A lot of classical music is soothing, IMO. I have a set of two CDs - think I got them from one of the mail-order "clubs" years ago - that is called Midnight Adagios. I don't like ALL the songs, but there are a lot of good ones. I think any Adagios tend to be more soothing than some other types of classical.

Enya, Secret Garden, and some other Celtic & New Age groups often have very soothing music too. I made a mixed CD of a bunch of those types of songs for when I was in labor.

OK, I just did a quick search on Amazon.com. If you search under "baby sleep" there's a lot of CDs listed. (If you haven't looked at CDs on Amazon before, here's a tip - click on the CD you're interested in, scroll about halfway down the page, and they usually have 30 second clips of some or all of the songs on the CD.)

Good luck!
