1	Kind of Blue (1959) more music like this by Miles Davis add to wishlist Kind of Blue isn't merely an artistic highlight for Miles Davis, it's an album that towers above its peers, a record generally considered as the definitive jazz album, a universally acknowledged standard of excellence. Why does Kind of Blue posses such a mystique? Perhaps because this music never flaunts its genius. It lures listeners in with ... see all copies from $6.87! new only from $6.87!
2	A Love Supreme (1964) more music like this by John Coltrane add to wishlist Easily one of the most important records ever made, John Coltrane's A Love Supreme was his pinnacle studio outing that at once compiled all of his innovations from his past, spoke of his current deep spirituality, and also gave a glimpse into the next two and a half years (sadly, those would be his last). Recorded at the end of 1964, Trane's ... see all copies from $4.65! new only from $9.00!
3	The Best of Ken Burns Jazz (2000) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist In conjunction with documentary filmmaker Ken Burns' ten-part 2000 PBS special, Columbia/Legacy and Verve teamed up to issue a special series of reissues covering much of the history of 20th century jazz. The central release of this program was the five-CD box set Ken Burns Jazz: The Story of America's Music, which was augmented by no less than 22 ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.99!
4	Maiden Voyage (1965) more music like this by Herbie Hancock add to wishlist Less overtly adventurous than its predecessor, Empyrean Isles, Maiden Voyage nevertheless finds Herbie Hancock at a creative peak. In fact, it's arguably his finest record of the '60s, reaching a perfect balance between accessible, lyrical jazz and chance-taking hard bop. By this point, the pianist had been with Miles Davis for two years, and it's ... see all copies from $5.15! new only from $8.70!
5	Speak No Evil (1964) more music like this by Wayne Shorter add to wishlist On his third date for Blue Note within a year, Wayne Shorter changed the bands that played on both Night Dreamer and Juju and came up with not only another winner, but also managed to give critics and jazz fans a different look at him as a saxophonist. Because of his previous associations with McCoy Tyner, Elvin Jones, and Reggie Workman on those ... see all copies from $5.60! new only from $6.62!
6	Milestones (1958) more music like this by Miles Davis add to wishlist What is immediately noticeable upon listening to this delicately and superbly remastered version of Miles Davis classic first -- and only -- album with his original sextet is how deep the blues presence is on it. Though it is true that the album's title cut is rightfully credited with introducing modalism into jazz, and defining Davis' music for ... see all copies from $6.49! new only from $6.49!
7	Head Hunters (1973) more music like this by Herbie Hancock add to wishlist Head Hunters was a pivotal point in Herbie Hancock's career, bringing him into the vanguard of jazz fusion. Hancock had pushed avant-garde boundaries on his own albums and with Miles Davis, but he had never devoted himself to the groove as he did on Head Hunters. Drawing heavily from Sly Stone, Curtis Mayfield, and James Brown, Hancock developed ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.10!
8	Karma (1969) more music like this by Pharoah Sanders add to wishlist Pharoah Sanders' third album as a leader is the one that defines him as a musician to the present day. After the death of Coltrane, while there were many seeking to make a spiritual music that encompassed his ideas and yearnings while moving forward, no one came up with the goods until Sanders on this 1969 date. There are only two tracks on Karma, ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $12.02!
9	Waltz for Debby [Bonus Tracks #2] (1990) more music like this by Bill Evans add to wishlist Recorded at the Village Vanguard in 1961, shortly before Scott LaFaro's death, Waltz for Debby is the second album issued from that historic session, and the final one from that legendary trio that also contained drummer Paul Motian. While the Sunday at the Village Vanguard album focused on material where LaFaro soloed prominently, Waltz for Debby ... see all copies from $5.50! new only from $9.20!
10	The Very Best of John Coltrane [Rhino] (2000) more music like this by John Coltrane add to wishlist Released in 2000, The Very Best of John Coltrane is hardly the first best-of collection by the seminal saxophonist, and you can bet certain that it won't be the last. Focusing on 'Trane's influential Atlantic output of the late '50s and early '60s, this CD shouldn't be confused with previous Best of John Coltrane collections from Pablo/Fantasy ... see all copies from $4.90! new only from $9.77!
11 view cover	A Love Supreme [2002 Deluxe Edition] (2002) more music like this by John Coltrane add to wishlist Inevitably, certain jazz titles will be reissued over and over. Miles Davis' seminal Kind of Blue has been reissued many times, and you can safely assume that A Love Supreme will continue to be a decent seller (by jazz standards) as long as it keeps getting reissued. What separates this deluxe 2002 reissue of the John Coltrane classic from all of ... see all copies from $10.99! new only from $13.95!
12 view cover	Moonbeams (1962) more music like this by Bill Evans Trio add to wishlist Moonbeams was the first recording Bill Evans made after the death of his musical right arm, bassist Scott LaFaro. Indeed, in LaFaro, Evans found a counterpart rather than a sideman, and the music they made together over four albums showed it. Bassist Chuck Israels from Cecil Taylor and Bud Powell's bands took his place in the band with Evans and ... see all copies from $9.24! new only from $9.24!
13 view cover	Sunday at the Village Vanguard [1992 Bonus Tracks] (1992) more music like this by Bill Evans Trio add to wishlist Sunday at the Village Vanguard is the initial volume of a mammoth recording session by the Bill Evans Trio, from June 25, 1961 at New York's Village Vanguard documenting Evans' first trio with bassist Scott LaFaro and drummer Paul Motian. Its companion volume is Waltz for Debby. This trio is still widely regarded as his finest, largely because of ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $9.22!
14 view cover	Undercurrent [Expanded] (2002) more music like this by Bill Evans/Jim Hall add to wishlist Undercurrent has long been considered one of the classic piano/guitar duo sessions, pairing Bill Evans with Jim Hall. These studio dates were a jump start for Evans' career, which he had placed on hold after the unexpected death of his bassist, Scott LaFaro, a few days following their historic Village Vanguard recordings were made. First reissued ... see all copies from $14.68! new only from $14.68!
15 view cover	Everybody Digs Bill Evans [Keepnews Collection] (2007) more music like this by Bill Evans add to wishlist Everybody Digs Bill Evans was a landmark recording for the young pianist and sported a unique album cover, featuring written-out endorsements from Miles Davis, George Shearing, Ahmad Jamal, and Cannonball Adderley. At a time approximate to when Evans was performing with the famous Kind of Blue band of Davis, Adderley, and John Coltrane, and ... see all copies from $10.28! new only from $10.28!
16 view cover	Last Waltz: The Final Recordings Live (2000) more music like this by Bill Evans Trio add to wishlist see all copies from $87.23! new only from $87.23!
17 view cover	Jazz: Red, Hot and Cool (1954) more music like this by Dave Brubeck add to wishlist Recorded during three different stays at New York's Basin Street, Jazz: Red, Hot and Cool is making its first appearance in the U.S. on CD. It documents -- with the addition of two additional performances that were previously unissued -- the original Brubeck quartet in its final years. In 1956 Joe Morello would replace Joe Dodge, and in 1958 ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $8.67!
18 view cover	The Essential Miles Davis [Columbia/Legacy] (2001) more music like this by Miles Davis add to wishlist At first glance, it would seem like an impossible task to summarize Miles Davis' career into a succinct double-disc set. Still, a career as multifaceted and ever-changing as Miles' winds up having a clear narrative, one that can be told by just the highlights, which is exactly what Columbia/Legacy's excellent double-disc Essential Miles Davis does ... see all copies from $11.96! new only from $11.96!
19 view cover	Together Again [Concord] (2003) more music like this by Tony Bennett/Bill Evans add to wishlist Tony Bennett's second, and final, meeting with Bill Evans is a memorable session for several reasons. Bennett is very relaxed and inspired by Evans' imaginative yet reserved accompaniment, which allows the spotlight to stay focused on the singer. The program is a wide-ranging mix of standards ("You Don't Know What Love Is" and "Dream Dancing") and ... see all copies from $9.24! new only from $9.24!
20 view cover	The Complete Village Vanguard Recordings, 1961 (2005) more music like this by Bill Evans add to wishlist The music recorded by Bill Evans on June 25, 1961, has long since acquired legendary status. Evans, a brilliant pianist whose unique voicings have influenced over a generation of jazz pianists who have followed him, weaves one masterpiece after another with bassist Scott LaFaro (a promising composer and phenomenal bassist) and the equally valuable ... see all copies from $23.11! new only from $23.11!
21 view cover	Ken Burns Jazz (2000) more music like this by John Coltrane add to wishlist In conjunction with the release of Ken Burns' ten-part, 19-hour epic PBS documentary Jazz, Columbia issued 22 single-disc compilations devoted to jazz's most significant artists, as well as a five-disc historical summary. Since the individual compilations attempt to present balanced overviews of each artist's career, tracks from multiple labels ... see all copies from $3.95! new only from $9.24!
22 view cover	Kind of Blue [Columbia Jazz Masterpieces] (1987) more music like this by Miles Davis add to wishlist Kind of Blue isn't merely an artistic highlight for Miles Davis, it's an album that towers above its peers, a record generally considered as the definitive jazz album, a universally acknowledged standard of excellence. Why does Kind of Blue posses such a mystique? Perhaps because this music never flaunts its genius. It lures listeners in with ... see all copies from $1.99!
23 view cover	Conversations with Myself (1963) more music like this by Bill Evans add to wishlist A classic of its kind. For this Verve project, Conversations With Myself, Bill Evans recorded three piano parts via overdubbing. Aptly titled, the music on this CD reissue has a surprising amount of spontaneity, with Evans constantly reacting to what he had just recorded, and the results are sometimes haunting. The highlights include "How About ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.50!
24 view cover	My Favorite Things (1960) more music like this by John Coltrane add to wishlist Although seemingly impossible to comprehend, this landmark jazz recording was made in less than three days. All the more remarkable is that the same sessions which yielded My Favorite Things would also inform a majority of the albums Coltrane Plays the Blues, Coltrane's Sound, and Coltrane Legacy. It is easy to understand the appeal that these ... see all copies from $3.82! new only from $7.97!
25 view cover	Empyrean Isles (1964) more music like this by Herbie Hancock add to wishlist My Point of View and Inventions and Dimensions found Herbie Hancock exploring the fringes of hard bop, working with a big band and a Latin-flavored percussion section, respectively. On Empyrean Isles, he returns to hard bop, but the results are anything but conventional. Working with cornetist Freddie Hubbard, bassist Ron Carter, and drummer Tony ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $8.99!
