Theme from Jaws :D

for light wind:
Seals & Crofts - Summer Breeze 8)

My wife's sugestions:
Gordon Lightfoot - The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald :shock:
Billy Joel - The Downeaster 'Alexa'

And why limit the category?
Wagner - Ride of the Valkyries

Yep

But that's what comes to my mind when the 20k wind comes up while I'm sailing! :D :shock: 8)

I love rough seas too dude. But (sadly) there is no connection between Wagner and the ocean.
You should let your wife take control of all music in your life.

Just a thought.
Or maybe Im wrong. Yep. In the final analysis everything is relative to the ocean. I sail corrected.
So "Time is Tight" by Booker T and the M.Gs is relative to the ocean.
"Love Is Blue" is relative.
"Tubular Bells"...and of course the great
"My Wife With Champaign Shoulders"

(They say you learn something new every day) :D

Oh, this is gonna be bad. Since we're not just talking about songs with sailing as the topic, and including songs that sound good when you're sailing...

"Population Override," by Brian Carroll (aka Buckethead). Completely instrumental (and impressive) blues album from a modern master of speed metal guitar.

"Music for Space Tourism, Vol. 1," by Visit Venus. Also completely instrumental.

Anything by Al di Meola.

Yay, h20audio waterproof iPhone container!

er, on second thought I seem to have misinterpreted the entire thread. do not allow my bizarre taste in music to affect you.

Well it seems we are going into musical realms of the ocean :) . I guess the ocean covers a lot of ground.

We are still missing a lot of songs.
