Your favorite tunes to listen to on the trail?

[jthue]

When you are on the trail who do you love to listen to and jam to the most? I love to find all types of new tunes so please share.

I enjoy Tesla, Led Zeppelin, Royal Bliss, Eric Clapton, etc. the most. Especially in the mountains! My first appalachian trail experience will be this year and I can't wait to crank them up there

johnney thunder does a wicked "im on a boat"
wakapak has a few screems i like.
once baltimore jacks snoring covered the sounds of a guy pukeing.

Volbeat......

[kayak karl]

Tull, Bowie, Bruce, Southside, Thorogood; need more....

[Papa D]

Wilco, Son Volt, Old Crow Medicine Shoe, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Tom Waits, Jayhawks, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Greatful Dead, Yonder Mountain String Band, Widespread Panic, Steve Earle, Old 97s, Scud Mountain Boys ..... golly, there's a whole bunch more on my little I-Pod Mini.
There might be nothing better than hiking 20 miles, eating a bowl of mac n cheese, another bowl of something, a shot of rum and my i-pod mini in a tent somewhere cool.

For the first time ever I will be taking my ipod with me in September. I'll be hiking alone the first week until I meet up with a friend for an additional two weeks of hiking. I thought it might be nice to have my run tunes along with me. So when the going gets tough I will be listening to Big Girls don't cry, tighten up, Do it well, run on , move along and seven day fool. Just to get me through the tough times of course. And then my Ipod runs the gammett from classical to eminem

I never bring an electronic music device along. I do, though, sing to myself sometimes when I'm hiking alone (I never inflict this on anyone else I might be hiking with -- only alone). I did this spontaneously a couple hours into the very first day on my very first backpacking trip. A Neil Young song, it was. It's hard to generalize, though, about what songs are likely to pop into my head.

Some people use bearbells. I sing to let the wildlife know I'm around.

And it's comforting, somehow.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions, I'll check 'em out!

Papa D and music man, I couldn't agree more with Neil Young. Thats the ultimate mountain music.

Anyone know some real good bluegrass groups? Thats a whole new genre for me, but I'd like to get into the good stuff.

[Trailbender]

I generally listen to black metal, usually most people have never heard of it.

[BradMT]

I never would have thought people go to the mountains to walk then plug in their brains to an ipod.

To each his own but I'm amazed...

I have all the eclectic music I could ever want to listen to in the comfort of my home. I don’t go on the trail, or in the wilderness for that matter, to listen to music.
