1	Open Fire, Two Guitars (1959) more music like this by Johnny Mathis The open fire of the title is a warm hearth, not an invitation to gunplay. On this 1959 album, Johnny Mathis creates an atmosphere of fireside intimacy by dispensing with his usual orchestral accompaniment so that the purity of his voice entices the listener's full attention. Al Caiola and Tony Mattola play the two guitars that supplement Mathis' ... see all copies from $2.49! new only from $5.33!
2	Oscar Peterson Plays the Cole Porter Songbook (1959) more music like this by Oscar Peterson Peterson reworks Cole Porter and says something original and distinctive. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $7.99! new only from $13.71!
3	A Little Moonlight (2003) more music like this by Dianne Reeves With the meteoric success of Norah Jones' debut in the early 2000s, the message was clear: there's a real hunger for straightforward tunes with minimal froufrou. Jones' producer, Arif Mardin, has assembled another likely hit with A Little Moonlight, a collection of appealing standards. Empathically supported by Dianne Reeves' working trio, every ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $8.00!

5	Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim (1967) more music like this by Frank Sinatra By 1967, bossa nova had become quite popular within jazz and traditional pop audiences, yet Frank Sinatra hadn't attempted any Brazil-influenced material. Sinatra decided to record a full-fledged bossa nova album with the genre's leading composer, Antonio Carlos Jobim. Arranged by Claus Ogerman and featuring Jobim on guitar and backing vocals, ... see all copies from $8.74!
6	Dream Dancing: Songs of Cole Porter (2001) more music like this by Beegie Adair This straight-ahead Cole Porter tribute was one of the first three releases from Hillsboro, a Nashville-based label that got off the ground in early 2001. (The other two were Antoine Silverman's Blue Moods and Jack Jezzro's Jazz Elegance.) Pianist Beegie Adair certainly knows her way around these songs, and she's aided expertly by bassist Roger ... see all copies from $11.38! new only from $11.38!
7	Sings the Cole Porter Song Book [Vol. 2] (1956) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald Ella Fitzgerald had the ability to personalize some of the most recognizable material from the foremost songwriters in American popular music history. In this instance, the combination of Cole Porter's words and Fitzgerald's interpretation of them created one of the most sought after sessions embraced by jazz and pop fans alike, transcending ... see all copies from $5.85! new only from $10.23!
8	Sinatra's Swingin' Session!!! And More (1961) more music like this by Frank Sinatra Sinatra's Swingin' Session!!! And More is a fast, driving album, the speediest and hardest swing collection Frank Sinatra ever recorded. The majority of the album is a re-recording of six of the eight songs from his first LP, Sing and Dance with Frank Sinatra, as rearranged by Nelson Riddle. Sinatra performed the songs twice as fast as was ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $15.11!
9	Live at the Algonquin (1986) more music like this by Michael Feinstein Feinstein in his element. The limitations in his vocal range are made up for by an evident understanding of and enthusiasm for the material, starting with Ray Jessel's "Wanna Sing a Show Tune." William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.99! new only from $6.30!
10	Blue Condition (1996) more music like this by Bobby Caldwell It's a tribute to Bobby Caldwell's consummate songwriting skills that his three original compositions -- including the previously recorded, melancholy would-be classic "Stuck On You" -- fit in perfectly alongside standards by the likes of Cole Porter and Sammy Cahn/Jimmy Van Heusen on the very tradition-minded Blue Condition. Best known for ... see all copies from $3.95! new only from $3.95!
11 view cover	The Complete Quartets with Sonny Clark (1961) more music like this by Grant Green & Sonny Clark Mosaic released a four-disc box set titled The Complete Blue Note With Sonny Clark in 1991, rounding up everything that the guitarist and pianist recorded together between 1961 and 1962. Blue Note's 1997 version of the set, The Complete Quartets With Sonny Clark, trims Mosaic's collection by two discs, offering only the quartet sessions (the Ike ... see all copies from $21.44! new only from $21.44!
12 view cover	Sings Cole Porter (1990) more music like this by Dionne Warwick see all copies from $18.74!
13 view cover	Rhapsody in Rhythm (1962) more music like this by Ray Conniff Rhapsody in Rhythm is one of several albums in Ray Conniff's "In Rhythm" series. The very concept of the album reveals Conniff's sense of humor and calculated middlebrow approach to music-making as he pairs the complex, linear melodies of rhapsodies with the pop and youth orientation suggested by "rhythm." Conniff regarded Rhapsody in Rhythm as a ... see all copies from $3.32!
14 view cover	Steppin' Out (1993) more music like this by Tony Bennett Bennett's tribute to songs that Fred Astaire made famous (including standards by Gershwin, Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, and Jerome Kern) is as strong a record as anything he has made recently, including the acclaimed Perfectly Frank.

18 view cover	Sings the Cole Porter Song Book (1956) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald A striking two-CD set featuring arguably history's finest jazz singer singing some of the best-written American pop standards on one of jazz's most prolific labels. Ella Fitzgerald shines as the perfect interpreter of Cole Porter's bittersweet love songs on these 35 tracks from the Verve archives. Recorded and released on LP in 1956, Ella is ... see all copies from $11.70! new only from $29.87!
19 view cover	Night and Day: The Cole Porter Songbook (1952) more music like this by Various Artists With their vast back catalog of classic vocal sides, the Verve label has been releasing a seemingly endless line of songbook collections featuring a who's who of jazz greats. Irving Berlin, Gershwin, Ellington, and Rodgers & Hart have all been feted. Now it's Cole Porter's turn. Over the course of the 17 chestnuts heard here, the likes of Fred ... see all copies from $8.90! new only from $10.29!
20 view cover	Moodsville (2002) more music like this by Bennie Wallace Bennie Wallace is unlike any tenor saxophonist, often alternating between a soulful, fat tone (which is very similar to Ben Webster's approach) and sudden unpredictable jumps (no doubt inspired by alto saxophonist Eric Dolphy). Joined by an outstanding rhythm section consisting of pianist Mulgrew Miller, bassist Peter Washington, and drummer Lewis ... see all copies from $10.68! new only from $15.93!
21 view cover	Songs Without Words (2001) more music like this by Fred Hersch Fred Hersch's sixth release for Nonesuch is a three-CD set, with separate volumes focusing on original works, classic jazz, and, finally, songs by Cole Porter. His suite of six "Songs Without Words" can't help but highlight his background in classical music, but his lyrical pieces still have the "sound of surprise" that differentiates jazz from ... see all copies from $22.40! new only from $31.39!
22 view cover	Best of the Verve Song Books: Love Songs (1956) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald Are you one of those people who can't walk through the jazz section without mooning over the lavishly packaged and heart-droppingly expensive 16-disc Complete Ella Fitzgerald Song Books set? If so, you're not alone, and Verve knows it. So to keep you from bemoaning your fate, the company has been releasing single-disc compilations drawn from the ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
23 view cover	The Complete Ella Fitzgerald Song Books (1956) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald This admittedly pricey -- but by all means mandatory -- Grammy Award-winning box set is the final word on the "songbooks" recorded by Ella Fitzgerald between 1956 and 1964. In order of their initial release, contained within are Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Cole Porter Song Book (1956), Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Rodgers & Hart Song Book (1956), Ella ... see all copies from $238.08! new only from $238.08!
24 view cover	Cole After Midnight (2001) more music like this by Marcus Roberts Trio Marcus Roberts' Cole After Midnight is actually a tribute to both the terrific pianist/singer Nat "King" Cole and the great composer Cole Porter. The pianist also wrote extensive liner notes explaining how his concept evolved and how it was achieved musically. Roberts avoids the predictable path in honoring Nat King Cole, covering songs both from ... see all copies from $5.33! new only from $5.33!
25 view cover	Anything Goes, With Yo Yo Ma (1992) more music like this by Stephane Grappelli with Yo-Yo Ma It's obvious that this CD was marketed to the classical crowd first by its packaging and use of CBS rather than the Columbia label. Don't let that fool you; this is a jazz session with the renowned classical cellist Yo-Yo Ma joining the fun. The emphasis is on the music of Cole Porter, which was very familiar ground to Grappelli long before the ... see all copies from $10.90! new only from $11.06!
