Road trip music- The Rolling Stones Exile on Main Street,The Scorpions Lovedrive,UFO Lights Out,and Ozzy Osbourne Diary of a Madman. That is just for starters. I always pack some AC/DC with Bon Scott,like Powerage or High Voltage,maybe Jailbreak,some good old rockin. May throw in Zep Physical Graffiti in there,or Presence. The Who live at Leeds. Zappa.

Yo Dreamweaver, I gotta a song for you...
Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight Gonna grab some afternoon delight My motto's always been 'when it's right, it's right' Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night? When everything's a little clearer in the light of day And we know the night is always gonna be there any way
Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite Looking forward to a little afternoon delight Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ingite And the thought of lovin' you is getting so exciting Sky rockets in flight Afternoon delight Afternoon delight Afternoon delight
Started out this morning feeling so polite I always though a fish could not be caught who wouldn't bite But you've got some bait a waitin' and I think I might try nibbling A little afternoon delight Sky rockets in flight Afternoon delight Afternoon delight Afternoon delight
Please be waiting for me, baby, when I come around We could make a lot of lovin' 'for the sun goes down
Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite Looking forward to a little afternoon delight Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ingite And the thought of lovin' you is getting so exciting Sky rockets in flight Afternoon delight Afternoon delight Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight!

Well....give us an example.
You mean like Jim Croce, Cat Stevens, The Carpenters or Van the Man? Groups like that? I honestly don't know what classifies in this genre, but I am 70's curious.

This is one of the best blues bands I ever watched perform, caught a few shows at Winterland and the Fillmore West, they have the get down boggie beat.

Whoa! A Savoy Brown plug. Damn Illahee - you do have great taste in music. Been to Winterland and the FW in person during the heydays - makes me very jelly.

If I remember correctly they were more popular in England and Europe, so I saw them as a warmup band.
I was on my walk today and it came to me why Savoy Brown never really made it in the US. Their manager was Kim Simmon's father, and he was a number one ahole. This is also the reason for the high turn over band members.
This is a tribute to a true blues legend, Peter Green kills it on lead guitar and really shows his range. This was in 1966, I think the Bee Gees or Monkeys or Wee Wee's were popular on American AM top 40. Then the Vietnam War happened and I found myself surrounded by blues junkies. This is what we listened to in the shop. Lifers hated it, but majority ruled the shop stereo.

I've been on a smooth 70's kick lately. Supertramp, Gerry Rafferty, Harry Nilsson with some Steely mixed in.
It's the dog days of summer. Workin' from home. Chillin' in the yard with the dogs, chickens and Swiss Chard. Pretty mellow and relaxing. My Swiss Chard LOVES Harry Nilsson and grows much better whenever I play Coconut.
Weed has absolutely nothing to do with any of this. I don't touch the stuff personally.

Holy chit. Tommy Bolin. That's a name I haven't heard in a long time. I know what's on tomorrow's playlist.

Been dustin' off the ol' outlaw country albums a bit. Too many greats songs to choose from, so here's a small random sampling to help you down the road. Haven't even got to Hank, Merle & David Allen yet...

Me as well - back in the Colorado cowboy outlaw days. I got into some small trouble in kindergarten for singing "Up Against The Wall" during class. My teacher had to ask my mom about what in the hell I was singing and what it meant. Mom just blushed and said sorry, we'll handle it.
I love em' all, but Waylon is my go to guy. Imagine if he'd got on Buddy Hollies plane that fateful night? He beat himself up for years about what he said to Buddy before they left and was never the same after that. That's what caused his downfall into Outlaw country, cocaine, booze and women.
Protip: If at all possible, Karaoke "Put another log on the fire". It's a real crowd pleaser, especially with the women folk.

Arvid - did you know that "Put another log on the fire" was written by Shel Silverstein? Most people remember him for his books and drawings, but Shel wrote a TON of popular songs for lots of artists back in the day.
In that context, the lyrics of the song make absolute perfect sense. How could it be anyone else but that smartass?

Illahee no offense,but your taste of music is bush! These guys are like every other ball less sensitve woke pigeon millenia crap fodder for the masses,no testosterone and absolutely no hair to the guitar ,no balls and energy. I remember when music actully got you pussy,not made you one. I'm just teasing ya,that was great. Whatever
Your taste in music seems to be in your mouth. Hope this helps.
On a real note,there are few modern acts that intrigue me too much,and the era of the 60's and even 50's to the early 2000's have so many acts I could never discover them all anyway ,is enough to keep it fresh and busy for me. I did recently discover these 3,from Texas,playing Isley brothers influenced Thai Funk with a psychedelic twist. Plus the bass player looks pretty nice to me . Good decent tasteful guitar player ,and the drummer is a human metronome.
It's a bit mellow to be driving music ,as I like to be invigorated on those long ass drives north to salmon and steelhead fish. But as far as lately I have been checking out Delaney and Bonnie,Tormenter,Tommy Bolin and Purple,and lots of 80s metal because it reminds me of a time when life was simpler,people seemed to be having more fun,and I could tell dirty jokes without being cancelled out. I agree my tastes must be in my mouth as you put it,because Miles Davis to Thelonius,Return to Forever and Weather Report,Dark Angel to Darkthrone,Zappa ZZ Top and the Beastie Boys,Tribe called Quest and The Who,Santana to Slayer,and Waylon to Roky Erickson,Moby Grape,and Creedence to COC and Trouble,to Sabbath and Linda Ronstadt,EmmyLou Harris,and Buckethead are too limited right?
