Music You Cook By

Do you all have favorite music to cook by? Does the music change according to the dish you are preparing? For instance, would you typically have Zydicco (spelling?) playing while preparing cajun, and Elvis for burgers & fries?

Classic 80's rock does it for me, no matter what mood im in. Well maybe a little 70's disco if im preparing classic french stock.

if im cooking for a group at home then its what ever i feel like on the day , if im baking its normally something loud and boppy , if im in a work place its whats ever on the radio, if im cooking for Bruce then its something classic or from the 70s-80s
if its just for me , its food tv
when life hands you lemons, make lemon gelee, lemon meringue pie, or any other dessert your heart desires

Mostly jazz - on the softer side, classic rock (60's/70's), Steely Dan anytime.

To practice my craft, I need total silence! :chef:

LOL! :crazy:

No, really, I prefer news/talk radio - especially when I'm bored with what I'm cooking. Otherwise, my own quiet thoughts amuse me well enough.

Music is not background to me. I will end up losing myself in music and forgetting the task at hand.

I love the sound of silence and I don't mean the song Simon and Garfunkel sang. Have never understood the need people have for noise even if its "background noise" :confused:

for me, i like anything thats loud/fast, but my family doesnt appreciate that most of the time :lol:
actually alot of times i find i prefer something like frank sinatra or michael buble, something classy like that. otherwise i like anything with a fast beat.
