Country, old time rock and roll, blues.
All time favorite when you can find it on the internet jukebox: Rack Em Up - Johnny Lang.

I feel the same as you guy's. I don't wana hear rap music while I shoot. Blues or some old rock and roll is what I like.
 
I play while listening to my I-pod. I listen to a lot of the artists of my generation or before.

People like Elvis, Frank Sinatra, and Groups like the Platters or The Temptations.

I also listen to a lot of Bob Seiger and Meatloaf.

I've also thrown in some Jimmy Buffet.

Most of the music is from my generation though. It makes me feel younger than I am and brings me back to some of the many rooms I frequented in my youth. It helps create a better frame of mind, for me, while I'm playing.

Someone asked me one time what I listen to.

I told them it was a recording of my wife telling me: "We need the money."
 
Johnny Lang, wow - I haven't heard him in years.

Unbelievable, little white kid with an old time blues voice.

Thanks for reminding me of him, I'll have to check him out again.

Yeah, blues has it for playing pool.

When I went to the Derby last year my friend and I found a pool hall in Kentucky called, "The Bank Shot".

It was in an old bank building, old diamond tables and some really good blues playing, super place - very relaxing and enjoyable.

Haven't heard that kinda music again in any pool halls I've been to and thats to bad.

If I had the perference, Blues or Jazz, but everytime I put a song on the jukebox, the next 10 are rap or what I can only describe as Mexican Polka music. So sometimes silence is best.

Jazz: Chuck Mangione, Nestor Torres, maybe a little Sarah Jones, if I'm feeling on the wild side!
 
Cross Canadian Ragweed. Particularly the album Soul Gravy. (Blues Rock)
The Steel Drivers self-titled album (contemporary bluegrass)
Concrete Blonde (anything really but most definately Mexican Moon)
 
music of the spheres

blues brings to my mind Buddy Hall in his prime - anything bluesy makes the insanity of a rushed stroke unacceptable - i once got in road shape playing BLUE JEAN BLUES by ZZ TOP (i couldn't find the topless version)
