Default Re: Jazz recommendations???

I want some real jazz recommendations, no Kenny G ish, but I want it to be pretty chill, just some mood music, nothing to distract me from concentrating on the game. Another words, trying to stay away from bebop and free jazz.

Some names besides Coltrane, Davis, Dave Brubeck, Paul Desmond, Rahsaan Roland Kirk, just to give you an idea of the type of vibe I am into.

I've given my jazz backgroun schpiel several times already, so I'm not gonna trot it out again. Okay onto the recomendations

Chick Corea: now he sings, now he sobs

McCoy Tyner: the real McCoy

Freddie Hubbard: Ready for Freddie, Red Clay

Joe Henderson: any

Stan Getz: sweet rain, focus, serenity, people time

Miles Davis: Miles In the Sky( a real gem of his)

Sonny Rollins: Saxophone Collosus, Freedom Suite, Sound of Sonny

Grant Green: Idle Moments

Larry Young: Unity

Hank Mobley: the album title skips my mind right now, but the one with the song: This I Dig of you

As the resident OOT jazz expert, what do you think of Friday Night In San Francisco?
