| | | Top Gear - The Ultimate Driving Experience CDVarious Artists : | This two-CD sampler from the U.K. TV driving show is as much a snapshot of the intensely vital and varied nature of British pop and dance music as it is a soundtrack to choking on car fumes while stuck in city traffic--uh, speeding down the ... Full Descriptionopen highway with the wind streaming through your hair. U.S. garage rockers like the Killers rub shoulders with their Euro counterparts the Hives, while vintage Britpop bands like the Stone Roses and the Charlatans take on 21st-century upstarts like Keane, and prehistoric 1960s rockers Cream are dusted off and given a downtempo techno makeover.
The flagship BBC driving brand is stronger than ever, attracting record TV viewing audiences. The show uses plenty of music and not just dusty old rock anthems. Disc 1 delivers a more contemporary driving soundtrack (Bodyrockers, Razorlight, The Hives, Franz Ferdinand, Snow Patrol, The Killers etc). Switch to Disc 2 and you'll find a more expansive and dramatic soundtrack; cue Rob D, David Holmes, The Orb, Nightmares On Wax and Lemon Jelly. This is an exciting concept for a driving album and sits comfortably in the back seat with the younger, more dynamic hip audience that regularly watches the show.

| | Cat Stevens Tea For The Tillerman CDs (1970) Remastered; Deluxe Edition
Top Gear - The Ultimate Driving Experience music CDs
$21.64 Digitally remastered by Bill Levenson (December 1999, Sterling Sound, New York, New York).
TEA FOR THE TILLERMAN is one of Cat Stevens's finest albums, and a gem in the crown of early 1970s singer/songwriterdom. Stevens manages to have his cake and eat it too, simultaneously achieving pop accessibility and artistic relevance. While inviting rhythms (buoyed by Stevens's dynamic acoustic strumming) and pop hooks abound, the feel is decidedly gentle and spare. Apart from the occasional string section, Stevens is accompanied only by a three-piece band as he sings his introspective lyrics with appreciable fervor.
While there are some relatively conventional love songs here ("Hard Headed Woman," "Wild World"), the most memorable moments come when Stevens's lyrics venture further afield. "Father and ...

Top Gear - The Ultimate Driving Experience songs
$9.45 This is a Hyper CD, which contains regular audio tracks and also provides a link to the artist's website with the help of a web browser.
If possible, AC/DC actually made their sound denser on its sophomore effort, LET THERE BE ROCK. A darker album than its predecessor, HIGH VOLTAGE, this album leans further towards AC/DC's twisted extension in the blues tradition. Which is not to say that the band relented from its three-chord power riffing for one millisecond. The presence of Angus Young's mighty Gibson SG looms over the album like a sheet of lead on a windless day. What has changed is the inclusion of longer songs like "Go Down," "Dog Eat Dog," and the floor rattling "Let There be Rock," all of which feature ripping interplay between Bon Scott's perverse howl and Young's straight for the throat guitar lines.
Where others hint at hormone-driven themes of lust and adolescent rebellion, AC/DC revel ...

Top Gear - The Ultimate Driving Experience album
$14.95 Rootsy singer-songwriter Ray LaMontagne returns with his third album, downplaying the vintage soul vibes of his earlier work in favor of a more idiosyncratic feel rather akin to the sound that Cat Power has achieved with her recent albums. More so than on earlier albums, LaMontagne has toned down the old-fashioned ...
