1	Songs That Got Us Through WW2 (2000) more music like this by Various Artists This excellent collection of songs from the "War Years" includes The Andrews Sisters, Frank Sinatra, the Dorsey Brothers, and Harry James, among others. It's great for the novice. Kenneth M. Cassidy, All Music Guide see all copies from $6.99! new only from $10.76!
2	Those Were Our Songs: Music of World War II (2001) more music like this by Various Artists World War II and big-band pop-era compilations are released almost as regularly as Christmas albums, and the glut has caused more harm than good; it seems any good ones are quickly swallowed up by the racks full of short, ill-advised, uninformative collections. Though any single label could never do justice to the war years, with a little clever ... see all copies from $18.35! new only from $18.35!
3	G.I. Jukebox: Songs from World War II (1998) more music like this by Various Artists G.I. Jukebox: Songs from World War II is an excellent single-disc collection of World War II hits, both those related to the action ("G.I. Jive," "There'll Be a Hot Time in the Town of Berlin, " "Comin' in on a Wing and a Prayer"), and much simpler fare ("Tangerine, " "Rum and Coca-Cola, " "On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe"). Each is the ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
4	Capitol Collectors Series (1943) more music like this by Jo Stafford An exquisite collection of Stafford's most memorable love songs from the '40s, it comes complete with extensive liner notes and impressive sound. Includes "I Love You," "Long Ago (And Far Away)," and "Some Enchanted Evening." Stephen Thomas Erlewine & Bil Carpenter, All Music Guide see all copies from $8.74! new only from $10.79!
5	The Old Rugged Cross (2001) more music like this by Jo Stafford & Gordon McCrae The EMI Gold issue The Old Rugged Cross collects the original LPs Whispering Hope and Peace in the Valley, a pair of spiritual sets recorded during 1962-1963 by Jo Stafford and Gordon McCrae. McCrae's tenor blends well with Stafford, and the material reflects a good range of selections: "You'll Never Walk Alone," "It Is No Secret," "Abide with Me, ... see all copies from $7.64! new only from $7.64!
6	Ballad of the Blues (1959) more music like this by Jo Stafford Jo Stafford's Ballad of the Blues is a concept album showcasing the influence of the blues through a story told in song, primarily in a pop setting with a full orchestra. Accompanied by her husband Paul Weston and his orchestra, along with the backing vocals of the all-male quartet the Starlighters, Stafford explores traditional fare such as "John ... see all copies from $7.70! new only from $10.35!
7	Greatest Hits (1993) more music like this by Jo Stafford Jo Stafford walked the delicate line between jazz and pop as well as any singer in the immediate postwar period, and her smooth, elegant sense of melody always put the song she was singing first, so her vocals seem to glide as effortlessly as air through the arrangements, never drawing undue attention, but always there at the center of things. ... see all copies from $7.03! new only from $7.03!
8	Billboard Pop Memories: 1950-1954 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists Rock & roll seemed the farthest thing from anyone's mind during the early '50s. Elaborate, highly arranged songs such as Tony Bennett's "Rags to Riches," Rosemary Clooney's "Come On-A My House" and Kay Starr's "Wheel of Fortune" were the norm, plus the overwrought and frenzied vocals of Eddie Fisher and Johnny Ray & the Four Lads. There were also ... see all copies from $2.87! new only from $6.98!

11 view cover	The Columbia Hits Collection (2001) more music like this by Jo Stafford Not long after Jo Stafford's arranger (and future husband) Paul Weston moved from Capitol to Columbia in 1950, she followed him, preferring to work with an understanding producer (surely their budding relationship played a part as well). During the first half of the '50s, Stafford continued gracing the Hit Parade with the same balance of sedate, ... see all copies from $13.90! new only from $13.90!

Highlights include Billie Holiday's "Trav'lin Light," and The Andrews Sisters' "Shoo-Shoo Baby," Dinah Shore's "Sentimental Journey," Peggy Lee's "I Don't Know Enough About You," and June Christy's "It's Been a Long, Long Time."

The title was imposing, as was the idea behind it -- to chronicle the life of the oldest record label in the music industry. To be clear, Sony Music has not existed for 100 years, but the heart of its catalog, Columbia ... see all copies from $4.93! new only from $19.95!
16 view cover	Puttin' on the Ritz: Capitol Sings Irving Berlin (1992) more music like this by Irving Berlin The songs of Irving Berlin are I-beams in the towering edifice of 20th century popular music. This sampler of predominately pop recordings from the Capitol catalog may serve as both a grab bag of enjoyable entertainments and a useful introduction to some of this composer's nicest tunes. Each of the 25 tracks perfectly illustrates the essence of a ... see all copies from $10.79! new only from $10.79!
17 view cover	Songs That Got Us Through WW2, Vol. 2 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists Songs That Got Us Through WW2, Vol. 2 collects more early-'40s pop favorites like Dinah Shore's "You'd Be So Nice to Come Home To," Roy Rogers' "San Fernando Valley," and Johnny Mercer's "On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe." More overtly war-themed songs such as Buddy Johnson & His Orchestra's "When My Man Comes Home," Louis Jordan's "Ration ... see all copies from $16.52! new only from $16.52!
18 view cover	Daddies Sing GoodNight: A Fathers' Collection of Sleepytime Songs (1994) more music like this by Various Artists This is a thoroughly charming, and occasionally heartbreaking, collection of children's bedtime songs performed from a father's perspective by an all-star cast of bluegrass and modern folk artists. There are one or two predictable standards, like James Taylor's "Sweet Baby James" (performed gently by the Seldome Scene) and Leon Redbone's rendition ... see all copies from $15.65! new only from $15.65!
19 view cover	Ultimate Capitol Collection (2007) more music like this by Jo Stafford Jo Stafford first recorded for Capitol between 1943 and 1950, a seven-year span that saw most (but not all) of her chart hits and best recordings. When she arrived, she had scant experience as a solo-billed act, but plenty of time spent with Tommy Dorsey's Orchestra and with a talented vocal group, the Pied Pipers. (She also had two appearances on ... see all copies from $21.93! new only from $21.93!
20 view cover	Autumn in New York/Starring Jo Stafford (1997) more music like this by Jo Stafford Autumn in New York/Starring Jo Stafford, a Capitol/EMI twofer collection released in 1997, includes 24 tracks of exceptional material by one of vocal music's underrated performers.

22 view cover	Spotlight on Jo Stafford (1996) more music like this by Jo Stafford Spotlight on Jo Stafford is an excellent 18-track overview of her recordings for Capitol Records.

24 view cover	Mob Hits: Music from and a Tribute to Great Mob Movies (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Sure, the title of Mob Hits: Music from and a Tribute to Great Mob Movies sounds silly, but truth be told, it's a killer idea for a compilation. Face it, there are many, many people out there -- not just Gen-Xers, but Baby Boomers as well -- who fell in love with vocal pop through gangster movies. The Godfather, Goodfellas, Casino, and Donnie ... see all copies from $73.45! new only from $73.45!
25 view cover	Big Band Sound (1960) more music like this by Jo Stafford Jo Stafford was never a jazz singer but, because she had a very appealing voice and always sang perfectly in tune with a gentle swing, she was widely admired by jazz musicians in addition to her large middle-of-the-road pop audience. On her Corinthian CD Stafford is heard during the 1960-70 era singing standards while backed by big bands arranged ... see all copies from $18.07! new only from $18.07!
