Also if you like jazz give Freddie Hubbard and Coltrane though i suppose you may have one or both of those artists they're great. Especially Freddie's earlier jazz!
These guys are a bit different, but something about their sound is cool...kind of southern rock...I've not heard lots of their stuff, but some is darn good.

Jazz Blues you might like Mike Stern. He played with Miles and Blood Sweat and Tears to name a few. He's a good writer, nice balads and grooves that rip.
Are you familiar with Derek Trucks? He plays with The Allman Brothers but his solo and guest work really shines far above. He's been playing with everybody and can construct a solo as well as anybody I can think of.
Have you tried Pandora? It's a great way of finding new music that fits your tastes.
Still outlawed in Canada. grrr This was my greatest tool for finding new bands.
Kari, you listen to BoC, cool. I am so relaxed after listening to their stuff. I love listening to it alone in the dark lying on my sofa, it puts me in a hypnotic state. I'm due for a session. ;]

I love Boards of Canada. They're amazing, so hypnotic, and yet, so...just great stuff.
Stuff with no vocals is what I prefer in Jazz. I like Jazz Fusion, and stuff centered on guitar (I have been known to play a little) and trumpet. One of my favorite albums right now is by Christian Scott.
