1	At Last (1989) more music like this by Lou Rawls He's never deserted either blues or jazz, but Lou Rawls hasn't always found a receptive audience for these styles at notoriously conservative major labels. That wasn't the case on this 1989 album, on which Rawls performed straightahead jazz and pre-rock pop or blues, and was backed by an all-star lineup including Ray Charles, Cornell Dupree, Steve ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $10.79!
2	Atlantic Rhythm & Blues 1947-1974 [Box] (1991) more music like this by Various Artists This eight-CD set should be a part of any collection that presumes to take American music -- not just rock & roll or rhythm & blues -- seriously. Atlantic Records was one of dozens of independent labels started up after the war by neophyte executives and producers, but it was different from most of the others in that the guys who ran it were ... see all copies from $78.64! new only from $78.64!
3	Out Front! (1961) more music like this by Jaki Byard Although Jaki Byard was a very eclectic pianist, this is a surprisingly conventional set. On most selections he is joined by bassist Bob Cranshaw and drummer Walter Perkins (in 1964) for fairly straight-ahead renditions of standards and obscurities. A few of the numbers add Booker Ervin on tenor and trumpeter Richard Williams, and of these by far ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
4	Atlantic Blues 1949-1970 (2007) by Various Artists This limited edition (3000 copies) box screams old school. From its album sized packaging to the sepia toned photos, rare poster reproductions and pictures of the artists, the four disc anthology is geared towards collectors with an eye to the past. The first of three sets (soul and vocal groups are the other two genres covered) celebrating ... see all copies from $127.66! new only from $127.66!
5	Jazz Divas: Gold (2007) more music like this by Various Artists There are no less than 20 CD compilations on the market with the words "Jazz Divas" in the title, and another eight that use the phrase "Divas of Jazz." Those two nouns, so carelessly bandied about, describe improvising female vocalists whose works are an extension of a tradition established by Bessie Smith, Adelaide Hall, Ethel Waters, Mildred ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $6.00!
6	Starring Al Hibbler/Here's Hibbler! (1956) more music like this by Al Hibbler Although Al Hibbler collaborated over the years with such brilliant musical minds as Duke Ellington, Billy Strayhorn, Count Basie, Gerald Wilson, Harry Carney, Ben Webster, Johnny Hodges and Rahsaan Roland Kirk, his work with the Jack Pleis orchestra also may serve as a perfect introduction to this remarkable vocalist. Hibbler's highly developed ... see all copies from $9.00!
7	G.F.S.U. (2000) more music like this by Lolita Storm Following the footsteps of pioneering riot grrls is the German outfit Lolita Storm, and like the industrial female artists before them (Hanin Elias, Gina D'Orio), Lolita Storm strikes with a fiery vengeance -- a vengeance against corporate mainstream rock. Their debut album G.F.S.U. is a bold move featuring distorted rockabilly loops layered over ... see all copies from $7.95! new only from $13.71!
8	Atlantic R&B Box Set (2006) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $76.64! new only from $76.64!
9	Original Soul (2004) by Grace Potter see all copies from $14.97! new only from $14.97!
10	After the Lights Go Down Low (1956) more music like this by Al Hibbler Stylized at times to an almost outrageous degree, the suave and sophisticated voice of Al Hibbler is really unlike that of any other singer ever recorded. His peculiarly chosen dialects, the exaggerated vibrato, the roller coaster plunges into the bass clef and a general air of self-caricature make any Al Hibbler recording a uniquely entertaining ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $10.28!
11	Balladeers (1993) more music like this by Various Artists Featuring a dozen-plus-two stunning vocal tracks by some of the greatest pop and jazz singers of the 20th century, Balladeers includes a pair of Louis Armstrong vocal gems, "When It's Sleepy Time Down South" and "That Lucky Old Sun (Just Rolls Around Heaven All Day)"; Mel Tormé's stunning and definitive "That Old Black Magic"; Nat King Cole's ... see all copies from $1.99!
12	All-Time Classics (1976) more music like this by The Stylistics When the Stylistics switched to Amherst in the '80s, their glorious "sweet" soul hits were repackaged on a couple of collections. This was a singular set covering their finest '70s numbers; another package split them into a two-part release. It's slightly improved in sound quality over the 1975 The Best of The Stylistics, and hearing Russell ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $11.86!
13 view cover	Best Thing for You (1997) more music like this by Della Reese see all copies from $10.00! new only from $19.35!

15 view cover	Ska: The Third Wave, Vol. 1 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists With ska seeding out of the grassroots and into the mainstream, ever more labels were looking to reap the skanking whirlwind, much to the satisfaction of bands who had previously been left to wither (or flourish) under benign neglect. Ska: The Third Wave was originally released in 1995 by Continuum Records, and the New Jersey label inevitably ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $3.98!
16 view cover	Wild and Cool (1998) more music like this by Johnny Nocturne Band With a solid four-horn frontline that reads and solo in the fine old-time tradition of the territory bands of yore, the Johnny Nocturne Band come to the plate with their third album full of jazz heavily laced with blues. Leader and saxophonist John Firmin keeps his troops swinging throughout this 11-song set, working like a fine, precise machine ... see all copies from $5.99!
17 view cover	Love Songs: Greatest Duets (2003) more music like this by Marvin Gaye Marvin Gaye's Love Songs: Greatest Duets gathers most of his best-known duets, organizing them by singing partner. After getting off to a poor, but well-meaning start with a 1994 version of "Distant Lover" that pairs Gaye's original vocals with re-recorded vocals by Betty Wright and tinny-sounding production, the album does a 180 by offering up ... see all copies from $3.49! new only from $3.49!
18 view cover	Together/Take Two (2001) more music like this by Marvin Gaye & Mary Wells/Marvin Gaye & Kim Weston In 2001, Motown released Together/Take Two, which contains two original duet albums -- Together (1964, recorded with Mary Wells) and Take Two (1966, recorded with Kim Weston) -- by Marvin Gaye on one compact disc. John Bush, All Music Guide see all copies from $13.33! new only from $13.33!
19 view cover	Body and Soul/My Last Night in Rome (2001) more music like this by Buddy Greco This two-fer from Collectables features a pair of out of print Buddy Greco LPs: Body and Soul and My Last Night in Rome. Originally issued on Epic Records in 1962 and 1964, respectively, these 24 traditional pop and romantic Italian love songs include "Fly Me to the Moon," "Ciao, Ciao, Bambina," "Come Rain or Come Shine," and "My Last Night in ... see all copies from $12.18! new only from $12.18!

22 view cover	After the Lights Go Down Low and Much More!!! [UK] (2005) more music like this by Freda Payne By the year 2000, the golden oldie rotation of "Band of Gold" was the main thing keeping the memory of Freda Payne alive. Yet deep in the catalog of the classic jazz label Impulse lies this ambitious, largely successful recording of After the Lights Go Down Low, which shows just how diverse, and indeed brilliant, Freda Payne can be. The album is ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
23 view cover	Blue Vocals, Vol. 1 (1992) more music like this by Various Artists One of two stupendous vocal jazz collections on Blue Note, Blue Vocals, Vol. 1 concentrates on the men at the mic with 18 sides recorded mostly during the '50s and '60s. Variety is quite the thing, as the roster ranges from the venerable likes of Tony Bennett and Billy Eckstine to such blues giants as T-Bone Walker and Charles Brown; in between, ... see all copies from $18.50!
24 view cover	Bass Party (1993) more music like this by Def Bass Krew see all copies from $2.99!
25 view cover	Together (1964) more music like this by Marvin Gaye & Mary Wells The idea for the pairing of Marvin Gaye and Mary Wells came from Paul & Paula's success with "Hey Paula." The thinking was that if two unknowns could go number one pop, then two popular male and female singers would be a lock -- well, not quite. The first (and only) single release, "What's the Matter With You Baby" b/w "Once Upon a Time," was a ... see all copies from $12.00!
