Bryan Adams

From the mid-'80s to the mid-'90s, Canadian singer/songwriter and guitarist Bryan Adams was one of the most successful recording artists in popular music worldwide. Twenty years later, Adams may be keeping a lower profile, but he's still going at it, concocting the anthemic rock and radio-friendly ballads he's famous for. He's still keeping up on the latest music, too, as you can see at a glance from this exclusive mixtape he made for ARTISTdirect. Who knew the guy who brought the world "Summer of '69" would put The White Stripes next to Ray Charles?

2. The White Stripes - "Blue Orchid"

3. Motorhead - "Ace of Spades"
