For me the one that hits the spot is Mo Foster – Bel Assis [MMC CDP 7 904552]

The line-up for various tracks:
Mo Foster – Bass, Keyboards
Simon Philips – Drums
Gary Moore/Ray Russell – Guitar
Stan Sulzman – Sax
Frank Ricotti – Vibraphone
Peter Van Hooke – Electronic Percussion
Dave Defries – Trumpet
Sal Gallina – Electronic Wind Instruments
Rod Argent – Keyboard

I also use Uriah Heep’s - Demons & Wizards, but that for a different type of chill-out!

Handsome Family - Any of the albums though the first one is a little different.
Dread Zeppelin - Un Led Ed (good for those dancy type moments )
Floyd - Any album (obviously)
Neu - Neu75 (freaky)
The Beta Band - The Three EP's
Kate Bush - Hounds of Love (very relaxing)
Nick Lowe - The Convincer
Gabriel Minnikin - Hard Feelings (self released album, you ain't gonna get it easily!)

and the cream of the crop:

Robert Wyatt - Cuckooland/EP's Box set/Shleep or Rock Bottom

Not that I like to chill out much

Quite enjoying relaxing to the latest AIR album (forgotten what its called).

If I’m chilling out I like some mellow jazz like Bob James or Grover Washinton or like the voices of Nat King Cole or Marvin Gaye.
If I’m relaxing I like something like Secret Garden or Henry Mancini or something classical

Talk Talk - Spirit Of Eden SACD / Laughing Stock
Massive Attack - 100th Window
Pink Floyd - Meddle
Beck - Sea Change SACD
No-Man - Together We're Stranger

I agree with the above . . . anything AIR or Zero 7.

I actually just so AIR perform last month and they were amazing live. Does anyone know of any music that is similar to theirs? I'm thinking maybe Dead Can Dance?

At the moment for me there's only one chillout cd stuck in the multichanger (well 2, it's a double album), The Big Chill classics, fantastic cd, I'll get to the festival one of these days
