The "tunes" that is. A great way to sike yourself up. Weather its fishin or huntin, good music makes the trip to the spot more intense. During this time is when everything I know I gota do goes through my head... being in the darkness alone, building confidence ect.

Whats the best album to jam to when ya head to your surf?

Godsmack

SeVendust

Zepplin/Floyd

If I'm fishin with someone else I'm usualy chewing their ears off, so to those who have fished with me this thread doesn't pertain to you.;) what what

Even though I'm not in the surf these days, the 200 watt CD stereo on my fishing machine does nicely !!!!!

Allman Bros--"An Evening With the Allman Bros: Second Set"

IMO a better live album than "Live at the Fillmore East". Tighter, more controlled solos and you really notice how much #^&#^&#^&#^&ey Betts evolved as a musician.

Led Zep, SRV, Floyd, Stones, Police... Don't forget Aerosmith. Nothing like "Sweet Emotion" at 4:00am.

Other stuff from the 90's like STP, Nirvana, Chili Peppers, TSOL, Social Distortion can get the juices flowing. I may need to give Queens of the Stone Age and Audioslave a shot this year.

The drive home is usually a bit lower key. Clapton, Talking Heads, Keith Richards, Bob Marley.

I did find myself driving down the road last fall from watch hill to weekapaug at 3am with Justin Timberlake cranked. I felt like a fool when I realized what I was listening too. Those RI radio stations got to me.

milo--should be in any big record store. Borders, too. It's not a boxed set, so there are two different CDs, First Set (not as good IMO) and Second Set. They're discount priced. I paid $12.99 for each disc.

First Set has such classics as Blue Sky, Melissa, Dreams and Revival.

Second Set really rocks--Sailing 'Cross the Devil's Sea, You Don't Love Me, Soulshine, Back Where It All Began, a nice acoustic Elizabeth Reed, Nobody Left to Run With Anymore, and closes with Jessica.

The 4 survivng original members, plus Warren Haynes on guitar. Recorded at several locations on the 1996 summer tour.

Frampton is one of those tunes that comes on just when you're getting really tired on the way back from fishing, then something like VH Unchained comes on followed, by Ghost in the Machine, Thunder Road, any number of good tunes to keep ya awake. If they don't come on it's time to pull over to a road stop and crash sleep for 20 minutes....

I'm going to need to rip a "driving" CD to keep me awake after fishing :think:

On the way to the beach...anything.

On the way back home after fishing all night with no sleep and I've got a 4.5 hour drive ahead of me and the eyelids are really heavy and I'm starting to weave thru the rumble strips like a drunkard...I crank it up. AC/DC, Black Sabbath (Ozzy/Ronny James Dio/Ian) , Ozzy, Jimi Hendrix, Dead Kennedys, Led Zeppelin. Driving home after a long fishing weekend with "Dazed and Confused" cranked up is a trip man.

Everyone,

This power of music, especially when going or returning from the quest......

I like it all. From the corny ass Rose to the commy ass NPR.

But my absolute, bestest, greatest fishing tune of all is
Taj Mahal's "Fishing Blues". Listen to it. Laugh with it. Sing with it.

I wish I could wire over a copy. I'll work on it.


We fish (and live) in an acoustic enviroment. It is unplugged......... (except for the couple I have at my waist)

P.U. tastes like horse piss when compared to "Budvar Czechvar" (Check-Var) - also from the Czeck Republic. Known everywhere but America as "Budwieser Budvar", been brewed since like 600AD or something. Truly the best pils in the world. We would get it delivered in Germany twice per month by the "Juice Truck" (think milkman) with the rest of our beer - Stuttgarter Hofbrau - plus our juice & warm milk... Mike, if I can find it in Rhode Island - not the best state for beer - you gotta be able to find it on LI. This beer is truly on a far higher level the Pilsner Urqell ....

um hooked? Bass --> ALE is quite good although from britain....
but john and the gang try Belhaven Scottish Ale some time.
It really packs a wallup and tastes awsome. As for music i like pink floyd allot and metally cruise to it often and agree with John.
But for crusing long distance without getting sleepy Z Z top rules.
If i start to experience road rage i tune into wcrb for classical music to remind of the more tranquil times of black and white TV.
But for shakin booty "crystal method" gets my motor running as does some chilly peppers...in fact i built a whole lawyers office in miami on one chilli pepper album played round the clock with 18 hour work days.We drank like thirty beers a day to keep up the pace. Stairway to heaven and peter framptons:"Do you feel like i do" always sends me back to california dreamin. The thing is that music triggers memories. CCR especially reminds me of old times.

Has to the the Who. Can't spend a night without humming Pinball Wizard.

Ever since I was a young boy
I've played the silver ball
From Soho down to Brighton
I must have played them all
But I ain't seen nothing like him
In any amusement hall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball.

He stands like a statue
Becomes part of the machine
Feeling all the bumpers
Always playing clean
He plays by intuition
The digit counters fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball

He's a pinball wizard
There's got to be a twist
A pinball wizard
He's got such a supple wrist

How do you think he does it?
(I don't know)
What makes him so good?

He ain't got no distractions
Can't hear those buzzers and bells
Don't see lights a flashin'
Plays by sense of smell
Always gets a replay
Never tilts at all
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball

I thought I was
The Bally table king
But I just handed
My pinball crown to him

Even on my usual table
He can beat my best
His disciples lead him in
And he just does the rest
He's got crazy flipper fingers
Never seen him fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball
