Nope, never been asked.
The day you ever hear anything other than scores, talk radio, and some comedy songs, and rare classical music, coming from where I'm staying oir my car, means I've been robbed and my car has been stolen.

This happened to me when I was 13 and playing everything on vinyl or cassette. My response was not very accommodating or respectful. Come to think of it the complaints were largely about scores I later got paid to work on restoring/expanding, so there.

Turns out it was the apartment two floors below us. So we have been exonerated.

That's a coincidence. I just moved into my new apartment last week and today I heard Black Beauty playing loudly nearby. I investigated and found some noisy people in an apartment two floors up were playing it. So I went back to my own apartment and put some rap on, to drown it out. That soon quietened them down.
FUNNIEST reply I've read in a very long time! I am in awe of you, Basil!!!

See, and it was that close listening you did then that led to all the riches you have unveiled for us all these years later. Those Philistines! Thank God you stood up to them.

Ain't it the truth, Jim, ain't it the truth!
But last night/this morning I woke up at 3am, headed into the bathroom and could not believe the racket outside. They say it's a sin To Kill A Mockingbird and we know why but man, what is he doing up at 3am? Don't he ever sleep? [--per The Night Of The Hunter; great Walter Schumann score] I mean it's spring and a young bird's fancy, etc. etc. ditto ditto (1776 ta da!) and all but it's a 55 & up community (I'm not part of the up class; the only thing Up means to me is Down The Staircase with a dash of Fred Karlin sweetener) and both uppers AND lowers need their beauty rest. Well, mine was gone after that trip to the can. Sun was barely out but there I was taking a walk and haunting the neighborhood at the crack of dawn (per "being bound to Danbury acres until..." in The Time Of Their Lives; wonderful Milton Rosen score, esp. at end; uh oh, it was crack of doom, I think; close enough) and wouldn't ya know I'm on the home stretch and the blue parrot (see "Greenstreet, S" under Casablanca; M. Steiner 'nuf said) in da neighbor's screened porch is perched not just outside his cage but is on top of the damn thing giving me the evil eye so naturally I stop, look around, the coast is clear and I give it the old "eh, Polly-wanna-crackuh?" and then I'm gone maybe five feet and Polly starts sqawking all over the place and I've got a grin covering my puss thinking of Bugs Buccaneer Bunny handing Polly a cracker all right and giving Capt. Kidney the cannon treatment (kudos to the incomparable Carl Stalling)...
...Needless to say I'm tired, it's now about quarter to 3 ("there's no one in the place...OH FORGET THAT) in the afternoon and I need a siesta. And all because of the LOUD outdoor avian soundtrack music that started at 3am. Sing away, young mockingbird, sing away. I'm closing The Window [haven't seen that one in years; a Roy Webb number if you're keeping score   ].
PS
Oh and Polly you neurotic parrot ya want Psychotic? Next time you give me the evil eye I'm gonna make like Norman Bates and stuff ya yeh Heh HEH
