When I decide to go to the gym, I usually play Metallica, Iron Maiden, the Chili Peppers or Van Halen, with David Lee Roth. When I'm chillin I like Uncle Tupolo, Chris Isaac, Tom Waits Leonard Cohen , the Pogues, the Call, etc... I used to be a hugh Springsteen fan, but next time I'm back home in Jersey, I'm going to join the Rumson beach club, just so I can harass him. I live in Hong Kong now.

Check, check, check and check.
You, sir, have damn good taste. My favorite albums of each of those guys is 1.) Metallica--tie, the Black Album and Ride the Lightening 2.) Iron Maiden--Powerslave 3.) BloodSugarSexMagic and 4.) Van Halen (debut).
The Pogues are also pretty good, and I own a Steve Earl (yea, I know, he's a commie...it's an OLD album) album called 'Copperhead Road' where they back Steve on a brilliant song about a mistreated Vietnam vet.
Sadly, I also own two Bruce Springsteen discs. Such good music, so little common sense.
