Favorite relaxation album (any genre applicable)
Mine are Peter Gabriel's SO and US albums. They both have a rather soothing sound even when they have faster songs. I am particularly fond of Red Rain and In Your Eyes.

Exactly. Greatest album every created in the history of recorded music.
Also a very soothing album for me.

Portishead
Mazzy Starr
Most John Coltrane
Most Miles Davis
Pretty much any Beethoven Piano Sonata
Samuel Barber - Adagios
Mozart- Adagios
Edward Grieg- Adagios
(sense a pattern on the orchestral adagios here?)
and so many more...

Ditto to all said above about Miles Davis' Kind of Blue.
Probably the greatest collection of musicians on a single album... and mighty relaxing too.
