1	Moonbeams (1962) more music like this by Bill Evans Trio Moonbeams was the first recording Bill Evans made after the death of his musical right arm, bassist Scott LaFaro. Indeed, in LaFaro, Evans found a counterpart rather than a sideman, and the music they made together over four albums showed it. Bassist Chuck Israels from Cecil Taylor and Bud Powell's bands took his place in the band with Evans and ... see all copies from $10.35! new only from $10.35!
2	Alone: Ballads for Solo Piano (2007) more music like this by André Previn see all copies from $11.44! new only from $14.78!
3	Those Were Our Songs: Music of World War II (2001) more music like this by Various Artists World War II and big-band pop-era compilations are released almost as regularly as Christmas albums, and the glut has caused more harm than good; it seems any good ones are quickly swallowed up by the racks full of short, ill-advised, uninformative collections. Though any single label could never do justice to the war years, with a little clever ... see all copies from $18.35! new only from $18.35!
4	The Academy Award Songs (1966) more music like this by Henry Mancini The title of Henry Mancini's 1966 double album Academy Award Songs is self-explanatory. The 31 tunes represent every Academy Award-winning song from 1934-1964, encompassing diverse material such as "High Noon," "Chim Chim Cher-ee," and "Lullaby of Broadway." Enthusiasts of film music will appreciate the reference value of Mancini's collection, and ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $18.37!
5	Sinatra and Strings (1962) more music like this by Frank Sinatra Sinatra and Strings, Frank Sinatra's first album with arranger Don Costa, is an exquisite, romantic collection of ballads and is one of his most sensual records. Costa has given the songs -- which consist entirely of standards -- exceedingly lush, heavily orchestrated arrangements that sound like updated, contemporary versions of Axel Stordahl's ... see all copies from $9.00!
6	Shearing Piano (1956) more music like this by George Shearing This is one of the earliest releases to feature George Shearing exclusively as a solo pianist, and the CD reissue of the long unavailable LP adds ten previously unissued tracks. He is rather surprisingly low-key on most of these interpretations, even though they are mostly ballads, possibly because of Capitol's original marketing concept. "Stella ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $14.22!
7	Adventures in Jazz (1961) more music like this by Stan Kenton This excellent outing by the 1961 edition of Stan Kenton's orchestra has one classic (Bill Holman's arrangement of "Malaguena"), a superior solo by altoist Gabe Baltazar on "Stairway to the Stars," a feature for Ray Starling's Mellophonium ("Misty"), a good workout by veteran tenor Sam Donahue on "Body and Soul," Holman's reworking of "Limehouse ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $10.79!
8	The Lady Wants to Know (1994) more music like this by Laura Fygi Singer Laura Fygi is in excellent form on this set of bossa novas. Due to the sweetening of a string section and some safe arrangements, the music is quite accessible, if not too challenging. Fygi's voice is lovely and she could excel in a much more sparse setting in the future if given the opportunity. She is ably assisted by a variety of guests, ... see all copies from $7.95! new only from $9.74!
9	Something Wonderful: Bryn Terfel Sings Rodgers & Hammerstein (1996) more music like this by Bryn Terfel The musicals of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II are neo-operettas that provide many opportunities for big baritone voices to strut their stuff. In the original productions, Alfred Drake (Oklahoma!), John Raitt (Carousel), and opera singer Ezio Pinza (South Pacific) made the most of those opportunities in songs like "Oh, What a Beautiful ... see all copies from $3.74! new only from $14.78!
10	Love Is Here to Stay (2005) more music like this by Bill Charlap & Sandy Stewart It is unusual to hear a son and his mother record together in a jazz setting, but this collection of ballads by Bill Charlap and Sandy Stewart is a stunning duo date. Charlap is best known as the leader of a superb piano trio, along with having worked extensively with Gerry Mulligan and Phil Woods, but he may find himself in great demand by other ... see all copies from $6.09! new only from $15.65!
11 view cover	Oscar Winners: The Lyrics of Oscar Hammerstein II (1997) more music like this by Barbara Cook One of the reasons that Barbara Cook has been a success in her second career as a concert and nightclub singer, after a first career as a Broadway musical star, is, ironically, that she has so completely reinvented herself. She still sings show music, by and large, but unlike other stage veterans who have moved to the concert hall, she isn't still ... see all copies from $5.41! new only from $12.75!
12 view cover	A Night Out With Verve (2000) more music like this by Various Artists A Night Out With Verve highlights five decades of remarkable jazz taken from the Verve catalog, spread out over four discs titled "Wining," "Dining," "Dancing," and "Romancing." This budget-priced box set includes 65 performances from jazz luminaries including Oscar Peterson, Sonny Rollins, Michel Legrand, Sarah Vaughan, Stan Getz, Louis Armstrong ... see all copies from $15.98! new only from $24.50!
13 view cover	The Target (2007) more music like this by Kate McGarry There are some people in the jazz world who just plain don't understand subtlety. That's why trumpeters Miles Davis and Chet Baker received a lot of negative reviews from critics who couldn't figure out why they didn't sound more like Fats Navarro; it's why Paul Desmond was criticized for not playing his alto aggressively à la Phil Woods or Jackie ... see all copies from $5.23! new only from $13.15!
14 view cover	Sweet and Hot (1953) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
15 view cover	Jazz 'Round Midnight: Astrud Gilberto (1996) more music like this by Astrud Gilberto see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
16 view cover	In Love Again (2002) more music like this by Stacey Kent Stacey Kent is back, with her regular combo, for an engaging tribute to Richard Rodgers. In addition to routinely covered songs like "It Never Entered My Mind" and "Bewitched," the Britain-based vocalist looks to the South Pacific book and comes up with two items seldom performed in a jazz context -- "I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair" ... see all copies from $15.83! new only from $15.83!
17 view cover	Beautiful Baby (1991) more music like this by Nancy Lamott This album, Nancy LaMott's first, was originally released in 1991 and then reissued in 1996, shortly after her tragic death from uterine cancer. Even at this, the outset of her recording career, she shows all the moves needed to be a top-of-the-list cabaret singer. Not content to simply recite the story of the lyrics, each track is a separate ... see all copies from $11.31! new only from $11.31!
18 view cover	The Complete Roost Recordings (1950) more music like this by Stan Getz The Complete Roost Recordings is a three-disc, 59-track box set that contains all of the recordings Stan Getz made for the Roost Record label in the '50s. The set includes all of his officially released sessions -- including the date led by guitarist Johnny Smith, the live performances with Count Basie, and a full disc of live performances with ... see all copies from $34.53! new only from $34.53!
19 view cover	Music for Lovers (2006) more music like this by Stan Getz The 14 cuts on Stan Getz's Music for Lovers -- as part of Blue Note's eight-part series -- were all recorded between 1950 and '53. With the exception of "Early Autumn," on which Getz is a member of Woody Herman & His Orchestra, and "Easy Living," as a member of Count Basie's band, these were all small group sessions, quartets. and quintets. There ... see all copies from $10.79! new only from $10.79!
20 view cover	Jazz Moods: Sounds of Winter (2004) more music like this by Various Artists A sampler of mellow jazz from Concord, Sounds of Winter is full of chillout tracks for soothing those jangled nerves after a drive home on icy roads during rush hour. The compiler must have been thinking about global warming, since most of the cuts deal with rain rather than snow, and a resigned grayness is featured on most of these selections, ... see all copies from $4.18! new only from $4.18!
21 view cover	Academy Award Winners (1972) more music like this by Frank Sinatra see all copies from $12.49!
22 view cover	State Fair (1962) more music like this by Original Soundtrack This archival release presents material from the soundtracks of the two movie musical versions of State Fair, which contained songs written by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II. In the 1940s, Rodgers and Hammerstein were approached by 20th Century-Fox about doing a musical version of the 1932 novel written by Philip Stong. They wrote six ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $16.06!
23 view cover	Jazz Vocalists: Hear and Now (2006) more music like this by Various Artists Jazz Vocalists: Hear and Now is a fine sampling of jazz and pop artists interpreting contemporary material on disc one and jazz standards on disc two.

24 view cover	It Might as Well Be Spring [RVG Edition] (2006) more music like this by Ike Quebec Working with the same quartet that cut Heavy Soul -- organist Freddie Roach, bassist Milt Hinton and drummer Al Harewood -- Ike Quebec recorded another winning hard bop album with It Might as Well Be Spring. In many ways, the record is a companion piece to Heavy Soul. Since the two albums were recorded so close together, it's not surprising that ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $10.79!
25 view cover	16 Most Requested Songs (1949) more music like this by Sarah Vaughan 16 Most Requested Songs is a midline-priced collection that spotlights many of Sarah Vaughan's best-known and most popular performances for Columbia Records, including "Black Coffee," "Summertime," "The Nearness of You," "Goodnight My Love," "Come Rain or Come Shine," "Thinking of You," "Vanity," "Pinky," "Sinner or Saint," "My Tormented Heart" ... see all copies from $11.80! new only from $11.80!
