1	Brazilliance, Vol. 1 (1953) more music like this by Laurindo Almeida with Bud Shank More than seven years before Stan Getz and Charlie Byrd introduced the bossa nova of Antonio Carlos Jobim to American audiences, guitarist Laurindo Almeida and altoist Bud Shank (in a quartet with bassist Harry Babasin and drummer Roy Harte) recorded the intriguing music heard on this CD reissue. The performances are very close to bossa nova in ... see all copies from $10.79! new only from $10.79!
2	The L.A. Four Scores! (1974) more music like this by The L.A. Four Altoist Bud Shank (who doubles on flute) and acoustic guitarist Laurindo Almeida first teamed up in 1954 to make a couple of albums called Brazilliance that hinted at but greatly predated bossa nova. Shank and Almeida came together 20 years later to form the L.A. Four, a quartet also including bassist Ray Brown and drummer Shelly Manne. Their ... see all copies from $4.79! new only from $4.79!
3	Improvisations (1962) more music like this by Ravi Shankar/Paul Horn/Bud Shank First released in 1961, Improvisations features some ahead-of-the-curve jazz-Indian fusion, thanks to Ravi Shankar's collaboration with bassist Gary Peacock and saxophonist Bud Shank. The album also includes Shankar's improvisations on the theme he wrote for the film "Pather Panchali," by Indian filmmaker Satyajit Ray, as well as the three-part ... see all copies from $7.29! new only from $7.29!
4	America the Beautiful (1991) more music like this by Shorty Rogers with Bud Shank and the Lighthouse All Stars The 1991 version of the Lighthouse All-Stars gave trumpeter Shorty Rogers and altoist Bud Shank top billing.

6	Live at the Haig (1956) more music like this by Bud Shank Altoist Bud Shank recorded frequently as a leader during 1954-1969 for Richard Bock's Pacific Jazz and World Pacific labels, but very few of those diverse records (other than his collaborations with guitarist Laurindo Almeida) are currently available. An exception is this CD reissue (on Choice) of a live set by his 1956 group for the obscure ... see all copies from $9.82! new only from $9.82!

8	Crystal Comments (1979) more music like this by Bud Shank with Bill Mays and Alan Broadbent Although Bud Shank has since given up the flute, his playing on the instrument was at its peak in the late 1970s. On this unusual trio set, he sticks to flute while joined by both pianist Bill Mays and Alan Broadbent on electric piano; the keyboardists switch instruments on "How Are Things In Glocca Morra." Despite the odd instrumentation, the ... see all copies from $11.49!

11 view cover	Brazilliance, Vol. 2 (1958) more music like this by Laurindo Almeida with Bud Shank Five years after guitarist Laurindo Almeida and altoist Bud Shank had a regular quartet, documented what could be considered the first bossa nova recordings (Brazilliance, Vol. 1), and then disbanded, they had a reunion.

12 view cover	New Gold (1995) more music like this by Bud Shank Sextet Bud Shank assembled a pianoless sextet made up of West Coast musicians for this 1993 studio date, including a front line consisting of the alto saxophonist and leader with trumpeter Conte Candoli, tenor and soprano saxophonist Bill Perkins, baritone saxophonist Jack Nimitz, and a rhythm section that includes bassist and composer John Clayton and ... see all copies from $13.90! new only from $13.90!
13 view cover	Beyond the Red Door (2007) more music like this by Bud Shank & Bill Mays Bud Shank and Bill Mays first joined forces back in the '70s, but the alto saxophonist's opportunities to use one of his favorite pianists diminished when Mays moved to the East Coast. This reunion is a fun-filled duo date with many playful moments, starting with the jubilant take of "The Red Door." Mays' idea to combine two haunting ballads in ... see all copies from $14.19! new only from $14.19!

16 view cover	Sunshine Express (1976) more music like this by Bud Shank Recorded during a period when he was gradually returning to jazz from a studio career, Bud Shank (who was a member of the L.A.

20 view cover	This Bud's for You (1984) more music like this by Bud Shank Originally known as a cool-toned altoist and occasional flutist, Bud Shank's playing from this recording forward surprised many listeners.

Assisted by pianist Kenny Barron, bassist Ron Carter, and drummer Al ... see all copies from $5.00!
21 view cover	Jazz-Club: Alto Sax (1952) more music like this by Various Artists The Alto Sax volume of theJazz-Club series is organized in an individual, perhaps provocative way that illustrates the dominant influence of one man, pro or con, over an entire generation of alto players, all born between 1923 and 1933. It starts out with "Now's the Time" in the hands of Charlie Parker, the fountainhead of bop on the alto, and ... see all copies from $5.97!
22 view cover	Montage (1981) more music like this by The L.A. 4 Montage is a good name for an L.A. Four recording, because the group (Bud Shank on flute and alto, guitarist Laurindo Almeida, bassist Ray Brown and drummer Jeff Hamilton) consistently mixed together different elements to gain its own sound. Included on this date are classical themes by Claude Debussy and Heitor Villa-Lobos, three group originals ... see all copies from $44.99!

Four (guitarist Laurindo Almeida, Bud Shank on alto and flute, bassist Ray Brown and drummer Jeff Hamilton) recorded their eighth and final album. The band and its concept had not run out of gas, but Shank was soon to give up the flute altogether and play a more forceful brand of straight-ahead ... see all copies from $32.49!
24 view cover	Watch What Happens (1978) more music like this by L.A. 4 For their third recording, the L.A. Four had drummer Jeff Hamilton permanently taking Shelly Manne's place but otherwise utilized their original players (altoist-flutist Bud Shank, guitarist Laurindo Almeida and bassist Ray Brown).
