1	Black Coffee (1956) more music like this by Peggy Lee Peggy Lee left Capitol in 1952 for, among several other reasons, the label's refusal to let her record and release an exotic, tumultuous version of "Lover." Lee was certainly no Mitch Miller songbird, content to loosen her gorgeous pipes on any piece of tripe foisted upon her; she was a superb songwriter with a knowledge of production and ... see all copies from $14.52! new only from $14.52!
2	Progressions: 100 Years of Jazz Guitar (2005) more music like this by Various Artists This expansive four-disc anthology essentially covers the recorded history of the guitar in the 20th century, beginning with the ragtime banjo that set the table for the role of the guitar in a jazz setting in the early 1900s, and then touching all the bases clear through to the post-postmodern possibilities of the instrument in the 21st century. ... see all copies from $27.33! new only from $27.33!
3	The Soul of Ben Webster/Gee Baby, Ain't I Good to You/Blues a Plenty (1995) more music like this by Ben Webster/Harry Edison/Johnny Hodges Although tenor saxophonist Ben Webster gets top billing, this two-CD set actually contains an LP apiece by Webster, trumpeter Harry "Sweets" Edison, and altoist Johnny Hodges. Webster is on all of the recordings, but really only stars on the first date, a septet outing with trumpeter Art Farmer and fellow tenor Harold Ashby. The great tenor is at ... see all copies from $17.06! new only from $20.18!
4	Girl Talk (2001) more music like this by Vanessa Rubin Jazz vocalist Vanessa Rubin is joined by a stellar cast on her second Telarc release. Bassist David Williams and drummer Lewis Nash hold down the rhythm, joined alternately by pianist/arrangers Larry Willis and Cedar Walton, tenor saxophonists Eric Alexander and Javon Jackson, and trombonist Steve Davis. Rubin's flexible voice covers a wide ... see all copies from $14.58! new only from $17.06!
5	Dorothy Donegan Trio with Clark Terry (1992) more music like this by Dorothy Donegan Trio see all copies from $12.47! new only from $15.89!
6	Jazz Gold (2007) more music like this by Various Artists While the title Jazz Gold is quite a stretch, this double-disc set highlights several different varieties of the genre that encompass big-band leader Woody Herman, legendary bop saxophonist Charlie Parker, soul-jazz organist Jimmy Smith and Latin jazz showman and percussionist Tito Puente. While the sound quality varies throughout, this is a ... see all copies from $5.26! new only from $20.59!
7	For Lovers: Billie Holiday/Nina Simone/Sarah Vaughan (2005) more music like this by Various Artists With three albums in one, For Lovers: Billie Holiday/Nina Simone/Sarah Vaughan presents an attractive package, especially in comparison to having to buy the individual Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, and Sarah Vaughan editions. The songs for each singer were chosen to highlight each one's more romantic side (there's no "Strange Fruit" or "Mississippi ... see all copies from $22.49! new only from $26.61!
8	Blowing My Horn (1997) by Various Artists see all copies from $13.34! new only from $13.34!
9	Return of the Hydra (2001) more music like this by Michael Coppola Trio Return of the Hydra follows on Michael Coppola's exceptional first album, Enter the Hydra. "Hydra" is Coppola's nine-stringed axe, named after the nine-headed monster of Greek mythology. Starting out as an eight-stringed instrument, which is innovative in and of itself, Coppola added another string, which makes it sound as if he is providing his ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $16.05!
10	Centerpiece (1978) more music like this by Hank Crawford This little-known Hank Crawford LP was a transitional record between his long associations with Kudu and Milestone. More straightahead than his Kudu dates, the program is highlighted by the Harry "Sweets" Edison blues "Centerpiece," "Gee Baby Ain't I Good to You" and Slide Hampton's "Frame for the Blues." In addition to Crawford (who splits his ... see all copies from $9.71! new only from $11.48!
11	The Jubilee Alternatives (1943) more music like this by Count Basie Orchestra Like Hindsight's Count Basie and His Orchestra 1944, The Jubilee Alternatives covers the period from December 1943 until October 1944, when the Musicians' Union's ban meant that few major acts got to record. Some of the songs on this 71-minute CD overlap with Hindsight's 44 minutes, but a most are unused alternate takes or completely unused songs, ... see all copies from $10.88! new only from $16.39!
12 view cover	Cat Meets Chick/The Jazz Odyssey of James Rushing, Esq. (2002) more music like this by Jimmy Rushing Jimmy Rushing's first two Columbia Records albums, recorded in 1955 and 1956 and originally released in 1956 and 1957, both have concepts behind them. Cat Meets Chick is actually co-billed to Ada Moore (who had just made her Broadway debut in House of Flowers) and trumpeter Buck Clayton, and it is "a story in jazz," the story being Rushing and ... see all copies from $11.74! new only from $11.74!
13 view cover	Gee, Baby, Ain't I Good to You [New World] (1999) more music like this by The Jimmy Rushing All-Stars This is a decent session that, considering the lineup, does not live up to its potential. At what was essentially a jazz party held in a recording studio, the musicians (trumpeter Buck Clayton, trombonist Dicky Wells, tenor saxophonist Julian Dash, pianist Sir Charles Thompson, bassist Gene Ramey, and drummer Jo Jones) are all veterans of the ... see all copies from $13.37! new only from $13.37!

20 view cover	Complete Sextet Studio Sessions (2006) more music like this by Ben Webster Although they originally became famous for playing with different big bands (trumpeter Harry "Sweets" Edison with Count Basie and tenor-saxophonist Ben Webster with Duke Ellington), the two very distinctive swing stylists recorded together frequently in the late 1950s including with Billie Holiday. The music on this two-CD set is drawn from four ... see all copies from $24.37! new only from $24.37!
