Brian Fishburn Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Whose version do you consider the REAL one? I'm still going with Steve Miller's version. At your urging (because some of the best music in the world is stuff out of the mainstream that your friends point you to), I did find the El Rayo X version, and it's good. I just still prefer Steve Miller's. A former co-worker brought me in some CD's he burned of some obscure Rockabilly/Psychobilly music. There's some great car songs there, but he didn't label the discs with the artists, and he no longer is a co-worker. So, I have some great car songs that I don't know the artist, and have only educated guesses as to the song titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaronw Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Most of the I was going to list have been listed but there are a few I didn't see Cars - Gary Newman Down Payment Blues - AC/DC Roll me away - Bob Segar Fire lake - Bob Segar Heard it on the X - ZZ Top (ok so its a song about radio but cars and radio just go together in my mind) I'm Bad, I'm Nationwide - ZZ Top Trashed - Black Sabbath Jerry was a racecar driver - Primus Bucket T - The Who And if you can find some of those cool SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY clips they would be neat to slip in here and there between the music, I've looked all over the internet and can't find any.

lordairgtar Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 (edited) Most of the I was going to list have been listed but there are a few I didn't see Bucket T - The Who Listen to all three versions, originally released by The Daytonas in 64, then J&D in 66, followed by the Who in 66 The Who http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdG8JG8EO3U Jan and Dean http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O04lvwUi5tA Ronnie And The Daytonas Edited June 4, 2008 by lordairgtar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaronw Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 (edited) I kind of figured the Who version was a cover, how many British kids are going to find a Model T in Tennessee? Funny how many of the classic British bands did covers from other bands in the beginning before the labels would let them cover their own material. Remebered another one Blue Chevrolet - The Beat Farmers Edited June 5, 2008 by Aaronw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Hall Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 (edited) There are so many Bruce Springsteen songs that mention cars, or or automotive-themed, that they could almost take up an entire thread by themselves! Here's a few that haven't been mentioned yet ... I love all of those..to the Boss list I'll add 'The Promise'....a Challenger is mentioned in the storyline...love the song...off of the 18 Tracks CD.
