1	We'll Meet Again: The Love Songs of World War II (1994) more music like this by Various Artists A two-disc set of American popular music from 1941 to 1945, We'll Meet Again compiles many of the era's biggest love songs, all informed by the war experience. Performers include Bing Crosby, the Mills Brothers, Benny Goodman and the Ink Spots. Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide see all copies from $25.00! new only from $49.95!
2	Cugi's Cocktails (1963) more music like this by Xavier Cugat Contrary to the title, Cugi's Cocktails is no sleepy album of "cocktail music." It has all the elements a listener would expect of Xavier Cugat's first great stereo album: an agreeable theme, a dash of exotic flair, and all the bombast of the preceding half-decade of experimenting with high-fidelity stereo recording. "One Mint Julep" would have ... see all copies from $7.96! new only from $10.35!
3	The Original Latin Dance King (2002) more music like this by Xavier Cugat Xavier Cugat had a recording career that stretched over many more years than are covered on this collection. But this single-disc, 26-song anthology of sides from the 1940s and 1950s has to be considered the best collection of his work. This was Cugat's prime, and the tracks boast better fidelity than those he made prior to 1940, if one considers ... see all copies from $9.47! new only from $10.66!
4	From Avenue A to the Great White Way: Yiddish & American Popular Songs From 1914-1950 (2002) more music like this by Various Artists This carefully selected and sequenced compilation of music from the Sony Music vaults traces the influence of Jewish theater music on American popular music. Over half of it consists of songs sung in Yiddish; the rest display the impact of such songs on the mainstream in the first half of the 20th century. Yiddish stars like David Medoff, Molly ... see all copies from $8.74! new only from $12.25!
5	The Best of the Big Bands [Intersound 1040] (1993) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $8.24! new only from $22.28!

7	Bread, Love and Cha-Cha-Cha/Cugat Calvalcade (2001) more music like this by Xavier Cugat This two-fer from Collectables features a pair of out-of-print Xavier Cugat LPs: Bread, Love and Cha-Cha-Cha and Cugat Calvalcade. Each of the 24 tracks has a continuity dominated by cha cha rhythms. While this material becomes formulaic, it's still a lot of fun and perfect background music for your next party. Highlights Include "Frenesi," "La ... see all copies from $10.31! new only from $11.66!
8	16 Most Requested Songs of the 1940's, Vol. 1 (1989) more music like this by Various Artists 16 Most Requested Songs of the 1940s, Vol. 1 contains a selection of traditional pop, big-band and easy listening hits from the Columbia Records vaults, including performances from Les Brown ("Sentimental Journey"), Harry James ("You Made Me Love You"), Dinah Shore ("Buttons and Bows," "Doin' What Comes Naturally"), Xavier Cugat ("Amor"), Benny ... see all copies from $6.75!
9	The Victory Collection (1995) more music like this by Various Artists This three-CD set is a well-conceived and executed collection of songs, spoken-word entertainment, interviews, and newscast transcriptions from 1941 through 1945, devoted to aspects of World War II and what life was like in the United States during the war. The three discs are divided up in broad thematic terms -- the first disc is the most ... see all copies from $5.98! new only from $47.89!
10	Talkin' Verve: With a Twist (1958) more music like this by Various Artists The Talkin' Verve series, until this point ostensibly an investigation into the roots of acid-jazz (aka another way to exploit the back catalog), took on a really strange twist with this melange of mid-century bachelor-pad jazz and whatnot. Presumably aimed at the lounge music fad of the 1990s, this package bundles together jazzers like Stan Getz, ... see all copies from $6.76!

Each of the 24 tracks has a continuity dominated by Cha Cha rhythms. While this material becomes formulaic, it's still a lot of fun and perfect background music for your next party. Highlights Include "Mambo Gordo," ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $11.66!

14 view cover	Cugat Cavalcade (1990) more music like this by Xavier Cugat The most significant thing about Cugat Cavalcade is the famous jacket photo of Xavier Cugat holding one of his chihuahuas. But it's also a treat to have a Columbia album recorded in stereo. Unfortunately, the album is really nothing more than another collection of old singles. The new stereo versions are not a significant departure from the ... see all copies from $2.88!

16 view cover	Live from the Waldorf-Astoria 1950-1954 (2000) more music like this by Xavier Cugat Harlequin Records presents Xavier Cugat and his orchestra, the way they sounded live and in person at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel during the years 1950-1954. This is Latin big band dance music -- heavy on the rhumbas and mambos -- with a strong jazz influence. Indeed during their best passages Cugie's crew could easily be mistaken for Machito & His ... see all copies from $8.94! new only from $8.94!

19 view cover	Pure Nostalgia...And All That Jazz (2002) more music like this by Various Artists Stylistically it's pure hodgepodge, but this ASV/Living Era compilation does excel at offering some of the best prewar material that traditional pop audiences identify as nostalgia. Whether it's a cowboy ballad, a French chanson, or a Hoagy Carmichael evergreen, the compilers aim for a sense of ennui that makes good use of that certain something: ... see all copies from $9.12! new only from $11.03!
20 view cover	Beethoven Wrote It, But It Swings (1996) more music like this by Various Artists This is a weird little curio from another time and another state of mind, a compendium of 23 78s from the big band era that took classical themes and tried to convert them into vehicles for swing bands. In the 1930s and '40s, the most famous classical pieces were more familiar to the man in the street than they are now, and there was a lot of ... see all copies from $3.88! new only from $29.95!
21 view cover	Routes of Rhythm, Vol. 1: Carnival of Cuba (1990) more music like this by Various Artists 1990s Routes of Rhythm, Vol. 1: Carnival of Cuba is the first in a three-part series accenting contemporary and classic Afro-Cuban music and offers a wonderful mix of improvisatory and popular styles. The 16-song disc ranges from Los Van Van's rock and synthesizer-tinged modern songs to Bing Crosby's creamy vocals backed by Xavier Cugat's ... see all copies from $12.07! new only from $14.74!

24 view cover	Weekend in Havana [Harlequin] (1999) more music like this by Xavier Cugat Weekend in Havana features rare 1940s tracks and a sampling of Cugat's best vocal collaborators: Miguelito Valdes, Lina Romay, Carmen Castillo and more. This delightful, summery collection also includes two previously unreleased tracks, making it a wise choice for Cugat collectors and newcomers alike.

25 view cover	Live from the Statler-Hilton & Roseland Hotels 1950s (2000) more music like this by Xavier Cugat Tightly packed with rhumbas, mambos, sambas, and meringues, this chapter in Harlequin's amazing Xavier Cugat series is wall-to-wall live radio broadcasts, featuring conventional gringo announcers and lots of feisty introductions by Cugie himself. This band comes across better than ever when heard performing in front of the public at the Roseland ... see all copies from $12.65! new only from $14.69!
