1	Stomping at the Savoy [Box Set] (2006) more music like this by Chick Webb & His Orchestra Released in 1996, Proper Box 97 contains 99 sides recorded under the leadership of master drummer Chick Webb beginning with the session of March 30, 1931 and ending with a recording made live at the Southland Cafe in Boston on May 4, 1939, a little over a month before he succumbed to spinal tuberculosis at the tender age of 30 (his last words ... see all copies from $15.00! new only from $23.04!
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	The Thirties (2000) more music like this by Various Artists British reissue label Flapper's compilation The Thirties is a generous selection of 25 songs from that decade. It is essentially a miscellaneous collection, consisting of many well-known songs, only a few of which are presented in their most popular recordings, with several curiosities and, as a nod to the country of origin, a distinct bias toward ... see all copies from $16.48! new only from $16.48!
4	Stompin' at the Savoy [ASV/Living Era] (2002) more music like this by Chick Webb Diminutive fireball Chick Webb led the most explosive swing band of the '30s, and though the group was far too active to enter the studio as much as they deserved, it's easier to sum up their recordings with a single disc. (In fact, the completist Classics series needed only two volumes to sum up Webb's decade behind the drums of his own band.) ... see all copies from $10.83! new only from $10.83!
5	Sing Me a Swing Song (1995) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald with the Chick Webb Orchestra see all copies from $16.31! new only from $16.31!
6	S' Wonderful: The Music of George Gershwin (1992) more music like this by Various Artists Released in 1992, Pearl Flapper's S' Wonderful: The Music of George Gershwin is similar to this label's Rodgers & Hart collection; the two albums were issued concurrently. What's different about the Gershwin package is the predominance of one artist -- Fred Astaire -- who is heard in seven different performances, and the inclusion of one ... see all copies from $7.71! new only from $17.19!
7	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!
8	Harlem Saturday Night (2001) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $5.29! new only from $5.29!
9	Jazz Greats [Sony] (1995) more music like this by Various Artists This collection does a fair job of introducing the best-known jazz songs of the 20th century, including Louis Armstrong's "Mack the Knife," Dave Brubeck's "Take Five," Count Basie's "One O'Clock Jump" and Duke Ellington's "Satin Doll."

11 view cover	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!
12 view cover	Mr. Music Master (1993) more music like this by Hoagy Carmichael The most offbeat and proto-bohemian of the great songwriters who have contributed to the Great American Songbook, Hoagy Carmichael was as apt to write about actual places in memory, or the sheer passing of time or everyday tasks like doing laundry, as he was to spin out a traditional love song, and it has made his musical legacy a rich and varied ... see all copies from $9.70! new only from $16.48!

14 view cover	Spinnin' the Web (1929) more music like this by Chick Webb & His Orchestra Drummer Chick Webb led one of the finest swing bands of the 1930s but ironically his orchestra is today best-remembered for backing singer Ella Fitzgerald in her early days. This CD consists of 20 instrumentals (other than a Louis Bacon vocal on "Blues in My Heart" and Ward Pinkett's scatting on "Dog Bottom") and allows one to hear how strong a ... see all copies from $19.25!

17 view cover	Jazz Hits [Box Set] more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.74!
18 view cover	Rhythm Man (1992) more music like this by Chick Webb Along with units led by Fletcher Henderson and Luis Russell, Chick Webb's big band of the early '30s cut some of the smartest and most galvanizing swing of the era. Webb, of course, is best known for chaperoning Ella Fitzgerald's first stretch of stardom, but his instrumental work is not to be missed, especially considering a wealth of progressive ... see all copies from $16.39! new only from $16.39!
19 view cover	Songs of George & Ira Gershwin (1995) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $13.64! new only from $13.64!
20 view cover	Let's Swing [Box] (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Let's Swing is a pretty good collection of large-group swing and big-band hits of the '40s. Though it's aimed squarely at the swing-revival audience and includes less than ten tracks per disc, it does have such classics as "One O'Clock Jump" by Count Basie, "Take the 'A' Train" by Duke Ellington, "Why Don't You Do Right" by Benny Goodman, "Flying ... see all copies from $3.64!
21 view cover	Columbia Jazz Masterpiece Series: 1930s Big Band (193?) more music like this by Various Artists If this 16-song collection had been done a decade later, some of the cuts here might sound slightly cleaner, sharper, and richer -- but they still sound okay, and overall this is a fine sampler of jazz highlights from the Okeh, Columbia, Vocalion, and Brunswick labels. Stuck in among the big names -- such as Duke Ellington ("Lazy Rhapsody," with ... see all copies from $6.88!
22	Fabulous Thirties (1993) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $13.99!
23 view cover	Swing That Music [Smithsonian] (1929) more music like this by Various Artists The Smithsonian's four-disc tribute to the swing/big band era, compiled by the late, great Martin Williams, offers as comprehensive a look at the genre as possible from a general perspective. Williams featured great and lightweight bands, highly popular vocalists like Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra, dubious ones with large followings like Bob ... see all copies from $16.94!
24 view cover	Big Band Instrumentals: 16 Most Requested Songs (1992) more music like this by Various Artists Culled from the vaults of Columbia Records, Big Band Instrumentals: 16 Most Requested Songs is an excellent collection of the biggest hits and most popular songs from the big-band era. Although it isn't quite definitive, few samplers are as good and as entertaining as this one -- many songs casual fans will want are here, including Fletcher ... see all copies from $3.75! new only from $4.64!
25 view cover	Stomping at the Savoy: 1934/1939 (2000) more music like this by Chick Webb see all copies from $40.40!
