VA - Laid Back Rock (A Butterboy Compilation) CD1+CD2+CD3 + Best Of...

Laid Back is an adjective that defines being relaxed and/or easy-going. Often when we listen to an artists album there will be a great mellow track that begs further listening. Laid back music to me can be found in all genres of music. In rock music there are countless examples of music that presents as placid, peaceful, tranquil and serene. I particularly love it when the music is unhurried and mellow where the pace is slow enough to leave space for the listener to inherit the music being offered.

Here are my laid back rock selections, 84 tracks presented over 3 track lists. Enjoy these laid-back music rhythms.

    1. Hi mrRadio
      Good to hear from you.
      To be honest this was done a bit selfishly as these these are songs I enjoy (amongst the other hundreds that were not included here). Also didn't want to be be too cliche. Yes, its is an eclectic lot. I think one could listen to any of the three discs and find either relaxing (mostly).

      Cheers
