1	Spice of Life (1969) more music like this by Marlena Shaw Marlena Shaw's penchant for stylistic variety is certainly evident on this, her sophomore release. Cut for the Cadet label in 1969, Spice of Life ranges from soul and proto-funk to jazz and MOR-hued material. Shaw shines throughout, showing her power on politically charged, Aretha-styled cuts like "Woman of the Ghetto" and "Liberation Conversation ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
2	Golden Classics (1995) more music like this by Marlena Shaw Culled from her Blue Note recordings, these 18 cuts feature many of her disco sides, which are not to be confused with Tom Moulton master mixes. One wonders what Blue Note's hierarchy had in mind; the sides are totally foreign from their usual output. The ballads are the most satisfying, especially "Yu-Ma/Go Away Little Boy," where she admonishes ... see all copies from $11.66! new only from $11.66!
3	Jazz Moods: Jazz Party Mix - Cocktail Party/Groovin' the Blues (2001) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $12.24! new only from $12.25!
4	Blue Break Beats, Vol. 4 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists While this collection contains some of the most memorable hooks in the history of jazz and R& B, with classic tracks from Gene Harris, Buddy Rich, Herbie Hancock, Ike & Tina Turner, and others, its main appeal may be to fans of dance music and hip hop. These songs have provided fodder for samplers throughout the '80s and '90s, showing up on tracks ... see all copies from $24.90!
5	Disco Dance (2001) more music like this by Various Artists By the late '90s Sony had begun to introduce budget sets that raided their vaults and often arbitrarily grouped songs together for mass consumption. Hits of the 80s, Vol. 1 and Forever Soul were two of the worst offenders. By 2001, the label decided to make better use of the CD time constraints by extending the running time of each disc. Make no ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $12.69!
6	Jazz Moods: Groovin' the Blues (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Jazz Moods: Groovin' the Blues blends the sophistication of jazz with the soul of the blues, resulting in a cool and funky collection of songs like Ernestine Anderson's "Someone Else Is Steppin' In," Rickey Woodard's "The Silver Strut," Jeannie and Jimmy Cheatham's "Meet Me With Your Black Drawers On," and Ray Brown's "Blues for Sam Nassi." Tracks ... see all copies from $7.61! new only from $7.61!
7	Elemental Soul (1997) more music like this by Marlena Shaw Marlena Shaw's recording career has been rather spotty, with the soulful singer often recording inferior and forgettable pop tunes. Fortunately, her Concord releases (of which this CD was her second) have been on a higher level. For this date, Shaw is accompanied by pianist Dave Hazeltine, either Earl May or Terry Miller on bass, and drummer Jerry ... see all copies from $6.12! new only from $6.12!
8	Dangerous (1996) more music like this by Marlena Shaw After neglecting jazz in favor of more financially lucrative soul, funk and disco in the late '70s and much of the '80s, Marlena Shaw has returned to jazz with often rewarding results in the '90s. A sassy, big-voiced diva full of vitality, humor and soul, Shaw lets us know how much she missed jazz on very enthusiastic interpretations of chestnuts ... see all copies from $10.35! new only from $10.35!
9	Memories (2001) more music like this by Marlena Shaw This Collectables compilation takes highlights from Marlena Shaw's three most beloved disco era records: Take a Bite, Sweet Beginnings (which some would argue is her finest hour), and Acting Up. Jazz aficionados may find a bit of disappointment in the notion that her jazz career is not represented in any way, but this never really purports to be a ... see all copies from $5.72! new only from $5.72!
10	Fire Island Classics, Vol. 2 (1999) more music like this by Michael Fierman see all copies from $38.45!
11 view cover	Go Away Little Boy: The Sass and Soul of Marlena Shaw (1999) more music like this by Marlena Shaw Marlena Shaw is one of Columbia's best signings, as she came to the label after the classic 1975 LP Who Is This Bitch, Anyway? In short order, Shaw continued to do great work, with a new accent on disco and less jazz-accented R&B. While quite a few compilations get tracks from before or after the artist's tenure there, this concentrates on three ... see all copies from $10.00!

13 view cover	A Concord Jazz Christmas, Vol. 2 (1988) more music like this by Various Artists With the exception of a live version of Mel Torme singing "The Christmas Song" in 1988, all of the selections on this Christmas CD were recorded by various Concord artists from 1995-96. There is plenty of variety in both instrumentation and moods, yet the overall results are consistently pleasing, and there is lots of fine playing. Heard here are ... see all copies from $6.95! new only from $10.38!

15 view cover	Blue '70s: Blue Note Got Soul (2000) more music like this by Various Artists On the surface, Blue Seventies is packaged as a Blue Note funk compilation, but the selected music is closer to what would become "smooth jazz" in the '80s and '90s. These tracks were recorded by the Blue Note label at a time when it intentionally embraced the synthesizer, R&B, and disco hybrids tailor-made for pop radio exposure. While the ... see all copies from $16.39! new only from $16.39!
16 view cover	Who Is This Bitch, Anyway? (1974) more music like this by Marlena Shaw A record as fierce and blunt as its title portends, Who Is This Bitch, Anyway? vaults Marlena Shaw into a brave new world of feminism and funk, updating the sophisticated soul-jazz approach of her previous records to explore a fast-changing musical, political, and sexual landscape. Opening with "You, Me and Ethel," a hilarious satire of the ... see all copies from $35.64! new only from $35.64!

18 view cover	Out of Different Bags (1967) more music like this by Marlena Shaw see all copies from $30.00!
19	Love Is in Flight (1988) more music like this by Marlena Shaw see all copies from $12.00!
20 view cover	Blue Movies: Scoring for the Studio (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Blue Movies: Scoring for the Studio features Blue Note artists interpreting classic songs and themes from films. Nancy Wilson's "Moon River," Grant Green's "Down Here on the Ground," Billy May's "Mission Impossible," Lou Donaldson's "The Shadow of Your Smile," and the Three Sounds' "Star Trek" are among the many highlights of this clever ... see all copies from $17.79! new only from $17.79!
21 view cover	Jazz Moods: Jazz at Love's End (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Many entries in the Jazz Moods compilation series try to create their atmospheres mostly with instrumentals, but Jazz Moods: Jazz at Love's End approaches its subject with vocal renditions of 11 heartbreak ballads. Individual songs can range from sentimental and sweet to sad and forlorn, but the musical feel tends to cohere pretty well, making the ... see all copies from $7.61! new only from $7.61!
22	Let Me in Your Life (1982) more music like this by Marlena Shaw In 1982, Marlena Shaw had yet to make her return to straight-ahead jazz singing. R&B was her main focus, but she had gotten away from the sort of outright disco she had embraced in the late '70s. It was that year that the singer recorded Let Me in Your Life, an enjoyable urban-contemporary effort that came out on the short-lived South Bay label. ... see all copies from $20.00! new only from $20.00!
23	From the Depths of My Soul more music like this by Marlena Shaw see all copies from $60.00! new only from $60.00!
24	Just a Matter of Time (1976) more music like this by Marlena Shaw She was their first female artist, but Blue Note Records didn't have a clue on how to record or promote Marlena Shaw. Her two Cadet albums are more satisfying than any of her five Blue Note sets. This is her most commercial Blue Note offering, as she was dropped after Who Is This Bitch Anyway, an aptly titled album given that Marlena constantly ... see all copies from $30.00!
