Tonights music

First tune on my MP3 in the new car:

It bodes well.

One of the best things in cars now is having a USB port. I've had mine about a year, & I've got a 32GB memory stick loaded with music & I just let it roll on random. Loads of reggae, 80s indie stuff and all sorts of other things. About 10% I don't even recognise, even though it's all stuff ripped from my own music collection. Pulled into work this morning to "2 pints of lager & a packet of crisps" at high volume. No shame, me.

Quality. That's what it's all about. Though I notice that on mine, it always seems to be that the closer I get to a cosmopolitan area, where I might be feeling a bit more self-conscious, with music blaring out of the open windows, that's when something 'cool' will segue into Wayne Newton, or Doris Day, Sheena Easton, or some other guilty pleasure.

True, particularly in warm weather when I've got the windows open. For some reason the one time that doesn't seem to apply is that every Wednesday as I roll into the car park for the Helsby RC training run, I seem to get a pretty cool reggae dub track with some serious bass. Now I've said that out loud, I'm going to get the Chipmunks doing Alvin's Harmonica tonight aren't I?

Haha! You'll have to let us know what it was.

The winning streak continues. Seriously uncool stuff all the way there & back: dodgy indie tracks & 2 poor reggae tracks. On the way into the car park: Let's Face the Music and Dance by Jackie McLean, which is a seriously cool jazz track. Result. Bring on next week.

Pride comes before the fall.

it's a bit niche, but I have on 'laughing stock' by talk talk

the same talk talk that did 'life's what you make it' - but a lot more 'out there'
