I just notice that I can't stand music being played over and over again, 
even when it is my most favorite pieces - with the notable exception of 
Gordon Lightfoot (and in that case even the pieces I don't like that 
much are quite ok).

Maybe his very early career shows there. In one of his songbooks he 
attributes his style to extensive experience in playing at truck stops 
or bars or some such, requiring him to get a feeling for entertaining 
the audience without actively "forcing" their attention.

Perfect background music.
