What CD gets played in your car?
Discussion
After going through my music collection a few nights ago I came across Simply Red's 'A New Flame' tape and remembered I used to play it in the early '90's on my 'auto-reverse' tape player in my car. I played it non-stop for weeks and I'm not even a Mick Hucknall fan but I bet I could sing along to every track on there even though I haven't listened to it since around 1995.
Got me wondering - What CD's gets the most 'air-time' whilst you're driving? Which would you recommend?

The current FoTM for me is Five Finger Death Punch, though its multiple albums of MP3's on a USB stick rather than individual CD's.
Normally individual CD's are put in if I have just bought them from HMV or wherever so I can listen to it on the way home, once home they are ripped to MP3 and the CD is put on the shelf with the others.

The amp on my radio has been broken for years so the only music I get is from the cd changer. For at least the past 3 years it has been as follows:
1. The Strokes - Is This It
2. Nirvana - Unplugged in New York
3. The Jam - Best Of
4. RHCP - By The Way
5. Kings of Convenience - Riot On An Empty Street
6. The Strokes - Room On Fire
4 & 5 don't get played too often, it has to be said

Noooooooo.I never played my kids stuff like that in the car. They listened to what I listened to whether it was Hendrix, Ray Charles, Santana, Eagles, Motown etc.
Great fun to be had when they were toddlers by buying Kazoo's so they could be part of the Memphis Horns to the Otis Redding choons.
Now they have an appreciation of "proper music" and go to gigs with me.
Well, my old E39 has radio / cassette / 6-CD changer and that pretty much caters for my needs.
