Anyone have any cool actual riding playlists on Spotify? There are millions of playlists and so many old school rock but also so many crap. I don't want to be at a red light and freakin' Bohemian Rapsody; Britney Spears or gay ***, Marilyn Manson comes on....geez...Who are the people who produce these playlists...

Yeah man! I got a rock playlist that has 118 songs. I have the premium service since I ride where I don't have a signal most of the time. Love me some Spotify. Check out hawg20 see if we have the same taste in rock.

I've not tried Spotify, but I HATE Pandora. My iPod classic has over 24,000 songs. When I want to hear Eric Clanton, I don't want to hear "similar to Eric Clapton".

And, by the way - what the hell is wrong with Queen? Some of the funnest music ever!

I do spotify. Haven't graduated to where I can stream it on the car stereo as of yet.
Like too though.
I have over 6500 songs on my Ipod which works on my bike, car and pickup though.
Real tired of the "classics" and "classic rock" which is about as listening to a commercial as far as I am concerned.
My tastes range from Leo Kottke to The Rippingtons but mostly Blues rock. Joe Bonamassa, Gov't Mule, some Chris Cornell stuff and a host of others.

I'm with you. I would love a good cruising playlist without anything real dumb.

I agree with you about Pandora, which is why I never use it. If I want to hear a specific song, I'll go to Spotify. But I just hate when someone labels a playlist, "Harley" or "Motorcycle" and I'm expecting some good cruising music but turns out it's the gayest sounding music ever...Oh um...not that there's anything wrong with gay... lol

If you wanna pay the $10 or so per month Rhapsody is the most amazing thing ever. Pretty much any artist / song you could ever want to listen to. You can add them to queues, playlists, or download them onto your phone for offline listening.

I spent the summer riding across Europe. I used Spotify premium to listen to music as I rode. Loved it!
