1	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!
2	Ken Burns Jazz (2000) more music like this by Louis Armstrong 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 $6.34! new only from $6.34!
3	Vol. 2, 1946-1947 (2000) more music like this by Lu Watters & Yerba Buena Jazz Band see all copies from $16.37! new only from $18.07!
4	Louis Armstrong and King Oliver (1923) more music like this by Louis Armstrong and King Oliver Louis Armstrong's tenure as second cornettist to the great King Oliver is one of jazz history's legendary apprenticeships, on a par with the one Miles Davis served with Charlie Parker or Stephane Grappelli's with Django Rheinhardt. Sadly, only a handful of recordings survive from this formative period in Armstrong's career; happily, all of them ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $17.62!
5	16 Most Requested Songs (1977) more music like this by Teresa Brewer 16 Most Requested Songs is a midline-priced collection that spotlights many of Teresa Brewer's best-known and most popular performances for Columbia Records, including "Ol' Man Moses," "Delta Dawn," "Hurry On Down," "Cotton Fields," "Danny's Song," "Come On and Drive Me Home" and "School Days." Although it's far from a perfect retrospective of her ... see all copies from $18.00! new only from $26.00!
6	Oh by Jingo (1964) more music like this by Clancy Hayes & the Salty Dogs Clancy Hayes, a fine banjoist who originally came to fame with Lu Watters' Yerba Buena Jazz Band in the 1940s, was a rarity. Unlike most Dixieland-oriented musicians who choose to sing, Hayes' likable voice was quite strong; he always swung and his winning personality made his singing a high point whenever he appeared. He recorded frequently with ... see all copies from $18.00!
7	Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1923) more music like this by Louis Armstrong This four-CD set does its best to summarize Louis Armstrong's career during 1923-1934, reissuing 81 of his finest recordings. The problem is that virtually all of the innovative trumpeter/vocalist's records from the era (particularly 1923-1931) are essential, and collectors will want to work on acquiring more complete series, so this box is most ... see all copies from $54.81! new only from $54.81!
8	The Sidney Bechet Story [Proper] (2001) more music like this by Sidney Bechet see all copies from $23.63! new only from $23.63!
9	Spreadin' Joy: 1940-50 (2001) more music like this by Sidney Bechet Here is a peripatetic grab bag of this and that from a span of exactly a decade, an unevenly fruitful period for Bechet that culminated in his becoming a national hero of sorts in France. Taking advantage of expired copyrights, Naxos draws from a variety of labels, sampling from some 1940 sessions from HRS, his brief swinging renaissance at Victor ... see all copies from $15.00!
10	On the Air (1946) more music like this by Lu Watters and the Yerba Buena Jazz Band The music on this CD was originally part of two different LP's put out by the Fairmont label: the complete Live From The Dawn Club and Lu Watters' half of an album split with Louis Armstrong called Louie and Lu. Featuring Lu Watters' Yerba Buena Jazz Band at the peak of its powers, these radio airchecks are well recorded for the period and contain ... see all copies from $4.00! new only from $11.99!
11 view cover	1949, Vol. 1 (2001) more music like this by Sidney Bechet For some reason, many jazz historians seem to consider Sidney Bechet's collaborations with Wild Bill Davison as somehow flawed. Apparently, they expect the feisty, cornet-toting rascal to lie down and allow Sidney to walk all over him. If Bill were so compliant and non-assertive, he never would have earned his moniker. Sure, the two horns jostle ... see all copies from $14.50!
12 view cover	Preservation Jazz (2001) more music like this by Various Artists This sampler has 15 selections taken from the 1918-1926 period, mixing together some obscurities with well-known jazz performances. One problem is that exact dates (beyond the year) and personnel are not listed, making this of lesser interest to collectors despite the inclusion of a few rarities. The programming is also a bit random, although ... see all copies from $6.99!
13 view cover	Nobody Knows You When Your Down & Out (2000) more music like this by Bessie Smith see all copies from $17.15! new only from $17.15!
14	Giants of Jazz: Louis Armstrong more music like this by Louis Armstrong see all copies from $25.00!
15 view cover	Complete Louis Armstrong, Vol. 2: Sugar Foot Stomp 1924-1925 (2007) more music like this by Louis Armstrong Sugar Foot Stomp spotlights Louis Armstrong's recordings from 1924 and 1925. These 68 tracks include the standards "Everybody Loves My Baby," "Alabamy Bound," "Careless Love Blues" and "I'll See You in My Dreams." While the Fremeaux & Associates releases are recommended to casual fans, as a first purchase The Best of Louis Armstrong: The Hot Five ... see all copies from $24.24! new only from $24.24!
16 view cover	Essence Of ... (2000) more music like this by Louis Armstrong see all copies from $14.09! new only from $14.09!
17 view cover	1923-1925 (2000) more music like this by Sidney Bechet 1923-1925 presents Sidney Bechet at his earliest, and these are historically important recordings made by one of the giants of jazz. Even on his earliest tracks such as "Wild Cat Blues" and "Blind Man Blues," Bechet's style is already mature and distinctive, and these sessions laid the bedrock for the artist's performing career for the decades ... see all copies from $19.19! new only from $19.19!
18 view cover	Clarence Williams, Vol. 2: 1923-1925 (2001) more music like this by Clarence Williams see all copies from $11.71! new only from $11.71!
19 view cover	Art Hodes Trio (1995) more music like this by Art Hodes see all copies from $11.57! new only from $11.57!
20 view cover	Complete Recorded Works, Vol. 3 (1924-27) (1924) more music like this by Alberta Hunter see all copies from $18.07! new only from $18.07!
21 view cover	Hot Jazz on Blue Note (1996) more music like this by Various Artists Hot Jazz on Blue Note is a four-disc, 72-song box set that boasts a cross-section of classic traditional jazz and jump blues from the Blue Note vaults. All of the material on the set is from the '40s, when the label was just beginning to establish themselves as a force in jazz. Among the leaders on the set include George Lewis, Sidney Bechet, ... see all copies from $188.55! new only from $188.55!
22 view cover	Runnin' Wild (1998) more music like this by Sidney Bechet After Blue Note switched to bop in 1947, it was the end of trad jazz on the label, with the exception of a few sessions led by Sidney Bechet and George Lewis. The masterful soprano saxophonist Bechet led no less than nine dates for Blue Note, as well as appearing as a sideman on four others, all of which were included in Mosaic's now out-of-print ... see all copies from $17.79! new only from $17.79!
23 view cover	Baby, Won't You Please Come Home? (2001) more music like this by Clarence Williams Afro-Creole-Choctaw-American pianist, vocalist, washboard percussionist, comedian, composer, producer, music publisher, accompanist, and bandleader Clarence Williams played a crucial role in the development of jazz and blues in New York City during the 1920s. Often using one-shot pseudonyms for his bands and combining players from New Orleans, St. ... see all copies from $10.66! new only from $10.66!
24 view cover	Remembering Louis (2002) more music like this by Marty Grosz/Ken Peplowski/Jon-Erik Kells/Vince Giordano Although 14 of the 16 songs on this set were recorded by Louis Armstrong (he never got around to "How Am I to Know," which he did perform in 1930, while "In the Land of Beginning Again" was the closing theme song of Fate Marable's band when Armstrong was a sideman), there is no attempt to re-create Satch's solos or try vocalizing like him. Instead ... see all copies from $24.15! new only from $24.15!
25 view cover	Mosaic Select: Sidney Bechet (2006) more music like this by Sidney Bechet Sidney Bechet, the first great jazz horn soloist to be featured on records, was a remarkable soprano saxophonist and clarinetist. He dominated ensembles, often taking over the role of a trumpet or cornet, and was such a dazzling soloist that he ended up being the favorite musician of both Duke Ellington and John Coltrane. On this three-CD set, ... see all copies from $50.98! new only from $50.98!
