Music heard on board lately

We have a great sound system on, which includes a Sony CD/Tuner/XM Radio system with Bose speakers.

The XM Satellite Radio system worked great… up North. Not now.

CDs are great, and having friends send some is marvelous, but much of what we listen to is off my iPod which has days of music from our CDs and others.

We often have music at sea around noontime/lunch time, but other times, if we are going 24/7 it is inappropriate to put sounds on high when it might be someone else’s treasured nap time. In port certainly we have lots of music, especially at sunset.

Right now, some of our favorite music includes:

Yo Yo Ma €” Appalacian Journey

Pink Martini €” Hang on Little Tomato and Sympatique

Paul Simon €” Concert in the Park

Jimmie Buffett €” everything

kd lang €” Hymns of the 49th Parallel

The Neill Sisters €” everything

Nora Jones €” everything

Music from Garden State (the movie)

Late night watches have passed quickly when we’ve listened to NPR’s Driveway Moments CD which is the compilation of the best NPR audio stories, which range from 15-25 minutes. Marvelous for the Midnight to 4AM watch!
