 Music and a memory. - Fenlander
For me it is the Bowie Live double album from the 1974 Diamond Dogs tour. My sister was the Bowie fan really but I transferred her album to tape straight after she bought it and played in my first car.... a Triumph Herald. First months wages after leaving school went on a Phillips car cassette player.

Bowie isn't my favourite artist and this isn't my all time favourite album but here is something about the raw ambience playing as you drive. The cassette, then latterly a CD, has been in every car I've owned over the past 35yrs.... and it's in the new C5 right now.

I only have to put on almost any track from it to be transported back to the wide tyred, Peco exhausted Herald roaring up the village high street at 1am as I tried (and usually failed) to creep in without parents waking.
