1	My Favorite Things (1960) more music like this by John Coltrane Although seemingly impossible to comprehend, this landmark jazz recording was made in less than three days. All the more remarkable is that the same sessions which yielded My Favorite Things would also inform a majority of the albums Coltrane Plays the Blues, Coltrane's Sound, and Coltrane Legacy. It is easy to understand the appeal that these ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.99!
2	Music for Lovers Only/Music to Make You Misty (1999) more music like this by Jackie Gleason A repackaging of Jackie Gleason's two most popular albums, Collectors Choice Music's Music for Lovers Only/Music to Make You Misty is an instrumental easy listening CD with a unabashed romantic mood. 1953's Music for Lovers Only was Gleason's most popular and sold over 500,000 copies. The disc includes instrumental versions of "My Funny Valentine, ... see all copies from $6.24! new only from $14.52!
3	For Sentimental Reasons (1986) more music like this by Linda Ronstadt For Sentimental Reasons was the last traditional pop album Linda Ronstadt recorded with Nelson Riddle, and it's virtually indistinguishable from its two predecessors -- it has the same sweeping arrangements, and her voice remains adequate, not spectacular. That said, For Sentimental Reasons is notable since it contains a high percentage of ... see all copies from $4.44! new only from $15.51!
4	The Best of Chet Baker Sings (1953) more music like this by Chet Baker To much of the pop (as opposed to the jazz) audience, Chet Baker was known not as an able cool jazz trumpeter, but as a romantic balladeer. The two classifications were not mutually exclusive; Baker's vocal numbers would also feature his trumpet playing, as well as fine instrumental support from West Coast cool jazzers. For those who prefer the ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $8.25!
5	Ahmad Jamal at the Pershing: But Not for Me (1958) more music like this by Ahmad Jamal Recorded at the Pershing Club in Chicago, IL, Jamal's third album (including the hit "Poinciana") was the turning point in his career. His liberal use of silence influenced many jazz musicians, including Miles Davis. Michael Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $6.00!
6	Round Midnight with Nelson Riddle and his Orchestra (1986) more music like this by Linda Ronstadt w/ Nelson Riddle & His Orchestra see all copies from $14.37! new only from $24.70!
7	Red Garland's Piano (1956) more music like this by Red Garland Red Garland's third session as a leader finds the distinctive pianist investigating eight standards (including "Please Send Me Someone to Love," "Stompin' at the Savoy," "If I Were a Bell," and "Almost Like Being in Love") with his distinctive chord voicings, melodic but creative ideas, and solid sense of swing. Joined by bassist Paul Chambers and ... see all copies from $4.49! new only from $8.65!
8	When Harry Met Sally (1989) more music like this by Harry Connick Jr. Harry Connick, Jr.'s vocals perfectly fit the moods throughout the 1989 Billy Crystal film When Harry Met Sally. This soundtrack album (which stands apart from the movie) was a big hit and a major step forward for the young pianist-vocalist, although it appears to have been the high point of his career. Connick warmly sings such numbers as "It Had ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.16!
9	The Romantic Moods of Jackie Gleason (1996) more music like this by Jackie Gleason This is a fine compilation of Jackie Gleason's output for Columbia. Gleason's objective was to make "musical wallpaper" that should never be intrusive, but rather conducive. He was not musically literate, but never had a problem articulating what he wanted to hear from his orchestra. The music here is quiet, melancholy, and often somber, played at ... see all copies from $15.00! new only from $20.53!
10	Stardust: The Great American Songbook, Vol. 3 (2004) more music like this by Rod Stewart see all copies from $3.83! new only from $5.88!
11	Embraceable You (2004) more music like this by Beegie Adair see all copies from $10.37! new only from $10.37!
12 view cover	Prince of Cool (2004) more music like this by Chet Baker Prince of Cool collects most of the sides the young trumpeter/vocalist Chet Baker recorded for the fledgling Pacific Jazz label from 1952 to 1957. These are the recordings that defined Baker's career and largely created the aura of Baker the jazz idol. On these three discs -- separated into "Chet Sings," "Chet Plays," and "Chet & Friends" -- we ... see all copies from $30.35! new only from $30.35!
13	Music for Lovers Only (1953) more music like this by Jackie Gleason Presents Music for Lovers Only was first released in 1952 as a 10" LP with only eight songs. In 1953 it was released as an expanded 12" with eight more tracks. The Collectors Choice's Music for Lovers Only/Music to Make You Misty CD does not include the final eight songs, which are "Little Girl," "I Cover the Waterfront," "Some Day," "If I Had You," "When ... see all copies from $1.99!
14 view cover	Django (1953) more music like this by The Modern Jazz Quartet Hailing from a trio of Modern Jazz Quartet (MJQ) sessions, Django (1955) contains some of the earliest sides that Milt Jackson (vibraphone), John Lewis (piano), Percy Heath (bass) and Kenny Clarke (drums) recorded for Prestige Records. Initially, the combo was part of Dizzy Gillespie's influential backing band and after a change in drummers (to ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $8.02!

16 view cover	Glory of Gershwin (1994) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $2.52! new only from $23.99!
17 view cover	The Man Who Invented Soul [Box Set] (2000) more music like this by Sam Cooke This set is near essential to fans of Sam Cooke, despite the fact that it contains none of his gospel recordings for Specialty Records or any of the work from the final year of his career (owned by ABKCO Records). Scattered every few minutes across this four-disc collection are reminders of just how far ahead of all existing musical forms Cooke ... see all copies from $41.15! new only from $41.15!
18 view cover	Digital Works (1985) more music like this by Ahmad Jamal Ahmad Jamal was never as distinctive on electric piano as he was on the acoustic counterpart, making this two-LP set, Digital Works, (which finds him doubling) a slight disappointment. Jamal does play well throughout, engaging his sidemen (bassist Larry Ball, drummer Herlin Riley, and percussionist Iraj Lashkaryl) in close interplay, but no new ... see all copies from $3.95! new only from $9.65!
19 view cover	Gershwin Live! (1982) more music like this by Sarah Vaughan and the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra Sassy and conductor Michael Tilson Thomas had been cooking up Gershwin evenings for eight years prior to this live performance with the Los Angeles Philharmonic in the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, so singer and conductor had this act together for a long time. Judging from Leslie Gourse's biography Sassy, Tilson Thomas apparently worshiped Vaughan ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.60!
20 view cover	Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Not surprisingly, we have a cornucopia of love songs here, the best of them perhaps being Elton John doing Gershwin on "But Not For Me." (The older rockers get, the more they want to do pop standards.) John also is heard on his own "Crocodile Rock" and "Chapel Of Love," and when he's not singing, we are getting remakes of "La La La (Means I Love ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.00!
21 view cover	Crazy for You [Original Broadway Cast] (1992) more music like this by Original Broadway Cast Recording see all copies from $4.90! new only from $9.47!
22 view cover	Best of Judy Garland: 20th Century Masters (1999) more music like this by Judy Garland Like any record company worth their salt, MCA knows a good gimmick when they see it, and when the millennium came around...well, the 20th Century Masters -- The Millennium Collection wasn't too far behind. Supposedly, the millennium is a momentous occasion, but it's hard to feel that way when it's used as another excuse to turn out a budget-line ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $6.85!
23 view cover	After Hours (1996) more music like this by John Pizzarelli see all copies from $3.04! new only from $10.11!
24 view cover	Before Me (2006) more music like this by Gladys Knight At a time when most of her contemporaries are satisfied reliving their glory years to appreciative audiences in casinos and theaters, Gladys Knight continues her refusal to be pigeonholed as a soul singer. With 2000's At Last, she returned to the mainstream R&B circuit with a session of adult contemporary R&B that was equally accessible and ... see all copies from $2.65! new only from $2.65!
