okay, here's the thing. there is a set of albums that i love so much, it's hard for me to go public with it. i used to get so heckled when i tried to play them in my dept.
for anyone in-the-know, they are certainly legendary, but for the uninitiated, they can sound kind of "smooth-jazz".
they are live, and they are often credited with completely changing the way rhythm sections work.. blah, blah blah.
here you go... ready:
bill evans trio, "live at the villiage vangaurd" and "waltz for debby".
scott lafaro died in a car wreck two-weeks later.

I can vouch for that Live at the Village Vanguard album - good stuff!

You Never Know by
Peter Erskine is fucking brilliant. I think the label ECM do quite a lot of mellow introspective stuff.

Jimmy Smith mellow?

Yeah, if you search for 'slow jazz' you'll find lots and lots of Kenny G esque music i expect.
