Not that I'm planning on getting one, but I told my wife that if I got a C4, I'd play nothing but 80's music.

What do owners of C3s typically play? Do you play whatever you like now or do you go vintage (Beach Boys, Rolling Stones, KC & the Sunshine Band)?

I like to listen to many things, but in the C3 70's music always sounds better. She runs better with it too. Seriously.

When in the '68 - top down - Magic Carpet Ride (Steppenwolf). Correct me if I am wrong but I think this song debut when the '68 models were brand new. BK3



MAGIC CARPET RIDE - LYRICS

"I like to dream, yes, yes
Right between the sound machine
On a cloud of sound I drift in the night
Any place it goes is right
Goes far, flies near
To the stars away from here."

Ahh... real music of course

First, Hendrix 1968 with "Crosstown Traffic":http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUwjyr17l0M


Then Doors 1971 "Riders On The Storm" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lS-af9Q-zvQ

Steamhammer 1969 with "Junior's Wailing" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQJY8EVqzwA for some serious headbanging

Ike andTina Turner 1973 "Nutbush Citiy Limits" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mljV2OdBGD0

ZZ Top "Tush" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9KbcYnP2ZWQ

Beatles 1969 "Come Together" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axb2sHpGwHQ

Stones 1968 "Jumping Jack Flash" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULitGKV3pJ8.

You get the idea...

When I got my c3 I found a 70s radio station and got a kick out of it. I soon realized it was awful and got an ipod radio transmitter. What I was really envisioning is the GTA Vice City soundtrack.
