1	Christmas Songs (2005) more music like this by Diana Krall/Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra On her first full-length Christmas album, pianist/vocalist Diana Krall delivers a smoky, sophisticated, and slightly melancholy album perfectly suited to accompany egg nog cocktails and romantic afterglow holiday affairs. Although there isn't anything unexpected on Christmas Songs -- Irving Berlin's "Count Your Blessings Instead of Sheep" is as ... see all copies from $5.54! new only from $8.88!
2	Jersey Boys (2005) more music like this by Original Broadway Cast The success of the musical revue Smokey Joe's Café, which ran on Broadway between 1995 and 2000, and the book musical Mamma Mia!, which opened on Broadway in 2001 and was still running in the fall of 2005, led to a string of so-called jukebox musicals in which pop music catalogs of various performers were recycled in a theatrical context. Many of ... see all copies from $9.65! new only from $16.52!
3	Careless Love (2004) more music like this by Madeleine Peyroux Why it took vocalist Madeleine Peyroux eight years to follow up her acclaimed Dreamland album is anybody's guess. The explanation from her website bio claims, "I could have kept running with it, but I took a breather." Really it hardly matters, since there have been plenty of capable singers to fill that void. Produced by Larry Klein, Careless ... see all copies from $5.20! new only from $6.06!
4	Duets: An American Classic (2006) more music like this by Tony Bennett Tony Bennett has so many adoring celebrity fans it should come as no surprise that when a major duets album is planned, he's able to draw a roster of the biggest recording stars from the rock and vocal worlds, plus a pair of country music wildcards. (This despite the fact that he recorded an album with several duets in 2001, and a full-album ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $5.95!
5	Dino: The Essential Dean Martin (2004) more music like this by Dean Martin Dino: The Essential Dean Martin is an attempt by Capitol Records to fill up a single CD to the brim (30 tracks in nearly 78 minutes) with Dean Martin hits in the manner of the Beatles' 1. It's a welcome development from a label that was previously content to survey the same territory on the 1998 collection Greatest Hits: King of Cool, which ... see all copies from $11.47! new only from $16.51!
6	Unforgettable: With Love (1991) more music like this by Natalie Cole A major change of direction for Natalie Cole, Unforgettable found the singer abandoning the type of R&B/pop she'd been recording since 1975 in favor of jazz-influenced pre-rock pop along the lines of Nat King Cole's music. It was a surprising risk that paid off handsomely -- both commercially and artistically. Naysayers who thought that so radical ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
7	The Look of Love (2001) more music like this by Diana Krall Diana Krall has a good voice and plays decent piano, but this somewhat ridiculously packaged Verve CD seems like an obvious attempt to turn her into a pop icon, and sex symbol to boot. The bland arrangements by Claus Ogerman (who conducts the London Symphony Orchetra or the Los Angeles Session Orchestra on each track) border on easy listening, ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $12.00!
8	Only You (2004) more music like this by Harry Connick, Jr. Featuring ballads from the '50s and '60s, Only You finds vocalist/pianist Harry Connick, Jr. further developing his contemporary crooner aesthetic. Having begun his career covering popular songs from the '20s through the '40s, it's surprising that Connick never before explored tunes from the baby boomer era. In some ways, it's almost as if he ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $4.59!
9	From This Moment On (2006) more music like this by Diana Krall Returning to the large ensemble sound of her 2005 success, Christmas Songs, pianist/vocalist Diana Krall delivers a superb performance on 2006's From This Moment On. Although having received a largely positive critical response for her creative departure into original singer/songwriter jazz material on 2004's The Girl in the Other Room, here ... see all copies from $5.28! new only from $9.35!
10	Sings the Rosemary Clooney Songbook (2003) more music like this by Bette Midler Cabaret icon Bette Midler reunites with her old piano partner Barry Manilow for the first time in over 30 years to toast one of their mutual idols on Sings the Rosemary Clooney Songbook. Clooney was one of the top jazz/pop vocalists of the '50s whose clear, bright tone, impeccable melodicism, and smiling, girl-next-door image came together to make ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $11.06!
11 view cover	Brian Stokes Mitchell (2006) more music like this by Brian Stokes Mitchell Brian Stokes Mitchell's first solo album has been a long time coming and, as revealed in the annotations, a long time in preparation; recording spread over nearly six years, from April 2000 to January 2006. As Mitchell notes, during that period he was busy doing other things, notably appearing in Broadway musicals and performing on their cast ... see all copies from $14.38! new only from $16.59!
12 view cover	The World of Nat King Cole (2005) more music like this by Nat King Cole Easily the longest of any Capitol single-disc compilation, 2005's The World of Nat King Cole also benefits from a fresh remastering of its material to make it the best introduction to the interpretive brilliance of Nat King Cole. Nearly all the hits that need to be here are indeed present: "Straighten Up and Fly Right," "Route 66," "Nature Boy," ... see all copies from $17.79! new only from $17.79!
13 view cover	Avant Gershwin (2007) more music like this by Patti Austin A staple of pop, R&B and jazz over the past thirty years, this impossibly versatile singer's 16 album career during that time rolls like a fascinating journey through those genres while also drawing wisdom and inspiration on occasion from The Great American Songbook. Avant Gershwin, Patti Austin's shimmering hour-plus tour de force through both ... see all copies from $5.07! new only from $15.70!
14 view cover	Gershwin Plays Gershwin: The Piano Rolls (1993) more music like this by George Gershwin George Gershwin made 130 piano rolls between 1916-1927; 28 were recorded and released in 1998 on two Nonesuch CDs. This particular release has quite a few obscure Gershwin songs, including his very first tune, "When You Want 'Em, You Can't Get 'Em, When You've Got 'Em, You Don't Want 'Em." Certainly such tunes as "Novelette in Fourths," "So Am I," ... see all copies from $2.49! new only from $16.52!
15 view cover	Taking a Chance on Love (2004) more music like this by Jane Monheit see all copies from $5.40! new only from $12.69!
16 view cover	Surrender (2007) more music like this by Jane Monheit At once crisply assertive and lovingly sensual, vocalist Jane Monheit is the jazz equivalent of the young and charming grade school teacher you secretly nurtured a crush on. A sophisticated bombshell of a performer with a voice that is, like her appearance, voluptuous and flawlessly pretty, Monheit has garnered well-earned comparisons to such ... see all copies from $5.79! new only from $8.79!
17 view cover	The Dana Owens Album (2004) more music like this by Queen Latifah The hooks on the rap records indicated it could be possible, the roles in Living Out Loud and Chicago made it possible -- the first record in which Dana Owens, better known as Queen Latifah, does nothing but sing. On The Dana Owens Album, she takes on vocal standards and an unlikely array of blues, pop, and soul classics that were adaptable to ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $14.52!
18 view cover	The Season (2005) more music like this by Jane Monheit Jane Monheit followed her 2004 Sony debut, Taking a Chance on Love, with the Christmas album The Season. It's an inevitable release. Monheit's star has risen consistently -- she's one of the darlings (or saviors) of contemporary vocal jazz alongside artists like Madeleine Peyroux and Norah Jones -- so something as pretty and easily salable as The ... see all copies from $5.75! new only from $5.75!
19 view cover	Trav'lin' Light (2007) more music like this by Queen Latifah Trav'lin' Light, Queen Latifah's follow-up to her first collection of pop standards, The Dana Owens Album (2004), is, if anything, even better than that Grammy-nominated set. Contemporary performers often get into trouble when they take on music of the pre-rock era, but this one, who is by now so far removed from her origins that she probably ... see all copies from $4.35! new only from $13.34!
20 view cover	The Best of the Songbooks (1993) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald Simply a grand and eloquent performance put together by Verve records highlighting the best years of Ella Fitzgerald -- that sassy, charming legendary singer in jazz. The Best of the Songbooks features a captivating lineup of some of jazz's greatest composers and arrangers. It is here that Fitzgerald records and sings songs of Cole Porter, Richard ... see all copies from $3.49! new only from $10.29!
21 view cover	The Essential Tony Bennett [Columbia/Legacy] (2002) more music like this by Tony Bennett Like most entries in Sony/Legacy's Essential series, 2002's The Essential Tony Bennett is an excellent, exhaustive retrospective of a lengthy, hit-filled career at Columbia. Although Bennett spent time at other labels -- particularly in the '70s -- he made his best-known and greatest recordings for Columbia, from the late '50s through the '90s, ... see all copies from $9.32! new only from $10.99!
22 view cover	The Best of Broadway [Rhino] (1995) more music like this by Various Artists Rhino's The Best of Broadway shouldn't necessarily be seen as a definitive overview of Broadway show tunes, which, after all, have a rich and varied history. Instead, it should be seen as an affordable, diverse, and, at 20 tracks, generous introduction to the glorious riches of the Great White Way. True, the featured tracks aren't necessarily the ... see all copies from $3.43! new only from $10.76!
23 view cover	The Italian (2005) more music like this by Patrizio Buanne Patrizio Buanne is veritably obsessed with the sound and style of the 1950s and '60s. As a child, he won an Elvis impersonation competition when he dressed as the young version of the King, and he grew up listening almost solely to Italian or Italian-inspired music from that same time period. And now, with his debut album, The Italian, he is able ... see all copies from $6.75! new only from $6.75!
24 view cover	Sings the Ultimate American Songbook, Vol. 1 (2007) more music like this by Tony Bennett A different sort of Tony Bennett compilation than the usual, Sings the Ultimate American Songbook, Vol. 1 packages 15 performances, spanning five decades, that comprise, from Bennett's brief notes, "A revolution in popular music that will never be topped." (He's speaking, of course, about the American songbook and not his performing career.) While ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $16.59!
25 view cover	Best of Bing Crosby: 20th Century Masters/The Christmas Collection (2003) more music like this by Bing Crosby This edition in Universal's discount-priced compilation series 20th Century Masters/The Christmas Collection is actually a re-titled reissue of the 1999 collection The Very Best of Bing Crosby Christmas, itself a single-disc distillation of the two-CD set The Voice of Christmas/The Complete Decca Christmas Songbook. It is an excellent 18-track ... see all copies from $4.74! new only from $4.93!
