Music for a Journey
BeoPuppy:
You should (and Lorelai Gilmore agrees with me on this) have with you a copy of the song 'Highway To Hell' by AC/DC. It's mandetory.
mberan42:
Hey, thanks everyone. You've advised me on some pretty rad music.
I leave in about an hour. Have a good week, and I'll see if I can post my experience when I get back.
Cheers.
La Creme:
--- Quote from: ironoxide887 ---For a long road trip like that I'd definitely pick up the album "Riding With the King" by B.B. King and Eric Clapton. It's a completely ace road trip album.

Yes.
Just get as much post-rock as you can.
Emerson, Lake, And Palmer's "Trilogy" is also a great driving and journeying album.
El Opium:
My two favorite hiway driving albums are "Exquisite Fucking Boredom" by Skullflower and "Live in Italy" by LOOP. Both are really heavy and repetitive trance rock stuff. I also find a lot of krautrock is pretty appropriate for travelling especially Neu's first album and anything by Kraftwerk.
Patrick:
Queen is surprisingly good music for driving. Especially the ones that are ridiculously cheesy-sounding love songs. Of course, for this to be any fun, you have to have somebody in the car with you.
Another good group for such things would be The Eagles. Unless, of course, you don't like them. Some people love them, some people want to stab them to death with salad forks. If you do like them, though, they are a must on any road trip.
Glenn Miller is a must-have. Cake as well. There's a Scottish rock group called Runrig, who are brilliant. Their new lead vocalist has a kindof annoying voice (Donnie Munro had this powerful gunboat of a voice) and it sounds kindof wimpy, but the music is still good.
Other good driving music is the early, more Texas-blues stuff of ZZ Top. Billy Gibbons does some EPIC guitar work, so if you dig Zeppelin, you'll adore Top.
I'm going to stop being a threadjack whore. Hope you agree with my suggestions, I think with your list you might like most of them.
EDIT: Cowboy Bebop soundtrack music is AWESOME.
