What do Locost builders listen to?

My personal song of the moment:

Stargazer by Rainbow.

Anyone else?

Mozart
Shostakovich

+ whatever Radio 3 is playing while I'm in the garage (Jazz or classical)

OK, Hippy?

Sounds good to me.

I've got nowt against classical stuff.

Bit of a closet Mozart fan if I'm honest.

Might get hold of some once I have the funds to do so in fact..

actually, my last post wasnt true.

I have Connect FM - a local kettering and corby station on that plays 70 - 90s music.

It saves getting cds covered in crap.

What IS true is that im going to a donny osmond concert next month with my wife. She feels embarrased about it as an ex fan - imagine how im lookign forward to it.

What will be interesting is to see if all those early 40's ladies can still scream 'donny' like they did in the 70s tv clips

Black sabbath
Iron Maiden
Nirvana
Deep Purple
Metalica
Smashing Pumpkins
AC/DC
Pearl Jam
Led Zepplin
Stone Roses

and much more of the same ilk. Anything from the Rainbow, Purple, Sabbath era is particularly good as that was the time, in my opinion, that rock/metal was at it's pinacle.

When I'm feeling chilled the odd bit of jazz or classical doesn't come amiss either.

I used to think that my musical tastes were a bit sad these days but it seems that I'm not the only one

And finally - when I'm not in the mood for music - Radio 4.

Auzziejim, You obviously go to the wrong school, at my school there was a reasonable sized group of people who liked quality music (admitedly, some bands on that list would have been laughed at a bit, but mostly not).

Stadium rock is pretty cheesy though, and guns and roses really should just let it go (although I seem to remember hearing lately that they'd almost definately never play another gig anyway). And as for Status Quo, well, three chord gets boring after about 10 minutes let alone 20 (or more?) years.

Black Sabbath is the mutts, I've usually got at least one CD in my car changer, if not two.

I creased up when I read that Status Quo's lead guitarist had RSI - he said that playing 3 chords for all these years had taken its toll!

At least he had the balls to own up...

I'd say RSI is a comparatively small price to pay for the money they must have in the bank.

I think they're still specifically banned from being played on radio 1.

Yep - American pseudo rock, Rock with the rock taken out, the skimmed milk of rock, the low fat-artificial sweetner-high fibre-natural colourings only- rock.

Give me quality british metal any day - The graesy bacon buttie of rock (and no mistake)

Mozart (Well-tempered Clavier)
J.S. Bach
Fairport Convention
Katherine Tickell

Horslips
- and loads of other stuff I can't play when when my wife's around. That's what I mean by "undistracted".
