Disclaimer: I personally never, ever, ever, ever listen to any sort of Exotica or "Tiki Music," unless I'm stuck at some tiki event...those albums just don't set the right "tone" for me.

With that said,

I pretty much listen to the same albums over and over and over when I carve.

Here's my work rotation:

Rolling Stones: Sticky fingers, Exile on Main St.
David Bowie: Live at the Tower in Philly, Pinups, Hunky Dory,Man who sold the world, Diamond Dogs
Talking heads: 77, More songs about buildings and food
Meat Puppets: I, II, Up on The Sun
Elvis Costello: This Year's Model, My Aim is True
U2: joshua Tree
Various: 20 Reggae Classics vol 1 and 4

Lot of albums, but I carve a lot and these choice albums seem to keep me in "the zone." On any average day of carving I'll listen to 5-6 of those beore I'm tired of music and work in silence.

Buzzy Out!
