When I am printing I find that spoken or sung words distract from my concentration so I listen to contemplative music like Golden Bowls, Lullaby for the Moon, Song for Moo-Wa-Sah, or World Flutes. At the end of the session during washing and clean up I need a little more energy to help me finish so I switch to jazz or classic rock. Some classical music works well but some is so interesting or attention demanding that, again, it distracts from my visual concentration. My 2 cents.

I either listen to an all news station, talk radio, or a police scanner. -------------------------------------------- Retired Shop Rat - 14,647 days in a GM Plant Web site - www.destarr.com
