1	Buena Vista Social Club (1997) more music like this by Buena Vista Social Club This album is named after a members-only club that was opened in Havana in pre-Castro times, a period of unbelievable musical activity in Cuba. While bandleader Desi Arnaz became a huge hit in the States, several equally talented musicians never saw success outside their native country, and have had nothing but their music to sustain them during ... see all copies from $7.54! new only from $10.88!
2	A Toda Cuba Le Gusta (1997) more music like this by Afro-Cuban All Stars A lively, spontaneous record that manages to sound both relaxed and forceful at the same time, A Toda Cuba Le Gusta shows off the talents of many of Cuba's elder statesmen of Afro-Cuban jazz. Over gently pulsating conga grooves and low-register ostinatos, such luminaries as pianist Ruben Gonzalez and singer Manuel "Puntillita" Licea float dramatic ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $16.85!
3	Lagrimas Negras (2004) more music like this by Bebo & Cigala Lágrimas Negras (Black Tears) is a collaborative effort between the octogenarian Cuban piano master Bebo Valdés and the reigning Spanish flamenco cantador, Dieguito El Cigala. Recorded for Fernando Trueba and Nat Chediak's Calle 54 label, the sessions took place in Madrid between September and December 2002. Maestro Valdés (born in 1918), the ... see all copies from $7.87! new only from $7.87!
4	Several Shades of Jade/Breeze from the East (1963) more music like this by Cal Tjader Prodded by producer Creed Taylor, Cal Tjader turned momentarily away from pure Latin jazz to explore some polystylistic fusions of East and West on a pair of 1963 Verve albums. The first, Several Shades of Jade, finds Tjader in the intriguing company of Lalo Schifrin, who provides some searching, delicate, challenging, and yes, grooving ... see all copies from $13.91! new only from $13.91!
5	Solo Piano (1991) more music like this by Chucho Valdes The leader and founder of Irakere, Chucho Valdes is also a brilliant pianist who may be on the same level of Gonzalo Rubalcaba. He has a very impressive classical technique and is able to hint at such players as McCoy Tyner, Lennie Tristano, and Cecil Taylor without watering down his Cuban heritage. This dazzling set covers a lot of ground with ... see all copies from $11.13! new only from $11.13!
6	Soul Sauce (1964) more music like this by Cal Tjader Soul Sauce is one of the highlights from Tjader's catalog with its appealing mixture of mambo, samba, bolero, and boogaloo styles. Tjader's core band -- long-time piano player Lonnie Hewitt, drummer Johnny Rae and percussionist's Willie Bobo and Armanda PerazaÑ -- starts things off with a cooled down version of Dizzy Gillespie and Chano Pozo's ... see all copies from $13.71! new only from $13.71!
7	Una Sangre (One Blood) (2004) more music like this by Lila Downs Una Sangre (One Blood), Lila Downs' fourth album for the Narada label, is her most restless. Downs is best known to American audiences for her appearance in the film Frida (about the legendary Mexican painter Frida Kahlo) and her major contribution to the film's soundtrack. She has long been in the trenches knitting the indigenous music of her ... see all copies from $6.36! new only from $15.98!
8	Buena Vista Social Club Presents: Manuel Guajiro Mirabal (2005) more music like this by Manuel "El Guajiro" Mirabal see all copies from $16.85! new only from $16.85!
9	Watermelon Man (1962) more music like this by Mongo Santamaria Herbie Hancock's "Watermelon Man" was a gigantic hit for Mongo Santamaria in 1963, doing for him in the '60s what Pérez Prado's big mambo hits did for him in the '50s. Naturally, then, the follow-up LP to the single is devoted to 12 airplay-length tracks loaded with bright, swinging Latin cha-chas and mambo rhythms mixed with blues, soul, and ... see all copies from $7.63! new only from $16.93!
10	Calle 54 (2001) more music like this by Original Soundtrack One exciting thing about asking a label like Blue Note to provide a jazz soundtrack is the depth of catalog there is to draw from. And if that's Latin and Brazilian jazz, all the merrier. Obviously, it will be interesting to see how these 12 tunes match up to the images of the movie, but on its own, this disc is a great sampler of top-notch music ... see all copies from $3.95! new only from $15.81!
11 view cover	The Common Ground (1960) more music like this by Herbie Mann Afro-Jazz Sextet + Four Trumpets Herbie Mann is a capable jazz flutist, but his music has mostly been known in the popular sense. This means that while he could've continued his bop career after the 1950s, he worked toward offering a hybrid instead, a form of pop-jazz that could be easily accepted by middle America. On the surface, The Common Ground (originally released in 1960; ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.72!
12 view cover	Distinto Diferente (1999) more music like this by Afro-Cuban All Stars Introduced into a completely different climate for Latin music compared to the Afro-Cuban All Stars' 1997 debut, Distinto Diferente undoubtedly benefits from the increased commercial and artistic attention given to Afro-Cuban music in the wake of the Buena Vista Social Club (which includes many of the same members). Leader Juan de Marcos González ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $6.00!
13 view cover	The Complete RCA Victor Recordings: 1947-1949 (1947) more music like this by Dizzy Gillespie Although the sheer scope of this double-CD roundup of all of Dizzy's Victor sessions places it most obviously within the evolution of bebop, it is absolutely essential to Latin jazz collections as well. Here listeners find the discographical launching pad of Afro-Cuban jazz on December 22, 1947, when Cuban conguero Chano Pozo added his galvanic ... see all copies from $22.14! new only from $22.14!
14 view cover	At Newport (1957) more music like this by Dizzy Gillespie This CD features Dizzy Gillespie's second great big band at the peak of its powers. On the rapid "Dizzy's Blues" and a truly blazing "Cool Breeze," the orchestra really roars; the latter performance features extraordinary solos by Gillespie, trombonist Al Grey, and tenor saxophonist Billy Mitchell. In addition to fine renditions of "Manteca" and ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
15 view cover	Discovery: Live at Montreux (1990) more music like this by Gonzalo Rubalcaba One of the most exciting major-label debuts during the 1990s was Gonzalo Rubalcaba's Discovery, a trio date at the 1990 Montreux Jazz Festival with bassist Charlie Haden and drummer Paul Motian. Haden had discovered the young pianist during an appearance in Cuba several years earlier and was surprised at his level of development considering his ... see all copies from $5.96! new only from $6.28!
16 view cover	Birk's Works: Verve Big Band Sessions (1956) more music like this by Dizzy Gillespie Dizzy Gillespie's globetrotting big band of 1956-1957 was one of his finest groups, a very exciting orchestra that at various times had such players as trumpeters Gillespie, Joe Gordon, and Lee Morgan, trombonists Melba Liston and Al Grey, altoists Phil Woods and Ernie Henry, the tenors of Billy Mitchell, Ernie Wilkins, and Benny Golson, and ... see all copies from $14.98! new only from $20.69!
17 view cover	Danzon (Dance On) (1993) more music like this by Arturo Sandoval Trumpeter Arturo Sandoval comes close on Danzon to cutting the Afro-Cuban masterpiece everyone's awaited since his glorious sound first surfaced. From the animated solos on "Africa," "Tres Palabras," and "Conjunto" to the flowing, crisply articulated lines on "Groovin' High," Sandoval plays with imagination, verve and flair, displaying a more ... see all copies from $11.24! new only from $13.91!
18 view cover	Here and There (1976) more music like this by Cal Tjader This single CD reissues all of the music from vibraphonist Cal Tjader's Guarabe LP plus five of the six tracks from Here. During this period, the influential Latin-jazz pioneer was leading a hornless quintet/sextet that included Clare Fischer's electric piano as a key part of the band's sound. With guitarist Bob Redfield, bassist Rob Fisher, ... see all copies from $9.44! new only from $13.91!
19 view cover	Solo (2005) more music like this by Gonzalo Rubalcaba see all copies from $14.11! new only from $14.11!
20 view cover	The Very Best of Arturo Sandoval (2004) more music like this by Arturo Sandoval Very Best of Arturo Sandoval contains 11 well-chosen tracks taken from the Cuban jazz trumpeter, focusing on his '90s recordings for the GRP label. The majority of these tracks are Sandoval originals that show off his technical ability and agile virtuosity, especially on "The Latin Trane," "A Mis Abuelos," and his intimate use of a mute on the ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
21 view cover	The Best of Dizzy Gillespie [Pablo] (1992) more music like this by Dizzy Gillespie see all copies from $2.18! new only from $2.18!
22 view cover	The Complete Verve Master Takes (2003) more music like this by Charlie Parker see all copies from $38.19! new only from $38.19!
23 view cover	Gillespiana/Carnegie Hall Concert (1960) more music like this by Dizzy Gillespie This CD combines two complete and related LPs. When Lalo Schifrin joined the Dizzy Gillespie Quintet in 1960, he was encouraged by Gillespie to write an extended work for him. "Gillespiana" was the result, an impressive five-movement suite that showcased the trumpeter's talents with a large orchestra. The latter half of this CD was recorded at ... see all copies from $13.71! new only from $13.71!
24 view cover	Inner Voyage (1999) more music like this by Gonzalo Rubalcaba After taking the jazz world by storm with his exciting debut CD on Blue Note in 1991, Gonzalo Rubalcaba continued to delight his fans throughout the decade with one great recording after another. "Yolanda Anas," "Joan," and "Joao" -- each one a tribute to one of his children -- are intimate musical portraits that have a childlike simplicity, but ... see all copies from $6.32! new only from $6.32!
25 view cover	Bele Bele en La Habana (1998) more music like this by Chucho Valdes Issued just after his landmark two-week June 1998 gig at the Village Vanguard and subsequent U.S./Canada tour, Chucho Valdés' first album for Blue Note bears out a lot of the hype surrounding this hugely gifted Cuban pianist. Unlike many of today's younger Cuban keyboard hotshots, Valdés not only has great technical chops and musical erudition, ... see all copies from $14.97! new only from $14.97!
