Half the magic of a road trip is the soundtrack. With the right choices, music written years ago can seem like it was written solely for one trip.

My carefully selected playlist of albums for my drive:

The Verve – Urban Hymns (A Favorite Album)
Oasis – The Masterplan (A Favorite Album)
Arctic Monkeys – Your Favorite Worst Nightmare
The Kooks – Inside In / Inside Out
Ryan Adams – Cold Roses (Disc 2)
U2 – How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb

Fiona Apple – When the Pawn…
Kasabian – (Self Titled)
Dashboard Confessional – A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, a Scar (A Favorite Album)
Weezer – Pinkerton (I found a Pinkerton badge for sale on Route 66)
Zwan – Mary, Star of the Sea (A Favorite Album)
