Do you listen to music while playing chess

 ohhh Hessian what a great rock you again show!!!! I made a note ofit, pencel and all, great ong/sound!Others reading tis: HessianW is the greatest Rock-expert I ever met in my live, so make a note of ths song, if you like music while playing, play this one! will boost you uo in the Blitz!

Thanks for the great song Hessian, I am now gonna listen it again, and maybe again, and again! Great contribution.

There is something seriously suspicious here. No one praises Hashish that much, unless you're smoking it. And they certainly don't praise that song that much, unless they've smoked too much of it. Hmmm....very suspicious....

on the subject of guitarists, here's a few of my faves

Paul Gilbert

Buckethead

Andy Timmons

@ miletus: I think the 3 es has you looped.

what do you mean? I am getting bit slow now, your song ROCK listening it, so great!!! In my opinion it places the solution to this whole topic: 'chess + music'..great hess!!

I like "Rock Me" by Great White. I don't know about it boosting chess points but it boosts the way I feel.

 the song ROCK Hessian presented is excellent (in any case for me) and I aman addict to guitars and metal (drums), the song is great, I realy made a note of it, so great. And Hessian, yes, the greatest rock expert I ever met, he prooved that so often.

 ok, funny..but I mean what I said, Hessian and the Rock

I mainly save my comments about music for my own thread on that subject but I feel that I should add another post here. There are certain songs that move certain people. Of course it is often a different group of songs for each of us. A song that truly moves me each time that I hear it ( this goes back many years ) is " The City Of New Orleans " sung by Arlo Guthrie. Another is " Those Were The Days " by Mary Hopkins, & " The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down " by Joan Baez, & " Hey Jude " by the Beatles, etc etc. And yet other people may say these songs are garbage. In an earlier post someone said that such and such a song was not too good, well it is good for some and not good for others, such is life.      

 I listened to all the performances: I like Buckethead and Andy Timmons the best, great guitar play!!! Thak you for posting and sharing!

you're welcome. glad you enjoyed them. there's so many excellent guitarists in the world today and past, it's hard for me to pick an absolute favorite. I love instrumental rock, fusion, prog and so on. there's just so much good music out there and so many only have a select audience. back on topic, I can't say if I play any better or worse while listening to some tunes but I'm addicted to both so I'll take my chances and jam anyways :•)

Well, Digitalrika, you shared some real good rock, I liked it. Such shows you have somekind of talent for good music. Will it boost your Blitz?? I think so for sure, just try and see. I hope you post other ood sounds here,please do!

Why is my name used here????

These are great!

On the subject of guitarists, one of the best today is Tom Morello.

I listen to Radiohead, Tool, Poi Dog Pondering, Pink Floyd, and The Verve, among others. 

"Storm in Heaven", by The Verve, is a great CD

Yes, truly a masterpiece. One of those where you still remember hearing it for the 1st time. I'm pretty sure I have every one of their cd's. Check them out Trysts. You won't be disappointed. "The Rolling People" is my favorite song by them, from "Urban Hymns"

I enjoy them a lot, TMIMITW
