I vaguely recall from the liner notes to Moving Pictures that "Red Barchetta" was inspired by that essay.
Now, for a true challenge, try listening to the Outlaws' "Green Grass And High Tides", or the "Wizard Run" music from The Wizard Of Speed And Time, on the Merritt Parkway, without speeding.
Ugh, the Outlaws. The genre known as Southern Rock, in general, fills me with revulsion. I have TWOSAT on DVD; haven't gotten round to watching it yet.
Try listening to Sisters of Mercy's greatest-hits album A Slight Case of Overbombing while driving. Which reminds me, I need to make a copy of that CD for the car. Watch out.
Or Tangerine Dream's Force Majeure (large parts of which supplied the soundtrack for the movie Risky Business).
