This ones for the artists out there. What are your most popular albums to play while you create. Some of my favs are Hatfield and the North, Thick as a Brick, UmmaGumma, Ege Bamyasi, Zeit, In a Silent Way just to name a few. I was painting this morning, and found that On an Island is now on this list. So paint, draw, sculpt whatever your medium, what is your musical muse?

When I draw or paint I usually don't listen to anything. I actually enjoy silence for those kind of things.

I don't paint or do any fine arts, at home at least When I study, I usually play something light so that it doesn't distract. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/ocellatedgod" rel="nofollow - last.fm |

Well, I'm a writer and I don't usually listen to anything when I am serioulsy writing, I find it very distracting, anathema to the creative process. If I'm journaling, I'll listen to anything, but if I'm seriously creating, I have to be alone with my thoughts and feelings. ------------- "The red polygon's only desire / is to get to the blue triangle." |

When I study I listen to classical music. And when I want inspiration, I just see my Pink Floyd Live at Pompei DVD OR LISTEN TO dANNY eLFMAN ------------- For most it does not come easily For some it comes with pain From a thought to a living sight For some it's a life for some a game |
