Re: Favorite Music While Playing
I enjoy jazz from the 40's-60's while I am playing. Currently in the rotation are several Miles Davis CD's, Art Blakey, Duke Ellington, Charles Mingus, Thelonius Monk, Bill Evans, Dave Brubeck, Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker and Max Roach.
For reasons unbeknownst to me I am able to focus and relax more listening to jazz as opposed to other styles of music that I find enjoyable. The one exception is that my favorite Art Tatum CD's "20th Century Piano Genius" is far too distracting to listen to while playing poker. The guy performs some inhuman things on the piano that demand the listeners full attention.
