HERE ARE MY SUGGESTIONS - HEED THEM WELLPick your favorite Roy Ayers song and place that prominently on the CD, either at teh start to set the mood or possibly as a central linchpin to the whole proceedings. I would personally go for Everybody Loves the Sunshine from Everybody Loves the Sunshine, but there are a host of great songs to pick from.
Next - Gil Scott Herron is a very good idea, well done Gregor Lenko. I would go for Lady Day and John Coltrane or We Almost Lost Detroit, but those are personal preferences (in fact I'd probably put Winter in America on CD and take that with you in the car to provide an alternative soundtrack).
Find Sprain your tape deck by Edan, listen to it, pick your favorite. I like lets be friends.
This next one is important and hard to get but try and try and try and you will be happy - if you can't find it Gaz me and I'll see what I can do for you. The band is called East of Underground and they have a record called East of Underground. This is an awesome record. Track 2 is a cover of Smiling Faces, if you can get this it will lift your soul to new heights of delight.
Bring it down a few with Alien Ant Farm Smooth Criminal, Gwen Stefanni ... whatever that Pherell song where she sings about her shit being bananas is, or Scooby Snacks by the FLC.
The Isley Brothers, Fight the Power OR Who's that Lady? not both. I'd go for Who's that Lady, but that's because I've got it in my car at the moment and I love it.
This one's very important -- The Immigrant Song by Led Zeppelin.
Find something by Garry Higgins, see if you like it add it if you do.
(King Tubby is the) Dub Organiser by Lee 'Scratch' Perry.
Young Marble Giants get anything by them
Anything from Money Mark's Push the Button LP
Lady Don Tek No by Latyrx
Bow Down by Westside Connect Gang
Still Alive, the song from the end of the game Portal...
Dave Dee Dozy Beeky Mitch and Titch - Hold Tight...
Justice - We Are Your Friends is very good, but you might look like a dick pumping it hard on your car stereo with the windows open... doesn't stop me like.
