1	Night Train (1962) more music like this by Oscar Peterson Trio Verve's Master Edition of the Oscar Peterson Trio date released as Night Train includes stately covers of blues and R&B standards like "The Honeydripper," "C-Jam Blues," "Georgia on My Mind," "Bags' Groove," "Moten Swing," and "Things Ain't What They Used to Be." Ray Brown and Ed Thigpen provide tight accompaniment, and there are six previously ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $16.81!
2	Dear Miles (2006) more music like this by Ron Carter Although he has participated in a couple of Miles Davis tribute bands and Herbie Hancock's V.S.O.P., Ron Carter always resisted leading a CD of Davis tunes, until this project. Actually only seven of the ten songs that are performed by Carter's quartet on Dear Miles were associated with the trumpeter (not the two Carter originals or "As Time Goes ... see all copies from $12.67! new only from $15.41!
3	Jazz 'Round Midnight (1992) more music like this by Oscar Peterson '92 CD featuring the exemplary trio of pianist Oscar Peterson, guitarist Herb Ellis, and bassist Ray Brown. They've worked together for so long that their empathy and communication has been second nature. Peterson's solos and direction aren't just anticipated; sometimes Ellis and Brown seem to shift with him. Their interaction, dialogues, and ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $10.29!
4	The Complete Last Concert (1974) more music like this by The Modern Jazz Quartet At the time, this two-record set was viewed as the end of an era. Now it only represents the climax of phase one. It's an excellent set, though -- among their best live efforts. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $12.83! new only from $33.62!
5	Dedicated to Connie (1960) more music like this by The Modern Jazz Quartet After drummer Connie Kay passed away, this previously unreleased concert, recorded in Slovenia in 1960, was issued on a double CD and dedicated to him. The Modern Jazz Quartet (which also includes pianist John Lewis, vibraphonist Milt Jackson and bassist Percy Heath) is heard in surprisingly inspired form playing their usual repertoire of the time ... see all copies from $13.88! new only from $17.06!
6	Moanin' Blues (1960) more music like this by Bobby Timmons As an all-on-one-disc survey of the young composer-laureate of the funky school, this compilation will do very nicely. Drawing from four of Timmons' Riverside albums and one on Prestige, all the tunes are by Timmons save "Bags' Groove" and "Born To Be Blue"; the former takes us into the more advanced harmonic territory that Timmons was starting to ... see all copies from $11.23! new only from $13.91!
7	Explosive! (1999) more music like this by Milt Jackson & the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra This is such a logical combination. When vibraphonist Milt Jackson and the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra appeared together at the Jazz Bakery near Los Angeles during the same period as when this CD was recorded, Jackson (who usually frowns when he plays) could not stop smiling. He loved both John Clayton's arrangements and the sound of the 19 ... see all copies from $5.88! new only from $33.98!
8	Modern Jazz Quartet: 1957 (2002) more music like this by The Modern Jazz Quartet see all copies from $7.77! new only from $8.00!
9	The Modern Jazz Quartet At Music Inn, Vol. 2 (1958) more music like this by The Modern Jazz Quartet with Sonny Rollins see all copies from $9.00!
10	Ohio Style (1990) more music like this by Cal Collins Quartet Guitarist Cal Collins' first album as a leader in four years was also his first for Concord in nine years. Collins' reputation as a swinging and appealing improviser was formed during his Concord years (1978-81) before he moved to Cincinnatti. This "comeback" CD was recorded in Cincinatti with some fine local musicians: flugelhornist Jerry Van ... see all copies from $34.99!
11 view cover	Don Byas Quartet Featuring Sir Charles Thompson (2001) more music like this by Don Byas & Sir Charles Thompson Don Byas, believing he was never going to get the recognition he deserved in the United States because of racial bias, left the U.S. for Europe and never looked back. Virtually all of his good work was done on the Continent. Usually cited as one of the first tenor sax players to take up the "new music" that had exploded on the scene through ... see all copies from $20.60! new only from $33.19!
12 view cover	Longing for the Continent (1958) more music like this by The Modern Jazz Quartet The Modern Jazz Quartet is well documented on a number of outstanding labels, though there is only sketchy information about the background of this particular CD. Recorded in 1958 in Europe, probably from one or more radio broadcasts, the group is in top form, though the sound is at times a bit overmodulated. In addition to favorites like John ... see all copies from $2.74! new only from $3.64!
13 view cover	Some of My Best Friends Are...The Piano Players (1994) more music like this by Ray Brown On his Telarc disc Ray Brown teams up with five different piano players but, rather than this being a tribute to the veteran bassist (who has solo space on every selection), the CD ends up being a celebration of the great Oscar Peterson because Benny Green, Dado Moroni and Geoff Keezer have, to various degrees, based their styles on O.P. The ... see all copies from $10.35! new only from $10.35!
14	The Original Jazz Masters Series, Vol. 2 (1993) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $2.75!
15 view cover	Walkin': Live at the Blue Note (1992) more music like this by George Shearing Shearing is often in joyous form on the uptempo tracks of this well-paced trio date. Highlights include such bop classics as "That's Earl, Brother," Bud Powell's "Celia" and "Subconscious Lee" along with a couple of familiar blues. In contrast the ballads are generally rather melancholy affairs with the pianist wringing as much emotion as possible ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $16.89!
16 view cover	Wizard of the Vibes (1952) more music like this by Milt Jackson The music on Wizard of the Vibes features Milt Jackson with the Thelonious Monk Quartet in a 1948 session combined with a 1952 date with his bandmates from the Modern Jazz Quartet (at that time including John Lewis, Percy Heath, and Kenny Clarke) along with alto saxophonist Lou Donaldson, who was oddly credited as the leader of the date on the ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $10.79!
17 view cover	12-15-78 (1999) more music like this by Kenny Burrell 32 Records' 12-15-78 is a double-disc set that reissues the entirety of his concert at the Village Vanguard. Originally, the show was released as two separate albums -- Live at the Village Vanguard and In New York -- but this excellent collection features all of the music from both records, which happened to be among the finest Burrell recorded in ... see all copies from $41.77! new only from $41.77!
18 view cover	The Last Concert (1974) more music like this by The Modern Jazz Quartet The Modern Jazz Quartet broke up after the concert documented on this double CD. It would be nearly seven years before the group got back together again but it certainly went out on top. Mostly revisiting their greatest hits, the MJQ is heard on this two-fer playing inspired versions of such songs as "Softly, As in a Morning Sunrise," "Bags' ... see all copies from $8.00!
19 view cover	The J.J. Johnson Memorial Album (2003) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $5.99! new only from $13.78!
20 view cover	Jazz 101: Introduction to Jazz Guitar (2000) more music like this by Various Artists A nice, affordable collection taken from the vaults of Concord Jazz. Classic jazz guitarist Charlie Byrd is followed by the contemporary styles of Emily Remler on this diverse and enjoyable CD. Zac Johnson, All Music Guide see all copies from $4.95! new only from $5.02!
21 view cover	Reflections: The Best of George Shearing, 1992-1998 (2000) more music like this by George Shearing Subtitled The Best of George Shearing (1992-1998), Reflections truly is just that. This excellent compilation culls tracks from seven discs recorded while Shearing was in his seventies, placing him in different contexts performing a variety of mostly familiar material. His solo take on Dave Brubeck's "Summer Song" is especially beautiful, and the ... see all copies from $2.64! new only from $10.44!
22 view cover	I Left My Heart... (2003) more music like this by Red Garland Recorded during pianist Red Garland's final period, this enjoyable outing (a Muse LP) has three trio numbers by Garland with bassist Chris Amberger and drummer Eddie Moore plus three selections that add altoist Leo Wright to make the group a quartet. Garland's style was unchanged from the '50s, as he shows on "Will You Still Be Mine" and "Bye Bye ... see all copies from $4.93! new only from $11.27!
23 view cover	For Hamp, Red, Bags, and Cal (2001) more music like this by Gary Burton The vibraphone legend calls this wide-ranging tribute collection his most satisfying effort to date (this is a major catalog), and the one that hits closest to home. No doubt that's because he's digging deep into his past and paying homage to the legends of the instrument who shaped his own inimitable style. The four mentioned by the album title ... see all copies from $5.68! new only from $5.68!
24 view cover	Philip Morris All-Stars Live (1998) more music like this by Gene Harris & the Phillip Morris All-Stars Philip Morris All-Stars Live is a fun release that is both accessible and reasonably creative within the swing/bop idiom. Pianist Gene Harris heads an all-star band of veterans which also includes trumpeter Harry "Sweets" Edison, tenor saxophonist Stanley Turrentine, guitarist Kenny Burrell, bassist George Mraz and drummer Lewis Nash. Everyone has ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $10.35!
25 view cover	Jackson, Johnson, Brown & Company (1983) more music like this by Milt Jackson with J.J. Johnson and Ray Brown The interplay between vibraphonist Milt Jackson and trombonist J.J. Johnson is the main reason to acquire this set. With fine backup from pianist Tom Ranier, guitarist John Collins, bassist Ray Brown and drummer Roy McCurdy, Jackson and Johnson are in top form on a variety of bop standards, including Johnson's "Lament," "Our Delight," "Bags Groove ... see all copies from $8.15! new only from $10.35!
