OT music
I love to turn up the volume whilst I cook. I'm curious as to what people
listen to music wise here. Two of my favourite groups are Genesis and Pink Floyd. Yours? Elaine |

There were two - one before Phil Collins started singing lead (as well as drumming) and one before that. I have the album with 'The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway" with Peter Gabriel. I love them both. Floyd is okay if you don't give too much credit to 'Dark Side of the Moon', which, don't get me wrong, was a fine album. But I prefer the 'The Wall'. The Eagles are of course right up there and all their various 'single' components  Love Don Henley, Joe Walsh, Glenn Frey.But I've also always been into musical scores from films. I'm not talking Broadway musicals, although they have their place. I'm talking philharmonic works of John Williams, James Horner, Thomas Newman. Wonderful stuff! Jill |

But I prefer the 'The Wall'. I agree - I enjoy the Wall... also "Echoes" - the entire side of an lp............ Thanks for your picks - I like to hear what other people listen to so I can look them up. E. |

Lord above - is there a meter that goes that low?! For baking, Wagner, always Wagner. I don't know why - the first couple of times it was just a coincidence that Wagner was playing, I think, and then it set into a "tradition". For any other cooking, anything really - though Schubert and Interpol are current favourites. |

My favorite groups are The Talking Heads, David Byrne, REM, Tom Petty, Tracy Chapman, and just about anything 70's-80's punk/new wave. I also like Blues and Reggae/Ska a lot.

During barbecue competitions we usually listen to electric blues.

When I'm driving long distance I always have to have the Eagles Greatest Hits, both volumes, but lots of other stuff as well. At home I switch it up a lot - Chris Isaak, Susanne Vega, Enya, Charlie Parker, classical (Chopin, Lizst, Rachmaninoff, Tchaikofsky, etc.) Leon Redbone, oldies collections (rock, r&b, and country), Mamas and Papas, Righteous Brothers, Gilbert & Sullivan, Donovan, Leonard Cohen, Otis Redding, Elvis Presley, Blood Sweat and Tears, Bob Dylan, Dire Straits, Lou Reed, Perry Como, Clannad. There are many more but I can't think of them all right now. If I ever get some of their CD's I'd listen to John Prine, Lucinda Williams,Tracy Chapman, Melissa Etheridge, Morphine, North Mississippi Allstars, Tom Waits, to name just a few.

Do you coordinate it with the food that you are preparing? The ethos of the dance of music,language and food are inseparable. I am a longtime lurker, have just started posting ,and fell for a few newbie traps. I am serious in my comments/questions, and have a gleeful sense of humor! I was trained as a professional musician, (Bass Trombone performance Degrees), and now tune and repair Pianos. I have loved food all of my life. :-) My music career is somewhat shorter,..only 50 years. Reading recipies and misical scores are similar. "Beethoven or 'Basie, Berlin or Biloxi. The spots on the page are the same!......the rest is interpretation." I quote myself here. May I please join the commaradrie and knowledge here.? I won't "belch" like this again, unless asked...:-) Hubert Liverman "What if the hokey pokey really *is* what it's all about? "Kate" |

Do you > coordinate it with the food that you are preparing? Not really, just what I'm into at the moment. I have a Pioneer cd player that takes a 6-disc magazine, so I tend to put an assortment of things in the magazine and then hit random play. I like to mix and match a lot. I usually only listen to music when I'm cooking all day for a dinner party or something like that. It's nice to have the 6-disc magazines as I get all day music without having to worry about changing records, etc. Then I usually put a new magazine with a different selection in for when the company actually comes so we have music all during dinner and after. Kate -- Kate Connally “If I were as old as I feel, I’d be dead already.” Goldfish: “The wholesome snack that smiles back, Until you bite their heads off.” What if the hokey pokey really *is* what it's all about? |

My CD player accepts MP3 CD's. I just make a compilation CD and I've got hours and hours of music available. I feel that many CD's have "filler" songs on them, and I'm able to omit those songs from the CD's I make. I generally make a different CD for each event; it only takes a couple minutes and the blank CD's are pretty cheap. Bob |
