3	Lush Life: The Music of Billy Strayhorn (1991) more music like this by Joe Henderson With the release of this CD, the executives at Verve and their marketing staff proved that yes, indeed, jazz can sell. The veteran tenor Joe Henderson has had a distinctive sound and style of his own ever since he first entered the jazz major leagues yet he has spent long periods in relative obscurity before reaching his current status as a jazz ... see all copies from $3.93! new only from $13.71!
4	The Great London Concerts (1963) more music like this by Duke Ellington This previously issued material (released on a single CD by Music Masters) features the Duke Ellington Orchestra during a very busy era. The veteran musicians were getting older but their very individual voices were still powerful, and Ellington was far from running out of gas at this point. The five standards taken from the earlier performance ... see all copies from $1.99!
5	Plays the Music of Billy Strayhorn (1987) more music like this by Marian McPartland Pianist Marian McPartland has always had an affinity for the compositions of Billy Strayhorn, giving his songs the right amount of sensitivity and swing. For this quartet session with altoist Jerry Dodgion, bassist Steve LaSpina, and drummer Joey Baron, McPartland explores ten of Strayhorn's best-known originals, including "Isfahan," "Lotus ... see all copies from $6.25! new only from $10.38!

7	The Best of the Duke Ellington Centennial Edition (1999) more music like this by Duke Ellington This latest compilation of some of Ellington's most popular, enduring, and important RCA Victor sides from a period of 40 years (October 26, 1927, to August 30, 1967) consists of 18 tracks, drawn from the remastered tracks on BMG's 24-CD Ellington Centennial box. That's hardly enough to address the range of changes in Ellington's style, but it ... see all copies from $4.95! new only from $11.06!
8	All Star Road Band, Vol. 2 (1957) more music like this by Duke Ellington All Star Road Band, Vol. 2 delivers more of the lively performance that Ellington and his stars -- who include trumpeters Cootie Williams and Cat Anderson, trombonists Lawrence Brown and Buster Cooper, saxophonists Johnny Hodges, Russell Procope, and Harry Carney, and vocalist Ray Mance -- gave at a dance in Chicago. This volume includes fresh ... see all copies from $7.45! new only from $12.99!
9	The Far East Suite (1966) more music like this by Duke Ellington Duke Ellington could have been forgiven if, by the time he was 67, he had gradually lost his creative desire not to mention his writing skills. But his genius never dimmed as witness the new music ("The Far East Suite" and "Ad Lib on Nippon") on this superb set. "The Far East Suite" is in reality eight separate compositions of which the beautiful ... see all copies from $3.68! new only from $10.50!
10	Around the World for Lovers (2006) more music like this by Various Artists This edition of Verve's For Lovers series combines 11 classic themes of amoré and travel, featuring such legendary jazz vocalists as Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong, Sarah Vaughan, Blossom Dearie, Arthur Prysock, Carmen McRae, and Brazilian pop/jazz chanteuse Astrud Gilberto. The remaining tracks are instrumental versions of "Corcovado" ... see all copies from $10.38! new only from $10.38!
11 view cover	The Banff Sessions (2002) more music like this by John Stowell John Stowell is one of the better, but little heard, jazz guitarists on the scene today, having spent time working relentlessly through education programs, tours, and artist-in-residence status at any number of institutes over the years. During the summer of 1998, he was teaching and performing at the Banff Centre in Western Canada for a session, ... see all copies from $13.33! new only from $13.33!
12 view cover	Planet Jazz (1998) more music like this by Johnny Hodges Planet Jazz is a name for a BMG/RCA budget line jazz series, inviting confusion with a minimum of two combos using the expansive phrase as a band name. "Planet jazz" may also be regarded as some sort of philosophy involving world control, meanwhile many listeners find the entire genre out of control, as if nobody had taken the time to "plan it" at ... see all copies from $7.34! new only from $7.34!
13 view cover	Something to Live for: The Music of Billy Strayhorn (1987) more music like this by Art Farmer This very logical set is a real gem. The lyrical flügelhornist Art Farmer and his quintet (which consists of tenor saxophonist Clifford Jordan, pianist James Williams, bassist Rufus Reid, and drummer Marvin "Smitty" Smith) interpret seven of Billy Strayhorn's compositions. Highlights include "Isfahan," "Johnny Come Lately," "Raincheck," and the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
14 view cover	Thank You, Duke! Our Tribute To Ellington (1999) more music like this by Arkadia Jazz All-Stars Everyone and their uncles were busy cranking out Ellington albums in 1999 -- usually with the same imaginative titles ("A Tribute, "Our Tribute, " etc., etc.) -- but this anthology has quite a few individual coups that stand out from the pack. Benny Golson is wonderfully loose and swinging on "Don't Get Around Much Anymore" yet manages an old-time ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
15 view cover	Thank You, Joe!: Our Tribute to Joe Henderson (2000) more music like this by Arkadia Jazz All-Stars This 2000 release titled Thank You, Joe! Our Tribute to Joe Henderson represents Arkadia's fourth in a series of "tributes" to jazz artists who have made a conspicuous difference to this constantly evolving musical art form. On this recording, seasoned veterans such as trumpeter Randy Brecker and pianist Joanne Brackeen coalesce with some of the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
16 view cover	The Definitive Joe Henderson (2002) more music like this by Joe Henderson Tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson recorded consistently for over four decades, starting with his early-'60s Blue Note sides through the Milestone years in the '70s and (along with Dexter Gordon) as elder statesmen of jazz in the '80s and early '90s. With so much quality material to choose from, the annotators of The Definitive Joe Henderson had ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
17 view cover	Melody from the Sky (2000) more music like this by Scott Robinson Known as a multi-talented/stylistic woodwindist, Robinson concentrates on the C-Melody saxophone for this CD, which makes it not only a rarity, but an event unto itself. He also showcases a four-pitch selection: organ based, string quartet flavored, straight-ahead swing, and guitar-oriented jams with either James Chirillo or Marty Grosz on four ... see all copies from $8.82! new only from $8.82!
18 view cover	Brainstorm (2003) more music like this by Keith Oxman On this enjoyable set, tenor saxophonist Keith Oxman leads an excellent hard bop quartet comprised of musicians based in Colorado. Oxman's playing is a little reminiscent, in spots, of Hank Mobley, although his sound and style are fairly original. The rhythm section players (best-known overall is pianist Chip Stephens) all have an extensive list ... see all copies from $12.18! new only from $12.18!
19 view cover	Satin Doll [RCA] (1957) more music like this by Duke Ellington & His Orchestra This French CD duplicates five of the selections from All Star Road Band (Doctor Jazz), a dance date by Duke Ellington's orchestra in 1957. The remainder of this set has seven selections from a Chicago concert of 1964 which, although adding little to the Ellington legacy, is quite enjoyable on its own terms. Scott Yanow, All Music Guide see all copies from $12.49! new only from $16.31!
20 view cover	Barjazz (1994) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $21.16! new only from $21.16!
21 view cover	Lush Life: The Billy Strayhorn Songbook (1950) more music like this by Various Artists As an informal soundtrack for his revealing biography of Billy Strayhorn, Lush Life, David Hajdu selected and annotated the tracks for this rambling dig through the PolyGram archives. In doing so, Hajdu ranges far afield in date and idiom, yet the overall impression is amazingly consistent Strayhorn as an elegant yet haunted musical figure whose ... see all copies from $7.12!
22 view cover	New York Sessions (2000) more music like this by Rory Snyder Quintet see all copies from $11.12! new only from $11.12!
23 view cover	Dialogues of the Heart (2003) more music like this by Larry Koonse Dave Koonse and his son Larry Koonse have both been major guitarists in Los Angeles for quite some time, appearing on a countless number of sessions. They recorded an LP together for the Dobre label back in 1978, and Dialogues of the Heart (recorded in 1997 but not issued until 2003) was their long overdue encore. These guitar duets show how ... see all copies from $8.98! new only from $13.33!
24 view cover	The Herb Geller Quartet (1993) more music like this by Herb Geller Quartet This quartet outing with pianist Tom Ranier, bassist John Leitham, and drummer Louis Bellson is one of altoist Herb Geller's finest recordings. Geller, whose long period in Europe has resulted in him being somewhat forgotten in the U.S., has actually improved through the years and was even stronger in the mid-'90s than he had been in the mid-'50s. ... see all copies from $14.47! new only from $14.47!
25 view cover	John's Bunch (1975) more music like this by John Bunch This CD brings back a rare set originally made in 1975 for Harry Lim's Famous Door label. Veteran swing pianist John Bunch was making his debut as a leader and he jams four standards and his own "John's Bunch" and "Cecily" in a quintet with tenor saxophonist Al Cohn, trombonist Urbie Green, bassist Milt Hinton, and drummer Mousie Alexander. The CD ... see all copies from $12.70! new only from $12.70!
