Geez, I feel like the exception to the rule. I only want slience when I write.
Most common CD choices when I work are (in order):

Steely Dan
Stone Temple Pilots
(early) Genesis
Dave Mathews
Coldplay
Pink Floyd
Supertramp

They set the write tone for working.

The Jim Rome show is my other vice, but I forget any time I'm busy.

In light of Tom Doak's thread on Lyle Lovett, I thought I'd bump this old one as it's related (in its own way).

Thanks for reminding me to take another listen to Brian Slawnik's Christmas CD.  I wonder what he has been listening to down at the CC of Detroit?

Kye Goalby's interview mentioned that the greatest advance in golf construction technology since he got into the business is the iPod.

You can't tell me you don't have JC's "I'm on a Doak" on your Ipod at all..... :D

Scott:

Actually I don't have an iPod of my own.

I still listen to the radio when I'm in the car traveling.  When I'm out on a construction site, I prefer to listen to the wind, and to the sounds of the other guys working.

I need music to work... but when I get in the focus zone, I hear it but I don't listen to it, it just fade away in my mind

I don't mind just putting the radio on...

at Sagebrush, we had only one channel... the merritt local radio

I like the surprise of a good tune showing unexpectedly so I don't mind not being in control of the next song.

For office work !?!, I put radioparadise.com on a good mix of everything from rock to classical (rare).
