All of the voices in my head prohibit me from hearing the music.

Modern jazz on very low volume, stuff like the old George Shearing albums, even a little Stan Getz. Once in a while I can get into classical, but none of the moderm classical that sounds half done and off key.

Since we are talking about the "Iron Horse"(Ferro-equine), I'd have to say that only "Heavy Metal"(pun INTENDED) would be my choice, some Metallica, or Pantera, or Anthrax(the band, not the virus),Crank it up!!

Jazz!

Chuck Loeb, Brian Culbertson, Phillip Brown, Joyce Kooling, Steve Cole, Greg Karukas.
Cool and upbeat! Won't put you to sleep. Their music makes me visualize trains that are rolling at speed!
