Abstract
This is a short review of the quasinormal mode spectrum of Schwarzschild, Reissner-Nordstrom and Kerr black holes. The summary includes previously unpublished calculations of i) the eigenvalues of spin-weighted spheroidal harmonics, and ii) quasinormal frequencies of extremal Reissner-Nordstrom black holes.
