    Imagine you were at this house at dusk and had to come up with a playlist of songs that could play quietly in the background, what would you pick? I'm thinking smooth jazz without vocals or a guitar solo. Do you have any recommendations? (And no that isn't my house...yet)

    Do you know any that I am missing? It is hard to remember the names of songs or look them up without lyrics (and without Shazam)

    I am just fine with guitar solos like that. :)

    I just have to say, I love that house.

    I am not a fan of most of what has been posted. In fact, when I need music for dinner, etc. I have a playlist of quieter songs, but they all have lyrics. In the spirit of the thread, however:

    Speaking of jazz, anything from the works of Wes Montgomery or Thelonious Monk is high on my list in this category.

    There are a lot of great (but unknown non celebrity) players out there, and good music can live quite well without the guitar...

    A great vibes and bass duo -- Steve Shapiro and Tim Ferguson

    And some unlikely bedfellows such as American jazz pianist Keith Jarrett playing a prelude and fugue by Soviet composer Dmitri Shostakovich...

    The house, though beautifully staged, would not be my cup of tea...

    Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring (Bach)
    Lieutenant Kije Suite (Prokofiev)

    Elevator jazz? I'm partial to Peter White, Greg Adams, Euge Groove and Pieces of a Dream.





    I also like mindless electronic music. I just started getting into Scattle, Perturbator and MOON.

    Heard--and instantly fell in love with--this number earlier today on Pandora.
