The Dana Owens Album

The Dana Owens Album (2004) more music like this

by Queen Latifah

The hooks on the rap records indicated it could be possible, the roles in Living Out Loud and Chicago made it possible -- the first record in which Dana Owens, better known as Queen Latifah, does nothing but sing. On The Dana Owens Album, she takes on vocal standards and an unlikely array of blues, pop, and soul classics that were adaptable to ...

Jazz

Jazz (1987) more music like this

by Tony Bennett

What a wonderful idea. This is a compilation album ranging across Tony Bennett's early career, from 1954 to 1967, highlighting some of his more adventurous sessions with jazz musicians, including Count Basie, Herbie Hancock, Herbie Mann, Art Blakey, Stan Getz, and others, and featuring jazz standards like "Green Dolphin Street," along with a ...

In My Life

In My Life (1993) more music like this

by Marian McPartland

Pianist Marian McPartland displays her versatility throughout this reflective and generally thoughtful CD on such selections as the Beatles' "In My Life," John Coltrane's "Red Planet," Ivan Lins' "Velas," and Ornette Coleman's "Ramblin'." Despite the diverse repertoire, McPartland's own flexible style shines through and her individual musical ...

Songs from the Analog Playground

Songs from the Analog Playground (2001) more music like this

by Charlie Hunter Quartet

Charlie Hunter's seventh Blue Note release is the first to feature vocalists -- Theryl De'Clouet, Kurt Elling, Norah Jones, and rapper Mos Def -- who appear in rotating guest spots. Five of the 13 tracks are instrumental originals. Some meander in a typical jam band way, but they're guided by an economical, live-quartet sound and driven by Hunter ...

Like Someone in Love

Like Someone in Love (1957) more music like this

by Ella Fitzgerald

Ella Fitzgerald was accompanied by an orchestra arranged by Frank DeVol for this fine studio session; the CD reissue has been augmented by four selections recorded a month later. Most of the songs are veteran standards, Stan Getz's warm tenor helps out on four tunes, and -- although this is not an essential release -- her voice was so strong and ...

Day by Day/Day by Night

Day by Day/Day by Night (2000) more music like this

by Doris Day

When Doris Day freed herself from those cotton candy films she appeared in, where her singing for the most part was limited to cute novelty tunes, she showed that she could successfully sink her vocal teeth into some solid standard material. The LPs compiled on this CD come from the late '50s, when she was recording for Columbia with backing from ...

Afro-Cuban Fantasy (Cabildo)

Afro-Cuban Fantasy (Cabildo) (1998) more music like this

by Poncho Sanchez

Our resident Latin jazz classicist comes up with a good concept -- evoking the memories of non-Latino Afro-Cuban music pioneers Stan Kenton, Shorty Rogers and Cal Tjader -- and better still, delivers great music unfettered by any hint of routine. The Sanchez octet does so by simply being itself, without trying to imitate its subjects (if anything, ...

Compact Jazz: Arthur Prysock

Compact Jazz: Arthur Prysock (1989) more music like this

by Arthur Prysock

Another in a long line of many budget Verve samplers, Arthur Prysock's Compact Jazz features the velvet baritone on a wide array of tracks from his '60s stay with the label. The emphasis is on Prysock's peak ballad work, with standouts including "When I Fall in Love" and "I Don't Stand a Ghost of a Chance With You." He also picks up the pace a bit ...

Close Your Eyes (1995) more music like this

by Kurt Elling

For his debut recording, Chicago vocalist Elling pushes the envelope, challenging listeners and his musicians with beat poetry, ranting, and his Mark Murphy-ish singing. There's quite a bit of dramatist/actor in Elling, although the romantic in him is also pretty prevalent. Acting much like a tenor saxophonist, Elling can wail and shout, expound ...

The Very Best of Nancy Wilson: The Capitol Recordings 1960-1976 (2007) more music like this

by Nancy Wilson

The career of Nancy Wilson has been compiled many times and in many ways, but never like this. Focusing in-depth on her Capitol recordings during the 15 years of her prime, this three-disc set is a wonderful collection for those who appreciate Wilson's ability to combine Broadway power and finesse with jazz rhythm (and a certain degree of ...

For My Lady (1991) more music like this

by Jean 'Toots' Thielemans with Shirley Horn

The emphasis is on ballads for harmonica player Toots Thielemans' outing with the Shirley Horn Trio. Horn, in addition to contributing some tastefully supportive piano and occasional solos, takes a vocal on "Someone to Watch Over Me." Toots sounds quite relaxed performing 11 standards (only "Blues in the Closet" generates much heat) plus his ...

East! (1968) more music like this

by Pat Martino

Despite the title and the cover of this CD reissue (which makes it appear that the performances are greatly influenced by music of the Far East), the style played by guitarist Pat Martino's quartet is very much in the hard bop tradition. Martino was already developing his own sound and is in excellent form with pianist Eddie Green, drummer Lenny ...

Close Your Eyes (1997) more music like this

by Stacey Kent

Stacey Kent has a very appealing voice, and her delivery is full of joy, enthusiasm, and subtle creativity. Sticking mostly to veteran standards on this CD (only "Sleep Warm" was written after the 1950s), Kent sounds delightful while joined by a fine mainstream quintet. Jim Tomlinson contributes some tenor solos reminiscent in tone of Stan Getz, ...

Collection: 1947-1972 (1998) more music like this

by Johnny Hartman

Just where Johnny Hartman's name ends up in the pantheon of great jazzy pop singers is still left open to debate. But his talents and mastery of a lyric come to the fore on this marvelous two-CD set of tunes cherry-picked from his long, if not particularly prolific, career, leaving no doubt about his prodigious talents. Hartman went through label ...

Black Orchid (1956) more music like this

by Cal Tjader

This CD has all of the music originally on the two LPs Cal Tjader Goes Latin and The Cal Tjader Quintet. Since each album had two sessions apiece, the CD does a fine job of giving one a sampling of the influential vibraphonist's popular Latin jazz groups of the era. Among the key sideman are flutist Paul Horn; Jose "Chombo" Silva on tenor; ...

Fifty Years: The Artistry of Tony Bennett (2004) more music like this

by Tony Bennett

When the first version of this impressive box set was originally released in 1991 (as Forty Years: The Artistry of Tony Bennett), it put the capstone upon Tony Bennett's remarkable return to prominence by looking back at a legacy that had been overshadowed by that of the colossus Sinatra. The collection methodically traced his career from his ...

On a High Note: Best of the Concord Jazz Recordings (2007) more music like this

by Maynard Ferguson

Trumpeter Maynard Ferguson's move to Concord Records in the mid-'90s was a return to form for the iconic high-note jazz musician. Having scored his biggest success in the '70s with the jazz-funk of "The Theme from 'Rocky'," Ferguson had achieved a level of fame, money and legend few of his contemporaries would match. However, by the '80s the ...

At the Jazz Corner of the World, Vol. 1-2 (1959) more music like this

by Art Blakey

This two-CD set is a logical reissue, combining both volumes (formerly Lp's) of a live performance by Art Blakey and his 1959 Jazz Messengers. Recorded shortly after tenor-saxophonist Benny Golson had left the group, this particular version of Blakey's classic band featured trumpeter Lee Morgan, Hank Mobley on tenor (his only recordings with the ...

She Loves Me/There's Love & There's Love & There's Love (1999) more music like this

by Jack Jones

This two-fer assembles a pair of classic Jack Jones sessions first issued on Kapp Records in the mid-'60s. She Loves Me teams Jones with arranger Jack D. Elliot for the sweetest, sunniest record in the crooner's Kapp catalog. Inspired by bossa nova and related Brazilian rhythms and textures, the music captures Jones at his most effervescent, with ...

by Doris Day

Doris Day had considerable success for a non-film project with Day by Day, an album of interwar ballads conducted by Paul Weston, in 1957. Naturally enough, she re-teamed with Weston for the following year's Day by Night, another thematic album, this one a "program of night songs," as the liner notes put it. Day and Weston were mostly concerned ...
