1	Ken Burns Jazz (2000) more music like this by Count Basie With cooperation from the Verve and Columbia Legacy catalogs, the Ken Burns Jazz series on CD individually spotlights the musical excellence of 22 jazz originators whose careers and influence are explored in Burns' PBS documentary Jazz. The selections representing Count Basie open with an early-1932 recording from Bennie Moten's Kansas City ... see all copies from $10.35! new only from $10.35!
2	Jazz: The Definitive Performances (1999) more music like this by Various Artists To commemorate the end of the century, Sony Music assembled the gargantuan 26-disc box set Sony Music 100 Years: Soundtrack for a Century. The title was imposing, as was the idea behind it -- to chronicle the life of the oldest record label in the music industry. To be clear, Sony Music has not existed for 100 years, but the heart of its catalog, ... see all copies from $23.55! new only from $23.55!
3	America's #1 Band: The Columbia Years (2003) more music like this by Count Basie Count Basie's Columbia years have long been debated, subject to apocryphal written data and legend because of the willy-nilly nature of his tenure with the label and its subsidiaries. Producer Orrin Keepnews has thus assembled America's #1 Band: The Columbia Years, a compilation of Basie's Columbia years that not only makes sense historically; it ... see all copies from $21.00! new only from $21.00!
4	The Count Basie and His Orchestra (1944) (1944) more music like this by Count Basie Orchestra Given the paucity of Basie recordings from the 1940s issued by his own label, the quality and content of this collection of 14 songs cut exclusively for radio in 1944 is scandalously good. The tracks, including a long version of "One O'Clock Jump" with an extended piano introduction by Basie, a hot version of "Lady Be Good" with guest clarinetist ... see all copies from $7.17! new only from $7.17!
5	The Bebop Years (2001) more music like this by Coleman Hawkins Covering a period from 1939-1949, The Bebop Years profiles Hawkins during the days of combo swing and bebop. That the tenor great sounds at home in both settings here is testament to his great flexibility and intellect as a player. Proper pays its respects with four discs and a lavish booklet sporting a detailed discography, extensive notes, and ... see all copies from $28.97! new only from $28.97!
6	The Will to Swing (1991) more music like this by Oscar Peterson A two-record set that tries (with limited success) to give an overview of Peterson's career on Verve. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $18.95!
7	Big Band Fever (1994) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $1.99! new only from $12.89!
8	Night Rider (1978) more music like this by Count Basie with Oscar Peterson When they first met up for a full album in 1974, the two-piano team of Count Basie and Oscar Peterson must have seemed like an unlikely matchup. After all, Peterson is known for filling up his rapid solos with virtuosic passages while Basie is the master of the "less-is-more" approach, making every note count. But because Peterson has such high ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $10.35!
9	Cruisin' with Cab (1996) more music like this by Cab Calloway & His Orchestra Cab Calloway's Orchestra is featured on radio broadcasts from two different periods on this CD. Most of the material previously appeared on an Alamac LP. The 1940 performance is most notable for the occasional solos of tenor saxophonist Chu Berry and young trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie (best featured on "Hard Times"). The 1945 broadcast is a bit odd ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $15.00!
10	Atomic Swing (1999) more music like this by Count Basie Released in 1999 to cash in on the resurgence of interest in swing music among post-baby boomers, Atomic Swing manages to transcend its immediate commercial purpose. It is the first 20-bit remastering of the Roulette library, and the sound quality alone makes it worth picking up. The 13 tracks present were cut by Basie over a six-year period with ... see all copies from $10.79! new only from $10.79!
11 view cover	Oscar Peterson Plays Count Basie (1955) more music like this by Oscar Peterson On the face of it, pianist Oscar Peterson (whose virtuosity always allowed him to play an infinite amount of notes) and Count Basie (who made inventive use of silence and space by emphasizing single rhythmic sounds) would seem to have had little in common. However they both swing, and there was a definite overlapping in their repertoire. Peterson ... see all copies from $10.35! new only from $10.35!
12 view cover	Jersey Bounce (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Undoubtedly an effort to cash in on the late-'90s swing revival, this disc is one in a series of compilations, all of which include several tracks of crucial big-band swing along with a few more square pop hits to round out the proceedings. Jersey Bounce has the title track by Benny Goodman plus Count Basie's "Basie Boogie," Duke Ellington's "It ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.98!
13 view cover	Quality Time (1995) more music like this by Frank Capp Quartet/Rickey Woodard Drummer Frank Capp heads a quartet/quintet that features the fine tenor Rickey Woodard on a variety of straightahead material. With pianist Tom Ranier, bassist Chuck Berghofer and (on two of the nine numbers) trumpeter Nolan Smith, Capp and Woodard (who switches to alto on two songs) play six standards and three group originals. Highlights of this ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.06!
14 view cover	Swing Time [Goldies] (1999) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $26.19! new only from $26.19!
15 view cover	Bandstand Memories: 1938 to 1948 (1938) more music like this by Harry James This very interesting three-CD set features trumpeter Harry James's Orchestra on a variety of previously unreleased radio broadcast performances. While there are many vocals from Frank Sinatra (in his pre-Tommy Dorsey days), Helen Forrest and Kitty Kallen, it is the instrumentals that are of greatest interest, particularly the earliest tracks ... see all copies from $14.95! new only from $26.37!
16 view cover	Great Jazz Bands: America Swings (1994) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $2.99! new only from $6.03!
17 view cover	Memories of You (1997) more music like this by Art Tatum see all copies from $3.43! new only from $4.90!
18 view cover	Play 22 Original Big Band Hits (1987) more music like this by Duke Ellington see all copies from $5.95! new only from $6.20!
19 view cover	The Last Goodun' (2002) more music like this by Jack McDuff The Last Goodun' is something of a catchall McDuff compilation, consisting of all the remaining material from his Prestige LPs that had not made it onto compact disc prior to the 2002 release of this CD. The 14 songs, all recorded between 1959-1965, thus were originally scattered among seven separate albums, using more than a dozen supporting ... see all copies from $16.90! new only from $16.90!
20 view cover	Beaver Junction (1944-1946) (1944) more music like this by Count Basie A worthy CD full of Basie rarities, it includes unissued and alternate versions of V Discs and two radio broadcasts; the one from 1944 features drummer Buddy Rich filling in for the recently drafted Jo Jones. Rich had so much fun being part of the swing machine that when Basie handed him a blank check for his services, he tore it up; the music ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $20.60!
21 view cover	This One's for Basie (1956) more music like this by Buddy Rich & His Orchestra Drummer Buddy Rich put together an interesting 11-piece group for this tribute to Count Basie. The only Basie alumnus present is trumpeter Harry "Sweets" Edison but the other soloists (trombonist Frank Rosolino and Bob Enevoldsen, Bob Cooper on tenor and pianist Jimmy Rowles) easily fit into the setting. Marty Paich contributed the arrangements, ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $39.72!
22 view cover	Rhythm Pure & Simple (2002) more music like this by Count Basie see all copies from $6.56! new only from $6.56!

24 view cover	The Manhattan Guitars (2002) more music like this by Al Caiola see all copies from $9.35! new only from $9.35!
25 view cover	The Essential Count Basie, Vol. 3 (1940) more music like this by Count Basie This is the third and thus far final volume in a sampler series picking out some of the highpoints of Count Basie's 1939-42 period on Columbia. Lester Young's departure in December 1940 robbed the orchestra of their top soloist but the band still outswung all of its competitors and the personnel was consistently outstanding. Coleman Hawkins's ... see all copies from $5.99!
