2	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.

3	The Greatest Ragtime of the Century (1992) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist The happy, rhythmically infectious music known as ragtime flourished internationally between the late 1890s and 1920. During the genre's most popular period, 1910-1920, patrons could drop a coin in a player piano and hear the latest by Eubie Blake and Jelly Roll Morton. While both ragtime and player pianos have passed from the scene, post ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.33!
4	Verve Presents: The Very Best of Christmas Jazz (2001) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from $9.46! new only from $9.46!
5	The Great Summit: The Master Takes (1990) more music like this by Louis Armstrong with Duke Ellington add to wishlist Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington were (and are) two of the main stems of jazz. Any way you look at it, just about everything that's ever happened in this music leads directly -- or indirectly -- back to them. Both men were born on the cusp of the 19th and 20th centuries, and each became established as a leader during the middle '20s. Although ... see all copies from $4.95! new only from $6.83!
6	The Very Best of Fats Waller [Collectors' Choice] (2000) more music like this by Fats Waller add to wishlist see all copies from $11.58! new only from $11.58!
7	The Essential Bessie Smith (1997) more music like this by Bessie Smith add to wishlist Although there are a multitude of box sets chronicling Bessie's entire recorded career, this two-disc, 36-song set sweats it down to the bare essentials in quite an effective manner. Bessie could sing it all, from the lowdown moan of "St. Louis Blues" and "Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out" to her torch treatment of the jazz standard ... see all copies from $15.18! new only from $15.18!
8 $The Essential Louis Armstrong [Columbia\Legacy]$	The Essential Louis Armstrong [Columbia\Legacy] (2004) more music like this by Louis Armstrong add to wishlist Even at two discs and 37 tracks, it's difficult to say that this set contains everything that is truly essential from Louis Armstrong's monumental five-decade career. It does, however, do a great job of touching down at key points, and nicely balances Armstrong's various guises as a groundbreaking sideman, soloist, bandleader, singer, and ... see all copies from $12.72! new only from $12.72!
9	We'll Meet Again: The Love Songs of World War II (1994) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist 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 $15.12!

13	Jelly Roll Morton [JSP] (2000) more music like this by Jelly Roll Morton add to wishlist JSP's five-CD set devoted to Jelly Roll Morton contains all of his Victor recordings cut between September 1926 and October 1930. The sound quality is excellent and complete discographical information is provided along with insightful liner notes. Alternate takes are presented on separate discs so as to avoid redundancy. This creates doppelgängers ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $10.00!
14	Shout, Sister, Shout! (2003) more music like this by The Boswell Sisters add to wishlist The British label Living Era rarely disappoints when compiling classic jazz or vocal material, and its volume on the quintessential tight-harmony sister trio the Boswell Sisters is no different. Compiling 25 of the most charming, carefree performances from their catalog, Shout, Sister, Shout! has very little wrong with it and only one minor crime ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $7.99!
15	Complete New York Town Hall & Boston Symphony Hall Concerts (2006) more music like this by Louis Armstrong Quartet add to wishlist Reissued together for the first time on CD, Louis Armstrong's Complete New York Town Hall & Boston Symphony Hall Concerts provides an enjoyable and complete presentation of Satchmo and the All-Stars.

17	The Smithsonian Collection of Classic Jazz, Vol. 1-5 (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist The Smithsonian Collection of Classic Jazz is itself somewhat of a classic, referred to in many books, and used as the main learning source in at least one. If you don't know what you like in jazz and are looking for a well-put-together introduction, this set is a good bet. It starts with ragtime's Scott Joplin, and proceeds through Bessie Smith, ... see all copies from $26.20!
18	Montreux '77 (1977) more music like this by Count Basie Big Band add to wishlist Count Basie always seemed to kick things up a notch when he took his big band out on-stage, and this early morning set recorded at the 1977 Montreux Jazz Festival is no exception. This edition of the band was a good one, with the presence of Al Grey, Jimmy Forrest, Charles Fowlkes, and of course, the heartbeat of the band, Freddie Green. Basie was ... see all copies from $7.45! new only from $10.60!
19	Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong for Lovers (2005) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald/Louis Armstrong add to wishlist Part of Verve's extensive For Lovers series, Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong for Lovers features timeless duets from the '50s including "Nearness of You," "Stars Fell on Alabama," "Moonlight in Vermont," and "Dream a Little Dream of Me."

20	The Great London Concerts (1993) more music like this by Duke Ellington add to wishlist This previously issued material (released on a single CD by Music Masters) features the Duke Ellington Orchestra during a very busy era. The veteran musicians were getting older but their very individual voices were still powerful, and Ellington was far from running out of gas at this point. The five standards taken from the earlier performance ... see all copies from $1.99!
21	16 Most Requested Songs (1994) more music like this by Louis Armstrong add to wishlist 16 Most Requested Songs is a mid-priced collection that attempts to spotlight many good performances by Louis Armstrong, including "Mack the Knife" and "Blueberry Hill." The collection claims to present his "most requested" work, but any set that leaves off "What a Wonderful World" and "Hello, Dolly!" can't deliver. At the same time, these are ... see all copies from $3.79! new only from $6.77!
22	Greatest Hits [RCA] (1996) more music like this by Louis Armstrong add to wishlist This CD is part of RCA's extensive Greatest Hits jazz program, a beginner's series designed to introduce listeners to jazz, specifically RCA's jazz catalog.

24	First Time! The Count Meets the Duke (1961) more music like this by Duke Ellington with Count Basie's Orchestra add to wishlist At first glance this collaboration should not have worked. The Duke Ellington and Count Basie Orchestras had already been competitors for 25 years but the leaders' mutual admiration (Ellington was one of Basie's main idols) and some brilliant planning made this a very successful and surprisingly uncrowded encounter. On most selections Ellington ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.75!
25	The Count Basie Story [Proper] (2001) more music like this by Count Basie add to wishlist see all copies from $11.00! new only from $23.52!
