1	The Real Kansas City (1925) more music like this by Various Artists Put together to coincide with the release of Robert Altman's film Kansas City, this sampler traces the evolution of Kansas City jazz from 1925-39. Certainly recommended much more for general listeners than for completists, this CD has fine music (fortunately programmed in chronological order) from Bennie Moten, Jesse Stone, Julia Lee, George E. ... see all copies from $4.90! new only from $11.06!
2	An Anthology of Big Band Swing (1930-1955) (1931) more music like this by Various Artists This two-CD set is an unusually successful sampler. Although there are a few hits among the 40 selections, many obscurities are also included, and not all of the big bands represented are major names, such as Tiny Bradshaw, Noble Sissle, Spud Murphy, Teddy Powell and Jan Savitt. The emphasis is very much on jazz, and this worthy reissue is ... see all copies from $25.19! new only from $25.19!
3	Andy Kirk & The 12 Clouds of Joy (1994) more music like this by Andy Kirk Amidst the day's heavy hitters -- Ellington, Basie, and Goodman -- Andy Kirk's band made a name for themselves with some of the tightest swing of the '30s. Their prime stretch came in the latter half of the decade, as pianist and arranger Mary Lou Williams became a dominant force in the group. This fine ASV overview tells part of the story with 22 ... see all copies from $11.30! new only from $11.30!
4	Ceux du Dehors (1981) more music like this by Univers Zéro The third full-length release from Univers Zero (disregarding the limited-release Crawling Wind EP, which Cuneiform re-released with bonus tracks in 2001), finds the group continuing to evolve. Group members may have realized that their previous release, the perversely brilliant Heresie, was a dead end of sorts, because on this new recording they ... see all copies from $12.53! new only from $12.53!
5	Golden Greats: Greatest Swing (2002) more music like this by Various Artists This is a three-CD budget collection of many great swing tunes performed by the biggest names in swing music. The sound quality is good, as are the performances, but the lack of discographical information could be frustrating to jazz aficionados. Sean Westergaard, All Music Guide see all copies from $5.49! new only from $5.49!
6	Heatwave (1986) more music like this by Univers Zéro For years after its release, Heatwave was presumed to be the Univers Zero group finale, until the band re-emerged over a decade later with The Hard Quest in 1999. On Heatwave, the transition from acoustic chamber music to electric rock is complete, and the somewhat uncertain steps of Uzed, Univers Zero's previous release, have become purposeful ... see all copies from $13.70! new only from $13.70!

10	I'm in the Mood for Swing (1999) more music like this by Various Artists I'm in the Mood for Swing is a decent single-disc collection containing 24 hits from the big-band era. All of the recordings are the original hit versions, presented as recorded in glorious mono between 1932 and 1946. Among the highlights are "Jumpin' at the Woodside" by Count Basie, "Tuxedo Junction" by Glenn Miller, "It Don't Mean a Thing (If It ... see all copies from $11.03! new only from $11.03!
11	Crawling Wind (1983) more music like this by Univers Zéro Most Univers Zero recordings originally appeared on the small French Atem and Cyronic labels, and were not exactly easy to obtain at the time of their initial release. But the long out of print Crawling Wind was recorded as an EP for Eastern Works, the Japanese division of Recommended Records (ReR), and it has achieved a kind of cult status over ... see all copies from $13.70! new only from $13.70!
12	Live (2006) more music like this by Univers Zéro "Xenantaya," the nearly 13-minute opener on Univers Zero's Live CD, includes all the hallmarks of an extended-form UZ piece: a mysterious and ominous air, melodic themes and variations suggesting Central European folk music, and dramatic dynamic shifts from one section to the next, all driven ever forward by composer Daniel Denis' restlessly ... see all copies from $13.70! new only from $13.70!
13 view cover	Mary's Idea (1936) more music like this by Andy Kirk This well-conceived CD has 20 of the most rewarding recordings by Andy Kirk's Orchestra. Ending a five-year period when they were off record, the big band (which had recently relocated to New York from Kansas City) showed that it could outswing most of its competitiors, due largely to Mary Lou Williams arrangements and piano playing, the ... see all copies from $13.37!
