Lately when working in the garage been playing a little known Peter Frampton disc, Fingerprints 2006. All instrumental and bluesey, check this out if your looking for something new.

Also been playing Steve Miller Band complete greatest hits, "somebody get me a cheeseburger":D
 
I like listening to classic rock & roll '50's -early '70's, Motown, R&B, Big Bands, etc. But the best sound is when I fire up one of our Dual exhaust, Brockman Mellow-Tone muffler equipped Flatheads, they make music like nothing else!:D
 
Old country (not this new stuff) and bluegrass. Willie,s place. Sirus country, channel no. 6064 on Dish TV, 24 hours of all country. Walt
 
Mostly Classic Rock from the 60's and 70's. My Son has also got me listening to Greatful Dead, Phish, Widespread Panic, Pearl Jam and music of that sort from other similar groups. I also got a Taylor Swift CD for Christmas, kind of as a joke from my wife, but I do like her music as well as her good looks :).

PS......What Vic said!!....you won't hear any better music than what comes out of the tailpipes of a sweet running Flathead with the right exhaust system. Just make sure you have the garage doors open.

Another fan of the Roadhouse, Outlaw Country, and Willies Place on XM Radio. My 8 tracks are getting old and dont sound that good anymore...
 
Out in the garage, I generally put the iPod on the Swing playlist if I'm working on the coupe. Right now it's about 1056 songs. Probably 200 of that is Glenn Miller.

Otherwise, some kind of rockabilly or derivative thereof, modern and vintage, and that playlist is 2086 songs.

Or some '80s hair metal. Right now my 2 1/2 year old is obsessed with the Stray Cats and also my band, the Hot Rod Hucksters. It's pretty neat. I introduced the Stray Cats to him and certainly didn't force it on him. It's genetic I guess. :D Hopefully we play some outdoor daytime shows this summer so he can see us playing live again.

Who?? :)

I like music older than my car is, and often listen to it in the garage. Krupa, Dorsey, Miller, Kaiser, Berrigan, Shaw...

Sirius/XM has a great mix, from the 40s on 4 to Willie's place, ClassicRadioShows etc. The old, before-it-went-Hollywood country music is good too. Luke the Drifter (Hank Sr), Tubb, Tillman, Hank Thompson, King Bob Wills, etc. - Great stuff to listen to.

Preferences for music are as personal as our cars are, eh?
 
Country. I do listen to alot of rock but not in the garage. Need music to keep me mellow when that part don't fit right.
 
i agree with jim1932 mellow 70s ccr, zztop, jimcroce, skynerd especialy when im doing body work welding seal prime repete again repete
 
I listen to oldies stations if I can get them. Like 50's to today middle of the road rock, top 40 type songs. Fleetwood Mac, Frampton, ABBA etc.
