1	The Look of Love (2001) more music like this by Diana Krall Diana Krall is an attractive lady with a good voice who plays decent piano, but this somewhat ridiculously packaged Verve CD seems like an obvious attempt to turn her into a pop icon, and sex symbol to boot. The bland arrangements by Claus Ogerman (who conducts the London Symphony Orchetra or the Los Angeles Session Orchestra on each track) border ... see all copies from $4.75! new only from $12.99!
2	A Voice in Time: 1939-1952 (2007) more music like this by Frank Sinatra This four-CD set is a first in Frank Sinatra's Columbia Records discography: a box set that encompasses his Columbia solo sides with his work for Tommy Dorsey and Harry James, plus live broadcast sides up through 1952. It may also perplex some potential purchasers, especially those who already have the 12-CD Sony/Legacy Columbia Years set -- which ... see all copies from $17.50! new only from $34.99!
3	Come Dance with Me! (1958) more music like this by Frank Sinatra Working with Billy May again, Frank Sinatra recorded his hardest swing album ever with Come Dance with Me! Driven by an intensely swinging horn section, the album has a fair share of slower numbers, but the songs that make the biggest impression are the up-tempo cuts. With May's charts wildly careening all over the place, Sinatra relies on his ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $15.11!
4	The This One's from the Heart (1999) more music like this by James Darren During a career that's stretched for more than 40 years, James Darren has touched many of the bases in the entertainment game. He started in the 1950s when he was a teenage idol of the big screen, and then moved on to appearances on any number of TV shows over the ensuing years. One of the more notable of these appearances was his portrayal of a ... see all copies from $16.81! new only from $16.81!
5	Somethin' Else (1958) more music like this by Cannonball Adderley It isn't too difficult to understand why MFSL considered this album to be a worthy candidate for an Ultradisc reissue -- aside from Cannonball Adderley, you have a lineup that includes Miles Davis, Hank Jones, Sam Jones, and Art Blakey. This is a group that could take on a Barry Manilow number and turn it into a jazz masterpiece. MFSL have done ... see all copies from $5.69! new only from $10.50!
6	Taking a Chance on Love (2004) more music like this by Jane Monheit see all copies from $12.69! new only from $12.69!
7	I'll Take Romance (2002) more music like this by Beegie Adair One reason that the great pop standards of the 1930s, '40s, and '50s are great pop standards is that they have proven versatile. Though usually written for Broadway or Hollywood musicals, they were taken up by pop musicians while still new, and over the years served as vehicles for jazz players before being transformed by Frank Sinatra and his ... see all copies from $11.38! new only from $11.38!
8	At Carnegie Hall (1975) more music like this by Barbara Cook Barbara Cook's third solo album, At Carnegie Hall, which followed her second, Sings From the Heart by 16 years, marked a crucial turning point in her career. From the early 1950s to the early 1970s, Cook had been a Broadway star, her most notable appearances being in The Music Man (1957) and She Loves Me (1963). But as she reached her mid-40s, the ... see all copies from $6.50! new only from $8.29!
9	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 ... see all copies from $6.19! new only from $6.19!
10	Stardust [RCA] (2004) more music like this by Artie Shaw see all copies from $3.00! new only from $5.33!
11 view cover	Jazz 'Round Midnight: Charlie Parker (1991) more music like this by Charlie Parker For listeners not ready to tackle the more frenetic world of Parker's bop innovations, this fine sampler of his ballad work will be welcome news; no "Ko-Ko" here, just several stellar showcases for Bird's pathos-rich and bittersweet alto flights. The mix includes both combo dates ("Star Eyes") and strings sessions ("Dancing in the Dark"), with ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.29!
12 view cover	Trio '64 (1963) more music like this by Bill Evans Joining Bill Evans (piano) on Trio '64 (1964) -- his initial first three-piece recording for Verve -- is the compact rhythm section of Gary Peacock (bass) and Paul Motian (drums). The effort spotlights their communal and intuitive musical discourse, hinging on an uncanny ability of the musicians to simultaneously hear and respond. All the more ... see all copies from $13.91! new only from $13.91!
13 view cover	Steppin' Out (1993) more music like this by Tony Bennett Bennett's tribute to songs that Fred Astaire made famous (including standards by Gershwin, Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, and Jerome Kern) is as strong a record as anything he has made recently, including the acclaimed Perfectly Frank. All Music Guide, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.65!
14 view cover	More of Other Worlds, Other Sounds (1962) more music like this by Esquivel Traditionally the most sought after and highest valued Esquivel record, More of Other Sounds Other Worlds should be considered in context. First, it is not a sequel to the RCA record of three years earlier. The title only reflects Stanley Wilson's desire to record Esquivel since having heard the earlier LP. Second, the label switch is significant. ... see all copies from $9.55! new only from $9.55!
15 view cover	La Serpenta Canta (2003) more music like this by Diamanda Galás Blues is a scary form of music. The authentic blues relies on the turmoil of strong, often shameful emotions. Bluesmen like John Lee Hooker and Screamin' Jay Hawkins could sing in a very scary voice that sent shivers down your spine. So can Diamanda Galás. In fact, she's the scariest of them all. Then again, she's not a blues singer. Or isn't she? ... see all copies from $8.53! new only from $13.92!
16 view cover	Dancing in the Dark (1985) more music like this by Dave McKenna The great swing pianist Dave McKenna performs 11 selections written by Arthur Schwartz, one of the lesser-known (but very talented) songwriters of the golden age of American popular music. Among the pieces that McKenna joyfully revives are "By Myself," "A Shine on Your Shoes," "I Guess I'll Have to Change My Plan," and "Dancing in the Dark." ... see all copies from $8.25! new only from $8.25!
17 view cover	Get Out Those Old Records: 50 of His Many Greatest (2002) more music like this by Guy Lombardo & His Royal Canadians see all copies from $13.53! new only from $13.53!
18 view cover	The War: A Ken Burns Film [Deluxe Edition] (2007) more music like this by Original TV Soundtrack The War, directed by Ken Burns, was a seven-part documentary series broadcast on PBS television in 2007, focusing on the experiences of American soldiers in World War II. Much popular music of the period was heard on the soundtrack, as was some music specifically composed and recorded for use in the film. This four-CD set, with the full title The ... see all copies from $8.75! new only from $17.49!
19 view cover	Sentimental Journey: Hits from the Second World War (2007) more music like this by Various Artists This 20-track companion disc to the Ken Burns' PBS documentary The War provides a brief glimpse into the swing and pop music synonymous with World War II. Attempting to choose 20 songs for a single disc that are beloved by those who lived through that era, while also trying to sustain the curiosity of those who didn't, is a lofty goal. As it turns ... see all copies from $8.53! new only from $8.53!
20 view cover	Poet of the Piano (2001) more music like this by Carmen Cavallaro Carmen Cavallero was the grand master of popular piano during the 1940s and '50s. Living Era's Poet of the Piano borrows its title from an old Decca double LP that contained the same number of tracks and some of the same selections. More passionate than his idol Eddy Duchin, Cavallero was a skilled interpreter of romantic jazz/pop standards like ... see all copies from $7.80! new only from $11.17!
21 view cover	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 ... see all copies from $43.19! new only from $43.19!
22 view cover	It's Easy to Remember (2001) more music like this by Bing Crosby The European copyright law on recordings, which cuts off after only 50 years, is responsible for many shoddy compilations of the work of vintage artists, scratchy 78s from someone's collection transferred to disc and put out with little or no concern for quality. But it also allows for more respectable efforts, such as the series of four-CD box ... see all copies from $24.22! new only from $24.22!
23 view cover	Duality (1994) more music like this by Peter Leitch & John Hicks Peter Leitch and John Hicks joined forces for a third studio date on Reservoir, though this time out, it is just the two of them. Leitch, a lyrical player in the style of Jim Hall, is beautifully complemented by Hicks' piano technique. While standards are a part of the date (and well played, too), the originals by each of the two men and the ... see all copies from $14.43! new only from $14.43!
24 view cover	The Astaire Story (1988) more music like this by Fred Astaire Because he was world renowned as a dancer and quite popular as a movie actor, Fred Astaire has tended to be underrated (if not completely overlooked) as a jazz singer. Although not really an improviser, Astaire's phrasing always swung and his occasional vocals on record were usually a joy. This two-CD set is something special for it features ... see all copies from $12.50!
25 view cover	Plays the Music of Arthur Schwartz (2007) more music like this by Ray Kennedy Arthur Schwartz doesn't get album-length tributes as often as guys like Jerome Kern and Cole Porter and the Gershwin brothers, but he certainly should: even if you don't know his name, you know the names of songs for which he wrote the music: "That's Entertainment," "You and the Night and the Music," "Haunted Heart," "'Dancing in the Dark." On ... see all copies from $14.79! new only from $14.79!
