1	Time Out (1959) more music like this by The Dave Brubeck Quartet Dave Brubeck's defining masterpiece, Time Out is one of the most rhythmically innovative albums in jazz history, the first to consciously explore time signatures outside of the standard 4/4 beat or 3/4 waltz time. It was a risky move -- Brubeck's record company wasn't keen on releasing such an arty project, and many critics initially roasted him ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.06!
2	Breakin' Away (1981) more music like this by Al Jarreau Released in 1981, Breakin' Away is not only a great follow-up to This Time, it all but perfected the effort. With an amazing batch of songs, producer/artist chemistry, and top-level players, Breakin' Away became the standard bearer of the L.A. pop and R&B sound. "Closer to Your Love" comes off as a tougher, more confident version of the songs from ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.11!
3	Dave Brubeck's Greatest Hits (1966) more music like this by Dave Brubeck While greatest-hits albums from jazz artists are sometimes dubious propositions, Dave Brubeck is the rare exception to the rule. Brubeck concentrated on the song as much as the performance, which is one of the reasons why he appealed to such a wide audience and it's also the reason why Greatest Hits is such an entertaining and effective sampler. ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $11.06!
4	The Dave Brubeck Quartet at Carnegie Hall (1963) more music like this by Dave Brubeck For all those who have a big axe to grind with Brubeck, for all those who claim the band was only successful because they were predominantly white, or played pop-jazz, or catered to the exotica craze, or any of that, you are invited to have all of your preconceptions, tepid arguments, and false impressions hopelessly torn to shreds by the CD debut ... see all copies from $16.90! new only from $22.14!
5	New Wine (1987) more music like this by Dave Brubeck The Quartet (which for the past five years had included clarinetist Bill Smith, electric bassist Chris Brubeck and drummer Randy Jones in addition to the pianist/leader) teamed up with the Montreal International Jazz Festival Orchestra for this live recording. Featured are six Brubeck compositions (including "Blue Rondo à la Turk" and "Koto Song") ... see all copies from $1.99!
6	The Essential Dave Brubeck (2003) more music like this by Dave Brubeck It's hard to summarize the highlights of a career as long and prolific as Dave Brubeck's in a two-CD compilation. If you're going to settle for that, however, The Essential Dave Brubeck is a good job, spanning 1949 to 2002, with 76 minutes of music on each disc. Although a few of these tracks were drawn from his early Fantasy recordings and his ... see all copies from $22.14! new only from $22.14!
7	For All Time (2004) more music like this by Dave Brubeck This five-CD box set collects all five of the Dave Brubeck Quartet's Time series recordings: Time Out, Time Further Out, Countdown: Time in Outer Space, Time Changes, and Time In, with bonus material attached to three of the discs. Of this quintet of recordings, the latter three have never been available on CD in the United States. Recorded ... see all copies from $38.21! new only from $38.21!
8	Swing Time! (1995) more music like this by The Canadian Brass This is an odd if mostly intriguing set by the Canadian Brass, which is comprised of two trumpets, trombone, French horn, and tuba. On most of the selections, they are joined by a full band that includes keyboardist Warren Bernhardt, guitarist Gene Bertoncini, up to 11 additional horns (arranged by Don Sebesky), and even occasionally six-strings. ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.30!
9	The Great Concerts: Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Carnegie Hall (1988) more music like this by Dave Brubeck Quartet see all copies from $11.06! new only from $11.06!
10	Ken Burns Jazz (2000) more music like this by Dave Brubeck In conjunction with the release of Ken Burns' ten-part, 19-hour epic PBS documentary Jazz, Columbia issued 22 single-disc compilations devoted to jazz's most significant artists, as well as a five-disc historical summary. Since the individual compilations attempt to present balanced overviews of each artist's career, tracks from multiple labels ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.68!

12 view cover	Art of the Groove (2000) more music like this by Turtle Island String Quartet Although their inclination to improvise and their occasional tendency to cover jazz standards seemed to mark them as a jazz outfit, the Turtle Island String Quartet usually got classified as a new age group, if only because they recorded for Windham Hill and, after all, they were a string quartet. As of the self-released Art of the Groove, however ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $15.65!
13 view cover	The Jazz Classical Union (1982) more music like this by Free Flight Free Flight's second recording is a true classic. Flexible classical flutist Jim Walker and pianist Milcho Leviev proved that they could play practically any style perfectly, and their long and complex unisons are flawless. The quartet (which also includes bassist Jim Lacefield and drummer Ralph Humphrey) lives up to the name of the album, turning ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $8.98!
14 view cover	Greene Fiddler (1995) more music like this by Richard Greene see all copies from $2.99! new only from $9.39!
15 view cover	Time Again: Brubeck Revisited, Vol. 1 (2004) more music like this by Joe Gilman Trio It isn't every day that an artist devotes almost an entire release to the music of Dave Brubeck, but pianist Joe Gilman did well enough with this studio outing that he delighted Brubeck himself with this recording, the first in what is hopefully a long series. He is joined by two fine young musicians attending the Brubeck Institute at the ... see all copies from $5.07! new only from $15.30!
16 view cover	Bach to Brubeck: Bass Trombone Concerto/Blues Suite for Banjo & Orchestra (2000) more music like this by Chris Brubeck/Bill Crofut/Joel Brown/London Symphony Orchestra/Joel R Although Chris Brubeck, Bill Crofut, and Joel Brown made many fine recordings together prior to Crofut's death in early 1999, this CD is unique. It features baroque masterpieces by Bach, some of Dave Brubeck's (Chris' father, of course) most popular works, and a few other surprises. All but one piece is exquisitely orchestrated by Chris Brubeck, ... see all copies from $8.14! new only from $15.65!
17 view cover	I Like Jazz: The Essence of Dave Brubeck (1991) more music like this by Dave Brubeck see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.11!
18 view cover	The Jazz Masters: 27 Classic Performances (1990) more music like this by Various Artists The Jazz Masters: 27 Classic Performances gathers a wide array of jazz talents, including Erroll Garner, Woody Herman, Billie Holiday, and Harry "Sweets" Edison. Count Basie's "Taxi War Dance," Stan Getz's "Misty," Holiday's "I Get Along with You Very Well," and Miles Davis' "Pan Piper" are some of the highlights of this jazz primer, which also ... see all copies from $2.47!
19 view cover	Unsquare Dance (1991) more music like this by Bill Crofut The trio of banjo player Bill Crofut, electric bassist and bass trombonist Chris Brubeck, and guitarist Joel Brown combined elements of folk, jazz, rock, and a few other genres in a blend that was continuously pleasing during its existence in the 1990s. All three musicians are first-rate players and pleasing singers. The jazz highlights include ... see all copies from $9.18! new only from $18.07!
20 view cover	Flute: Contemporary Virtuosos (1998) more music like this by Various Artists This Delta compilation of contemporary flutists includes seven different artists and a total of 11 tracks. The set features two tracks each by Steve Kujala, Jill Allen, Jim Walker and Lisa LaCross, plus single selections from Dave Sletten, Dennis DeBlasio and Dennis Mary.

21 view cover	Blue Rondo (1986) more music like this by Dave Brubeck Quartet The 1987 edition of the Brubeck Quartet featured pianist Brubeck, his son Chris on electric bass and bass trombone, clarinetist Bill Smith and drummer Randy Jones. In addition to remakes of "Blue Rondo à la Turk," "Strange Meadowlark" and "Swing Bells," the leader contributed six new originals including "I See, Satie" and a tribute to Dizzy ... see all copies from $8.99! new only from $13.03!
22 view cover	Malayan Breeze (1990) more music like this by The Dolphins The Dolphins, a quartet that includes Dave Brubeck's son Dan on drums, primarily performs electronic originals that groove nicely but are more effective as background music than as stimulating jazz. The musicianship of the group (which also includes guitarist Mike DeMicco, Vinnie Martucci on synthesizer and bassist Rob Leon) is excellent and the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.00!
23 view cover	Time Signatures: A Career Retrospective (1946) more music like this by Dave Brubeck This four-CD boxed set does a near-perfect job of summing up Dave Brubeck's extensive recorded legacy. Drawing its recordings from not only Columbia but Fantasy, Atlantic and Music Masters, the attractive package also includes an extensive booklet written by Doug Ramsey that can serve as a mini-biography. The focus is naturally on the Brubeck ... see all copies from $16.63! new only from $20.19!
24 view cover	The Black Box of Jazz [Millenia] (2000) more music like this by Various Artists An excellent four-CD compilation of top-flight performances by members of the upper tier of the jazz world. This collection is a mixture of studio and live performances focusing on musicians from bop and post-bop era, although there's a healthy presentation of swing and pre-bop musicians. Moreover, many of these tracks had not been released when ... see all copies from $17.55! new only from $34.59!
25 view cover	The Show That Never Ends (2001) more music like this by Emerson, Lake & Palmer see all copies from $10.14! new only from $15.69!
