Enigma – Love Sensuality Devotion – Greatest Hits
Ray Charles – Genius Loves Company (various artists)
Facing Future – Israel “IZ” Kamakawiwo’ole – I just love this hawaiian’s sound, especially his version of “Over the Rainbow/Wonderful World” which, I’ve noticed, more than one recent movie has included this song in their movie/soundtrack.
