1	Sings Standards (2002) more music like this by Cassandra Wilson Cassandra Wilson is ostensibly a jazz singer, but more often than not crosses the creative line between folk, pop, and jazz. This collection of previously released tracks features Wilson on various jazz standards giving one a nice view of Wilson as simply a jazz vocalist. While this is in no way a "must have" for fans of the much lauded singer, it ... see all copies from $6.58! new only from $10.29!
2	Vince Guaraldi Trio (1956) more music like this by Vince Guaraldi Trio This CD reissue under the OJC imprint brings back the first full session led by pianist Vince Guaraldi. Teamed up with the fine guitarist Eddie Duran and bassist Dean Reilly, Guaraldi swings lightly and with subtle creativity on two group originals and eight standards, including "Django," "Chelsea Bridge," "Fascinating Rhythm," and "The Lady's in ... see all copies from $7.20! new only from $10.44!
3	Music for Loving (1995) more music like this by Ben Webster with Strings Combining two string albums by Ben Webster and one from Ellington sideman Harry Carney, the two-disc Music With Feeling delivers over two hours' worth of incredible ballad interpretations. Webster, of course, made his name with many an after-hours gem, and he predictably shines here amidst the lush yet tasteful orchestral charts penned by Ralph ... see all copies from $17.99! new only from $20.94!
4	Nocturnes & Serenades (2006) more music like this by Scott Hamilton The black-and-white cover photo of a neon-lit street harks back to an earlier era on Scott Hamilton's Nocturnes & Serenades. Depending on the viewer, it may conjure up images of the jazz clubs lining the street in 1940s New York, or perhaps classic film noir. Either way, the photo and title promise the kind of lazy, romantic jazz that pours from ... see all copies from $8.34! new only from $16.81!
5	Time Being (1971) more music like this by Buddy Rich This 1987 sampler CD has some of the best selections recorded by the Buddy Rich big band for the LPs A Different Drummer, Rich In London and Stick It. The selection of tunes was well done, although the complete Rich In London (not yet out on CD) is also well worth getting. Among the key soloists are Pat LaBarbera on tenor and soprano, trombonist ... see all copies from $5.54! new only from $11.06!
6	I Remember Duke, Hoagy & Strayhorn (1994) more music like this by Ahmad Jamal Ahmad Jamal, in paying tribute to Duke Ellington, Billy Strayhorn, and Hoagy Carmichael, performs nearly every selection on this CD at a very slow tempo. Or at least his sidemen do, since the pianist often plays double-time lines, witty quotes from other songs, and occasional violent outbursts. In general, the music is quite thoughtful and subtle, ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
7	Uniquely Mancini (1963) more music like this by Henry Mancini see all copies from $8.00!
8	The Very Best of Duke Ellington (2000) more music like this by Duke Ellington see all copies from $8.75! new only from $8.75!
9	Tribute to Ellington (1999) more music like this by Daniel Barenboim Issued in time to tack on to the end of the celebration of the Ellington centenary, Daniel Barenboim's Tribute to Ellington is neither the best of the albums to be issued in honor of Ellington's 100th birthday, nor is it an expensive disaster. Employing some of the most talented genre-straddling musicians available, including clarinetist Don Byron ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $3.00!
10	Seasons of a Life (2006) more music like this by Lena Horne Lena Horne had effectively retired in 2006 when Blue Note released Seasons of a Life, an album compiled for her by her musical director, Rodney Jones, and including unreleased performances recorded between 1994 and 2000. It's an effective capstone to her career, and shows that even at the age of 80, the former Cotton Club featured attraction had ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $15.37!
11 view cover	Whisper Not (2000) more music like this by Keith Jarrett/Gary Peacock/Jack DeJohnette For Keith Jarrett, this extremely satisfying concert with the Standards Trio on two CDs is a personal landmark, the first for-the-record sign that he had recovered from the chronic fatigue syndrome that laid him low for three years in the late 1990s. Indeed, by the time this Paris gig took place, he had come all the way back -- his technical ... see all copies from $20.82! new only from $31.78!
12 view cover	Gerry Mulligan Meets Ben Webster (1959) more music like this by Gerry Mulligan The swing and bop start right here on this legendary 1959 session between baritone saxophonist Gerry Mulligan and tenor man Ben Webster. The opening track, Billy Strayhorn's "Chelsea Bridge," is lush and emotional and truly sets the tone for this album. With Jimmy Rowles on piano (his intro on "Sunday" sounds like a ragtimer like Willie "The Lion" ... see all copies from $6.96! new only from $10.29!
13 view cover	She Who Weeps (1990) more music like this by Cassandra Wilson She Who Weeps is a transition set of sorts for Cassandra Wilson. Having had good notices for her Blue Skies album (which found her interpreting standards in a style similar to Betty Carter), Wilson performs "Chelsea Bridge" and "Body and Soul." Most of the other selections still use the free funk rhythms that were a carryover from the singer's ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $15.52!
14 view cover	The Milestone Years (1967) more music like this by Joe Henderson Tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson's most famous recordings are his early Blue Notes and his more recent Verves, but in between he recorded exclusively for Milestone and, although Henderson was in consistently fine form in the diverse settings, he was somewhat neglected during his middle years. This massive eight-CD set contains all of the music from ... see all copies from $54.57! new only from $54.57!
15 view cover	Never No Lament: The Blanton-Webster Band (2003) more music like this by Duke Ellington Never No Lament: The Blanton-Webster Band, covering the years 1939-1942 in the great composer and bandleader's career, is essentially the third time that RCA has issued this material on CD. The first was a botched job, appalling even, with its flattened-out, compressed sound, along with a chopped version of "Take the A-Train" and other sonic and ... see all copies from $35.59! new only from $35.59!
16 view cover	A Proper Introduction to Billy Strayhorn: Passion Flower (2004) more music like this by Billy Strayhorn see all copies from $9.09! new only from $9.09!
17 view cover	Bennett Sings Ellington: Hot & Cool (1999) more music like this by Tony Bennett Tony Bennett's practically inevitable commemoration of the Duke Ellington centenary is an appropriately blue-chip affair, with a big band and orchestra augmenting the Ralph Sharon Quartet on arrangements by Jorge Calandrelli, who has slowed the tempos to give the singer time to give intimate interpretations to the lyrics of songs like "Mood Indigo ... see all copies from $2.30! new only from $9.93!
18 view cover	1969: All-Star White House Tribute (2002) more music like this by Duke Ellington One of the undeniable highlights of President Richard Nixon's administration was the 1969 White House gala celebrating Duke Ellington's 70th birthday, though jazz fans waited 33 years for their release. The all-star band includes trumpeters Clark Terry and Bill Berry, alto saxophonist Paul Desmond, baritone saxophonist Gerry Mulligan, guitarist ... see all copies from $6.20! new only from $15.81!
19 view cover	Whatever Bubbles Up (2003) more music like this by Bob Florence Limited Edition Long one of the top arrangers in jazz, Bob Florence contributed seven inventive charts to five of his originals and two standards on this swinging, yet often complex, set and also takes "Never Let Me Go" as a sensitive piano solo. "Dukeisms," a lengthy piece commissioned to celebrate Duke Ellington's 100th birthday in 1999, has quotes from five ... see all copies from $15.69! new only from $15.69!
20 view cover	Burnished Brass/Satin Brass (2002) more music like this by George Shearing Brass jazz legend George Shearing had two of his full-length LP releases (1958 and 1960, respectively) released here on one CD in 2002 by EMI. Chris True, All Music Guide see all copies from $18.49! new only from $21.16!
21 view cover	Ellington Is Forever, Vol. 1 (1975) more music like this by Kenny Burrell For fans of jazz, it is deeply, satisfyingly appropriate that Kenny Burrell should be the one to organize this splendid homage to Duke Ellington. It is a well-known fact that Burrell was the Duke's favorite guitarist, and legend has it that on one occasion when Burrell couldn't make a date, Ellington chose to cut the guitar part from the score ... see all copies from $17.18! new only from $17.18!
22 view cover	Sophisticated Lady [RCA] (1940) more music like this by Duke Ellington This RCA CD reissue contains 19 Duke Ellington recordings from 1940-42 and 1945-46 and serves as a good introduction to Ellington's music of that era although veteran collectors will already have the material. Among the gems are the original version of "Take the 'A' Train," "I Got It Bad," "Perdido," "Caravan," a rendition of "It Don't Mean a ... see all copies from $5.25! new only from $5.25!
23 view cover	Wayfaring Webster (2000) more music like this by Ben Webster Quartet If you were to look through the jazz libraries of major radio stations in Europe, you would find a lot of high-quality live performances that have never been released commercially. But thankfully, some of those recordings eventually end up coming out on small European jazz labels. A perfect example is Wayfaring Webster, which boasts a Ben Webster ... see all copies from $15.27! new only from $18.07!
24 view cover	The Blanton-Webster Band (1939) more music like this by Duke Ellington This attractive three-CD set contains the master takes of all 66 selections recorded by Duke Ellington's Orchestra during what many historians consider its peak period. Left out are the many alternate takes, last released by European labels, and the Duke Ellington-Jimmy Blanton duets, which are available on a different CD. Included are dozens of ... see all copies from $29.00! new only from $286.66!
25 view cover	After the Morning (1979) more music like this by John Hicks This first album is a real keeper. Great piano playing throughout. Michael G. Nastos, All Music Guide see all copies from $28.10! new only from $54.30!
