I thought I had one too but I looked and all I could find is the vertical mount radio from a 1600 Roadster I once owned. That old Hitachi 8 track is around here somewhere! I have had it for over 30 years! It came out of the 72 Z I once owned.

Which tunes of Steely Dan are from the 70's?

Do It Again (1972, #6)

Reeling in the Years (1973, #11)

Rikki Don't Lose That Number (1974-#4)

Black Friday (1975- #37)

Peg (1977- #11)

Deacon Blues (1978- #19)

FM (No Static at All) (1978- #22)

Josie (1978- #26)

I'm not sure of the correct names but I believe "Ricky don't lose that number" and "Josie" are two great Steely Dan tunes that come to mind.

I have the Greatest Hits CD, but I can't find it right now. I'll try and look for it.

Albums:

Can't Buy A Thrill (1972)

Countdown To Ecstasy (1973)

Pretzel Logic (1974)

Katie Lied (1975)

The Royal Scam (1976)

Aja (1977)

'Gaucho' just misses the cut (1980). They disbanded after that. Donald Fagen did some solo albums (Nightfly, Kamakiriad) late 80s-early 90s and Walter Becker did a solo album (11 Tracks of Whack) unsure of year, it wasn't very good. Fagen and Becker reunited as Steely Dan in 2000 for 'Two Against Nature' and did 'Everthing Must Go' in 2003. There are some collection albums, 'Citizen Steely Dan', 'Steely Dan's Greatest Hits', and 'Steely Dan-Live In America'.

It occured to me that I had read a similar thread here last year. So I searched and found it. Mike started a thread called 'Driving Music' last May. Reading through it I came wonder how we could have gone this far without mentioning ZZ Top?

Tomohawk has a whole list of ZZ Top near the bottom of page 2.

I was kinda wondering how come we were doing it again too Stephen... Maybe we'll come up with some forgotten tunes, with new members.

Yeah, ZZTop is high on my list, so is Skynard, Jackson Browne (especially Running on Empty), Steve Miller, 38 Special,Huey Lewis, with a little Bonnie Raitt and Joe Cocker too...

Hey GunnerRob, that's way cool that you still have that 8-track AM/FM radio from your Z. Is it a Hitachi? I think that's what Datsun put in the cars...........let me check my 72 240Z....hold on. Yep, it's a Hitachi (at least mine is)

I think the original radios are one of the hardest things to find because that's normally the first thing people change when they get the car.

Hi Vicky,

My 8 track AM/FM is a Clarion, model PE 617A. Does anyone know if that's a Datsun unit for 1975?

im thinking

Led Zeppelin: Houses of The Holy

Fleetwood Mac: Rumours

Crosby, Stills Nash, and Young: Deja Vu

Aerosmith: Toys In The Attic

Lynard Skynard: Greatist Hits

i coul go on forever, i know its not quite the right era but some Doors would be a nice addition too

Now rthat I think o fit,"ZZ" top music has a special relation to our cars "Z-cars"

Anybody planning a ZZ-top- inspired paint job?

I have to break the "period" songs by which Z I happen to be sitting in:

'78 280Z-

Blue Oyster Cult--Godzilla

Electric Light Orchestra--Do ya?

The Who--Who are you? (the car will see 100mph if this is playing and no cops around)

The Talking Heads--Take me to the river

Aerosmith--Sweet emotion

The Rolling Stones--She's so cold

Eric Clapton--Cocaine (live version)

The Cars--almost anything from Candy-O

The Doors--L.A. Woman (damn car went 100mph again) or Peace frog

AC/DC--pretty much anything from the catalog but, Long Way to the top if you want to rock n roll (never thought bagpipes could sound so good?)

Traffic--Mr. fantasy

Steely Dan--Deacon blues (make sure your six pack of Budweiser in cans is behind the seat)

Mountain--Mississippi Queen

Blackfoot--Train (goodbye bread mama..get yourself a money man)

Gerry Rafferty--Baker street

'82 280ZX-

By now Bon was dead so anything from Back in Black

The Vapors--Turning Japanese

Devo--why not Whip it good

Led Zeppelin--Carouselambra (In Through the Out Door)

Billy Squire--anything off of Don't Say No (The Stroke)

Missing Persons--Destination unknown (she really did look good in that see through plastic dress)

The Rolling Stones--Start me up or anything from that release

Yes--anything from 90125 (a year early but, who's counting)

INXS--Shabooh Shabah in its entirety

'86 300ZX-

The Cult--pretty much the whole damned catalog--She sells sanctuary

Child's Play--It's my bottle

L.A. Guns--The ballad of Jane

The Alarm--again, the whole catalog esp. Devolution working man's blues

INXS--Kick in its entirety

Simple Minds--again the catalog is good

The Kings--Switchin' to Glide ("nothing matters but the weekend")

Slaughter--Up all night

Enuff Z Nuff--Fly high Michelle

The Bullet Boys--Smooth up in ya (a lot of imagination here)

'03 350Z-

all of the above for ludicrous speed

No Doubt--Underneath it all (who wouldn't want to get underneath Gwen Stefani?)

:D
