Topic: What is in your car cd player right now? Is it what you play?

Do you play what you listen to. I play in a hard rock band. While driving in my truck this morning I had THE MANHATTEN TRANSFER in the cd player.Usually I have Leonard Cohen in the player. I don`t play any of these with a band. On my own time I do. What do you play on your time? Is it what is in your car right now?

SRV, but I'm not good enough to play any of his music.

I don't often use the CD player in my truck.  I have a few CD's produced by friends playing their own music in the truck.  When I forget my iPod I usually play one of those.

My Jeeps radio hasn't been turned on in months smile I never listen to music while driving. I like to hear the roar of the engine and tires smile

Re: What is in your car cd player right now? Is it what you play?

I have to take my 8 year old son to school every morning so in my cd player is a cd that I put together for him. Some things on it I play. It's about 1/2 kids stuff(veggietales, worship songs from camps he's gone to, and a few from animated movies he likes) and 1/2 my stuff(Beach Boys, CCR, Queen, Elvis, Tom Petty, The Who). He digs my stuff!!!!

Re: What is in your car cd player right now? Is it what you play?

I have a fairly limited collection of cd's but invariably I end up with an Alice in Chains Cd in the player. Been an AIC fan for about 20 years, most of the songs I know how to play are AIC so I listen to them alot.

Re: What is in your car cd player right now? Is it what you play?

The hubster has my car these days.  Generally when I go somewhere I blare the radio (usually a country channel), unless the kids are with me, then I often have no choice but to listen to the Justin Beber CD over... and over... and over... and over...  roll

Art and beauty are in the eyes of the beholder.
What constitutes excellent music is in the ears of the listener.

Re: What is in your car cd player right now? Is it what you play?

I usually have a CD in my truck of recorded tunes of mine so I can listen and critique myself.  My sons have accused me a being full of myself, but it often seems the best way for me to be objective about what I have recorded and figure out where to do things different.  Oh well, that is just me being me!

Find a Path or Make One    This is a motto I have been following my entire life and one I am currently using with my music.

Re: What is in your car cd player right now? Is it what you play?

I have an unusual combination of Mike Marshall's "Gator Bait," and a shiny US nickle, placed there by my son in an experimental effort to see if the the CD player would emanate Thomas Jefferson singing along.

Needless to say, Gator Bait is stuck in the player, and has been for some time.  Good thing I like that disk.

The other car has integrated bluetooth so I play music directly through my mobile phone. I don't think we've ever used the CD player.

Someday we'll win this thing...

Re: What is in your car cd player right now? Is it what you play?

I'm kinda like you Jerome and don't play cds. But not exactly for the same reason. LOL, I drive an old Jeep - before the 'modern' age of cds. So it plays cassetts. Luckily, the Jeep came with about 5 tapes (Kenny Chesney, Brad Paisley, Lone Star, etc.), but unluckily the tape player is broke sad. So I'm stuck with the radio, which is okay, but it only plays one station - and it's definitely not my favorite station... *Sigh* So I just sing. smile

Re: What is in your car cd player right now? Is it what you play?

I had a truck like that Auxi.  It wouldn't play the tapes.  Just spit them back out.  The radio would turn itself on from time to time.  It wouldn't matter what station I had programmed the last time it had played, when it turned itself on it would play a Country station.  It was a Ford truck used primarily to get my canoe to the river or bikes to the trail, so pretty much any other kind of music would have been inappropriate anyway.

Re: What is in your car cd player right now? Is it what you play?

Haha, Zurf! It's a problem. My radio cut on one time playing Country Boy - Alan Jackson - clear as a whistle. But it only kept playing for like an hour. sad Thought about getting a new radio. Still may. Anyway, if I did have a cd in my car it'd probably be some Martina McBride or Lauren Alaina, or a new fav, Eden's Edge.

Re: What is in your car cd player right now? Is it what you play?

I had an '97 Mazda that had no radio at all.  Just a blank plate where it would normally go. Five speed manual, vynl bench seats....  I'd spend an hour in silence on the way into work, and another hour in silence on the way back.

I loved that truck.
