top five driving albums

paybacks - knock loud
detroit cobras - mink rat or rabbit
booker t and the mg's - soul dressing
impala - teeanage tupelo soundtrack
bill hicks - relentless

i don't know if those are really driving albums, but those are 5 i would have to take with.

dead can dance-spiritchaser(desert)
boards of canada-geogaddi(early morning+late night)
happy mondays-pills thrills n bellyaches
future sound of london-isdn(spooooooky)
bjork-vespertine(post breakup)

of course, these are not well informed choices since i do not drive, but if i did...
