OT: Looking for music

I'm looking for some quality "chill out" music. I'm thinking some slow Spanish guitar, some piano, light vocals. Maybe some clean electric guitar. Maybe even a little Sax? Not baritone Sax, but really high-note wailing Sax but with a soft tempo. Elevator music, in essence?

Have you listened to any of Cain's Solo efforts?

I haven't. But I do see some of these qualities in Neal's solo work, which is why I asked since I know some here appreciate the sound I'm looking for. Where should I start with Cain's solo work?

Body Language has more of an electronic feel to it.

Piano With A View is more Jazz oriented if that's your thing.

I have to say though, Tito is defintely the guy to talk to about any of Cain's work.
Personally, If I'm in the mood for it, chill out/Elevator music to me is more along the lines of these two.

Shit...I knew I knew that name.
She's from the Crusaders. Street Life is one of my favorite albums of that genre, of that time.

TFF's Raoul & The Kings of Spain used Spanish guitar interspersed throughout this album. Though, this album plays loosely as a concept album and great as straight listen though, but wouldn't call it elevator music, if that's what you're looking more. More progressive rock in places but with a very reflective, moody ambience to the album. (I'm talking about the original CD, not the recently reissued with a bunch of bonus tracks tacked on, which makes it lose the flavor and continuity of the album.)

Not sure if this is what you are looking for. I love this stuff for background music when I am doing things around the house, out in the yard, or just kicking back. Not quite Spanish- Bolivian actually. They have a few CDs out.

There's no Spanish guitar, but Nina Simone got a lot of chill music.

She also has a great duet with Rick Springfield (Taxi Dancing).

You guys are top-notch. Now I have a more unconventional request. I want this type of music, but with lyrics in French.
