1	Hommage (2007) more music like this by Bill Holman Bill Holman has long been one of jazz's most inventive and creative arrangers. He finally began to get some recognition for his abilities beyond the West Coast in the early 21st century, despite having had a very productive career for over a half-century. On Hommage, most of which was recorded live at a West Coast jazz festival, he pays tribute to ... see all copies from $14.57! new only from $14.57!
2	The Bill Holman Band Live (2005) more music like this by Bill Holman Although Bill Holman is one of the all-time great arrangers and the leader of a stirring big band in the Los Angeles area, this was his first recording as a leader in seven years. Performed at a Maynard Ferguson tribute convention/festival put on by Ken Poston, the music played by the Bill Holman Orchestra is a little more boppish than usual for a ... see all copies from $14.57! new only from $14.57!
3	The Bill Holman Band (1987) more music like this by Bill Holman This JVC CD is a reissue of a late-'80s CD. Bill Holman has long been one of the top arrangers in jazz but, because he has not recorded all that many albums and because he is based in L.A., he tends to get overlooked in popularity polls. An innovative writer who features crowded yet swinging ensembles and charts that are both complex and colorful, ... see all copies from $39.26!
4	Back to Balboa: Tribute to Stan Keaton, Vol. 6 (2001) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $7.17! new only from $9.53!
5	West Coast Jazz in Hi Fi (1959) more music like this by Richie Kamuca with Bill Holman Originally recorded for the Hi Fi label, this CD reissue features tenor saxophonist Richie Kamuca as the main soloist on a variety of standards and basic material arranged by Bill Holman, who plays baritone with the octet. Also heard from are trumpeters Conte Candoli and Ed Leddy, trombonist Frank Rosolino, pianist Vince Guaraldi, bassist Monty ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
6	The Jazz Giants Play Sammy Cahn: It's Magic (1999) more music like this by Various Artists An excellent entry in Prestige's excellent Jazz Giants songbook series, The Jazz Giants Play Sammy Cahn: It's Magic largely lives up to the subtitle. At best, Cahn is at the front of the second string of the great pre-rock Tin Pan Alley songwriters, but this well-chosen collection hits the high points of his catalog. Cal Tjader's Latin-tinged ... see all copies from $10.90!
7	In a Jazz Orbit (1958) more music like this by Bill Holman Considering his talents, arranger Bill Holman has led relatively few recording sessions through the years. This formerly rare big-band set from 1958 (originally on the Andex label and reissued on CD by V.S.O.P.) features a 15-piece band filled with West Coast all-stars. Among the soloists on these five standards and four originals are trombonists ... see all copies from $14.31!
8	Strollin' (1991) more music like this by Charlie Shoemake with the Bill Holman Orchestra A 1991 session with saxophonist Charlie Shoemake heading both guest stars and the Bill Holman Orchestra. It's textbook West Coast cool and swing, with Shoemake, pianist Billy Childs, saxophonist Pete Christlieb, and guitarist Ron Eschete, among others, taking solo honors. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $13.79!
9	The Fabulous Bill Holman (1957) more music like this by Bill Holman Bill Holman's second album as a leader was originally released on Coral before being reissued on Sackville in 1979. The masterful arranger is heard taking some rare solos on tenor with a 16-piece group of top West Coast jazz players from the era. For the set, Holman rewrote two standards ("Airegin" and "You and I") and contributed a pair of ... see all copies from $14.00! new only from $17.88!
10	Bill Holman's Great Big Band (1960) more music like this by Bill Holman & His Orchestra This lesser-known effort from arranger Bill Holman, who is also heard on tenor, was his last recording as a big-band leader for some time. The brevity of the performances (none of the 11 songs are over 4½ minutes long, and several are under three minutes) is a bit disappointing, cutting down on the solo space, but the versions of such unusual ... see all copies from $14.00!
11	A View From the Side (1995) more music like this by Bill Holman Although he never seems to win any popularity polls, Bill Holman is among the most respected and unique arrangers of the last 40 years of the 20th century. This CD features his band of the mid-'90s, an outfit that includes many of the top Los Angeles-based musicians. Holman's writing is often colorfully overcrowded (rewarding repeated listenings) ... see all copies from $9.87!
12	Bill Holman (1954) more music like this by Bill Holman see all copies from $15.27!
13	50th Anniversary Celebration: The Best of Back to Balboa (1991) more music like this by Kenton Alumni Band see all copies from $14.79! new only from $14.79!
14 view cover	Jive for Five (1958) more music like this by Bill Holman For a brief time, tenor saxophonist Bill Holman and drummer Mel Lewis led a hard-swinging quintet based in Los Angeles. Trumpeter Lee Katzman, pianist Jimmy Rowles and bassist Wilford Middlebrook complete the group, a band that benefits greatly from the arrangements of Holman. Rowles contributed "502 Blues Theme," Holman brought in two songs, and ... see all copies from $12.70! new only from $12.70!
15 view cover	Brilliant Corners: The Music of Thelonious Monk (1997) more music like this by Bill Holman Bill Holman's exploration of ten Thelonious Monk tunes is purposely a lot more Holman than Monk. Rather than trying to re-create the great pianist/composer's piano solos or small-group renditions of his songs, Holman picked out numbers that interested him and then avoided listening to Thelonious' versions. The one trait of Thelonious Monk's that ... see all copies from $24.93! new only from $24.93!
