As the designated cleaner at Casa Gumbiana, these are my favorite cleaning tunes. They must be played at ear-splitting/danger of blowing a speaker volume (to be heard over the vacuum)

I alternate with DW on the vacuuming, but she leaves me to do the painting.

I'm still trying to figure out why you guys would want to ruin a good classic-rock jam session (or, in Gumby's case, a classical jam session) with an activity like housecleaning.

Besides, the acoustic energy might just do a better job of cleaning than I ever could:

Why not? It's another job you can lie down on...

I hope you have either a good voice or a loud vacuum cleaner!

Looks like a cool well-decorated artist's studio/den/office/reading room, place for a jam session, I aspire to that. The theme holds together.

Thanks a lot, you all, I bookmarked this for the next segment of Spring cleaning. I've been using Bach's Goldberg Variations; at 86.53 minutes it includes plenty of time for a nap.

For those who really hate housework, maybe this is more appropriate...


it gets the juices flowing anyway.
