1	The Essence of Nancy Wilson: Four Decades of Music (2002) more music like this by Nancy Wilson Nancy Wilson has recorded a lot of material in several different styles, so an accurate summary is hard to achieve -- even on a collection the size of the four-disc The Essence of Nancy Wilson. Perhaps realizing this, the compilers have ditched the traditional chronological progression of a box set and instead dedicated each disc to a specific ... see all copies from $52.93! new only from $52.93!
2	Ballads (1962) more music like this by John Coltrane Quartet Throughout John Coltrane's discography there are a handful of decisive and controversial albums that split his listening camp into factions. Generally, these occur in his later-period works such as Om and Ascension, which push into some pretty heady blowing. As a contrast, Ballads is often criticized as too easy and as too much of a compromise ... see all copies from $6.29! new only from $7.89!
3	My Funny Valentine: The Rodgers & Hart Songbook (1993) more music like this by Various Artists One of the choicest of Verve's many venerable songbook releases, My Funny Valentine spotlights some of the jazz canon's best moments in song; and how could it be otherwise, considering the program features the core of Rodgers & Hart's monumental song canon? That's why it's an all-star affair, with such singing royalty as Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah ... see all copies from $5.55! new only from $10.14!
4	The Impulse! Albums, Vol. 1 (2007) more music like this by John Coltrane As part of its Originals series, the Verve Music Group has begun reissuing -- at a budget price -- the Impulse! recordings of John Coltrane in box set form, as well as single-disc titles. This first volume focuses on some seminal entries from 1961 and 1962. In chronological order they are Africa/Brass, Live at the Village Vanguard, Coltrane, Duke ... see all copies from $18.69! new only from $37.65!
5	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 $9.62! new only from $14.31!
6	Close to You and More (1957) more music like this by Frank Sinatra Close to You is one of Frank Sinatra's most gentle and intimate albums, and that is due in no small part to the Hollywood String Quartet, which forms the core of the album's instrumental support. It also was one of the most difficult to record, taking eight months and five different sessions. Certainly, it is one of the most unusual and special of ... see all copies from $4.95! new only from $14.43!
7	Ballads: Remembering John Coltrane (2001) more music like this by Karrin Allyson Jazz vocalist Karrin Allyson strikes a sentimental chord with this super fine 2001 release, inspired by tenor sax titan John Coltrane's infamous Ballads LP. The diva exhibits her near flawless phraseology and alluring vigor throughout these wonderfully executed pieces. Allyson also receives exemplary support from what some might consider an all ... see all copies from $4.95! new only from $10.29!
8	Sketches of Dreams (1994) more music like this by David Sanchez David Sanchez, who has an appealing tone on the tenor (at times hinting at Joe Henderson and Stanley Turrentine), matches well with trumpeter Roy Hargrove and the creative Latin percussionists during the first two numbers. However, at that point Hargrove disappears (only popping up on "Sketches of Dreams") and the percussionists are often de ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $55.45!

10	Ballads [Bonus CD] (1962) more music like this by John Coltrane Throughout John Coltrane's discography there are a handful of decisive and controversial albums that split his listening camp into factions. Generally, these occur in his later-period works such as Om and Ascension, which push into some pretty heady blowing. As a contrast, Ballads is often criticized as too easy, and as too much of a compromise ... see all copies from $13.70! new only from $17.04!
11 view cover	Live (1981) more music like this by Pharoah Sanders This album features Pharoah Sanders playing some no-nonsense tenor in a quartet with pianist John Hicks, bassist Walter Booker, and drummer Idris Muhammad. Sanders performs "It's Easy to Remember" (in a style very reminiscent of early-'60s John Coltrane), an original blues, and two of his compositions, including the passionate "You've Got to Have ... see all copies from $10.76! new only from $10.76!
12 view cover	Complete Savoy Master Takes (1998) more music like this by Erroll Garner Does it get any better than this? The nearly two hours of music on this double CD set covers Erroll Garner's complete released output for Savoy from January 1945 -- where he was part of the Slam Stewart Quartet -- through the summer of 1949. All of it has been transferred off original acetate sources and very carefully CEDAR-ized to bring out the ... see all copies from $26.31! new only from $26.31!
13 view cover	So Smooth/We Get Letters (2001) more music like this by Perry Como So Smooth from 1955 and We Get Letters from 1957 were Perry Como's first two albums to be recorded for the 12" LP format, so Collectables Records' pairing of the two on a single CD is appropriate. At the time, the album market was viewed as being entirely different from the singles market, so these recordings do not feature Como's hit singles of ... see all copies from $13.37! new only from $13.37!

15 view cover	4 to Go!/The Light Fantastic (1998) more music like this by Andre Previn In 1998, Collectables released 4 to Go!/The Light Fantastic, which contained two complete albums -- 4 to Go! (1963, originally released on Columbia) and The Light Fantastic (1963, also originally released on Columbia) -- by jazz pianist Andre Previn on one compact disc.

17 view cover	When Boy Meets Girl/Wish Upon a Star (2003) more music like this by Peggy King & Jerry Vale The Collectables reissue of two mid-'50s LPs by Peggy King reveals a singer who possessed a cute soprano voice with the character and subtle strength of Debbie Reynolds. The first of two concept LPs, 1955's Girl Meets Boy pairs King with Jerry Vale for a musical dissection of a love affair, beginning with King's sweetly innocent "The Boy Next Door ... see all copies from $12.15! new only from $12.15!
18 view cover	Phineas' Rainbow/While My Lady Sleeps (1999) more music like this by Phineas Newborn This compilation features Phineas Newborn Jr. in two separate settings. Phineas' Rainbow, a collection of solo, trio, and quartet tracks, is the superior session of the two, and it was only the pianist's second full album as a leader. Already he shows a surprising maturity at the keyboard, whether covering standards like "Angel Eyes" and "Autumn ... see all copies from $11.26! new only from $11.26!
19 view cover	The Complete London Sessions (1999) more music like this by Fred Astaire This British three-CD set breaks down into two distinct parts: Fred Astaire's first recordings and his last. The first disc brings together 19 recordings made for the British labels HMV and Columbia between 1923 and 1933. These are recordings made when Astaire was appearing in stage shows in London, and on eight of them he duets with his sister ... see all copies from $8.80! new only from $8.80!

21 view cover	Broadway [Soho] (2004) more music like this by Various Artists Since the mid-'90s, the British label JAY Productions Ltd., under the aegis of producer John Yap, has been turning out studio cast recordings of well-known stage musicals, frequently using performers from the Broadway and West End theaters. While some of these recordings have been better than others, their drawing card tends to be the claim that ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $10.38!
22 view cover	Lady in Satin [SACD] (1958) more music like this by Billie Holiday This is the most controversial of all Billie Holiday records. "Lady Day" herself said that this session (which finds her accompanied by the Ray Ellis Orchestra was her personal favorite, and many listeners have found her emotional versions of such songs as "I'm a Fool to Want You," "You Don't Know What Love Is," "Glad to Be Unhappy," and ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $20.75!
23 view cover	Bing Crosby Kraft Shows, Vol. 1 (1999) more music like this by Bing Crosby see all copies from $2.99! new only from $5.00!
24 view cover	Easy to Remember (1953) more music like this by Mel Tormé This brief Hindsight CD (under 36 minutes) alternates Mel Torme performances from 1953 with those from 1963; the backing personnel is not known in both cases. The previously unreleased material mostly emphasizes ballads and only three of the 16 selections are over 21 minutes. Tormé sounds fine, sticking primarily to the melody, but since he has ... see all copies from $5.96! new only from $5.96!
25 view cover	Jazz 'Round Midnight: Sarah Vaughan (1992) more music like this by Sarah Vaughan Joining her equally stunning Compact Jazz entry, Sarah Vaughan's Jazz 'Round Midnight disc makes for a very fine introduction to the singer's extensive catalog. As is the case with the entire 'Round Midnight series, the emphasis here is on the ballad-heavy, after-hours end of the spectrum, which Vaughan handled with the utmost class and skill. The ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.14!
