Please suggest serene, restful jazz recordings

+1 for TGT's both albums
+1 for Beyond the Missouri Sky

Firstly,the recommendations are 'David Hazeltine-Classic Trio',and 'Alan Broadbent-Personal Standards'.Both of these fit the bill perfectly,IMHO.Secondly,as to the Oscar Peterson 'piano banging',ditto Pbb and Davemitchell.I assume that you did not mean that in a derogatory manner,just as to the style not good for 'unwinding' in the night hours.If Oscar bangs,then Rembrandt painted by numbers. The suggestions I added are not 'elevator,or Kenny G ish,but are top quality in recording,and music.They can be ,'background'but I suspect they will have your total attention before long.One corrction,none are well recognized though.Sorry I missed that point before a re-read.

Bill Evans- "You Must Believe In Spring" a must

Hank Jones; "For My Father" The king of "piano flow" also try
Gene Harris; "Ballad Essentials", can't go wrong here.

Bill Evans Trio - Waltz For Debby
Bill Evans Trio - Live @ Village Vanguard
These are the definitive piano trio LPs, both featuring phenomenal bass of Scott LaFaro

Miles Davis - Sketches of Spain
This LP shows off Gil Evans skills of orchestration and creates a sublime sound that stands the test of time

Ray Brown & Laurindo Almeida - Moonlight Serenade
The inter-twining of Round Midnight & Moonlight Sonata is to die for...Cheers,
Spencer
