1	What a Wonderful World (1968) more music like this by Louis Armstrong Helmed by legendary producer Bob Thiele, this 1968 recording ushered Louis Armstrong into his later days as a pop vocalist. Here, the trumpet that drove Armstrong's early Hot Fives and Sevens is more subdued as his familiar gravelly voice takes center stage. Showcasing the powerful title track as well as several cheery pop favorites, Armstrong's ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.50!
2	Ken Burns Jazz: The Story of America's Music (2000) more music like this by Various Artists 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	Greatest Hits [RCA] (1928) more music like this by Duke Ellington Unlike some of the entries in RCA Victor's beginners' introduction to jazz CD series, this collection does contain quite a few "hits." Other than 1928's "I Can't Give You Anything but Love" and a 1967 rendition of "Lotus Blossom," the music on the set dates from 1941-46. The performances (available in more coherent and complete form elsewhere) are ... see all copies from $3.50! new only from $11.06!

5	Martha Stewart Living Music: Traditional Songs for the Holidays (2005) more music like this by Various Artists The universe's foremost authority on homemaking (save for Sue Ann Nivens) has a knack for curating background music ideal for all holiday occasions, whether used as a soundtrack to an upscale, intimate dinner party or just for wrapping gifts and baking cookies. On this installment of her Living Music series, Martha Stewart presents an eclectic 18 ... see all copies from $3.38! new only from $3.38!

8	Brunswick, Vol. 1 (2000) more music like this by The Boswell Sisters This is a first-rate collection, adapted from an old Columbia Special Products LP, and featuring the sister trio backed by the Dorsey Brothers band, which included, in addition to Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey, Eddie Lang, Joe Venuti, and Bunny Berigan. That's enough to make these 15 sides, recorded between March 19, 1931, and June 17, 1932, into virtual ... see all copies from $11.56! new only from $11.56!
9	All-Time Greatest Hits (1949) more music like this by Louis Armstrong The 18 tracks on All-Time Greatest Hits come from Louis Armstrong's "pop" era, the final decades of his career where, under the tutelage of producer Milt Gabler and arranger Gordon Jenkins, the jazz pioneer moved full-bore into a genial form of heavily orchestrated pop music. The Armstrong of this era, a large, bear-like man with an infectious ... see all copies from $5.99!

11 view cover	Louis Armstrong Plays W.C. Handy (1954) more music like this by Louis Armstrong and His All-Stars This recording was not only Louis Armstrong's finest record of the 1950s but one of the truly classic jazz sets. Out of print for years, it was reissued quite shoddily in 1986 on a Columbia CD with alternates in place of many of the original versions and no real explanation. It was a complete and inexcusable mess and should be avoided by all but ... see all copies from $5.44! new only from $6.75!
12 view cover	Jelly Roll Morton [JSP] (2000) more music like this by Jelly Roll Morton 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!
13 view cover	If You Got to Ask, You Ain't Got It! (2006) more music like this by Fats Waller During his 21-year recording career, Thomas "Fats" Waller waxed so many hundreds of songs that only a dedicated few have heard them all even once, let alone often enough to understand the true nature of his legacy. While longtime collectors can attest to the awesome breadth and depth of Waller's massive discography, your average citizen needs and ... see all copies from $17.98! new only from $35.30!
14 view cover	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.

15 view cover	Sophisticated Lady [RCA] (1940) more music like this by Duke Ellington This RCA CD reissue contains 19 Duke Ellington recordings from 1940-42 and 1945-46 and serves as a good introduction to Ellington's music of that era although veteran collectors will already have the material.

16 view cover	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Louis Armstrong (1949) more music like this by Louis Armstrong Like any record company worth their salt, MCA knows a good gimmick when they see it, and when the millennium came around -- well, the 20th Century Masters -- The Millennium Collection wasn't too far behind. Supposedly, the millennium is a momentous occasion, but it's hard to feel that way when it's used as another excuse to turn out a budget-line ... see all copies from $2.49! new only from $8.66!
17 view cover	Ken Burns Jazz (2000) more music like this by Louis Armstrong 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 $2.16! new only from $11.06!
18 view cover	Town & Country (2001) more music like this by Original Soundtrack see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
19 view cover	Paris Combo (1998) more music like this by Paris Combo The debut recording by this international French-based group draws their musical influences from many sources. Cabaret and the swing and sweet bands of the '30s and '40s become immediately apparent, and upon further inquiry Cuban and Brazilian rhythms, Spanish guitar, and gypsy music are all evident. An accomplished instrumental lineup including ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $12.55!
20 view cover	Empty Bed Blues [Living Era] (1996) more music like this by Bessie Smith This collection of some of the best Bessie Smith recordings of 1927-1928 starts out quite happy with joyous versions of "Alexander's Ragtime Band," "After You've Gone," and "There'll Be a Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight," showing that Smith could turn anything into a blues. The mood darkens later in the program with such numbers as "Send Me to ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $13.50!
21 view cover	The Best of Louis Armstrong: The Hot Five and Seven Recordings (2002) more music like this by Louis Armstrong The most important musician of the century past has had a trumpet-load of retrospectives appear since the 100th anniversary of his birth in 2001, and few are more brisk, enjoyable, shot full of goofy energy, and essential than the remastered reissue of The Best of Louis Armstrong: The Hot Five and Seven Recordings box set. The box is four CDs of ... see all copies from $11.06! new only from $11.06!
22 view cover	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of the Mills Brothers (2000) more music like this by The Mills Brothers The simple joys of the Mills Brothers remain as undiminished as they were standard-setting. With their healing set of voices in the Great Depression and war years, the members of this blithe black pop vocal group were sentimental, debonair gentlemen with the smoothest, nicest, friendliest, classiest three-part harmonies around and welcoming smiles ... see all copies from $5.93! new only from $7.29!
23 view cover	Martha Stewart Living Music: Jazz for the Holidays (2005) more music like this by Various Artists When she's not trying to restore her good name that was tarnished by insider trading, hosting a talk show, running her own business empire, or belittling potential employees in prime-time television, Martha Stewart somehow finds time to make mix CDs for her friends. These pleasant and painfully inoffensive discs usually revolve around a theme, and ... see all copies from $7.88! new only from $14.90!
24 view cover	Never No Lament: The Blanton-Webster Band (2003) more music like this by Duke Ellington Never No Lament: The Blanton-Webster Band, covering the years 1939-1942 in the great composer and bandleader's career, is essentially the third time that RCA has issued this material on CD. The first was a botched job, appalling even, with its flattened-out, compressed sound, along with a chopped version of "Take the A-Train" and other sonic and ... see all copies from $31.41! new only from $35.59!
25 view cover	The Great Summit: Complete Sessions [Deluxe Edition] (2000) more music like this by Louis Armstrong & Duke Ellington The master takes of this two-CD set have appeared previously on a number of reissues on both LP and CD as a compilation of the original two individual records Together for the First Time and The Great Reunion, but this release easily beats all of the previous issues. Two music legends, Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington, met in the studio for two ... see all copies from $24.28! new only from $25.93!
