backbacon Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 I need to build my repertoire of dinner music. Any suggestions? Jazzy stuff; alt takes on contemporary music; anything tame, unobtrusive, and likely instrumental.Here's a disc of dinner music from my collection: Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schwa. Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 i find it hard to believe that you need to beef up your music collection at all. i guess a masterpiece is never really finished, eh.hows about something by Nightmares On Wax or St. Germaine.(goes and puts on Nightmares On Wax CD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Low Roller Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 I think that the Gotan Project albums are great for dinnertime. Same with some Thievery Corporation.(Good call on the trip-hop Schwa) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c-towns Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 The "Pickin' On" series of music went over well at dinner during my sisters wedding, Its instrumental bluegrassy cover renditions of popular bands, I've got CCR, CSNY, Ben Harper, Beatles, Allmans, Phish, Eagles, Petty, Black Crowes and there is many more.

fluffhead77 Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 I just grabbed the BEST dinner music disc i've heard in a looooooooong time - it's a fantastic all around listener though too.

Ms.Huxtable Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 Not jazzy, but the lighter listening albums that get heavy rotation on Sunday mornings or during dinners are:Andrew Rodriguez - Here comes the lightBrooke Miller - You Can See EverythingRay Lamontagne - TroublePeter Elkas - Party of One The Wood Brothers - Loaded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
