1	Ken Burns Jazz: The Story of America's Music (2000) more music like this by Various Artists In conjunction with documentary filmmaker Ken Burns' ten-part 2000 PBS special, Columbia/Legacy and Verve teamed up to issue a special series of reissues covering much of the history of 20th century jazz. The central release of this program is the five-CD box set Ken Burns Jazz: The Story of America's Music, its 94 selections covering the history ... see all copies from $14.29! new only from $50.06!
2	The Essential Duke Ellington [Sony] (2005) more music like this by Duke Ellington The Essential Duke Ellington, a two-CD set, differs from previous Columbia/Legacy Duke Ellington reissues in that the music is drawn not only from Sony's vaults but from BMG's vaults, too. Four selections are from the 1920s, 20 date from the 1930s, seven are from the 1940s, and the final six were recorded between 1950 and 1960. Is this an ... see all copies from $22.14! new only from $22.14!
3	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.

4	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 $8.58! new only from $8.58!
5	Tempus Fugue-It (2001) more music like this by Bud Powell This is a fascinating, revelatory, deeply moving, and completely captivating collection of Bud Powell material that hasn't readily seen the light of day before, despite the fact that almost all of it has been commercially released at one time or another. The material over these four discs ranges from pre-bebop years, with Cootie Williams from 1944 ... see all copies from $19.21! new only from $19.21!
6	Duke's Men: The Small Groups, Vol. 1 (1934) more music like this by Duke Ellington In the '30s, Ellington started recording prolifically with small groups taken from his big band. It gave him an opportunity to both debut new works and to let his sidemen stretch out and act as leaders once in awhile (under his direction). This two-disc set contains 45 recordings, almost all of them brilliant, including sessions ostensibly under ... see all copies from $49.00! new only from $51.85!

14 view cover	Bossa Nova/Jazz Waltz (2002) more music like this by Shorty Rogers Not long before he took an extended breather from the jazz life, Shorty Rogers cut these two albums for Frank Sinatra's then-new Reprise label. Out of print for decades, both Bossa Nova and Jazz Waltz feature Rogers' smart big band arrangements, supple horn playing, and the finest cool jazz musicians on the West Coast. Bossa Nova retrofits the ... see all copies from $12.15! new only from $12.15!
15 view cover	Dick Hyman Plays Duke Ellington (1992) more music like this by Dick Hyman Performed (as was Dick Hyman's previous Fats Waller project) on a Bosendorfer Reproducing Piano and actually recorded from the piano at a later date (one really cannot tell the difference), this outing finds the great Hyman interpreting 14 of Duke Ellington's compositions. Most intriguing are Ellington's nearly atonal "The Clothed Woman" and "Tonk ... see all copies from $15.89! new only from $15.89!

17 view cover	The Music of the Trumpet Kings (1996) more music like this by Various Artists Most of the recordings put out by the German Nagel-Heyer label are pre-bop, ranging from Dixieland to mainstream. This outing stretches the boundaries a little, for trumpeter Randy Sandke (who is joined by tenor saxophonist Harry Allen and a big band led by Jiggs Whigham) pays tribute to a variety of great trumpeters ranging from Louis Armstrong ... see all copies from $34.26!

23 view cover	Bolling Plays Ellington, Vol. 1 (1991) more music like this by Claude Bolling Claude Bolling leads his big band through ten Duke Ellington compositions (mostly from the 1930s and '40s), plus Mercer Ellington's "Blue Serge," on this mid-'80s release. Although Bolling's orchestra does closely emulate Duke's in the ensembles (many of the arrangements are close adaptations of Ellington's recordings), one does miss the ... see all copies from $2.95!
24 view cover	Memories of Duke (1980) more music like this by Clark Terry 5 Flugelhornist Clark Terry and a strong quartet (pianist Jack Wilson, guitarist Joe Pass, bassist Ray Brown and drummer Frank Severino) perform nine songs associated with Duke Ellington, including seven of Ellington's compositions, plus a tune apiece from Billy Strayhorn ("Passion Flower") and Mercer Ellington ("Things Ain't What They Used to Be"). ... see all copies from $11.51! new only from $16.38!
25 view cover	Barnet, Vol. 1 (1935-1939) (1935) more music like this by Charlie Barnet While not in the same league as the ensembles of Ellington, Basie, or Lunceford, Charlie Barnet's big band did produce some top sides between 1939-1945. After searching for his own niche throughout the '30s, Barnet hit his stride with a smash cover of "Cherokee." Taking elements of both Ellington and Basie, Barnet fashioned a relatively hard ... see all copies from $39.26!
