1	Red Hot + Blue: A Tribute to Cole Porter (1991) more music like this by Various Artists A fitfully entertaining collection of contemporary pop stars interpreting classic Cole Porter songs, Red Hot + Blue highlights include U2, Sinead O'Connor, Kirsty MacColl & the Pogues, Neneh Cherry, and David Byrne, but the best part of the disc is the wonderfully campy duet between Deborah Harry and Iggy Pop on "Well Did You Evah." All Music ... see all copies from $8.25! new only from $11.13!
2	The Essential Johnny Mathis (2004) more music like this by Johnny Mathis see all copies from $9.89! new only from $13.75!
3	Dream Dancing: Songs of Cole Porter (2001) more music like this by Beegie Adair This straight-ahead Cole Porter tribute was one of the first three releases from Hillsboro, a Nashville-based label that got off the ground in early 2001. (The other two were Antoine Silverman's Blue Moods and Jack Jezzro's Jazz Elegance.) Pianist Beegie Adair certainly knows her way around these songs, and she's aided expertly by bassist Roger ... see all copies from $11.38! new only from $11.38!
4	The Very Best of Cole Porter [Hip-O] (2004) more music like this by Cole Porter Contrasts, whether ironic or not, were continually at the heart of Cole Porter's timeless songs, as befits a man who greeted the world as the very definition of a sophisticated New Yorker, but was actually born in Peru, IN. Porter's careful studies of people in love are filled with obsessive characters who express hope but are frightfully ... see all copies from $9.16! new only from $9.16!
5	Ken Burns Jazz: The Story of America's Music (2000) more music like this by Various Artists In conjunction with documentary filmmaker Ken Burns' ten-part 2000 PBS special, Columbia/Legacy and Verve teamed up to issue a special series of reissues covering much of the history of 20th century jazz. The central release of this program is the five-CD box set Ken Burns Jazz: The Story of America's Music, its 94 selections covering the history ... see all copies from $14.29! new only from $50.06!
6	Sings Cole Porter (1990) more music like this by Dionne Warwick see all copies from $18.74!
7	De-Lovely (2004) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to De-Lovely -- a film that imagines the unusual love story and marriage of classic American songwriter Cole Porter (who was gay) and Linda Lee Porter as the kind of all-singing, all-dancing production for which Porter himself might have written the songs -- is a whirl of contrasting, and occasionally clashing, performances that ... see all copies from $4.68! new only from $8.68!
8	Sings the Cole Porter Song Book (1956) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald A striking two-CD set featuring arguably history's finest jazz singer singing some of the best-written American pop standards on one of jazz's most prolific labels. Ella Fitzgerald shines as the perfect interpreter of Cole Porter's bittersweet love songs on these 35 tracks from the Verve archives. Recorded and released on LP in 1956, Ella is ... see all copies from $11.90! new only from $29.87!
9	The Only Big Band CD You'll Ever Need (2000) more music like this by Various Artists While the title alone would seem to invite criticism, it's a justified tag, as this 20-track collection rounds up some pretty serious contenders. Kicking off with Glenn Miller's "Chattanooga Choo Choo," Benny Goodman's "Stompin' at the Savoy," and Duke Ellington's "Take the 'A' Train," the set includes signature tunes from Woody Herman, Artie Shaw ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $12.69!
10	The Rocketeer (1991) more music like this by James Horner Before Titanic, James Horner was not above composing scores for cartoonish family films, and many of those that brought him on their production board owe him greatly. The Rocketeer directed by Joe Johnston (Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, Jumanji, October Sky) entails the story of a young pilot during World War II who happens upon a rocket pack that ... see all copies from $10.88! new only from $13.34!

12 view cover	It's De Lovely: The Authentic Cole Porter Collection (2004) more music like this by Cole Porter Whenever great American song in general, or a classic songwriter specifically, goes through another phase of popularity, record labels invariably cast around to assemble yet another round of songbook compilations with artists from their catalog interpreting the standards. In 2004, on the occasion of the Cole Porter biopic De-Lovely (starring Kevin ... see all copies from $7.19! new only from $8.33!

The central release of this program was the five-CD box set Ken Burns Jazz: The Story of America's Music, which was augmented by no less than 22 ... see all copies from $3.14! new only from $3.14!
14 view cover	The Other Chet Atkins (1960) more music like this by Chet Atkins The Other Chet Atkins is something of an unusual entry in Atkins' catalog -- an entire album of the guitarist playing Spanish guitar, with no electric instruments or country music to be heard. It's a gentle, lilting album, featuring understated versions of "The Streets of Laredo," "Maria Elena," "Marcheta," and "Begin the Beguine." Thom Owens, ... see all copies from $4.99!
15 view cover	Sketches on Standards (1953) more music like this by Stan Kenton This LP contains six Bill Russo arrangements, five from Stan Kenton, and one by Lennie Niehaus. The repertoire features many songs not associated with Kenton (such as "Sophisticated Lady," "Pennies from Heaven," and "Over the Rainbow"), but the inventive yet melodic treatments certainly sound like the Kenton band. The main soloists are altoist Lee ... see all copies from $6.07! new only from $11.13!

17 view cover	Cole Porter: A Centennial Celebration (1932) more music like this by Cole Porter This master of the urban lyric and chic tune is himself heard here singing demos of three of his standards. Includes 20 performances from the '30s to '80s, featuring Fred Astaire, Artie Shaw, Lena Horne, and others. This is the cornerstone of 20th-century music. Mark A. Humphrey, All Music Guide see all copies from $6.04! new only from $11.06!
18 view cover	Dancing in the Dark (1999) more music like this by Artie Shaw see all copies from $6.00!
19 view cover	Back to Balboa (1958) more music like this by Stan Kenton For this LP, Stan Kenton's Orchestra performs seven Johnny Richards arrangements and two from Marty Paich, along with Bill Holman's "Royal Blue." The 1958 Kenton big band had several excellent soloists, and there is a generous amount of individual space for tenor saxophonist Bill Perkins, altoist Lennie Niehaus, trumpeter Sam Noto, and trombonist ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $11.13!
20 view cover	22 All Time Big Band Favorites (1987) more music like this by Lawrence Welk Lawrence Welk, the man who entertained America for 29 consecutive years on television, was as famous for his accent as much as his music. But beyond being the brunt of many jokes, the man knew what America wanted. On this collection of big-band favorites, Welk and company come up with a thoroughly entertaining collection. Whether performing their ... see all copies from $6.94! new only from $11.11!
21 view cover	Call Me Irresponsible/My Fair Lady (1999) more music like this by Andy Williams In 1964, Andy Williams released two albums, one devoted to movie theme songs, the other to Broadway show tunes; they are combined on this CD reissue. Since becoming associated with the Henry Mancini-Johnny Mercer song "Moon River" and releasing an earlier film song album, Moon River & Other Great Movie Themes in 1962, Williams had become the ... see all copies from $7.49! new only from $12.01!

25 view cover	33 1/3 (2004) more music like this by The Frank & Joe Show The Frank & Joe Show is actually a partnership between Django Reinhardt-influenced guitarist Frank Vignola (who often overdubs a rhythm line behind his lead) and phenomenal percussionist Joe Ascione. Their eclectic CD primarily emphasizes music from the swing era, though there are a few exceptions. Their sense of adventure begins with their ... see all copies from $4.48! new only from $4.48!
