Dreamboat AnnieDreamboat Annie by Heart
Buy new: $11.98 / Used from: $1.09
This would be on my Dad's list as well. It's got a dreamlike quality ("Dreamboat Annie") to some of the songs while others just having that wailing rock sounds ("Magic Man.")
Roll the BonesRoll the Bones by Rush
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $5.10
"We were young, wandering the face of the earth..." I've been a big Rush fan since high school so this album reminds me of getting out of school and just being a teenager.
We Don't Need to WhisperWe Don't Need to Whisper by Angels and Airwaves
Buy new: $13.98 / Used from: $2.54
I just got this album for my birthday and it's been in my car player since I got it.
Beggars BanquetBeggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $9.09
People say you're either a Beatles fan or a Rolling Stones fan. I'm both.
Abbey RoadAbbey Road by The Beatles
Buy new: $11.99 / Used from: $5.73
See?
Left of Self-CenteredLeft of Self-Centered by Butch Walker
Buy used from: $4.49
From the song VH1 uses but no one ever knows about ("My Way") to the feeling of optimism ("Tomorrow") just makes for a happy drive anywhere.
A Momentary Lapse of ReasonA Momentary Lapse of Reason by Pink Floyd
Buy new: $8.97 / Used from: $7.95
Although cars don't come with autopilot, this album will make you feel like you need it.
Brothers in ArmsBrothers in Arms by Dire Straits
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $3.33
Mark Knopfler provides great guitar work and great lyrics. I would always listen to this album while driving through the Catskills so I always associate this album with crisp mountain air.
If I Left the ZooIf I Left the Zoo by Jars of Clay
Buy new: $17.98 / Used from: $0.59
I know, what is a Christian band doing here? Trust me, it brings a sense of nature and being a part of something much bigger.
Pink MoonPink Moon by Nick Drake
Buy new: $18.98 / Used from: $5.63
I would listen to this driving at night, probably not the best thing. His voice and the music is just so mellow. Ever since that VW commercial though, I fell in love with him.
Amanda MarshallAmanda Marshall by Amanda Marshall
Buy used from: $0.01
Granted the lyrics to "Birmingham" aren't really the nicest, it does bring forth that feeling of moving towards something better.
