Let's keep things underground, here's some hip-hop with beautiful instrumentals from the vinyl album "Grotto" by Wilma Vritra, which features some really nice cover art:

Another great find, as an unusual blend of jazz/funk/soul, electro, and world music influences from the vinyl album "Livingstone" by the band Jungle By Night, with a nice cover showing cubic pyrite crystals:

Jungle by night - Pompette


Jungle by night - Ja Precis


Jungle by night - Stormvogel

Glad you enjoyed it, here's another one I was thinking you might like given your taste for jazzy sounds:

Some swing from the 1975 album "Gems" by Joe Venuti And George Barnes (with some quartz crystals on the vinyl's cover):

Joe Venuti and George Barnes - I'll never be the same


Joe Venuti and George Barnes - Oh, baby!

Here's another fun gemological related find, that is the funk/soul vinyl album "I'm In Love With You" by the band called Detroit Emeralds (cover drawing inspired from a faceted emerald):

Detroit Emeralds - You're getting a little too smart


Detroit Emeralds - Watcha gonna wear tomorrow
