shop music to build cars to

Normally listen to the old classics, like Bach stc when doing wiring and pinstriping and heavy metal while panel beating (what else). Classic rock otherwise. ANYTHING but rap

Pretty much anything. Usually it's heavier angrier music though.

The other day, I had Miles Davis playing. No biggie.. but an Ambulance went by with the siren on, which put me in a N.Y. state of mind. It was pretty cool!

 

If you have a computer or phone w/internet access to speakers in your garage/shop...

Pandora (http://www.pandora.com/) Streaming music, any genre

Slacker Radio (http://www.slacker.com/) similar to Pandora but more customizable

Little Stevens Underground Garage (http://www.littlestevensundergroundgarage.com) or on Siruis Satellite Radio Ch. 25

Garage Punk Podcasts (http://www.garagepunk.com/)

 

old cars = old music

We listen to pandora quite a bit too. When I get tired of that I switch to radioparadise.com. That gets you a LOT of variety. Nice to have a change of pace to help think outside the box when conditions warrant, or just because change can be good.

Fifties channel on X M Radio. I listen to this driving, working and sleeping. Didn't know there was anything else.

 

Depending on what's being done, I flip between Jazz, Blues and Classic rock. I love 50's rock and roll, but in limited doses.

 

Led Zepplin, AC/DC, Aerosmith Only stuff I can hear over grinding and hammering
