1	Great Ladies of Jazz [Rebound] (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Though there are only 12 tracks on this collection, the selections are impeccable: two standards by Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughan and Dinah Washington each, plus individual tracks by Lena Horne, Nina Simone, Abbey Lincoln and Shirley Horn. ~ Keith Farley, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.99!
2	You Gotta Pay the Band (1991) more music like this by Abbey Lincoln & Stan Getz add to wishlist Stan Getz is featured on one of his final recordings on this excellent Abbey Lincoln CD; Getz's cool tenor fits in very well with Lincoln's voice, making one wish that they had met up previously. With pianist Hank Jones, bassist Charlie Haden, drummer Mark Johnson, and (on two songs) Maxine Roach's viola completing the group, it is not surprising ... see all copies from $3.43! new only from $10.44!
3	A Turtle's Dream (1994) more music like this by Abbey Lincoln add to wishlist see all copies from $8.74! new only from $8.74!
4	Over the Years (2000) more music like this by Abbey Lincoln add to wishlist Recorded mostly in New York, Over the Years is aimed at summing up Abbey Lincoln's long career. Joining her are excellent, but not so well-known performers, plus the giant sax player Joe Lovano. But it is Lincoln's special interpretative powers that carry the day, as one would expect. The play list is rather unusual even for an iconoclast like ... see all copies from $2.09! new only from $17.28!
5	Abbey Sings Abbey (2007) more music like this by Abbey Lincoln add to wishlist Vocalist Abbey Lincoln's voice is the sound of the earth yearning for your soul. She is lust turned to wisdom. She is diva turned to soothsayer. In her mid-seventies at the time of this recording, Lincoln is the embodiment of a life lived as a performer and lover and now a storyteller through song. Abbey Sings Abbey finds the songstress revisiting ... see all copies from $2.05! new only from $15.34!
6	The Complete Cole Porter Songbooks (1993) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist This is not and cannot be the Complete Cole Porter Songbooks, but it's a marvelous collection of 48 timeless jazz interpretations drawn from the Verve catalog. Recorded between 1951 and 1988, these standards, ballads and show tunes are rendered by some 15 vocalists, many of whom appear twice, and about 13 instrumental groups. In addition to the ... see all copies from $32.81! new only from $32.81!
7	Complete Rodgers & Hart Songbook (1996) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist The classic songs of Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart are rendered on this outstanding three-disc set, which features vocalists like Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Dinah Washington, Shirley Horn, Tony Bennett and Cassandra Wilson. Among the spotlighted instrumentalists are Charlie Parker, Coleman Hawkins, Art Tatum, Stan Getz, Bill ... see all copies from $27.82! new only from $27.82!
8	A Night Out With Verve (2000) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist A Night Out With Verve highlights five decades of remarkable jazz taken from the Verve catalog, spread out over four discs titled "Wining," "Dining," "Dancing," and "Romancing." This budget-priced box set includes 65 performances from jazz luminaries including Oscar Peterson, Sonny Rollins, Michel Legrand, Sarah Vaughan, Stan Getz, Louis Armstrong ... see all copies from $23.32! new only from $24.69!
9	Straight Ahead (1961) more music like this by Abbey Lincoln add to wishlist Reissued several times since it originally came out on a Candid LP, this is one of Abbey Lincoln's greatest recordings. It is a testament to the credibility of her very honest music (and her talents) that Lincoln's sidemen on this date include the immortal tenor saxophonist Coleman Hawkins (who takes a memorable solo on "Blue Monk"), Eric Dolphy ... see all copies from $6.44! new only from $9.66!
10	Who Used to Dance (1996) more music like this by Abbey Lincoln add to wishlist Abbey Lincoln, 65 at the time of this recording, still had a reasonably strong voice at this point in her career, and although she showed signs of mellowing now and then, she was still capable of performing fiery musical statements. This Verve release mostly emphasizes slow tempos and melancholy moods. The nostalgic "Who Used to Dance" (featuring ... see all copies from $4.00! new only from $13.86!
11	Abbey Is Blue (1959) more music like this by Abbey Lincoln add to wishlist Abbey Lincoln's third of three Riverside albums (all of these recommended sets have been reissued on CD) directly precedes her more adventurous work with drummer (and then-husband) Max Roach. With fine backup from trumpeter Kenny Dorham, pianist Wynton Kelly, Les Spann (doubling on guitar and flute), bassist Sam Jones and drummer Philly Joe Jones) ... see all copies from $8.16! new only from $8.16!
12	Wholly Earth (1999) more music like this by Abbey Lincoln add to wishlist Lincoln's place among the pantheon of great jazz singers is undisputed, but this recording finds her voice past its best years. The ravages of time have taken their toll, and the result is pleasant but not her best work. The drop in strength is especially evident in the opening duet with a much younger Maggie Brown. Still, the album has many fine ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.44!
13	It's Me (2003) more music like this by Abbey Lincoln add to wishlist In a return to the orchestrated settings that she had explored nearly a decade earlier on A Turtle's Dream, Lincoln performs a set rich in variety, with plenty of original tunes that more than hold their own amidst a scattering of classic standards. Whether working with or without strings, she maintains a sophisticated and intimate tunefulness; ... see all copies from $8.79! new only from $8.79!
14	Great Jazz Vocalists Sing the Gershwin Songbook (1992) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist In the pantheon of jazz singers, the great tunes of George and Ira Gershwin have always been favorites. Special vocalists can make these compositions their own, elevating each number by the way they phrase, emote, or interpret without reinterpreting. That innate ability to take a well-worn standard and invigorate it is well documented within these ... see all copies from $5.70! new only from $11.46!
15	Enja 20th Anniversary Sampler (1992) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Enja 20th Anniversary Sampler celebrates the label's tenure with performances by some of Enja's best-loved artists, including Gust Tsilis, Mitch Watkins, and Tommy Flanagan. Wayne Krantz and John Scofield, two of the label's jazz guitarists par excellence contribute "Sossity, You're a Woman" and "Yawn," both of which rank among the collection's ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.95!
16	Abbey Sings Billie [Enja] (1993) more music like this by Abbey Lincoln add to wishlist see all copies from $12.48! new only from $12.48!
17	My Funny Valentine: The Rodgers & Hart Songbook (1993) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist One of the choicest of Verve's many venerable songbook releases, My Funny Valentine spotlights some of the jazz canon's best moments in song; and how could it be otherwise, considering the program features the core of Rodgers & Hart's monumental song canon? That's why it's an all-star affair, with such singing royalty as Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah ... see all copies from $14.10! new only from $14.10!
18	We'll Have Manhattan: The Rodgers & Hart Songbook (1993) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Rodgers & Hart get the royal treatment from Verve with this fine mix of classy vocal jazz interpretations. Tapping mostly the '50s and '60s, the 16-track set includes sage readings by such heavy-hitters as Dinah Washington, Sarah Vaughan, Bing Crosby, Ella Fitzgerald, and Joe Williams. The disc also features a few modern takes by Abbey Lincoln and ... see all copies from $1.99!
19	The Riverside Records Story (1997) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist The Riverside Records Story is essentially Orrin Keepnews' baby -- and why not, for the grizzled jazz producer/journalist co-founded the label, ran it from day one in 1952 until it suddenly went bankrupt in 1964, and produced almost all of the original sessions. Riverside's current custodians at Fantasy had Keepnews select and sequence four CDs' ... see all copies from $31.49! new only from $52.64!
20	Esquire Jazz Collection: Voice of the Soul (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Blue Note's Esquire Jazz Collection: Voice of the Soul collects original recordings from the '40s and '50s by some of the most inspired singers that recorded for the premier jazz label. Among the 12 tracks on this volume are Sarah Vaughan's "'Round Midnight," Joe Williams' "Every Day I Have the Blues," Chet Baker's "But Not for Me," and June ... see all copies from $1.99!
21	Great Ladies Of Jazz (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from $1.99!
22	The Cool and the Smooth: A Seasonal Collection of Classic Smooth Jazz (2000) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist While not a "proper" holiday package, The Cool and the Smooth could provide seasonal relief from "Winter Wonderland" or "The Christmas Song" in December while remaining entertaining all year long. These classic jazz artists are collected on 15 cool tracks based on a loose seasonal theme. Duke Ellington's "Passion Flower," Lee Konitz's "Autumn ... see all copies from $9.36! new only from $9.36!
23	Songs of Love, Peace, Understanding and a Little Heartache (1997) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
