help with theme music for a cd: Theme night

[JOL]

I've put together four cds based on the theme of night and I want to make at least another two but have come to an impass trying to find music that relates to the theme. Most of the songs that I've used have the word night in the lyric somewhere or related to it such as twilight, darkness, dream ect. I'm looking for music that is 126 bpm or less that was released between the mid 70's to mid 80's. Below is the playlist of what I've done so far. Any suggestion on more music would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
