1	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 $5.87! new only from $9.45!
2	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 $5.99!
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	My Favorite Things (1961) 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 $3.49! new only from $7.99!
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 $1.99! new only from $7.91!
6	Psychicemotus (1964) more music like this by Yusef Lateef add to wishlist Psychicemotus was released in 1965 and features Yusef Lateef on various flutes and tenor saxophone, Georges Arvanitas on piano, bassist Reggie Workman, and drummer James Black. And while the Coltrane era of modal and free jazz was in full swing, Lateef always followed his own muse, and continued looking forward while looking back to ancient musics ... see all copies from $10.91! new only from $10.91!
7	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 $5.12! new only from $9.89!
8	Waltz for Debby [Bonus Tracks #2] (1961) more music like this by Bill Evans Trio 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 $10.35! new only from $10.35!
9	Undercurrent [Expanded] (1963) more music like this by Bill Evans and 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 $11.32! new only from $11.32!
10	Jewels of Thought (1969) more music like this by Pharoah Sanders add to wishlist In 1969, Pharoah Sanders was incredibly active, recording no less than four albums and releasing three. The band on Jewels of Thought is largely the same as on Deaf Dumb Blind and Karma, with a few changes. Idris Muhammad has, with the exception of "Hum-Allah-Hum-Allah Hum Allah," replaced Roy Haynes, and Richard Davis has permanently replaced ... see all copies from $12.09! new only from $12.09!
11	Black Unity (1971) more music like this by Pharoah Sanders add to wishlist By 1971, Pharoah Sanders had taken the free thing as far as he could and still live with himself. He was investigating new ways to use rhythm -- always his primary concern -- inside his music and more tonally strident ways of involving the front line in extrapolating tonal and harmonic diversions from the melodic framework of his music. To that ... see all copies from $12.09! new only from $12.09!
12	Everybody Digs Bill Evans [Keepnews Collection] (1958) more music like this by Bill Evans Trio 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 $9.45! new only from $9.45!
13	Last Waltz: The Final Recordings Live (2000) more music like this by Bill Evans add to wishlist see all copies from $97.81! new only from $97.81!
14	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 $22.03! new only from $22.03!
15	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 $3.79! new only from $6.16!
16	Conversations with Myself (1963) more music like this by Bill Evans add to wishlist Often stirring controversy for no key or good reason, Conversations with Myself has Bill Evans utilizing the sound-on-sound technique of reel-to-reel tape recording available in the 1960s to play simultaneous twin pianos. It's an interesting combination of counterpointed lines and chords that Evans employs, with differing tempos and shadings that ... see all copies from $4.22! new only from $14.73!
17	Inner Urge (1964) more music like this by Joe Henderson add to wishlist This early recording by Joe Henderson is not only one of the finest of all of his fine recordings, but is also a high point for 1960s jazz. At this point in his career, Henderson was a full-time member of Horace Silver's combo and did not yet have a steady band in his hire. He is joined on Inner Urge by veterans of other combos: McCoy Tyner and ... see all copies from $3.88! new only from $9.45!
18	Kind of Blue [Columbia Jazz Masterpieces] (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 $1.99!
19	Miles Smiles (1966) more music like this by Miles Davis add to wishlist With their second album, Miles Smiles, the second Miles Davis Quintet really began to hit their stride, delving deeper into the more adventurous, exploratory side of their signature sound. This is clear as soon as "Orbits" comes crashing out the gate, but it's not just the fast, manic material that has an edge -- slower, quieter numbers are ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.00!
20	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 $2.99! new only from $9.45!
21	Sunday at the Village Vanguard [1992 Bonus Tracks] (1961) 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 $9.52!
22	Nefertiti (1967) more music like this by Miles Davis add to wishlist Nefertiti, the fourth album by Miles Davis' second classic quintet, continues the forward motion of Sorcerer, as the group settles into a low-key, exploratory groove, offering music with recognizable themes -- but themes that were deliberately dissonant, slightly unsettling even as they burrowed their way into the consciousness. In a sense, this ... see all copies from $7.02! new only from $7.02!
23	Jazz: Red, Hot and Cool (1955) 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 $7.02!
24	Meditations (1965) more music like this by John Coltrane add to wishlist This CD reissues what was arguably the finest of the John Coltrane-Pharoah Sanders collaborations. On five diverse but almost consistently intense movements ("The Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost," "Compassion," "Love," "Consequences," and "Serenity"), the two tenor saxophonists, pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Jimmy Garrison, and both Elvin ... see all copies from $9.45! new only from $9.45!
25	Circle in the Round (1979) more music like this by Miles Davis add to wishlist Although this two-disc set is a compilation -- primarily consisting of extended outtakes -- Circle in the Round features the true colors of jazz chameleon Miles Davis (trumpet) during a 15-year (1955-1970) span from eight different recording sessions. Whether it was serendipity or astute coordination that gathered these sides together, Davis ... see all copies from $13.95! new only from $15.50!
