This three-disc set from the Trojan UK has a ton of classic reggae songs. It's always in the rotation when we are driving around. Here's a link to it on amazon, you can scroll down and see what's on it and listen to samples:

I've got pretty eclectic taste. I've got lots of one off stuff but in terms of bulk from individual artists, these are good bets:

Michael Franti & Spearhead (Ganja Baby, Say Hey, Hey Now Now)
Donovan Frankenreiter
Soundtrack from 50 First Dates
Buena Vista Social Club
Grateful Dead
Jack Johnson
Jason Mraz
Marty Beech
Morcheeba
Nina Simone
Santana
Van Morrison
Soundtrack from Fool's Gold
Soundtrack from Blue Crush
Soundtrack from French Kiss

I am really digging into Mishka after hearing it on No Shoes Radio. Check him out if you are into the mellow side of sound to get you relaxed.

Motorhead?! Whoa!
Rock and roll, man.
With that in mind, I think I'm the only person who enjoys "Bass Trap" by U2. It's a melody that makes you feel like you're underwater.
Hey, how about "In The Mood", by Robert Plant?

LOVE Mishka. He's on Matthew McConeghey's label.

My fav is Coastline Journey.

Groovy tune, alright, Sherb.
I'd like to put in on a loop and have it in the background while we "unpack" (

) during our first day on STJ.
