    It's so bad that it's good, @Old dumb arse. Plus it's the first movie in the history of American movie-making that explicitly depicted drug use. So you can watch it for the "historical value". ;)

    Yeah, Judd, one is difficult. So, if we're not gonna limit it, I have a few more myself. ;):joy:

    This band may not be familiar to most (or any!) of you but they are a fave of Mr. Sandi and me. We've seen them many times at Las Vegas Bike Fest, Cave Creek Bike Fest, and Sturgis. I always request this song when we see them live and it plays well in my head when I'm riding. :cool:

    ZZ Top's "La Grange"

    One more song with video (Easy Rider clip again) that captures how I feel when I'm cruisin' along at 85 mph on the wide open ribbon-like backroads on my Harley. In fact, I've been on some of the roads through Monument Valley that are in this video.

    I googled that and it came up with some lovely classical music, is this it?

    Yep, Judd, I'm with you.:) Any rock song with a good riff, my leather jacket, and my Street Glide (which lends itself more to the rock vibe than does my Speed Triple). :cool:

    My iTunes "Motorcycle Playlist" includes all of the songs on your list except for Freewheel Burning--I may need to add that one. In addition to your picks, I've also got a bunch of ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Aerosmith, Bad Company, Dire Straits, Golden Earring, Santana, Los Lobos, and Tom Petty in the mix.

    Wow, that's a lot more than ONE!! But the one song that best captures how I FEEL when I'm riding is still my original James Brown pick.:D:heart:

    Anything but Meatloaf, I had a noisy neighbour many years ago that used to blast Bat out of Hell through the walls all night long, and I've hated the fat bastid ever since.:)

    Love that Bob Seger song and video, Don. I haven't heard that song in a long, long time. :)

    Love “Black Betty”, MyEvilTwin! The band in the video in my post #31 in this thread, The Garage Boys, do a great cover of it. It's one of the songs I request every time we see them play at the rallies they work--Laughlin River Run, Cave Creek Bike Week, Sturgis.
