1	Yo! Bobby (2007) more music like this by Waverly Seven Most of the time when a tribute is paid to a singer, the resulting project emphasizes vocals. Yo! Bobby, a two-CD tribute to Bobby Darin, is quite unusual in that no singing takes place. The Waverly Seven, a septet with two keyboards and three horns, performs 24 songs that Darin had recorded, including some of his hits (though, surprisingly, not ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $23.25!
2	The Wind (1957) more music like this by Don Nelson Don Nelson had an appealing voice, but he takes these dozen selections (mostly veteran standards) pretty straight, sticking to simple interpretations of the melodies. He plays a couple of the themes on recorder and the trio (pianist Jimmy Rowles, bassist Leroy Vinnegar and drummer Stan Levey) is fine in support, but this set is only of limited ... see all copies from $12.45! new only from $12.45!
3	The Sound of the Johnny Smith Guitar (1961) more music like this by Johnny Smith When cool-toned guitarist Johnny Smith left New York for Colorado in the mid-'50s, he didn't hang up his guitar. He continued to play locally and make occasional trips back to the Big Apple to record. The two sessions included on The Sound of the Johnny Smith Guitar were the results of two trips in 1960 and 1961. Just about everything goes right ... see all copies from $9.71! new only from $9.71!
4	Doin' Allright [Bonus Tracks] (2004) more music like this by Dexter Gordon The title of this Blue Note set fit perfectly at the time, for tenor saxophonist Dexter Gordon was making the first of three successful comebacks. Largely neglected during the 1950s, Gordon's Blue Note recordings (of which this was the first) led to his rediscovery. The tenor is teamed with the young trumpeter Freddie Hubbard, pianist Horace ... see all copies from $10.73! new only from $10.73!
5	The Eminent Jay Jay Johnson, Vol. 2 [Remastered] (2001) more music like this by J.J. Johnson J.J. Johnson's Blue Note sides from the first half of the '50s represent some of the best bop of the day. And for listeners interested in just picking up one of the trombonist's early dates, this second installment of his Eminent J.J. Johnson series is the one to get. Including fewer alternate takes and more material than Vol. 1, this 15-track set ... see all copies from $10.79! new only from $10.79!
6	Young Sassy (2001) more music like this by Sarah Vaughan From the start of her career, Sarah Vaughan had a wondrous voice. She never declined and her voice remained a miracle throughout her career. She learned about bop phrasing during 1943-1944 when she was with the orchestras of Earl Hines and Billy Eckstine (singing alongside Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker) and, although she would perform many ... see all copies from $21.39! new only from $21.39!
7	Together Again: Essential Gold (2004) more music like this by Dick Haymes/Helen Forrest see all copies from $9.38! new only from $9.38!
8	The Best of Dexter Gordon: The Blue Note Years (1961) more music like this by Dexter Gordon Blue Note's handy roundup series moves on to chronicle the '60s label stint of a bebop veteran. Returning to the States from Europe to cut several dates, Dexter Gordon managed to produce some of his best stuff for Alfred Lion's venerable jazz company. This fine disc features many of the highlights, including both breezy swingers and dusky ballads. ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
9	The Jazz Messengers [Columbia] (1956) more music like this by Art Blakey This CD reissue brings back the music on the earlier LP titled Art Blakey with the Original Jazz Messengers, plus five other selections (just one of which is an alternate) from the same two sessions that were formerly out on imported sets; "Deciphering the Message" was previously unreleased altogether. These were the last recordings by the Art ... see all copies from $5.11! new only from $5.11!
10	It's Magic: Her Early Years at Warner Brothers (1998) more music like this by Doris Day Of the seventeen performances from 1948-49 here -- all taken from the films Romance on the High Seas, My Dream Is Yours, and It's a Great Feeling -- only two ("It's Magic" and the title medley from Romance on the High Seas) were released before this compilation was assembled. That makes of it substantial interest to Day fans and soundtrack ... see all copies from $19.61! new only from $19.61!
11 view cover	The Magic of Sarah Vaughan [Prism] (2002) more music like this by Sarah Vaughan The advantage of the 50-year limit on recording copyrights in Europe is that it makes available vintage tracks at modest prices; this budget compilation runs nearly 74 minutes and contains 25 selections. But the disadvantages of public-domain material are also apparent here, unfortunately. The Magic of Sarah Vaughan contains few annotations, and ... see all copies from $6.99!
12 view cover	Little Taste (1996) more music like this by Keith Oxman see all copies from $7.98! new only from $9.88!
13 view cover	Verve Jazz Masters 41 (1995) more music like this by Tal Farlow see all copies from $3.50! new only from $10.26!
14 view cover	Nightingale (1991) more music like this by Joe Temperley In the hands of a pedestrian player, the baritone saxophone can sound very stodgy. Not so with British born Joe Temperley, who shows that the "big" horn can be more than the foundation of the sax section. A veteran of such big band aggregations as Humphrey Lyttelton's, Buddy Rich's, Woody Herman's, and Duke Ellington's, Temperley is joined here by ... see all copies from $14.19! new only from $14.19!
15 view cover	The Classic Blue Note Recordings (2003) more music like this by Dexter Gordon A master of the tenor sax in the small-group bop setting, Dexter Gordon's marvelous tone, elegant lead lines, and deliberate behind-the-beat phrasing made him an obvious influence on John Coltrane and Sonny Rollins, among others, and although his body of work is much lauded, he still manages to be somehow underappreciated in the pantheon of great ... see all copies from $9.95! new only from $23.39!
16 view cover	The Congregation [RVG Edition] (2006) more music like this by Johnny Griffin The great tenor saxophonist Johnny Griffin is heard in top form on this near-classic quartet set. Assisted by pianist Sonny Clark, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Kenny Dennis, Griffin is exuberant on "The Congregation" (which is reminiscent of Horace Silver's "The Preacher"), thoughtful on the ballads, and swinging throughout. It's recommended ... see all copies from $7.17! new only from $7.24!
17 view cover	Greatest Love Album [United Multi Vmi] (2003) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $4.54! new only from $13.64!
18 view cover	Basquiat Salutes Jazz (2005) more music like this by Various Artists According to the liner essay by Tom Terrell, Jean-Michel Basquiat loved jazz. Anyone familiar with his painting already knew this. This compilation of classic bebop cuts from Fantasy's vast catalog contains 12 tracks by major artists -- Miles, Mingus, Roach, Gillespie, Parker -- and a fine cover.

19 view cover	One For My Baby (1994) more music like this by Allan Vache see all copies from $4.18! new only from $10.29!
20 view cover	Beautiful Ballads (2001) more music like this by Doris Day This budget-line compilation features a series of sessions recorded from 1948 to 1952 with Doris Day backed by a wide array of arrangers and orchestras, but predominantly showcases her work with arranger George Siravo. Die-hard fans and casual listeners alike will find this an easily accessible set featuring Day's smooth, crisp voice over lush ... see all copies from $3.56! new only from $3.56!
21 view cover	Rules of the Road (1993) more music like this by Anita O'Day This '93 session reunites O'Day with a big band for the first time in many years and also with Buddy Bregman, who produced her first Verve recording (the label's debut) in 1956. Her voice has deepened and perhaps lost some range and sheen in the upper register, but otherwise she is as fine a stylist as ever. O'Day's timing, pacing, and delivery on ... see all copies from $7.45! new only from $13.40!
22 view cover	The Groove ORGANization (2002) more music like this by Gene Ludwig Pittsburgh is known as a spawning ground for prominent jazz artists. While many left to try their hand in New York City or the recording studios of Hollywood and Los Angeles, some stayed behind to keep the jazz flame burning brightly. Hammond B3 master and Jimmy Smith disciple Gene Ludwig is one of those who remained keeping the flame lit with his ... see all copies from $7.95! new only from $12.23!

24 view cover	September Song [Hallmark] (1999) more music like this by Sarah Vaughan see all copies from $24.66!
25 view cover	Quintessence, Vol. 2 (2000) more music like this by Stan Getz & Chet Baker It's regrettable that Stan Getz and Chet Baker disliked one another personally, for they had so much in common musically. Both came out of jazz's Cool School, had delightful tones, favored subtlety and restraint, and both could be incredibly lyrical -- no jazzman has played ballads more beautifully than Getz or Baker. Recorded live in Norway in ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
