The Congos - Heart of the Congos (1977)
Bloody brilliant dubz: Lee Scratch Perry behind the production module of course does the whole thing excellent justice, but this would still be rather lethal in the relaxation department regardless of the guy's involvement.
Little Anthony and the Imperials - Reflections (1967)
Classy 50's-esque Frank Sinatra soundscaping meets Otis Redding croonery in this top class little record from the golden age of psychedelic soul. Gorgeous with a capital G for sure.
Asia - Arena (1996)
Most people know this group as prog. rock dinosaurs pulling of embarrassingly bad 80's rock for 20 years straight. This album, as far as I know in any case, is a surprisingly awesome and interesting exception in the band's discography: classical structures, some Latino and reggae touches and a fair amount of classic Hammond rock a-la Black Sabbath are melded with some fairly top form AOR songwriting, made legit in a sense thanks to the awesome vocal talents of John Payne.
So what is this then? Well, think Magnum meets The Police circa
Reggatta de Blanc and you'll be on the right track. Excellent and underrated all the way through.
