Definitive Collection (2006) more music like this

by George Gershwin

The musical legacy of George and Ira Gershwin is truly an astounding one. Together they wrote the music for a dozen stage shows and four films beginning with 1924's Lady Be Good (which gave us "Fascinating Rhythm"), and several individual songs from this writing and composing partnership have become undisputed classics in the Great American ...

Mastercuts (2007) more music like this

by Oscar Peterson

As Oscar Peterson passed away late in 2007, this will likely be the first of many collections of his work issued posthumously. But there are many that preceded his passing, and in that vein, they keep on coming.

A Jazz Hour with Gershwin, Ellington and More (2006) more music like this

In the Beginning (1970) more music like this

by The Moody Blues

A deliberately misleading attempt to resell the "Go Now"-era R&B material in a psychedelic style package. Protests from the band, coupled with a nasty reaction from fans, resulted in its being deleted very quickly, making it a genuine rarity. Bruce Eder, All Music Guide
