OK, my RV8 supplies the sound track for 85% of the time but for those other occasions what do you listen to?

Obviously, I have the best TOP 5 after trying various albums during my 6 month ownership!

My top 5 are (in no particular order:

GORILLAZ - DEMON DAYS

BLACK EYED PEAS - MONKEY BUSINESS

GUNS N ROSES - GREATEST HITS (the only greatest hits allowed!)

JAKE BUGG - JAKE BUGG

KATE BUSH - HOUNDS OF LOVE (yes, try it)

I suppose if you're into classical then the Ride Of The Valkyries by Wagner works?

The prize for the one whose selection matches the most popular?

Signed CD from one direction smile My daughters going to kill me!

I've had it almost a year and don't even know how to turn the radio on/select CD's. It has only been turned on once in my ownership, and that was by a passenger.

I have however, populated the CD changer!

I'm pretty sure this is what I put in -

Classic Gatecrasher (2CDs)
A State of Trance 2011 (2CDs)
The Prodigy - Fat of the Land
Green Day - 21st Century Breakdown

We have had the car since October and we haven't listened to the stereo at all.
But if we were to have some it would be
1) The who
2) Dire Straights
3) Nickleback
4) Bon Jovi
5) Led Zep
Not in that order and have avoided listing Shelly's choice of Donna Summer, Proclaimers, Right said Fred, Jimmy Sommerville and the Carpenters.lol

Well based on that load of st I'm in Seeby's car, Steely Dan go on boy. Joking lads,

Skitty polity, Police, Grace Jones, George Benson(breezin) album, Dave Brubeck take five. Stan Getz.

Can't actually play music in my car it would be like trying to mix two tunes at once?

That and I hav'nt even got a stereo in the old girl.

I'm thinking of doing a few euro runs etc, it would be excellent to have a few tunes blasting out, some good choices there chaps. Al
