You mean Paul is crying because I left him off my list? ;D Well, that song is great if you drive a clutch, but I've got an automatic transmission. Whatever that means.

We made the trip to Ottawa listening to OPL, WMC, Muswell Hillbillies, Give The People What They Want, Low Budget and everything went very well. I have to admit I got a bit anxious and had a look at my fuel gauge when A Gallon Of Gas started to play.   |

1. Souped Up Ford, Rory Gallagher
2. Running Down a Dream, Tom Petty/Heartbreakers
3. I'm a Roadrunner, Baby, Junior Walker and the All-Stars
4. Got to Get You Into My Life, Beatles
5. Highway 61 Revisited, Johnny Winter (live version)
I like the tune 'Driving' on Arthur, but I like to go fast and these work better. And then there are those Motorway loos...

Why is it that I get scared when I think Ray is about to get behind the wheel of an automobile?  |

Really get into Misfits while driving. Also, we had a tape, courtesy of WXRT, of a Kinks show at the Riviera, in the Eighties, that we just wore out, on a cross-country drive.
Honorable mention to Fun, Fun, Fun, and Shut Down by The Beach Boys,
Drag City and Dead Mans Curve by Jan and Dean,
and Little Honda by The Hondells.

Apart from the aforementioned Jonathan Richmond song, I like Chuck Berry's No Money Down. The Dave Edmunds version of the song isn't too bad, either.
