Top 10 Aviation Tunes. Whats Yours?

[JasonF SA]

Hey Folks,

There is so much in life that we mortals can relate music too, and i think it was "Plato" who said "Music gives a soul to The Universe, Wings to the mind, Flight to the Imagination and life to everything" 

So here is my question. What are you're "Top 10" tunes you Commit Aviation too? What have  you got playing in the background of your hangar while you wash the dust off aircraft or swing spanners too while working on your (Dare I Say It) Auster rebuild project?

This is my list in no particular Order... 

1) Lenny Kravitz – Fly Away.
 


2) Don Henley – The Boys of Summer



3) Spider Bait – Black Betty



4) Creedence Clearwater Revival – Fortunate Son
  


5) AWOLNATION – Sail



6) The Black Crowes - Hard To Handle  



7) Metallica – Whiskey In The Jar
 


8) Royal Blood – Ten Tonne Skeleton



9) Muse – Supermassive Black Hole
 


10) Bruce Hornsby & The Range – The Way It Is




Of course there are a whole lot more that can be added to the list, So what are yours? Maybe we could put an Aviation CD together of the most popular songs, and put proceeds towards an Aviation Heritage Project or something?

 Just thinking out loud...

Dave, you were born in the wrong era...!

[baronbeeza]

Why does that remind me of something I watched about a week ago ?

[TS]

Sorry but NO hangar would be complete if this was not being played LOAD!!

Like your style, Dave.
That's how I see (and hear) history.

Just had to look some of this music up as it had me thinking.
Came across this site which covers almost all the years, - although it may be a little new for some here !

If you were to chose a year with the best 5 albums you would buy how would you go ?

I would be thinking somewhere in the 60's or 70's for many of us here.

I know my choice...
