1	Come Away with Me (2002) more music like this by Norah Jones Norah Jones' debut on Blue Note is a mellow, acoustic pop affair with soul and country overtones, immaculately produced by the great Arif Mardin. (It's pretty much an open secret that the 22-year-old vocalist and pianist is the daughter of Ravi Shankar.) Jones is not quite a jazz singer, but she is joined by some highly regarded jazz talent: ... see all copies from $5.80! new only from $7.94!
2	Feels Like Home (2004) more music like this by Norah Jones It may be far too obvious to even mention that Norah Jones' follow-up to her 18-million-unit-selling, eight-Grammy-winning, genre-bending, super-smash album Come Away With Me has perhaps a bit too much to live up to. But that's probably the biggest conundrum for Jones: having to follow up the phenomenal success of an album that was never designed ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $16.84!
3	The Girl in the Other Room (2004) more music like this by Diana Krall While the jazz fascists (read: purists) may be screaming "sellout" because Diana Krall decided to record something other than standards this time out, the rest of us can enjoy the considerable fruit of her labors. The Girl in the Other Room is, without question, a jazz record in the same manner her other outings are. The fact that it isn't made up ... see all copies from $4.39! new only from $4.39!
4	Love Scenes (1997) more music like this by Diana Krall Vocalist/pianist Diana Krall was a very hot property by the time this Impulse CD was released. Teamed in a trio with her regular guitarist Russell Malone and bassist Christian McBride, Krall here mostly emphasizes ballads having something to do with love. She is at her best on "I Don't Know Enough About You," "I Don't Stand a Ghost of a Chance ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $11.87!
5	A Wonderful World (2002) more music like this by Tony Bennett & k.d. lang Tony Bennett has sung with k.d. lang previously, notably on his MTV Unplugged album, and the two have meshed well together, largely because of lang's willingness to sublimate herself to Bennett's approach. The same thing can be said of the two on this full-length duet album (which also contains solos -- Bennett is heard alone on "That's My Dream," ... see all copies from $6.30! new only from $6.30!
6	In the Wee Small Hours (1954) more music like this by Frank Sinatra Expanding on the concept of Songs for Young Lovers!, In the Wee Small Hours was a collection of ballads arranged by Nelson Riddle. The first 12" album recorded by Sinatra, Wee Small Hours was more focused and concentrated than his two earlier concept records. It's a blue, melancholy album, built around a spare rhythm section featuring a rhythm ... see all copies from $7.96! new only from $10.32!
7	September of My Years (1965) more music like this by Frank Sinatra September of My Years is one of Frank Sinatra's triumphs of the '60s, an album that consolidated his strengths while moving him into new territory, primarily in terms of tone. More than the double-disc set A Man and His Music -- which was released a year after this album -- September of My Years captures how Sinatra was at the time of his 50th ... see all copies from $6.25! new only from $10.32!
8	Totally Bublé (2003) more music like this by Michael Bublé After the success of Michael Bublé's self-titled debut, DRG belatedly released this jazzy soundtrack from the 2001 film Totally Blonde in which Bublé had a co-starring role as a nightclub singer. Capitalizing on Bublé's newfound stardom, DRG basically ignores the music's connection to the film by altering the title and putting a shot of Bublé on ... see all copies from $5.24! new only from $9.27!
9	Sunday at the Village Vanguard (1961) more music like this by Bill Evans Trio Sunday at the Village Vanguard (and Waltz for Debby, its companion album) is one of the most important piano trio albums in history and a desert-island choice among many musicians. It marks the final appearance of bassist Scott LaFaro with Evans and drummer Paul Motian. LaFaro demonstrated a concept of jazz bass playing here that shattered ... see all copies from $7.19! new only from $7.19!
10	Sinatra Reprise: The Very Good Years (1991) more music like this by Frank Sinatra Sinatra Reprise: The Very Good Years is an excellent single-disc retrospective of Sinatra's career at Reprise, including most of his signature songs from the '60s, '70s, and '80s. Hits like "My Way," "That's Life," "Summer Wind," "Strangers in the Night," "It Was a Very Good Year," and "New York, New York" are present, as are songs that were never ... see all copies from $2.93!
11 view cover	Only the Lonely (1958) more music like this by Frank Sinatra Originally, Frank Sinatra had planned to record Only the Lonely with Gordon Jenkins, who had arranged his previous all-ballads album, Where Are You. Jenkins was unavailable at the time of the sessions, which led Sinatra back to his original arranger at Capitol, Nelson Riddle. The result is arguably his greatest ballads album. Only the Lonely ... see all copies from $11.24! new only from $14.69!
12 view cover	Explorations (1961) more music like this by Bill Evans Trio When this album was recorded in February of 1961, it had been more than year since the Portrait in Jazz was issued, the disc that won the critics over. By the time of this issue, Evans had released four albums in six years, a pace unheard of during that time. Most musicians were issuing two, three, and even four records a year during the same era. ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
13 view cover	The Best of Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong (1997) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong The Best of Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong from Verve contains a selection of 15 duets the two jazz legends recorded for the label over the years. Clearly, this set isn't of particular interest to hardcore collectors, since they'll already own much of the material, but as a sampler targeted at casual fans, this is quite nice indeed, since it ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $10.29!
14 view cover	Coltrane for Lovers (1962) more music like this by John Coltrane If you came across a CD titled Getz for Lovers, Prez for Lovers, or Baker for Lovers, you wouldn't be the least bit surprised. After all, Stan Getz, Chet Baker, and Lester "The Pres" Young were all famous for their smooth ballad playing -- if you've been listening to Julie London or June Christy and suddenly find yourself in the mood for something ... see all copies from $3.13! new only from $6.04!
15 view cover	Classic Sinatra: His Greatest Performances 1953-1960 (2000) more music like this by Frank Sinatra A good single-disc compilation of his Capitol years, covering 1953 to the beginning of the 1960s. His Capitol output was so extensive that it's impossible for a 20-song anthology to give a comprehensive overview even of the highlights. Also, as this focuses on the albums he made with Capitol, some of his biggest hits of the time are omitted, such ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $9.00!
16 view cover	16 Most Requested Songs (1989) more music like this by Johnny Mathis 16 Most Requested Songs, a midline-priced collection, spotlights some of Johnny Mathis' best-known and most popular performances for Columbia Records. Although other sets may have a few more tracks, this is a very entertaining sampler, featuring such songs as "Chances Are," "It's Not for Me to Say," "Wonderful! Wonderful!," "When Sunny Gets Blue," ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
17 view cover	Everything I Have Is Yours: The Best of the M-G-M Years (1991) more music like this by Billy Eckstine This two-CD set improves upon the original two-LP package by adding 14 more songs. The pop side of Billy Eckstine was emphasized during his period with MGM and many of these selections (including hit versions of "Everything I Have Is Yours," "Blue Moon," "Caravan," "My Foolish Heart," and "I Apologize") feature his warm baritone backed by string ... see all copies from $7.80! new only from $27.05!
18 view cover	Blue Alert (2006) more music like this by Anjani Anjani Thomas has been writing and recording since the 1980s after graduating from the Berklee College of Music. A skilled jazz pianist, her break came from her mentor, Leonard Cohen (who she has been working with since 1984), when she sang on "Hallelujah" on Cohen's 1985 Various Positions LP and was such an integral part of his 2004 recording, ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $4.99!
19 view cover	Pure Ella (1950) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald In 1950, six years before her acclaimed Song Book series for Verve, Ella Fitzgerald recorded eight George and Ira Gershwin classics in intimate duets with the sensitive and lightly swinging pianist Ellis Larkins. Four years later she recorded a dozen more songs (this time by a variety of composers) with Larkins, and all 20 performances are ... see all copies from $6.41! new only from $6.41!
20 view cover	Johnny's Greatest Hits (1958) more music like this by Johnny Mathis The original greatest-hits package, which stayed on the charts for ten years; includes "Chances Are," "It's Not for Me to Say, " "Wonderful! Wonderful!" and "The Twelfth of Never." It seldom gets more romantic than this. Cub Koda, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.90!
21 view cover	The Essential Johnny Mathis (2004) more music like this by Johnny Mathis see all copies from $13.75! new only from $13.75!
22 view cover	17 Most Requested Songs (1990) more music like this by Jerry Vale 17 Most Requested Songs is a midline-priced collection that spotlights many of Jerry Vale's best-known and most popular performances for Columbia Records, including "Have You Looked into Your Heart," "Mama," "Old Cape Cod," "You Don't Know Me," "Tears Keep on Falling," "O Solo Mio," "The Impossible Dream," and "Love Is a Many Splendored Thing." ... see all copies from $5.75! new only from $6.63!
23 view cover	Belly of the Sun (2002) more music like this by Cassandra Wilson Cassandra Wilson continues to move down a highly eclectic path on Belly of the Sun, the somewhat belated follow-up to Traveling Miles. While displaying a jazz singer's mastery of melodic nuance and improvisatory phrasing, Wilson draws on a variety of non-jazz idioms -- roots music, rock, Delta blues, country, soul -- to create a kind of earthy, ... see all copies from $15.98! new only from $15.98!
24 view cover	Standard Time, Vol. 3: The Resolution of Romance (1990) more music like this by Wynton Marsalis On the third of his three standards albums, trumpeter Wynton Marsalis meets up with his father, pianist Ellis Marsalis (along with bassist Reginald Veal and drummer Herlin Riley), for 17 standards and three of his originals (including "In the Court of King Oliver"). Wynton, perhaps because of his father's presence, is very respectful of the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.50!
25 view cover	Where Are You? (1957) more music like this by Frank Sinatra Following the hard-driving A Swingin' Affair, Frank Sinatra released another all-ballads record, Where Are You? The album was the first he recorded at Capitol without Nelson Riddle, as well as the first he recorded in stereo. Where Riddle's down beat albums are stately and sullen, Jenkins favors lush, melancholy arrangements played by large, ... see all copies from $3.59! new only from $15.11!
