"The Wasp (Texas Radio And The Big Beat)" by The Doors, or as mentioned earlier, most of LA Woman. My wife HATES the Doors, so only get to listen to it on rare solo trips.

I had LA Woman on cassette and played it on the deck that I stuffed in the center console of my first roadster. Also had Janis Joplin's Pearl on cassette with "Move Over" another favorite.
