Right on, man... I'm with you. Specifically I start the playlist with Orchid leading into Lord of this World, then NIB, Sleeping Village, Children of the Grave, then After Forever.. Usually I skip on to Megadeth or Metallica, Joe Satriani and other "WAKE UP" music..
Once I'm good and awake I like to switch to rap, starting with some Cyprus Hill, Warren G, Dre and some o dem brothas from the LBC.. Throw in some of that new white rapper guy that's not vanilla ice..
Slide straight outta that into Sublime, Cat Stevens, Pearl Jams "Yellow Leadbetter", BTO, BOC, Uriah Heap, Ten Years After etc..
This kinda stuff:
I tend to be a bit eclectic.. (or eccentric, depends on who you ask) no one so far has listed anything I dislike...
When I was younger a buddy of mine would drive to the lake to go crappie fishing, jammin out to the old single "Natural One" by Folk Implosion.. Hearing that song always makes me check for "crappie thumb"...
