by Eric Dolphy

My Cup Runneth Over

My Cup Runneth Over (1967) more music like this

by Ed Ames

Ed Ames operates in the pop music tradition of show tunes, film themes, and powerful vocalists; his well-trained, masculine baritone has more in common with Mario Lanza than his adult pop contemporaries like Andy Williams. "My Cup Runneth Over" was Ames' biggest hit because, even though it came from the stage, the tender sentiment and simple ...

Blue Gardenia

Blue Gardenia (2001) more music like this

by Etta James

The legendary blues singer indeed lives up to the silly cliché about being able to sing the phone book and make it sound rich, meaningful, and soulful. Still, it's always exciting to hear her tackle materials she's missed before. Here she shifts gears impressively into the intimate jazz club mode, performing beautifully arranged takes on a wide ...

Eastern Sounds

Eastern Sounds (1961) more music like this

by Yusef Lateef

One of multi-instrumentalist and composer Yusef Lateef's most enduring recordings, Eastern Sounds was one of the last recordings made by the band that Lateef shared with pianist Barry Harris after the band moved to New York from Detroit, where the jazz scene was already dying. Lateef had long been interested in Eastern music, long before John ...

Charlie Parker at Storyville

Charlie Parker at Storyville (1953) more music like this

by Charlie Parker

This LP contains two broadcasts at Boston's Storyville club in 1953. One set finds Parker accompanied by the Red Garland Trio (two years before Garland became famous playing with Miles Davis), while the other one also features trumpeter Herb Pomeroy and a trio led by pianist Sir Charles Thompson. The recording quality is just so-so but Bird was in ...

Romantic Jazz

Romantic Jazz (1955) more music like this

by Jackie Gleason

True to its title, Romantic Jazz is one of Jackie Gleason's jazzier efforts. His particular brand of mood music strikes a more brassy and swinging pose here, with occasional breaks for instrumental solos that, for the most part, seem tightly composed rather than improvised. Bobby Hackett's lyrical trumpet playing is often the draw on Gleason's ...

Moody's Mood for Love [Blue Note]

Moody's Mood for Love [Blue Note] (1955) more music like this

by King Pleasure

The bulk of this CD reissue contains King Pleasure's final recording session, a 1962 set with unidentified personnel (other than tenor saxophonist Seldon Powell). A few remakes ("I'm in the Mood for Love" and "Don't Get Started") are joined by originals, a couple of straightforward tunes, and some newer vocalese arrangements. In addition, this CD ...

Man Bites Harmonica

Man Bites Harmonica (1957) more music like this

by Toots Thielemans

Although he plays guitar exclusively on two of the eight selections included on this CD reissue, it is Toots Thielemans' harmonica playing that is most unique. He holds his own on a hard bop blowing date with baritonist Pepper Adams, pianist Kenny Drew, bassist Wilbur Ware and drummer Art Taylor, jamming on such songs as "East of the Sun," ...

The Classic Singles

The Classic Singles (2003) more music like this

by Nat King Cole

If you add up all the songs Nat King Cole placed in the various Billboard singles charts -- including not only the pop and R&B charts, but also the adult contemporary and even country ones, as well as the lists of discs "bubbling under" the main pop chart -- the total comes to a remarkable 123, and that's not including the many repeat appearances ...

The Music of Johnny Mathis: A Personal Collection (1994) more music like this

The Music of Johnny Mathis: A Personal Collection is exactly that, a four-disc box set of recordings hand-picked by Johnny Mathis, with an accompanying booklet filled with biographical information and his recollections about each song. The 86 selections are arranged in chronological order from Mathis' first recording, "When Sunny Gets Blue" from ...

Capuchin Swing (1960) more music like this

by Jackie McLean

One of McLean's more underrated albums from a plethora of Blue Note releases, 1960's Capuchin Swing finds the bebop alto saxophonist in fine form on a mix of covers and originals. While McLean's future fascination with Ornette Coleman's free-form innovations can be sensed in some solos here, the majority of the album is in a classic hard bop vein. ...

Monk Alone: The Complete Columbia Solo Studio Recordings: 1962-1968 (1998) more music like this

by Thelonious Monk

As any Monk aficionado knows, his solo piano performances were wonderful, idiosyncratic, living works of art that often wound up in completely different territory from where they began. Sometimes the results would be a little shakey; often they would be inspiring. Regardless, these solo performances were adventures, and that quality makes the ...

Central Avenue Reunion (1989) more music like this

by Art Farmer with Frank Morgan

Three of the five musicians on this quintet date (flügelhornist Art Farmer, altoist Frank Morgan, and pianist Lou Levy) had played on Central Avenue in Los Angeles of the late '40s. Not all of the eight songs that they perform with bassist Eric Von Essen and drummer Albert "Tootie" Heath are from the era ("Blue Minor" and "Cool Struttin'" were ...

Jazz (2007) more music like this

by Etta James

Perhaps the most amazing thing about the singing of Etta James is not her versatility -- she has tackled and excelled in gospel, blues, R&B, soul, rock, jazz and pure pop -- but the way her singing stays unmistakably the same in all genres, always conveying strength, emotional honesty, and a subtly nuanced streak of defiant pride that allows her ...

Young Sassy (2001) more music like this

by Sarah Vaughan

From the start of her career, Sarah Vaughan had a wondrous voice. She never declined and her voice remained a miracle throughout her career. She learned about bop phrasing during 1943-1944 when she was with the orchestras of Earl Hines and Billy Eckstine (singing alongside Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker) and, although she would perform many ...

The Best of the War Years (2001) more music like this

by The Andrews Sisters

During World War II, the Andrews Sisters were famous for patriotic pop. Obviously, not everything they recorded had to do with war or the United States military -- Maxene, Patty, and LaVerne Andrews were quite popular before the U.S. entered World War II. But they were responsible for some of the most famous (and cutest) patriotic hits of their ...

Through the miracle of high-resolution digital transfer and mastering technology, Bird enthusiasts can now get an earful of the shape of Charlie Parker's musical accomplishments for Savoy and Dial in the 1940s. Available as a three-disc box set, the alto saxophonist is recorded in various configurations as performer and bandleader with such ...

The Amazing Bud Powell, Vol. 3: Bud! [Expanded] (2002) more music like this

by Bud Powell

Bud Powell's playing in the late '50s (just prior to his move to Paris) found the troubled pianist in erratic form, often struggling to make it through songs he had written. However, his three Blue Note recordings from the era (which include the slightly later Time Waits and The Scene Changes) feature Powell in surprisingly inspired form; all of ...

You Don't Know My Mind (1989) more music like this

by Banu Gibson

Banu Gibson ranks at the top of her field, one of the very few creative singers in the 1990s interpreting music from the 1920s in the older style without directly copying any of the past greats. There are plenty of exciting solos on this CD from cornetist Charles Fardella, trombonist David Sager, the reeds (clarinet, tenor, and alto) of Tom ...

Criss-Cross was Thelonious Monk's first recording for Columbia. His quartet at the time consisted of Charles Rouse, Frankie Dunlop, and John Ore. Legacy's deluxe reissue is a case in point for the high standards they've set in caring for Columbia's jazz catalog. Here are the original nine tracks -- plus three bonus cuts (both alternate takes), two ...
