The bass player (Barry Bales) is my next door neighbor. Living in East TN you get a lot of good Bluegrass music events here. I listen to Track 14 on XM most of the time. :doorag:
This is the movie version of it.

My wife and I listen to the wind, the sound of our Spyder, the tires on the pavement, other bikes when they pass us. If we stop along the road (in the country) we listen to the stillness, try and hear the birds if there are some around. Yes, for us the natural sounds are the music we listen to when we ride.

One of my favorites, and probably 25% of my files! I also like 60s folk, oldies (that's 50s & 60s - not the 70s, 80s, & 90s kids), any hot rod or car songs, bluegrass, and a few other things, just for fun.

I have a pretty wide variety, I have a very large selection of Contemporary Christian music and then of course some classic stuff like CCR and Tom Petty, Bob Seger, REO Speedwagon, Aerosmith, a little Doors, just a wide variety.

A good question would be:
If you could only have three artists-groups songs, which three???
For me, top two are easy, third was a tough choice, but doable.
For me in order:
All of Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits
All of Stevie Ray Vaughn
All of Pink Floyd

Hey Scotty:
If you include Ian Tyson's recordings after he broke up with Sylvia, you would have a terrific list of songs to choose from. He did some of his best work on Cowboyography, And Stood There Amazed and Eighteen Inches of Rain. If you haven't heard those albums you need to give them a listen.

I'm no cowboy. His later stuff doesn't do much for me. Even I&S's later stuff toward the end of their duo is not as good as the pure folk of the early years. Still, two great voices there, delightful harmonies, and Ian plays the guitar very well.

When I plugged in my Ipod for a trip to Town, I noticed that I didn't seem to have control over any of the radio functions other than volume.:shocked: I thought that I'd be able to advance to the next song in the queue with this system...
Am I missing something?

Press the right button to advance top the next song. The left will go back to the previous song, but not if you are set up to play in random order. Then it will restart the song currently playing. I think holding the right or left buttons down for a few seconds will change to the next playlist, but I never do that, so I'm not sure.

Pressing Mode displays the IPod configuration. Press and hold the right side button to display and advacne through the playlists. Press once to advance to next song or press once on the left side to go back.

I have 7300 songs on my ipod, so it could go just about anywhere. Currently I mostly listen to Austin artists like Ryan Bingham and Lucinda Williams and to new female soul singers like Grace Potter and Sharon Jones. If I had to pick just three it would be Metallica,Annie Lenox and number 3 would change often. Today it would likely be Lucinda Williams. Tomorrow it might be Flogging Molly or Rusted Root or a dozen others. I doubt #1 and #2 would change at all.

03-12-2012, 06:43 PM
When listening with the ipod hook up, I listen to AC/DC,
Creedance Clearwater, Eagles , ELO, Moody Blues, Nirvana,
Pink Floyd, Supertramp,Ten Years After, and female artists
Adele, Alanis morissette, Alicia Keys, Beyonce, Pink, Sheryl
Crow, and for News on XM channel 112(CNBC), 116(HLN) & 1
17 (MSNBC) & 126 (Fox) and Howard 100,
along with the Laugh track 160,
When I am in a rock or country mood I have channel 25, 26 , 59 & 60
I usually ride with just the sound on in my helmet around town, but on
the freeway I put the external speakers on too. easier to hear. Hardly ever
listen to FM, but AM for Lakers basketball or Dodgers baseball.
I am gonna try out some others that people here have suggested, so thanks! :clap:
Life is good :cheers:
