paul connor Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 odd question... but what song do you listen to (if you have the luxury of a wireless in the ol' beast) or what would you think was best linked? I think the one that springs to my mind would have to be "one step beyond-madness" not sure why..... prob because a Humber aint the quickest... sounds good on those uphill struggles!

Richard Farrant Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 odd question... but what song ..... would you think was best linked? In my Bedford QL, it would have to be "Convoy" by CW McCall.......because when you look in the mirror, you would say "we got us a convooyy" Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Grosvenor Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 I too would have "Convoy" for the Militant, a two mile convoy (read tail back) is my current record! :twisted: "There's nowhere to pull over on the A47 officer." :oops: But when the Howitzer is opening up into firing position the theme from "Thunderbirds" is spot on!

Jack Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Good question Paul. Don't think that it has a sound track but Duel with Dennis Weaver, as when I am following my wife in the GMC and I get a bit to close to her she panic's as I don't know if you have noticed but you can never seen anyone driving a GMC as the light reflects of the windscreen.......very intimidating! :twisted: Jack.

fv1609 Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 The only music I want to hear in the pig is the sound of the engine that is still running, particiular when I am in the middle lane of the M27. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fv1609 Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Well actually I was thinking of "Waltz for a Pig", because this is nearly what happened on the way to Overlord. But some of you are far too young to have head of "Waltz for a Pig". It was the B side of later versions of "Substitute" by The Who. There were contractual wranglings between Reaction & Brunswick I think. The original B side was "Instant Party" (but this was actually a different version of "Circles" that was on the "Ready Steady Who" EP) http://www.45-rpm.org.uk/dirw/who.htm Anyway this is all showing my age. The most horrifing sound in the Pig this year was on the M27 in the middle lane trying to get into the inside lane to turn off to the Denmead Show. It was the sound of the B60 going at 4,000rpm as the carb spindle jammed. My nearside mirror had been blown out of vision by the velocity of travel, I had to barge my way in, braking by foot & handbrake into the hard shoulder to nearly roll down the embankment & kill the ignition. A "foolish person" had pulled in front to the hard shoulder to have a chat on his mobile. I was very shaken, frightened (nearest near-death experience I have had) & bloody angry as I went to exchange nicities with the "foolish person" he sped off very quickly.

Nick Bombini Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 I guess I would have to choose "Long Time" by Boston. An excerpt from the song "Well, I'm taking my time I'm just moving on..." This goes great with my truck (and the jeep for that matter) because they go so darned slow. But then that is some of the fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddball Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Need you ask? "Burning Bridges" by The Mike Curb Congregation or "All for the Love of Sunshine" by Hank Williams Jr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mick garner Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 Hi all I know this is a real late message guys but I think that Saxons rocker 'Wheels of Steel' would probably be a good soundtrack, but even if I did have that luxury of having a wireless there would be no way I'd be able to hear it over the rumble of the ferrets B60 or the whine of the transmision! Thanks, Mick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 I am surprised that no one has mentioned this before :shock: but one song that comes to mind is MONEY by Pink Floyd.... :cry: :cry: :shock: :? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 Hmmm - given the Stalwarts tendencies to go anywhere at any time - despite the intentions of the driver I'd have plumped for "Die Valkerie" too!! Mind you - given the afinity the beasties have for filling stations and tracta joints/bevel boxes maybe the Flying Lizards "I want Money" would be more appropriate???

Jessie The Jeep Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 How about these as possible associations with vehicles...... Bang Bang - B.A. Robertson Oliver's Army - Elvis Costello But for my jeep right now...... In The Garage - Weezer .......because I'm painting out the engine bay.

Jack Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 .......in that case Steve, for, me, it has to be 'lady in red' by Chris de burgh, no smart comments please :twisted: :evil: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
