So what do us racer types listen to?
I gotta have something on in the garage, and I installed a XM Satellite radio in our truck. My latest CD purchases. OutKast, and nine inch nails. My next will probably be Seven Mary Three, and the best of Hootie. BTW I LOVE 7mary3. AND in there newest CD the Economy Of Sound, it looks to me like they is autoxing(!), in some of the liner note pictures!! |

I think a lot of us "step off" with the music we grew up with and don't keep up with the "new stuff" after a certain point...
I used to work for a music distributor back in the 80s and was very involved with the music scene, going to concerts, listening to promotional materials, marketing, etc. I was put in charge of CDs when they first came out. There were only about 10 titles initially because there were only two plants making them. "Record" store owners were less than excited about getting them too, as the profit margin on them compared to vinyl was very small. One of the first titles was "Dark Side of the Moon" by Pink Floyd. Also one of my faves! It took a long time for CDs to be as extensive in catalog as vinyl, however, CDs emerged a very strong victor in that battle with much lower costs (many CD plants were built) than vinyl. I used my priviledges in getting promotional CDs and the opportunity to buy them wholesale to build a large CD collection. I see many of my faves listed!!! Van Halen esp. Running with the Devil Sammy Hagar (don't like Van Hagar as much as either separately), Bad Motor Scooter, I Can't Drive 55, Trans-Am. Heart Led Zeppelin Peter Gabriel Santana (esp. Abraxas and the one he did with collaborations recently) Stone Temple Pilots Metallica esp. Enter Sandman Beach Boys - lots o car songs there. My first vinyl album was Endless Summer Jefferson Airplane - some Starship Janis Joplin Jimi Hendrix Beatles ZZ Top (also saw Afterburner tour!) and lots more this genres Less mainstream Robert Cray Pat Metheny I have an XM Radio with my Duramax Diesel, listen to TopTracks on there. I also like stations that play "Old School R&B." |
