1	Ken Burns Jazz: The Story of America's Music (2000) more music like this by Various Artists In conjunction with documentary filmmaker Ken Burns' ten-part 2000 PBS special, Columbia/Legacy and Verve teamed up to issue a special series of reissues covering much of the history of 20th century jazz. The central release of this program is the five-CD box set Ken Burns Jazz: The Story of America's Music, its 94 selections covering the history ... see all copies from $25.66! new only from $49.90!
2	Song for My Father (1964) more music like this by Horace Silver One of Blue Note's greatest mainstream hard bop dates, Song for My Father is Horace Silver's signature LP and the peak of a discography already studded with classics. Silver was always a master at balancing jumping rhythms with complex harmonies for a unique blend of earthiness and sophistication, and Song for My Father has perhaps the most ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $10.50!
3	The Best of Horace Silver, Vol. 2 (1964) more music like this by Horace Silver Taking up where volume one's '50s set left off, this second helping of Horace Silver's Blue Note output takes in some of the pianist's prime work from 1964-1970. Starting with the venerable title track to his most popular release, Song for My Father, the nine cuts include other cherry-picked treats off of Cape Verdean Blues ("Nutville," "Pretty ... see all copies from $14.56! new only from $14.56!
4	Blowin' the Blues Away (1959) more music like this by Horace Silver Blowin' the Blues Away is one of Horace Silver's all-time Blue Note classics, only upping the ante established on Finger Poppin' for tightly constructed, joyfully infectious hard bop. This album marks the peak of Silver's classic quintet with trumpeter Blue Mitchell, tenor saxophonist Junior Cook, bassist Gene Taylor, and drummer Louis Hayes; it's ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $11.13!
5	You Gotta Take a Little Love (1969) more music like this by Horace Silver One of the final Horace Silver Quintet Blue Note albums, this somewhat forgotten LP, dedicated to "the Brotherhood of Men," is an instrumental set that introduced six new compositions by the pianist/leader (none of which caught on as standards) along with Bennie Maupin's "Lovely's Daughter." Maupin (on tenor and flute), trumpeter Randy Brecker, ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $11.13!
6	The Jody Grind (1966) more music like this by Horace Silver Following the subtly modern bent of much of The Cape Verdean Blues, Horace Silver recommitted himself to his trademark "funky jazz" sound on The Jody Grind. Yet he also consciously chose to keep a superbly advanced front line, with players like trumpeter Woody Shaw (retained from the Cape Verdean session), altoist/flutist James Spaulding, and ... see all copies from $11.12! new only from $11.12!
7	6 Pieces of Silver (1956) more music like this by Horace Silver Quintet The first classic album by the Horace Silver Quintet, this CD is highlighted by "Señor Blues" (heard in three versions, including a later vocal rendition by Bill Henderson) and "Cool Eyes." The early Silver quintet was essentially the Jazz Messengers of the year before (with trumpeter Donald Byrd, tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley, and bassist Doug ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $11.13!
8	Paris Blues, 1962 (1962) more music like this by Horace Silver Horace Silver is not only important because of his contributions as a pianist/composer; he's also been a first-rate talent scout (much like Miles Davis, Chick Corea, and Art Blakey). From Donald Byrd to Joe Henderson to Tom Harrell, so many of Silver's sidemen have come to be recognized as serious jazz heavyweights. The hard bopper led his share ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
9	Greatest Hits (1996) more music like this by Horace Silver Greatest Hits is a budget-priced, seven-track selection of some of Horace Silver's best-known songs and crossover hits, and while there are plenty of essential items missing, it still functions as a good, affordable sampler, featuring such familiar cuts as "Senor Blues," "Song for My Father," "The Preacher," "The Cape Verdean Blues" and "The Jody ... see all copies from $5.62! new only from $5.62!
10	The Tokyo Blues (1962) more music like this by Horace Silver Pianist Horace Silver had his most stable group between 1960 and 1964, when his sidemen included trumpeter Blue Mitchell, tenor saxophonist Junior Cook, bassist Gene Taylor and drummer Roy Brooks. For Tokyo Blues (a straight CD reissue of the original LP), Joe Harris (listed as John Harris, Jr.) is in Brooks place. The quintet performs four Silver ... see all copies from $11.13! new only from $11.13!
11 view cover	Finger Poppin' with the Horace Silver Quintet (1959) more music like this by Horace Silver Quintet Finger Poppin' was the first album Horace Silver recorded with the most celebrated version of his quintet, which featured trumpeter Blue Mitchell, tenor saxophonist Junior Cook, bassist Gene Taylor, and (this time around) drummer Louis Hayes. It's also one of Silver's all-time classics, perfectly blending the pianist's advanced, groundbreaking ... see all copies from $11.13! new only from $11.13!
12 view cover	The Instrumental History of Jazz (1997) more music like this by Various Artists It's hard to fault this two-disc, enhanced CD collection. Starting with Scott Joplin's "Maple Leaf Rag" and roping in tracks from King Oliver, Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Horace Silver, and John Coltrane, all the way to modern jazz musicians like Spyro Gyra and Geri Allen, this set covers a pretty ... see all copies from $31.78! new only from $31.78!
13 view cover	Doin' the Thing (At the Village Gate) [RVG Edition] (2006) more music like this by Horace Silver This live set (recorded at the Village Gate) finds pianist/composer Horace Silver and his most acclaimed quintet (the one with trumpeter Blue Mitchell, tenor saxophonist Junior Cook, bassist Gene Taylor, and drummer Roy Brooks) stretching out on four selections, including his new song, "Filthy McNasty." There are two bonus tracks on the Rudy Van ... see all copies from $6.94! new only from $11.13!
14 view cover	It's Got to Be Funky (1993) more music like this by Horace Silver After a 13-year period in which he mostly recorded for his private Silveto label, pianist/composer Horace Silver was rediscovered by Columbia for this session. Rather than featuring a standard quintet as he did throughout his career, the funky pianist is heard with his trio, a six-piece brass ensemble and guest tenors Red Holloway, Eddie Harris ... see all copies from $5.00!
15 view cover	Serenade to a Soul Sister (1968) more music like this by Horace Silver One of the last great Horace Silver albums for Blue Note, Serenade to a Soul Sister is also one of the pianist's most infectiously cheerful, good-humored outings. It was recorded at two separate early-1968 sessions with two mostly different quintets, both featuring trumpeter Charles Tolliver and alternating tenor saxophonists Stanley Turrentine ... see all copies from $11.13! new only from $11.13!
16 view cover	Silver's Serenade (1963) more music like this by Horace Silver Horace Silver's LP Silver's Serenade is a swan song; it was the final recording with his most famous quintet, which included drummer Roy Brooks, bassist Gene Taylor, saxophonist Junior Cook, and trumpeter Blue Mitchell. The band had made five previous recordings for the label, all of them successful. The program here is comprised of Silver ... see all copies from $5.98! new only from $5.98!
17 view cover	Further Explorations by the Horace Silver Quintet (1958) more music like this by Horace Silver For a brief time, tenor saxophonist Clifford Jordan and trumpeter Art Farmer were the frontline of the Horace Silver Quintet. This 1997 CD reissue finds the group (which also includes bassist Teddy Kotick and drummer Louis Hayes) performing five of Silver's lesser-known originals and the standard "Ill Wind." The lyrical Farmer and the up-and ... see all copies from $11.25! new only from $11.25!
18 view cover	In Pursuit of the 27th Man (1970) more music like this by Horace Silver This obscure Horace Silver LP features two separate sessions by the pianist/composer.

The other four numbers feature vibraphonist David Friedman in a quartet with Silver, Cranshaw and Roker, a very ... see all copies from $11.13! new only from $11.13!
19 view cover	The Best of Horace Silver, Vol. 1 (1953) more music like this by Horace Silver Taking in Horace Silver's fertile '50s stretch (volume two covers the '60s), this Blue Note best-of disc is the perfect introductory set for listeners new to the hard bop giant. One of the first of the soul-jazz innovators (listen to that gospel-fired left hand and all that dancefloor-friendly material), Silver also wrote some of the most original ... see all copies from $14.56! new only from $14.56!
20 view cover	The Stylings of Silver (1957) more music like this by Horace Silver The 1957 Horace Silver Quintet (featuring trumpeter Art Farmer and tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley) is in top form on this date, particularly on "My One and Only Love" and their famous version of "Home Cookin'." All of Silver's Blue Note quintet recordings are consistently superb and swinging and, although not essential, this is a very enjoyable set ... see all copies from $11.13! new only from $11.13!
21 view cover	Jazz Essentials [EMI Special Markets] (1995) more music like this by Various Artists Jazz Essentials delivers just what the title promises, collecting classic jazz performances from Clifford Brown, Milt Jackson, and Bud Powell into a budget-priced CD. Wes Montgomery's "Wes's Tune," John Coltrane's "Exotica," Miles Davis' "Boplicity," and Horace Silver's "Doodlin'" round out this worthwhile and affordable jazz primer. Heather ... see all copies from $5.40! new only from $5.40!
22 view cover	The Very Best (2005) more music like this by Horace Silver As part of Blue Note's Very Best series, pianist Horace Silver is spotlighted on eight tracks recorded between 1954 and 1966. This set includes the Silver-penned classics "The Preacher," "Song for My Father," "Doodlin'," and "The Jody Grind." Silver's backing bands include fellow Blue Note alumni Kenny Dorham, Hank Mobley, Blue Mitchell, Joe ... see all copies from $11.12! new only from $11.13!
23 view cover	Music for Lovers (2006) more music like this by Horace Silver Here are ten tracks showcasing the utter beauty of Horace Silver's playing -- and in some cases, composing -- jazz ballads. These tunes are lushly romantic and utterly soulful. Recorded between 1952 and 1968, this collection features such notable Silver compositions as "Peace," "Shirl," "Sweet Stuff," "Lonely Woman," and the gorgeous "Next Time I ... see all copies from $11.04! new only from $11.04!

25 view cover	Horace-Scope (1960) more music like this by Horace Silver Horace-Scope is the third album by Horace Silver's classic quintet -- or most of it, actually, as drummer Louis Hayes was replaced by Roy Brooks starting with this session. The rhythmic drive and overall flavor of the group are still essentially the same, though, and Horace-Scope continues the tight, sophisticated-yet-swinging blueprint for hard ... see all copies from $11.12! new only from $11.13!
