at the speed limit - sinatra, rabbi shergill
somewhat above the speed limit - ATB, U2, coldplay, lyube (Russian)

Always nice to see another Sinatra fan. I have pretty much everything he recorded. I prefer his Swing and mid-tempo albums for the car.

I have a 160GB iPod loaded with lossless audio that contains everything from classical to country. Not much rap, electronica, or any opera in my collection.

Some of my favorite car albums (besides Sinatra) for right now:

Rolling Stones - Exile on Main Street
Otis Redding - Otis Blue or disc 2 from his 3 CD box
Soundgarden - Superunknown
Sonny Rollins - Saxophone Colossus
Magic Sam - West Side Soul
Beatles - Help
Bob Marley - Legend
Jimmy Buffett - Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes
Bruce Springsteen - Born to Run
The Ramones - All the Stuff & More (Vol 1 & 2)

edit - have to mention Back in Black

Tank of Gas, check. Serengeti sunglasses, check.

Now, what's the very first CD or iPod music you cranked up in your new 1?

Fair Warning: Answers could date you.

Rolling Stones - Sticky Fingers

Sourced from eBay a CD of Tangerine Dream's Stratosfear, the best driving music ever.
