On a long journey I use two approaches
Nice to be able to go back to trust and friendship!!!!!!!!!
It's a mixed up sensation this being alive Oh! it wears a man down into the ground It's the strangest elation I can't describe it Oh it leaves a man weary It makes a man frown..............................Chris Simpson ( "Mixed Up Sensations" 1975 Martin's Cafe )

Any particular artist/genre that you prefer...
Probably something that might evoke certain emotions while on the journey.

Yeah! Depends on the journey really , I tend to select the music to reflect the countryside and the emotions it makes me feel............sometimes I choose something about the area I am in or going to.......eg one trip I had was to the Welsh boarders ........so It was Hergest Ridge because I know that Mike Oldfield was inspired to write it in that area.
I was up in Yorkshire in the UK over summer so I took some early Kate Bush ( Wuthering Heights ........etc) One of my great favorites is Magna Carta which was inspired by the Yorkshire Dales so Magna it was........About 10 years back , it was a journey to Liverpool so it was The Beatles................Several years ago I went to the Midlands in the UK so it was Al Stewart and Clifford T.Ward as both come from around there. Two years back around December I went to Rothenburg in Germany which is famous for its Christmas wood carvings so it was Phil Spector`s Christmas album and Ommadawn by Mike Oldfield

A long travel for me would be the time I become a radio surfer. Love to find stations out there that I would never hear at home, where other than NPR, I get absolutely nothing but top 40 crap.
