (although I like the Toots & The Maytals cover, but what can I say? I'm Jamaican!)
Rocky Mountain High - John Denver
Homeward Bound - Simon & Garfunkel
My Life - Billy Joel
Say Goodbye To Hollywood - Billy Joel
Sweet Home Alabama - Lynyrd Skynyrd
All My Ex-s Live In Texas - some country singer or other
Don't Look Back - Peter Tosh & Mick Jagger (or would you prefer the original by Smokey Roinson & The Miracles?)
Cruising - Smokey Robinson
Sailing - Cristopher Cross
Movin' Out/Anthony's Theme - Billy Joel
Roadhouse Blues - The Doors
Alabama Song (Whisky Bar) - The Doors
Highway 61 Revisited - Bob Dylan
Rainy Day Women #12 & 35 - Bob Dylan
Drive My Car - The Beatles
Little Deuce Coupe - The Beach Boys
Little Honda - The Beach Boys
(I have never heard Little Red Corvette by Prince, would that be appropriate?)
Little Old Lady From Pasadena - Jan & Dean
(Dead Man's Curve by Jan & Dean may be a bit much...)
Any other suggestions?

The Beatles did another song, one of the lines was "on my way home" or something, what song was that?
Hey, what a great idea for a CD to take on the road!
