1	Brainwashed (2002) more music like this by George Harrison George Harrison went quiet not long after the second Traveling Wilburys album, surfacing only for the Beatles' Anthology in the mid-'90s. He was recording all the while, yet he died before completing the album that would have been the follow-up to 1987's Cloud Nine. His son, Dhani, and his longtime friend/collaborator Jeff Lynne completed the ... see all copies from $4.08! new only from $16.84!
2	Straight, No Chaser (1966) more music like this by Thelonious Monk This is the sixth studio album cut by Thelonious Monk under the production/direction of Teo Macero for Columbia and as such should not be confused with the original motion picture soundtrack to the 1988 film of the same name. The original disc only included six performances, half of which were edited due to the stringent time constraints of vinyl. ... see all copies from $11.06! new only from $11.06!
3	Steppin' Out (1993) more music like this by Diana Krall Krall's first recording remains an eye and ear opener. Without the overt schmaltz, Krall proves a sincere singer and, more so, a fine pianist whose talent in this area would later become sublimated. If you want to hear not only the roots of Krall's jazzier and romantic side, not to mention the fun, you'll get it all on this remastered CD, with a ... see all copies from $4.72! new only from $15.28!
4	One More for the Road (2006) more music like this by Toots Thielemans see all copies from $16.81! new only from $16.81!
5	The Best of the Songbooks (1993) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald Simply a grand and eloquent performance put together by Verve records highlighting the best years of Ella Fitzgerald -- that sassy, charming legendary singer in jazz. The Best of the Songbooks features a captivating lineup of some of jazz's greatest composers and arrangers. It is here that Fitzgerald records and sings songs of Cole Porter, Richard ... see all copies from $3.49! new only from $10.29!
6	Sings the Harold Arlen Song Book (1960) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald Ella Fitzgerald's idea to sing the songbooks of major writers proved smart, savvy, and artful. By the time she began to record Sings the Harold Arlen Song Book in 1960, she had sung the songbooks of Duke Ellington, Rodgers & Hart, and Irving Berlin. This relaxed and tastefully arranged set showcases Fitzgerald in her prime, confidently engaging 28 ... see all copies from $32.87! new only from $32.87!
7	Who Can I Turn To (1964) more music like this by Tony Bennett Tony Bennett returned to the Top 40 in late 1964 with his version of the Leslie Bricusse-Anthony Newley anthem "Who Can I Turn To (When Nobody Needs Me)," from Newley's Broadway show The Roar Of The Greasepaint, The Smell Of The Crowd. That song, like the rest of this album, was arranged and conducted by George Siravo, who made detailed ballad ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.54!
8	Skylark (1956) more music like this by Annie Ross This little-known set (reissued on CD) from 1956 features singer Annie Ross four years after she originally recorded "Twisted" but a year before the formation of Lambert, Hendricks & Ross. Based in London at the time, Ross avoids scatting and vocalese in favor of conventional swinging and jazz-oriented interpretations of standards. Backed ... see all copies from $9.29! new only from $9.29!
9	The Modern Jazz Quartet [1951] (1951) more music like this by The Modern Jazz Quartet This double LP (whose contents have been reissued as part of three CDs) has all of the Modern Jazz Quartet's earliest recordings. In addition to vibraphonist Milt Jackson, pianist John Lewis and bassist Percy Heath, the group's original drummer Kenny Clarke is on 12 selections while his replacement Connie Kay is on the remaining six songs. This ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
10	Uptown (1990) more music like this by Andre Previn with Mundell Lowe and Ray Brown This was André Previn's second album after his long, symphonically enforced absence from jazz, and it sounds noticeably more fluid and relaxed than his first. No longer apprehensive about dusting off his old skills, Previn is delightfully confident and breezy (dig his sly turns on "Come Rain or Come Shine" and "C Jam Blues"), taking some chances ... see all copies from $2.18! new only from $10.29!
11 view cover	Give Him the Ooh-La-La (1958) more music like this by Blossom Dearie Of the six recordings Blossom Dearie did for the Verve label in the '50s, Give Him the Ooh-La-La is the third one to be released on CD. Three titles still remain in the vaults including a Betty Comden and Johnny Green tribute as well as a Broadway Hits collection. It's a shame because Dearie's girlishly dynamic voice, subtle piano playing, and ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
12 view cover	One Hour Mama (1996) more music like this by Lavay Smith & Her Red Hot Skillet Lickers The current swing revival, a very healthy development that has given younger dancers an opportunity to jitterbug to four/four music has, ironically, resulted in quite a bit of erratic music. Some of the so-called swing bands are really just playing rockabilly, '50s pop, or mere imitations of Louis Prima and Cab Calloway mixed in with R&B from ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $17.23!
13 view cover	Come Rain or Come Shine: The Harold Arlen Songbook (1996) more music like this by Sylvia McNair/Andre Previn see all copies from $7.05! new only from $14.97!
14 view cover	Last Swing of the Century (1999) more music like this by Ken Peplowski For Last Swing of the Century, Ken Peplowski assembles an all-star big band featuring trumpeters Conte Candoli and Randy Sandke, among many others, to pay tribute to his former employer Benny Goodman. Peplowski sticks to clarinet throughout the set, swinging hard and offering a fitting salute to his mentor. Steve Huey, All Music Guide see all copies from $4.59! new only from $10.71!
15 view cover	New York Jazz (1956) more music like this by Sonny Stitt Sonny Stitt was so closely identified with Charlie Parker on the alto that even when he played tenor, his style was of the quicker-than-lightning variety with all the notes he could pack in a phrase in his soloing. Which makes listening to him, for all but the most ardent bebop fans, an endurance contest no matter how agile he was. Here, in a 1956 ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
16 view cover	Sea Changes (1996) more music like this by Tommy Flanagan It's easy to understand why Tommy Flanagan has been one of the most praised pianists over the '80s and '90s while listening to an excellent trio date such as this CD. With bassist Peter Washington and drummer Lewis Nash, he features a number of songs with oceanic themes, including a tantalizing "How Deep Is the Ocean?," "I Cover the Waterfront," ... see all copies from $14.50! new only from $14.50!
17 view cover	Personal Appearance (1957) more music like this by Sonny Stitt While the comparisons to Charlie Parker were inevitable throughout a good part of his career, Sonny Stitt was very much his own man. He is in top form throughout this 1957 session made for Verve, featuring a very young Bobby Timmons on piano, bassist Edgar Willis, and drummer Kenny Dennis. Alternating between alto and tenor saxophone in a program ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
18 view cover	Time on My Hands (2002) more music like this by Lee Wiley One of the few single-disc compilations that ably covers her career from the early '30s to the early '50s, Time on My Hands is a knowledgeably selected disc, making it an easy first purchase for anyone investigating the magical Lee Wiley for the first time. From her earliest features with the orchestra of Leo Reisman to the peak of her elegance on ... see all copies from $11.04! new only from $11.30!
19 view cover	Good Pickin's (1959) more music like this by Howard Roberts Issued in 1959, Howard Roberts' Good Pickin's was his second album for Verve as a leader. It is as straight-up a blowing date as you're likely to find, though it has wonderful harmonic invention thanks to the two arrangers on the date -- Bill Holman, who also plays tenor, and Marty Paich. The rest of the date is rounded out by pianist Pete Jolly, ... see all copies from $10.80! new only from $10.80!
20 view cover	Poet of the Piano (2001) more music like this by Carmen Cavallaro Carmen Cavallero was the grand master of popular piano during the 1940s and '50s. Living Era's Poet of the Piano borrows its title from an old Decca double LP that contained the same number of tracks and some of the same selections. More passionate than his idol Eddy Duchin, Cavallero was a skilled interpreter of romantic jazz/pop standards like ... see all copies from $9.23! new only from $11.17!
21 view cover	The Diva Series (2003) more music like this by Blossom Dearie Blossom Dearie's time spent with Verve during the late '50s resulted in several albums of great music, and her entry in the label's 2003 The Diva Series is one of the better single-disc wrap-ups of her career. This one is much longer than Verve's previous attempts; it also does a good job of compiling most of her best moments, including "I'm Hip," ... see all copies from $7.39! new only from $7.39!
22 view cover	Oscar Peterson Plays the Harold Arlen Songbook (1959) more music like this by Oscar Peterson see all copies from $13.91! new only from $13.91!
23 view cover	Sextet (1950) more music like this by Benny Goodman In 1950, Benny Goodman formed a new sextet, and although he used a big band for some recordings, the small group was his main outlet for the next couple of years. This CD features this somewhat forgotten unit, a hot swing combo featuring vibraphonist Terry Gibbs and usually pianist Teddy Wilson. Rather than repeat his older hits, the clarinetist ... see all copies from $43.64!
24 view cover	Prelude to a Kiss (1957) more music like this by Mel Tormé Originally issued in 1958, Prelude to a Kiss was a concept album built around a brief fling between our hero Mel Tormé and a woman whose voice is heard in short dialogue segments preceding each song. The songs follow the theme of each conversation and gradually build on that theme, from the innocent affection and naiveté of "I'm Getting ... see all copies from $10.32! new only from $10.32!
25 view cover	Complete Capitol Collection (2006) more music like this by Dick Haymes In 1955, Capitol Records signed Dick Haymes and attempted to do for him what it had done for Frank Sinatra a few years earlier, resurrect his career. Due to a combination of personal and business problems, Haymes had fallen far from his mid-'40s peak, when he was a major rival to Sinatra among the new crop of solo singers emerging from the big ... see all copies from $20.59! new only from $20.59!
