Overlanding Music?

This song gets played at least once on every trip. It's my theme song. It's about waking up on Tuesday morning after a weekend in the outback and daydreaming about being back there. Ray used this song on the the aerial video he took at the DRV this year.



Here is Ray's video:

Oh yeah, this song has Mojoe!

This is my FAVORITE POST!!!! If more people cared, there would be no need for these cleanups. Thank you!!!!! We hold these around our hiking trails. "Leave no Trace"
 
I'm an oddball as I usually tune into the local NPR station for classical music, news and programs and local content. You never know what you will get, sometimes the information on local events is worth it. And Sunday it was 5 hours of blues for the campfire :)
 
Found a new album while listening to NPR making dinner one night. Boo Boo Davis "What kind of shit is that" Blues redubbed, my new trail favorite.
 
A little of everything but mostly jam bands with some jazz and chill music like the Cafe del Mar albums.
 
Driving I listen sometimes, in camp, I don't recall ever listening, other than I used to like a Carlos Nakai tape Canyon Trilogy (?), I think, when going to sleep. I rarely heard the end of it.

I started this thread thinking about driving. The only music I like in camp is music someone plays on a guitar or similar. Boom boxes in camp are a big pet peeve of mine. However when I've noticed such things it is usually really obnoxious camp neighbors so the boom box is one issue of many. As the kids get older we'll start staying away from some campgrounds, then problem solved.
 
While going to or from and on pavement it is. Old time radio, Grateful Dead and Texas Swing. Once the tires hit the dirt it is the sounds of nature and vehicle.
 
In camp, nothing.
Driving off road, bluegrass, southern rock, real country (not the crap on the radio), etc... I've found that lighter stuff like country and bluegrass calm me down which in turn slows me down. My inner desert racer tries to come out once in a while and a suburban full of camping gear and dogs is not the place for that to be happening.

In the garage, METAL!
 
the local NPR station . . . This Sunday it was 5 hours of blues for the campfire :)

Every Sunday night, actually. Then lowdown blues. So good.

Rolling into camp in the dark, I've come to enjoy Gregory Alan Isakov. He's like Mumford and Sons without being so mainstream. It's delicate, folksy music, like a gentle rain on a cabin roof in the middle of the night.

An example:

This, coming from a guy who also enjoys Slayer, Dr Dre, Vivaldi, Credence, and lately, Lion Fiyah...
