1	The Only Big Band CD You'll Ever Need (2000) more music like this by Various Artists While the title alone would seem to invite criticism, it's a justified tag, as this 20-track collection rounds up some pretty serious contenders. Kicking off with Glenn Miller's "Chattanooga Choo Choo," Benny Goodman's "Stompin' at the Savoy," and Duke Ellington's "Take the 'A' Train," the set includes signature tunes from Woody Herman, Artie Shaw ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $12.69!

While it is assembled too haphazardly to appeal to the jazz purists, it is an ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.04!

8	Brand New (1971) more music like this by Woody Herman Woody Herman always went out of his way to keep his band's repertoire and style modern and contemporary.

Although not a complete success (these versions ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $10.38!

12 view cover	Giant Steps (1973) more music like this by Woody Herman Woody Herman always went out of his way during his long career to encourage younger players, often persuading them to write arrangements of recent tunes for his orchestra.
