Cant beat good jazz albums, you can listen to them over and over again, pick up some Miles from 65-69, and nothing like a little sarah vaughn when you are cruising at 3 am.
If you want relaxing floyd, go with "wish you were here" It has all of "shine on you crazy diamond", and you just cant beat that.Quote:

Of course I'll have Bruce- can't drive through Jersey without him. I think Darkness is a great album, if you REALLY want to get depressed, play Nebraska.Quote:
