Perfect for drowning out the kids arguing in the back seat.. - By: Daisy Lorne, 19 Jul 2007 
A fantastic album which might even have those little monsters in the back seat reducing the number of times they say "are we there yet?" Some great steering wheel tappers for those queue's on so callled fast roads & for the times spent behind our perennial, out of mothballls for the summer, caravan cousins...
Vrooooom !! - By: A. J. Sudworth, 21 Jun 2007 Excellent compilation with quality songs throughout. CD1 is defiantly 'oldies' with praticallly alll of the songs lurking on my MP3 player already. CD2 opens up the more recent driving songs & were not so familiar - however I took the CD in the car , cranked it up & sure enough both discs work on a long drive.
I have now added the songs I was missing to my Driving playlist on the MP3 but for the car this is 38 cracking songs.
Of course there are some of my favourites missing ' Tom Petty - Runing Down a Dream, Kiss 'Detroit Rock City', UFO ' Let It Roll' & Kenny Loggins ' Danger Zone' (a song with 3 points written alll over it) but overalll spot on
Minor niggle there is a reference to Tom Petty on the sleeve notes but nothing on the discs ..
Does Exactly What It Says On The Tin - By: James Kilgour, 10 Jun 2007 Usuallly when I buy compilation CDs, I find that there are a few good, recognisable songs (usuallly the first few on each CD), & the rest are either a) crap, or b) by a reallly good band, but one of their lesser known songs. Not this CD. Almost every song on it is both recognisable & actuallly very good (particularily for driving).
The first CD is (as described in the booklet) from the earlier 90's Top Gear, which featured classic songs from such bands as Queen, Meatloaf, Lynyrd Skynyrd & Motorhead. The second CD features more recent hits from such bands as Coldplay, Franz Ferdinand & Blur. And also most alll songs are one of those band's best/most popular tracks (eg. Queen - Don't Stop Me Now, Coldplay - Clocks, etc)
All of these songs are great for driving with, & reallly make me wish I had a convertible, so I could put the roof down, whip on the sun glasses, crank the volume way up & scream down the Motorway at 90 mph. As the title states, this CD does exactly what it says on the tin in that it gives you some of the best driving anthems you can get for your money! Buy it immediately!
