1	A Jazz Portrait of Frank Sinatra (1959) more music like this by Oscar Peterson Pianist Oscar Peterson's Frank Sinatra tribute features his trio (with bassist Ray Brown and drummer Ed Thigpen) playing easy listening jazz versions of a dozen songs associated with the singer. The renditions are all under four minutes and are highlighted by "Come Dance with Me," "Just in Time," "I Get a Kick Out of You," and "How About You?" ... see all copies from $9.20! new only from $9.20!
2	Ultra-Lounge, Vol. 9: Cha-Cha De Amor (1996) more music like this by Various Artists Cha-cha music at its Whitest and most easy listening-friendly, recorded for Capitol in the 1950s and 1960s by Dean Martin, Julie London, Billy May, Martin Denny, Les Baxter, Walter Wanderley, and a number of other performers who are only coming to light in the lounge revival. Yma Sumac, Perez Prado, and Tito Rodriguez add a little (a very little) ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $9.25!
3	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Mel Tormé (2005) more music like this by Mel Tormé The 20th Century Masters series serves many purposes for all the varying artists with MCA affiliations, and with Mel Tormé, the spryest of jazz vocalists, the case is no different. With few hits to essay, compiler Ryan Null and producer Mike Ragogna instead chose to spotlight Tormé's range of abilities -- vocal acrobat and scatter, standards ... see all copies from $5.50! new only from $8.66!
4	Platinum Collection [EMI] (2004) more music like this by Frank Sinatra Short of purchasing the entire EMI/Capitol Frank Sinatra set, it is very hard to argue with this three-disc collection of stone classics from the key years of 1953-1961. There are 51 cuts here, all in pristine remastered sound, with Frank fronting the Nelson Riddle Orchestra. The set might come at a small price premium, but given the extensive ... see all copies from $27.44! new only from $27.44!
5	While the Music Plays On (1998) more music like this by Eddie Reed see all copies from $13.40! new only from $16.56!
6	Tone Poems 3: The Sounds of the Great Slide & Resophonic Instruments (2000) more music like this by David Grisman With Bob Brozman & Mike Auldridge Tone Poems 3 follows in the tradition of David Grisman's two previous Tone Poems albums, featuring vintage instruments and the musical styles for which they were designed. As this project was designed to show off slide and resophonic instruments, Grisman doesn't stick to just the mandolin. In addition to various steel and slide mandolins, the ... see all copies from $17.39! new only from $17.39!
7	TV Favorites [Collectables] (2001) more music like this by Perry Como From 1948, when Columbia Records introduced the LP, to 1955, the dominant format for the 33 1/3 rpm disc was a 10" version that usually held eight tracks. As of 1955, the better-known 12" version came to the fore. RCA Victor Records, which initially opposed the LP, had given in by 1952, when its leading artist Perry Como issued several of the 10" ... see all copies from $6.59! new only from $6.59!
8	The Big Band Swing Things (1999) more music like this by The Spitfire Band This is a partial reissue of a disc the Canadian-based Spitfire Band did for Columbia several years ago called In Flight; it's a partial reissue because not all the tunes from the original session have been included, thus providing a meager 40 minutes of music. It's a bit misleading not to include this information on the back cover of the album so ... see all copies from $11.00! new only from $14.50!
9	The Around the World! (1957) more music like this by Firehouse Five Plus Two For this CD reissue, the popular Firehouse Five Plus Two travels the world through such songs as "Japanese Sandman," "Panama," "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling," "It Happened In Monterey" and even "Lady of Spain." As was often the case with their records, the song titles are more exotic than the music, which is essentially straightforward Dixieland ... see all copies from $8.48!
10	Odyssey (1996) more music like this by Korla Pandit Two late '50s albums of Pandit going it alone on the pipe organ (Music of the Exotic East and Latin Holiday) are combined onto one disc on this CD reissue. It's not necessarily the cream of his many recordings, but you're looking for vintage Pandit in the digital format, it's the one that's most readily available. Richie Unterberger, All Music ... see all copies from $9.70! new only from $9.70!
11 view cover	Lands End (2001) more music like this by Charlie Shoemake Trios Vibraphonist Charlie Shoemake is a talented musician who has unfortunately slipped under the radar of far too many jazz critics and broadcasters, let alone getting sufficient exposure to the average jazz fan. Because many of his recordings, such as this CD, have been for smaller labels, this can explain (but not excuse) this oversight. Shoemake is ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
12 view cover	Clap Hands! Here Comes Rosie!/Fancy Meeting You Here (2000) more music like this by Rosemary Clooney Two of Clooney's late-'50s/early-'60s RCA Victor albums on one CD. Clap Hands! Here Comes Rosie! is an upbeat session from 1960 on which Clooney, superbly fronting a band conducted by Bob Thompson, tackles standards like "Give Me the Simple Life," "Bye Bye Blackbird," and "Makin' Whoopee." Fancy Meeting You Here is a 1958 duet album with Bing ... see all copies from $13.00! new only from $15.50!
13 view cover	Ladies & Gentlemen (1998) more music like this by Original Soundtrack see all copies from $21.80!
14 view cover	I Can't Give You Anything But Love (2003) more music like this by Mel Tormé The back cover of this Mel Tormé compilation from the Rajon label boasts "Recordings by Original Artist." A high claim indeed, and one that's borne out by each of these 20 tracks. No more information is given about the recordings, however, which date from the mid-to-late '40s, around the time of Tormé's hit "Careless Hands" (not included here). ... see all copies from $18.97!
15 view cover	Rendezvous (1969) more music like this by Bing Crosby & Rosemary Clooney Rendezvous is a truncated, re-sequenced version of the 1958 Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney album Fancy Meeting You Here, initially released on RCA's budget label Camden in 1969. The concept behind Fancy Meeting You Here was a combination of romance and travel, with songwriters Sammy Cahn and James Van Heusen contributing introductory and ... see all copies from $4.95! new only from $5.00!
16 view cover	Dance Parade/Your Dance Date with Tony Pastor (2002) more music like this by Tony Pastor Tony Pastor was one of the most animated personalities of the golden age of big bands. His vocals and sax routines were similar to Louis Prima's. Another similarity to Prima is Pastor's employment of a prominent featured female vocalist. While Prima's was Keely Smith, Pastor had Rosemary Clooney. Dance Parade/Your Dance Date includes 16 tracks ... see all copies from $9.82! new only from $9.82!
17 view cover	Live at Steinway Hall (2000) more music like this by Mike Jones Not every jazz artist who comes along needs to be an innovator -- very few of the jazzers who emerged in the 1980s and 1990s were -- but every improviser should try to develop his or her own sound. Though Mike Jones isn't innovative or groundbreaking, the acoustic swing pianist does have his own sound: one that combines a strong Oscar Peterson ... see all copies from $15.04! new only from $15.04!
18 view cover	In Hollywood, Vol. 1: 1930-1934 (2001) more music like this by Bing Crosby When Columbia Records released the double-LP Bing Crosby in Hollywood in the fall of 1967 as the flagship album in its Hall of Fame reissue series, it was the first comprehensive collection of Crosby recordings from the company's vaults. Crosby recorded for Columbia as singer with the Paul Whiteman Orchestra from 1928 to 1930, and his recordings ... see all copies from $12.15! new only from $12.15!
19 view cover	Put It There Pal: A Salute to the Kings of Comedy (1999) more music like this by Bob Hope and Friends see all copies from $21.02! new only from $21.02!
20	Music to Make You Misty (1957) more music like this by Jackie Gleason Music to Make You Misty was first released in 1957 with only eight songs. Later that year came an expanded version with eight more tracks. The Collectors Choice Music's Music for Lovers Only/Music to Make You Misty CD does not include all 16 songs. They left off two original bonus tracks, "Tenderly" and "You're the One I Care For," but also ... see all copies from $1.99!
21 view cover	The Singing Cowboy, Chapter Two (1998) more music like this by Gene Autry Taken right from the soundtracks of various films Autry starred in between 1937 and 1952, this isn't the place for new listeners to get acquainted with his work, as the fidelity isn't as good as what his studio recordings could offer. For specialists, though, it offers a number of classic cowboy tunes in their soundtrack versions, including "South ... see all copies from $7.05!
22 view cover	The Velvet Fog [ASV/Living Era] (2000) more music like this by Mel Tormé Covering the first five years of Mel Tormé's solo career (from 1944 to 1949), The Velvet Fog features 25 tracks of the vocalist at his dreamiest and most reminiscent of dreaded nicknames like the one found in the title and "The Singer with Gauze in His Jaws." The collection begins with his biggest hit of the era (1949's "Careless Hands"), then ... see all copies from $10.76! new only from $10.76!
23 view cover	20 Golden Greats more music like this by Frank Sinatra see all copies from $20.16!
24 view cover	Sound of the Movies (2000) more music like this by Bing Crosby Listed under Bing Crosby's name, though it includes contributions from many vocalists and bands, The Sound of the Movies features the complete songs from six different films, four from the early '30s (the first disc) and two from the mid-'40s (the second). The first film is 1930's King of Jazz, and from the songs within, it's surely no more a jazz ... see all copies from $24.95!
25 view cover	How the West Was Swung, Vol. 11: Jugglin' Cats (2002) more music like this by Tom Morrell & The Time Warp Tophands Jugglin' Cats is the 11th offering in Tom Morrell & the Time Warp Tophands' How the West Was Swung series. Just like the other albums in this series, this one is filled with plenty of pure and simple Western swing done in that impressive Tom Morrell style that keeps his fans coming back for more. On this recording, Morrell, who also served as ... see all copies from $14.56! new only from $14.56!
