Zep, Sabbath, John Lee Hooker, Van Halen, Rush, and whatever else grabs my attention that day.

Stevie Ray is the snizitz. In the car I don't listen to much but the motor. On the boat or in the truck, I am with you, Metalica, AC/DC, Creed, GodSmack, but once in a while I listen to Country. So I am all over the place

I'm with Frank I have not had a radio in any of my toys until recently. I get worried about the lead foot when a tune comes on that reminds of younger days when life was, well, less stressful and we were all indestructible.

I like a great guitarist. Stevie Ray, Clapton, Duane Allman, Kenny Wayne, Hendrix, Jeff Beck, Brian Setzer and of course great bands - Skynyrd, Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, basically the blues, Southern Rock and anything else incredible from the 60's-70's.

Music today sucks. It's all about the nookie and dancing. I like music that tells stories and can be appreciated for the musical abilities of the players without needing computer enhancements.

If you like Stevie Ray Vaughn, you probably like Kenny Wayne Shepard. At the moment I have 3 days grace, hinder (hometown boys) and nickleback in the car. I listen to most anything but rap crap.

Hmm, in my changer now, SRV greatest hits disc 1 & 3, SRV & Albert King, Elvis greatest hits (dunno which disc), Metallica Master of Puppets & Hank Jr box disc 3. Is that enough of a difference!?!? LOL!
The SRV & Albert King is one of my fav's.

Josh...sounds like you need to join the satellite radio movement. Since I did about 2 years ago, my friends and I have discovered a whole plethora of bands that terrestrial radio won't play because the band members might be older or aren't pretty enough for the major labels. Some of the great bands I have discovered and am now addicted to are; Wilco, My Morning Jacket, Built To Spill, The New Pornographers, Death Cab For Cutie, Gomez, Modest Mouse, The Twilight Singers, Beta Band....I could go on and on and on. I don't ever listen to terrestrial radio anymore unless it's Sports Radio or I'm listening to a football, basketball, or hockey game. Josh if you're into southern rock/zeppelin stuff, definitely check out My Morning Jacket. Those guys are absolutely amazing. Wilco brings down the house too. I've seen them in concert 3 times already in the past 2 years and they are by far one of my all-time favorite bands now.

Satellite radio rules.

Sepultura, Megadeth , Pantera and Metallica. Van Halen is fun too sometimes.

Thanks! I always thought I was born 15 years too soon. I guess hacking away on a computer all day (i am a programmer) has soured my taste of technology and most things modern. I like things that are from when our culture was really coming into it's own, developing its own style. Old cars, music, etc...

I also forgot 2 other favorites! David Bowie (the coolest white guy ever to live) and CCR. :twothumbs

I have been debating Satellite for a while now. I live 45 minutes from work and no one plays music in the mornign anymore. Only annoying morning zoo shows. Death Cab for Cutie is almost bordering on mainstream. Some of the mainstream rock stations have been playing them for a while.

I like My Morning Jacket. I always thought they sounded like cross between The Greatfull Dead and Pink Floyd. Very mello and easy to listen to.

On the obscurity scale, this album has to be towards the top, but what a great album it is. Some of you might be interested in it. You can't buy it anymore (that I know of), except used on Amazon:

Great list there. I'm a huge fan of The Clash. "London Calling" is probably the greatest rock record in history. I got a lot of that old-school hardcore on my Ipod too. Negative Approach, Necros, Minor Threat, UK Subs, 7 Seconds, SS Decontrol. I still love all that stuff.

I picked up a Siruis a few years ago and haven't looked back since. The diversity of the music played on the satellite is unreal. Bands I've picked up lately... Non-Point, Wolfmother, Priestess, 311, Ill Scarlet the list goes on... On the Canadian side we've got Colin James, Tragically Hip, Big Sugar, Nickleback, Theory of a Deadman, local boys Murder City Sparrows... and if you like good guitar pickin look into Grady. Gordie Johnson used to be the frontman for Big Sugar. Now he's playing outta Austin Texas and makes some killer stuff.... Check it all out guys...

But no one has gave props to Trent so I must throw Nine Inch Nails in there! Damn I love driving fast to that stuff!

Scmoov, it sounds like you need to check out Gary Moore. Im also a big 6-stringer fan, and even though I had several of his CDs, I didnt fully appreciate his talent til a friend gave me a couple of his concerts to watch, one of which features Albert Collins and Albert King (I think it was filmed in the late 80s or early 90s). He is quite amazing, to say the least....

Sepultura, Megadeth , Pantera and Metallica. Van Halen is fun too sometimes.

Just read yesterday that Van Halen is re-uniting with THE FRONTMAN to end all frontmen, David Lee Roth, for a 40 date tour. The reunion won't include however, Michael Anthony. It looks like Eddie's son, Wolfgang, will fill in on bass. I'll miss MIchael Anthony and his axe, but :headbang: WOOHOO! It's about EFFIN' time!!!

NO MICHAEL ANTHONY????!!!!!!

That guy's voice is what MADE Van Halen. What are they going to do without his high vocal harmonies?

Hell, no Michael Anthony? It ain't worth it in my book. I'm staying home for this one.

I had not heard of him, I will have to check it out. Thanks!
