I just listen to the local FM station that plays classic 60's and 70's rock music. About what Tony listens to. Throw in some Queen, Doors, Grateful Dead...Amazingly all the same stuff the college kids seem to be listening to, which is why it's getting so much air play.

Mostly the classics. Russian composers--Tschaikovsky, Borodin, Rachmaninoff, etc. But others, too. Beethoven, Strauss, etc. Also golden oldies rock stuff ( ". . .been through the desert on a horse with no name . . ." "Bye bye Miss American Pie" etc. Garrison Keillor. The tappet brothers.

Mostly jazz, esp. Chet Baker and Miles and Art Pepper, etc.

Rap, of course, grew up with it during my college days

Classical music, big on Bach, Mozart, etc.

Country, Johnny Cash and Leann Rimes, etc.

 

Rock, my favorite two all time are Steely Dan and the Eagles (billy joel too).

Trevor, I am glad I am not the only one who listens to Abba. I always play music when I work in my darkroom. I listen to Black Uhuru, Moby, a lot of tehcno stuff. However, my kids run and hide and the dog howls whenever I put Abba on in the house. Everyone usually winds up leaving the house. Oh well, they don't realize that is part of my plan all along.

Interesting post Tony.

 

I listen to all sorts of music, mostly Jazz, classical, anything new and good comtempoary. I was a musician and now a violinmaker. I love Pink Floyd, The Cure, The Beatles etc too, good taste.

 

Music is very good for your mind, as is photography, etc.

This is a good thread...

 

With Tmax developer, I listen to a self-made mix of heavily rhythmic new and classic rock,

pop and country, e.g. Jim Croce, Dolly Parton, Steppenwolf, Paul Simon, Chuck Berry, The

Pointer Sisters, Baha Men... you get the idea. I find the beat makes the frequent, vigorous

agitations a lot more fun.

 

In my digital darkroom, Chopin, Bach and Brahms.

this is on topic to Leica Photography?....or relates closely to Leica photography? (by the way....the preferred OT is ommitted from the title if this is indeed falling under that very loose allowance).....................yet, OT critique directly related (which, according to the author of that picture, occurs in physical gallerys all the time) to a certain POW gets deleted...............hmmmmmmmmm
