Records to play at a candlelit dinner party

By Steve Brooks, Torche.


Talk Talk
Spirit of Eden
EMI

This is my all-time favorite record! I’d play it just because it’s mellow enough to be the background for excellent conversation.


Michael Brook & Pieter Nooten
Sleeps with the Fishes
Nesak

I think I’d pick almost anything from Michael Brook, but I love this one the most. Perfect for red wine and hors d’ oeuvres


Ray Lynch
Deep Breakfast
Windham Hill

This would be the soundtrack for FOOD COMA. 


Diamanda Galas
Plague Mass (1984 End of the Epidemic)
Mute

I’d throw this one on for shock value…just for a couple of minutes to wake everyone up after digesting with Ray Lynch.


Donovan
Donovan’s Greatest Hits
Epic/Legacy

Donovan is perfect dinner music. It might even get ya desert!

    WOW, I actually know about Ray Lynch’s, “Deep Breakfast.” Total New age.

    Big ups to Steve Brooks and Torche. I still need to pick up the new EP.
