Sleep, by Max Richter. It's an 8-hr. classical composition supposedly based on the neuroscience of sleep. Sometimes it works for me, sometimes it doesn't. Richter is the real deal when it comes to contemporary classical composers. This isn't just some make-a-buck, whale noises type thing he put out. It's on Deutsche Gramophone.

We have a 2 hour thunderstorm that we listen to every night for over 20 years. That's for room ambience. Wife listens to a a Spotify sleep channel that irritates the heck out of me. I sleep in noise reduction headphones and listen to boring audio books. |

Doc Watson singing about the American folk legend, John Henry--that steel driving man. Sort of a romantic notion--man against machine....

That song is based on a real person, though his real name is lost to time. An African American Paul Bunyan if you will. It is really a moving story to discover it's roots. |

I just always thought that that particular song sounds best sung by a black man. I guess it was an early idea of cultural appropriation. I don't usually have that kind of reaction, but on this song I have felt that way as long as I can remember. They're all good and of course Johnny Cash had the big hit, but that's just my little thing.

The Division Bell 1994 gets the least respect until one takes the time to listen.

The Division Bell 1994 gets the least respect until one takes the time to listen. It's OK, and probably excellent work by any other band. It just never spoke to me.😁 But after the 10th album I just quit buying Pink Floyd. There is just always something else of theirs that I would rather listen to. |

I used to listen to Spoon quite a bit. The Ga Ga album, the ones just before and after that, I think. |
