Whilst she was waiting, they were playing James Brown 'I Feel Good' ! How cool is that ? Normally they play rubbish, but I thought it showed a sense of humour to have such an upbeat song.. Can any of you guys remember the best music you heard whilst being 'on hold' ? Or if you can't remember the best, then what was the worst ?

It sounded so 16 bit. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content! Don't miss today's free blues, jazz & country licks.

Well, IKEA is swedish, so they have to play some swedish stuff, and I don't think people would like Messugah or Bathory better. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I dont remember which show for sure. If I had to listen to elevator or on hold style music then at least make it this stuff,although James Brown would be bonus too Ben!
