When you are getting ready to do something that requires concentration, what do you listen to for inspiration?

I'm getting ready to present a webinar and am finding good 'ol Lily Allen is pumping me up for this.

If I'm working on something, I usually listen to
Sigur Ros

If I'm driving at night I might listen to Crystal Castles

And sometimes, just sometimes, I even listen to me.

The blues.

Turn up the sound and listen all the way through--you'll be better for it.



edit: Clapton's giving the concert of a lifetime in New York in April. I’m still trying to figure out some way...

I'm not a musician. Can't play a thing (spoons, maybe). It is amazing, though when you hear a great musician, you can often tell who is playing. For me, that's the case with Clapton. I hear a snipped of a riff and think "Hmmm. Sounds like Eric".

Here's another from the same you tube page you posted.

Gearing up for another class and I'm trying your music!

Just had to tell you that I listened to "me" all the way through. By me I assume no band as the drum track sort of gives that away. But hey. Way to put it out there.

Yeah, Hendrix is another artist with a singular sound. No one else sounds like that. Can you imagine what heights he would have reached if only he had lived?
