i dont know about the whole album thing...
The Minutemen and Husker Du are, I've found, perfect driving music.

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Damn the Torpedoes

she prob wouldnt be into minutemen, husker du, sonic youth, or my bloody valentine but red house painters, wilco, and the pixies are good calls. maybe i'd do surfer rosa though. and songs for a blue guitar. i havent actually heard st. geronimo but i think songs for a blue guitar would be better than ocean beach
edit oooooh damn the torpedoes thats a good one.

surfer rosa sucks
i would go with it was hot we stayed in the water or mount eerie by the microphones. and the sunset tree by the mountain goats is good driving music too

Add some early Pavement, and that mix just might become the messiah.

no i dissagree that mix kinda sucks. it lacks variety and is kind of short.

Samus is my senorita numero uno for N64 smash.I play exclusively as Kirby. I wouldn't know what to do as anybody else. jump jump jump jump jump jump jump, turn into a brick.
