What do you listen to when no one else can hear it

Everyone has something they like to listen to, but won't play it when their friends are around for fear of getting abused. What are your recordings that you don't play for friends, but will put on when no one else is around.

To break the ice, I'll go first.

The Carpenters - from their last LP that came out right after Karen died - "Make believe it's your first time."

Don't be a coward, fess up!

@ljgerens, no apology necessary for liking Surf, I don’t care what Jimi said ;-). The Ventures are AWESOME! Do you have their 1965 "On Stage" album? Great live recordings.

Bill Frisell has a great new album entitled "Guitar In The Space Age!". For new Surf, there is also Los Straitjackets. They have their own stuff, and record and tour as Nick Lowe's band.

Captain Beefheart - "Trout Mask Replica" & "Lick My Decals Off, Baby". Hard to listen to, hard to admire, genius.

@bdp24, I was not apologizing for liking The Ventures. Typically I listen at moderate levels but when I listen to The Ventures I like to crank it up. I usually only do that when nobody is around.

I do not have their 1965 "On Stage" album but I have heard it. I have to check out your other recommendations.
