Title: GnR ultimate driving CD compilation, what would yours be? Post by: wight gunner on August 18, 2011, 03:07:02 PM Do you guys find, as I do, that when driving, some songs just switch me on and make driving around with the stereo blasting absolutely the best way to hear your favorite band?
Yesterday, travelling back from work (about 30 minutes away) I played "Coma" 3 times and then though fuck it, and drove past my house and listened to once again ;D that was the best drive ever, yet I do the same journey 5 days a week. This got me thinking, of all the studio tracks available, and to fit on a CD (thus 74minutes) , what would be your "Ultimate" Guns n Roses driving CD that could be made? I'm working mine out at the moment and will post it up in a day or two. I know people hook up their MP3 player and can do longer (indefinite) albums but that would be too easy....

GREAT idea for a thread! Without figuring out actual running times fitting onto an 80 minute CD, I'd say the following tracklist off the top of my head: Right Next Door To Hell Welcome To The Jungle Better Paradise City Locomotive Bad Apples You're Crazy (GN'R Lies version) Scraped Double Talkin' Jive Pretty Tied Up There Was A Time Coma CAUTION: You WILL get a speeding ticket if you make that compliation CD :hihi: Title: Re: GnR ultimate driving CD compilation, what would yours be?

I would add those for sure as long as they fit on a CD. Both are excellent driving songs. Title: Re: GnR ultimate driving CD compilation, what would yours be? Post by: Verasa on August 18, 2011, 07:41:22 PM Locomotive

Title: Re: GnR ultimate driving CD compilation, what would yours be? Post by: russtcb on August 19, 2011, 08:22:40 AM No love for Nightrain on a driving CD? Hmm. If I could work it in time wise, I would throw one from 2006 or 2007 on there. Title: Re: GnR ultimate driving CD compilation, what would yours be? Post by: AxlReznor on August 19, 2011, 08:48:56 AM I haven't tested this to make sure it fits on a CD yet... I may have to make some edits:
Welcome To The Jungle Nice Boys Shackler's Revenge Attitude Live And Let Die Pretty Tied Up Better Move To The City Dust N' Bones New Rose Bad Apples Locomotive Chinese Democracy Garden Of Eden You Could Be Mine Human Being Nightrain Paradise City Title: Re: GnR ultimate driving CD compilation, what would yours be? Post by: Ericnor on August 19, 2011, 10:57:59 AM Nice thread. Funny though, how different in opinion one can be on picking songs.
These would have been on my cd, no more, no less, and in this order: Welcome to the Jungle Rocket Queen Ain't It Fun Civil War Locomotive Coma Nightrain Estranged Perfect Crime Shadow Of Your Love Double Talkin (with the speakers maxed out on the guitarsolo at the end there... thus ending the ride) -Eirik Title: Re: GnR ultimate driving CD compilation, what would yours be? Post by: Verasa on August 19, 2011, 11:18:42 AM Nice to see some "Spaghetti Incident" songs on the list. Always been one of my faves and very underrated imho.

Post by: wight gunner on August 20, 2011, 08:07:30 AM From the Jungle to Paradise. Even got a title ;D
1. Welcome to the Jungle 2. Its so Easy 3. Out to get me. 4. You're Crazy (Lies version) 5. You could be Mine. 6. New Rose. 7. Madagasca 8. Civil War 9. There was a Time 10. One in a Million. (If I could squeeze one more, Nice Boys in here) 11. Coma 12. Nightrain 13. Paradise City. Title: Re: GnR ultimate driving CD compilation, what would yours be? Post by: russtcb on August 21, 2011, 03:44:56 PM Made the mix I posted for the drive out to see The Chris Robinson Brotherhood the other night.
A) The CD was PERFECT for fast driving B) It put me in the COMPLETELY wrong mood for a laid back southern rock show. :hihi: Title: Re: GnR ultimate driving CD compilation, what would yours be? Post by: One.In.A.Million on August 21, 2011, 04:06:00 PM There are many good lists on here, so I won't post another...
But, I would definitely have to have Welcome To The Jungle, Scraped, Riad And The Beduins and Paradise City on mine. In fact those 4 songs would make a killer 15 minute drive CD... And I think you'd get more than a speeding ticket with that combination...... I can imagine just as Rons Riad solo kicks in, thinking you was invincible....taking over cars, doing handbrake turns and thinking your the king of the highway. ;D Title: Re: GnR ultimate driving CD compilation, what would yours be?
