1	Heart Beats: Sirens of Song - Classic Torch (1997) more music like this by Various Artists Rhino's Sirens of Song: Classic Torch Singers is an excellent collection of late-night, lovelorn vocals by some of the best singers of the century -- and yes, all of them are female, since a strict definition of torch singing (not to mention sirens) excludes males. The collection leads off with "Cry Me a River" by Julie London, the prototypical ... see all copies from $4.98! new only from $10.76!
2	Mood Indigo (2000) more music like this by Little Jimmy Scott Jimmy Scott (aka Little Jimmy Scott) is one of those singers who has never recognized a boundary between pop, jazz, and R&B. From his start in the late '40s, he's worked with musicians of various styles while keeping an open ear to anything of interest. Contemporary albums included songs by Talking Heads, Paul Simon, Simply Red, and other artists, ... see all copies from $13.91! new only from $13.91!
3	The Fabulous Songs of Jimmy Scott (1960) more music like this by Little Jimmy Scott see all copies from $10.76! new only from $10.76!
4	Lounge-A-Palooza (1997) more music like this by Various Artists Lounge-A-Palooza combines several of the most irritating trends in '90s alternative rock in one convenient package. There's the kitschy cocktail revival, the smug humor of smirk-rock, and the pounding guitars of grunge. It's a collection that combines alt-rock covers by MOR pop bands -- like Steve Lawrence & Eydie Gorme singing Soundgarden's ... see all copies from $4.32! new only from $54.95!
5	The Legendary Big Band Singers (1931) more music like this by Various Artists Twenty-one different singers from the swing era are mostly heard backed by big bands on this interesting but not essential sampler. Generally the performances give one a good idea as to the vocalist's abilities (such as Cab Caloway's "Minnie the Moocher," Louis Armstrong's "Thanks a Million," Jimmy Rushing's "Sent for You Yesterday" and Sister ... see all copies from $7.53!
6	Over the Rainbow (2001) more music like this by Little Jimmy Scott There have been few 75-year-old vocalists working in any popular music style that sounded as good as Scott did on this session from late 2000, aided by contributions from top players like Joe Beck (guitar) and Grady Tate (drums). Scott loves those sentimental songs, and this set is full of standards in that vein, from the title track and "Pennies ... see all copies from $4.29! new only from $9.49!
7	Moon Glow (2003) more music like this by Little Jimmy Scott Afflicted as a child with Kallman's syndrome, a rare hormonal deficiency that stunted his growth and left him with a high-pitched and eerily androgynous voice, Jimmy Scott had a successful career as a jazz singer in the 1940s and 1950s, but then dropped from view until his rediscovery in the 1990s. At age 78, his voice can no longer be reasonably ... see all copies from $7.92! new only from $13.91!
8	But Beautiful (2002) more music like this by Little Jimmy Scott There's something in the languid soprano of Jimmy Scott's voice that communicates heartache in a way few other vocalists can touch; even when he's singing a relatively upbeat number, the nooks and crannies of Scott's stretched-out phrasing and subtle vibrato conjure vivid images of late nights and lost loves, while managing to make romantic ... see all copies from $13.91! new only from $13.91!
9	Milestone Profiles [Milestone] (2006) more music like this by Little Jimmy Scott Milestone Profiles finds the singular vocalist Jimmy Scott performing in-studio with a stellar lineup of all-star guests, including saxophonist Eric Alexander, pianist Cyrus Chestnut, trumpeter Wynton Marsalis, and others. Scott, once an obscure and forgotten singer from the '50s, was rediscovered in the '90s and has since released a steady flow ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.44!
10	If You Only Knew (1955) more music like this by Little Jimmy Scott This Jimmy Scott Savoy release from the mid-'50s should not be confused with the later documentary film based on the trials and travails of the unique jazz singer. In both cases the title If You Only Knew is based on a standard song, one of several co-written by Rose Marie McCoy that Scott chooses to interpret in his provocative manner. This ... see all copies from $13.09! new only from $13.09!
11 view cover	All or Nothing at All: The Dramatic Jimmy Scott (2005) more music like this by Little Jimmy Scott Little Jimmy Scott (as he was billed at the time) did his first important recordings for Herman Lubinsky's Savoy label in the mid-'50s, but while Savoy didn't always seem certain of what to do with this admittedly idiosyncratic talent, they certainly didn't want other companies getting their hands on him, and as a result landmark recordings Scott ... see all copies from $11.27! new only from $11.27!
12 view cover	Regal Records Live in New Orleans (1992) more music like this by Little Jimmy Scott w/ the Paul Gayten Band Certainly, this rough live recording of a 1951 club gig is primarily a historical document, and not one of the first discs you'd turn to if you want to hear some vintage Jimmy Scott. On its own terms, though, it's pretty enjoyable. The band cooks in an R&B/jazz crossover style, yielding a sound that's rawer than what you'll find on most of Scott's ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
13 view cover	Atlantic Jazz Vocals: Voices of Cool, Vol. 2 (1995) more music like this by Various Artists Delivering another round of cool vocal sides from the Atlantic vaults, Rhino comes through with a second helping of tracks from across the jazz spectrum. Slightly better than the first volume and packing 18 cuts, Atlantic Jazz Vocals: Voices of Cool, Vol. 2 takes in traditional jazz work from Betty Carter and Carmen McCrae, as well as more pop and ... see all copies from $7.62! new only from $12.17!
14 view cover	The Source (2001) more music like this by Little Jimmy Scott After over 30 years of legal wrangling, the inspirational genius of Jimmy Scott has been re-released by master producer Joel Dorn on an album that is as beautiful and strong today as it was when it was recorded for Ray Charles' Tangerine Records. The lyrical links of "Unchained Melody" are absolutely righteous and the strains of "Exodus" could ... see all copies from $7.35! new only from $7.35!
15 view cover	Stormy Weather: The Music of Harold Arlen (2003) more music like this by Various Artists With an amazing catalog of songs that includes "Over the Rainbow," "Stormy Weather," "It's Only a Paper Moon," "I've Got the World on a String," "Get Happy" and "Come Rain or Come Shine," it seems a criminal oversight that Harold Arlen's name doesn't resonate with the public the way Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, Hoagy Carmichael and George & Ira ... see all copies from $12.69! new only from $12.69!
16 view cover	Atlantic Jazz: Best of the '70s (1994) more music like this by Various Artists During the 1970s, Atlantic eventually lost most of the acts that made it a powerhouse in the 1950s and '60s, while increasingly turning to formulaic commercial fare in an attempt at trendiness and survival. This 12-track anthology shows the perils of jazz life in the 1970s; there are top-caliber tunes by the duos of Gary Burton/Keith Jarrett and ... see all copies from $10.19!
17 view cover	Little Jimmy Scott (1999) more music like this by Little Jimmy Scott Classic jazz-influenced and R&B vocals by a distinctive, infrequently recorded artist, Little Jimmy Scott. His diminutive size wasn't equaled by his voice; it was huge, and could offer sweeping, dramatic treatments one moment and aching, gripping ballads the next. These songs were done in the mid-'50s for Savoy, were later reissued on vinyl, and ... see all copies from $16.99! new only from $16.99!
18 view cover	Someone to Watch Over Me: The Definitive (2004) more music like this by Little Jimmy Scott see all copies from $13.78! new only from $40.19!
19 view cover	All of Me: Live in Tokyo (2004) more music like this by Little Jimmy Scott see all copies from $33.80! new only from $33.80!
