I know Wilson and I appreciate it.
Did you know Deliverance was actually filmed in Georgia? I think GA owes WVA bigtime!
"It's all good" is an understatement.

Proud Mary, Tina Turna version

have fun (Rollin' on the river!)

[whodey1967]

well I would say that born to be wild would have to be on your list.

Rafting trip?

Dueling Banjos

[xxlt]

Blackwater - The Doobie Brothers
Wipeout - The Ventures

If you like that surf guitar sound (and who doesn't?) do yourself a favor and order "The Velvet Touch of Los Straitjackets" or "Viva Los Straitjackets." You can order from here:
http://www.straitjackets.com/

in their "gracious living" catalogue section. You can also check some audio samples there. They are truly "utterly fantastic and totally unbelievable." All their albums are great.

RIde of the Valkyries - Richard Wagner
Call My Job - Son Seals (Blues classic that is strangely appropriate for this endeavor - "Call my job, tell the boss I won't be in..." - with a wicked guitar)

[xxlt]

The 5:15 - the Who
Born to Run - Bruce Springsteen
Hey Hey, My My - Neil Young
Copperhead Road - Steve Earle

[Who2Dey]

I'm going by what would make a good soundtrack to a whitewater rafting video, and the first song that comes to mind is "Sabotage" by the Beastie Boys....or maybe it's because it is the first song I heard this morning, but it would make for a good vid soundtrack.

Take Me to the River - Talking Heads

My Old Friend - John Hiatt

My old friend
You're just as pretty as you were back then..."

[Brew Crew Grrl]

That's a good list and pretty diverse too, but you broke a golden mix rule: Having a repeat artist on same CD.

Seems more like a Bronze-mix-Rule.

Point taken but I gotta do what Hannah Montana wouldn't do.
