Careless Love

Careless Love (2004) more music like this

by Madeleine Peyroux

Why it took vocalist Madeleine Peyroux eight years to follow up her acclaimed Dreamland album is anybody's guess. The explanation from her website bio claims, "I could have kept running with it, but I took a breather." Really it hardly matters, since there have been plenty of capable singers to fill that void. Produced by Larry Klein, Careless ...

Playin' with My Friends: Bennett Sings the Blues

Playin' with My Friends: Bennett Sings the Blues (2001) more music like this

by Tony Bennett

Tony Bennett's latter-day albums tend to have themes, and this one has two, as indicated by its double-barreled title: It is both a duets album and a blues album. The duet partners include ten singers who range from his recent touring partners Diana Krall and k.d. lang to fellow veterans Ray Charles, B.B. King, and Kay Starr, and younger, but ...

Trav'lin' Light

Trav'lin' Light (2007) more music like this

by Queen Latifah

Trav'lin' Light, Queen Latifah's follow-up to her first collection of pop standards, The Dana Owens Album (2004), is, if anything, even better than that Grammy-nominated set. Contemporary performers often get into trouble when they take on music of the pre-rock era, but this one, who is by now so far removed from her origins that she probably ...

The Definitive Collection

The Definitive Collection (2006) more music like this

by Etta James

Whoa. There are many Etta James collections out there. The standard-bearers thus far have been the Chess Box and the Essential Etta James. This set attempts to do something else and goes deep into her catalog to dig out the gems from her years with Modern, Argo, Cadet, Chess, Warner Brothers, Island, and Private Music/BMG, and presents the full ...

Her Best

Her Best (1997) more music like this

by Etta James

While several best-ofs from Etta James' Chess period have been available over the years -- with the two-disc, 44-track Essential Etta James at the top of the list in giving the big picture -- this 20-track collection sweats that bigger picture down to bare essentials. For those wishing to finally sample Etta's classic period at Chess without ...

20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection

20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection (1999) more music like this

by Etta James

Like any record company worth their salt, MCA knows a good gimmick when they see it, and when the millennium came around -- well, the 20th Century Masters -- The Millennium Collection wasn't too far behind. Supposedly, the millennium is a momentous occasion, but it's hard to feel that way when it's used as another excuse to turn out a budget-line ...

Holding Back the Years

Holding Back the Years (1998) more music like this

by Jimmy Scott

After venturing into the rock and soul catalog with renditions of Bob Dylan, Curtis Mayfield, and the Talking Heads songs, Little Jimmy Scott really digs here with a program made up almost entirely by pop hits from the last three decades. Due in part to the insight of producers Gerry McCarthy and Dale Ashley, Scott tackles contemporary material ...

Made in the Shade

Made in the Shade (2007) more music like this

by Red Stick Ramblers

Louisiana's Red Stick Ramblers, led by the twin fiddle attack of Kevin Wimmer and Linzay Young, are a versatile little modern string band as likely to burst into some Hot Club jazz as they are to update some classic Cajun 2-step into a chooglin' bit of swamp blues. On Made in the Shade, their fourth album and first for Sugar Hill Records, they do ...

The Essential Etta James comprises 44 tracks summarizing the long and brilliant Chess tenure of "Miss Peaches," Etta James, opening with her 1960 smash "All I Could Do Was Cry," and encompassing her torchy, fully orchestrated ballads "At Last," "My Dearest Darling," and "Trust in Me," and continuing on through her 1962 gospel-rocker "Something's ...

The Chess Box (2000) more music like this

by Etta James

Etta James is one of the towering figures of the blues, the foremost female blues vocalist of the second half of the 20th century, and the foundation of her legacy is her recordings for Chess Records in the '60s. Despite her reputation and enduring popularity, Etta didn't receive a box set retrospective between 1988 and 1990, the time when Chess ...

All or Nothing at All: The Dramatic Jimmy Scott (2005) more music like this

by Little Jimmy Scott

Little Jimmy Scott (as he was billed at the time) did his first important recordings for Herman Lubinsky's Savoy label in the mid-'50s, but while Savoy didn't always seem certain of what to do with this admittedly idiosyncratic talent, they certainly didn't want other companies getting their hands on him, and as a result landmark recordings Scott ...

The Count Basie and His Orchestra (1944) (1944) more music like this

by Count Basie Orchestra

Given the paucity of Basie recordings from the 1940s issued by his own label, the quality and content of this collection of 14 songs cut exclusively for radio in 1944 is scandalously good. The tracks, including a long version of "One O'Clock Jump" with an extended piano introduction by Basie, a hot version of "Lady Be Good" with guest clarinetist ...

Midnight Serenade/Ballroom Date (2005) more music like this

by Sammy Kaye

This two-fer from Collectables features a pair of out of print LPs by Sammy Kaye, Midnight Serenade and Ballroom Date, both originally issued on Columbia in 1959 and 1960, respectively. These 25 tracks are formulaic renditions of hit pop songs of the era, including "Dream a Little Dream of Me," "(There Is) No Greater Love," and "The Very Thought ...

This British compilation traces Helen Ward's work as female vocalist with the orchestras of Benny Goodman, Gene Krupa, Teddy Wilson, Bob Crosby, Joe Sullivan, and Harry James between 1936 and 1943. Of course, Ward's most prominent association was with Goodman from 1934 to 1936, a pairing that resulted in the chart-toppers "It's Been So Long," ...

Malcolm X [Original Soundtrack] (1992) more music like this

Co-produced by Spike Lee and Quincy Jones, and released on Jones' label, the soundtrack to Lee's Malcolm X includes a number of artists contemporary to Malcolm X's movement, as well as his growing-up years, to some degree. The album is primarily notable for the quality of the jazz presented (Lionel Hampton's arguably best-known song, Billie ...
