MG ZR ZS ZT Technical - music to drive to

The sound of the V6 in a ZS180 is music to my ears but I wonder what peoples favourite tracks are when driving?
My favourites (being a 40 something) are:
Highway Star by Deep Purple
Fireball by Deep Purple
My Generation (The Who)
And when stuck behind a Ford - Who let the dogs out.

I sometimes listen to tracks that evoke feelings about MGR and driving them.

X80 - You ain't seen nothing yet (BTO)

Gatso - Radar Love (Golden Earing)

The open road - Blowing Free (Wishbone Ash)
- Race with the Devil
(Girlschool)
and finally

Megas Comments - Paranoid (Black Sabbath)


only joking!!!

Some of my favourites:

I just took a ride ...... in my "Silver Machine" (superb drumming)

"Everybody needs somebody" to love: early Rolling Sones

"Somethin' Else" Eddie Cochran - "But right now I cant afford the gas, a brand new convertible is outa ma class" ... Known that feeling well ..... :)

And my favourite favourites: "Wont get fooled again" - "Baba O'Reilly" : Both by "The Who" ......

"Johnny B. Goode" Chuck Berry "listen to the rhythm that the drivers made .... "

There's plenty of others too - but they'll do for now .... go easy tho' .... that music is the stuff points on your licence are made of ...... :-)

Showing age bit true but whaddya mean stuck in the mid-70's? My selections all considerably (lurve that word)pre-date that with one possible exception ..... Silver Machine!

Keep them MGs rocking ...... :)

Ok Clever Dick 180!

August 1971 eh? .... Yes, so exactly as I said .... "pre-dates the MID-70s" ... I have both mono and stereo version of "Who's Next" plus their fine double album ....

Mr Nutter: "I dont wanna cause no fuss, but can I ride your Magic Bus" .. that is if it's a ZS180 ..... "Magic Bus" another favourite .... great stuff. It wasn't just stones and beetles back then was it?

Worth repeating: MGs rock so do keep em Rocking ...... :)
John McFeely

ps i might own a ZT 180 autosport :)
