Telluride 2011 Mix CD

[dgott2000]

Hey guys, I was thinkin' I'd make a mix CD (or CDs) for the drive to Telluride this year that showcases only artists that will be playing.  I thought I'd open it up on the forums for suggestions of everyone's favorite tracks.

I'll be happy to post the final playlist and perhaps I'll make a bunch of copies to give out at the fest!

Trampled by Turtles is my favorite band and it would be tough to name a favorite track but 'Stranger' from the Trouble album would be a great place to start. 

 Listening to: woody guthrie

[TellurideTom]

"How's your whole..... family" by the house band.

[Hooch]

A 2011 CD is a GREAT idea!  I suggest "Big Country" by Bela Fleck and the Flecktones.  It's the ideal tune for driving through the mountains as you approach Telluride.

[Hot Sugar]

Here goes . . .
River Take Me - Darrell Scott (The Sam Bush version is acceptable)
Copperhead Road - Steve Earle
Walk Beside Me - Tim O'Brien & Darrell Scott
Hard Livin - Railroad Earth
Same Old River - Sam Bush
It's a Great Day to Be Alive - Darrell Scott
On The Run - Yonder
Circles Around Me - Sam Bush
Rox in the Box - The Decemberists
Colorado - Railroad Earth
Whole Lotta Love - Led Zeppelin (go with Sam Bush's performance)
Turning Around - Tim O'Brien
Colorado - Darrell Scott
Lover of the Light - Mumford and Sons
Flight of The Cosmic Hippo - Bela Fleck & The Flecktones
Souvenir Bottles - New Grass Revival (If that's allowed) or Sam Bush (if NGR isn't allowed)

Also, if you can find it, The Stringdusters do a kick-ass version of Steam Powered Aereo Plane

I think I might just plop down every single mp3 I have onto a thumb drive and put that sucker on shuffle for the eight hours it takes me to drive there.

But here are a few...for driving I lean towards fast songs:
Trampled By Turtles - Wait So Long
Railroad Earth - Crossing The Gap
Decemberists - This Is Why We Fight
The Head and The Heart - Down in the Valley
Steve Earle - This City
Nora Jane Struthers - Greenbriar County
Punch Brothers - Don't Need No
Old Crow Medicine Show - Take 'Em Away
Yonder Mountain String Band - Left Me In A Hole
