music to row to

Post by torsaer » December 11th, 2006, 6:59 am

Can anyone suggest a cd of music to row to? It's for my husband, who rows for 30 mins at a time and at the moment listens to radio 1 - he can't stand it when the talking starts and needs a compilation cd of upbeat music - can anyone help?
many thanks

i have a best of Steve Vai i put together.

I've listened to it about 30 times while erging this winter.

It's guitar hero rock with many solos and interesting rhythms.

google video search "steve vai" and see if you like him

besides that, the techno group Prodigy is also excellent.. It can be very intense and it always gets me going strong.

Try this thread: Music to row by—please share! You'll find a bunch of song lists and suggestions.

This is a recurring topic, so if nothing strikes your fancy on that thread, you could always search on the forum for "music" to turn up other threads.

I don't know about rowing-specific discs, but there are plenty of sites that sell workout music CDs, like powermusic.com, or workoutmusicvideo.com, or workthis.com. Can't vouch for them, though, since iTunes renders them pointless for me.
