1	The Best of Miss Peggy Lee (1998) more music like this by Peggy Lee Any compilation that properly anthologizes the chart history of Miss Peggy Lee is forced to sprint through 24 years, including a pair of decades that were the most culturally tumultuous of the 20th century. Such is the peril of attempting to summarize Lee's career by way of her hits, though for introductory purposes this disc is an excellent one ... see all copies from $14.56! new only from $14.56!
2	Miss Peggy Lee (1998) more music like this by Peggy Lee Except for four hit-making years for Decca in the middle of the '50s, Peggy Lee spent the balance of her career with Capitol. And though her many LPs were among the best recorded at the label, most still lay unreleased by the late '90s. Capitol rectified the situation somewhat with the release of its four-disc treatment, Miss Peggy Lee. Including ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $47.65!
3	The Singles Collection (2002) more music like this by Peggy Lee Peggy Lee was a renaissance woman, a multi-talented singer and composer who achieved popular as well as critical success. Short of a complete recordings box set, The Singles Collection is the best Peggy Lee career anthology yet, and a big improvement over the oddly compiled and sequenced 1998 box set Miss Peggy Lee. The Singles Collection isn't ... see all copies from $49.24! new only from $49.24!
4	His Original & Greatest Hits (1999) more music like this by Phil Harris Phil Harris talk-singing style made him the pop equivalent of Tex Williams, and he had a clear influence on the Big Bopper and Jerry Reed, to name a couple. His late-'40s and early-'50s recordings for RCA are collected here, including such Harris favorites as "Woodman, Woodman Spare That Tree," "The Preacher and the Bear," "Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! ... see all copies from $11.46! new only from $11.46!
5	Ready to Fly (2003) more music like this by FFH There's always been a sticky sweetness emitting from the music of FFH. The band's fourth release since 1998 (Ready to Fly) delivers much the same sack of sugar while still mixing radio-ready gold nuggets into the batch. Songs like "You Found Me" and "Good to Be Free" would cause a diabetic coma with their sweet attack. Cuts like "If Not for Christ ... see all copies from $2.49! new only from $4.88!
6	The Best of Peggy Lee [EMI] (1999) more music like this by Peggy Lee Produced for British consumers but widely availably in the States, The Best of Peggy Lee collects 16 singles Lee cut while at Capitol Records in the 1940s, '50s, and '60s. Some of these tunes (such as "Fever," "I'm a Woman," and "Is That All There Is?") were career-defining hits for Lee while other tracks ("The Shining Sea" and "Don't Smoke in Bed ... see all copies from $13.40! new only from $18.45!
7	Way Up! (2006) more music like this by Wayman Tisdale Wayman Tisdale returns to the recording fold after a two-year break to issue another jazz-funk, groove-laden coaster with Way Up! The case of characters on this set is enormous, a few of the more prominent names include Jeff Lorber, Bob James, George Duke, Ricky Peterson, Kirk Whalum, Jonathan Butler, Dave Koz and Mel Brown. Tisdale, as expected, ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $15.70!
8	A Good Day (2003) more music like this by Jessica Molaskey Jessica Molaskey is a seasoned Broadway performer who also makes a strong impression in tackling classics from the Great American Songbook or reviving pop songs of the 1940s. Her expressive vocals are effective without resorting to gimmickry, backed by a sterling cast of musicians, which include guitarist John Pizzarelli (her husband and the ... see all copies from $11.19! new only from $13.56!
9	Capitol Collectors Series, Vol. 1: The Early Years (1990) more music like this by Peggy Lee Like Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee started out as a big band vocalist but was destined to enjoy her greatest success as a solo artist. The band leader who gave Lee her first major break and featured her prominently in the early 1940s was Benny Goodman, much as Tommy Dorsey did with Sinatra and Chick Webb did with Fitzgerald. ... see all copies from $4.95! new only from $10.79!
10	All-Time Greatest Hits (1990) more music like this by Peggy Lee In her prime, Peggy Lee may have been the most prominent seductress in popular music, based solely on her interpretation of "Fever." She could also sing some fairly legitimate jazz, as evidenced by her takes of "Alright, Okay, You Win" and "Why Don't You Do Right?" They are included on this well-programmed 11-tune set, which can legitimately be ... see all copies from $2.10! new only from $7.12!
11 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!
12 view cover	75 Happy Hits: Zing! Went the Strings of My Heart (2007) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $7.95! new only from $9.38!
13 view cover	With a Song in My Heart/Yours Alone (2000) more music like this by Jane Froman see all copies from $12.50!
14 view cover	Jumpin' With Jonah (1958) more music like this by Jonah Jones One of the few Jonah Jones Capitol records reissued on CD thus far (which is ironic because many of his albums from the late '50s were strong sellers), this disc has all of the music from his third Capitol release (Jumpin' With Jonah) plus four other songs originally released on other albums but actually from the same sessions. The trumpeter (who ... see all copies from $3.19!

17 view cover	Swingin' with Bing! Bing Crosby's Lost Radio Performances (2004) more music like this by Bing Crosby The public domain is well stocked with budget discs drawn from Bing Crosby's long radio career. Unfortunately, few are worth the plastic they're etched on, the usual problems including horrid sound quality and little in the way of documentation (regarding their origins) or context (regarding their relation to Crosby's career). Enter Shout! Factory ... see all copies from $39.74! new only from $39.74!
18 view cover	With a Song in My Heart/Pal Joey (2003) more music like this by Original Soundtrack/1952 Broadway Revival Cast see all copies from $8.53! new only from $8.53!
19 view cover	The Radio Years, Vol. 2 (1987) more music like this by Bing Crosby GNP Crescendo's release of The Radio Years, Vols. 1-2 in 1987 (the volumes were available separately or together) wasn't the debut of these mid-'50s recordings, but for the first time master discs from Crosby's own collection were used, resulting in clear performances and, for the most part, excellent quality. Informal and gently swinging on most ... see all copies from $10.54! new only from $10.54!
20	Magic Moments (1998) more music like this by Perry Como see all copies from $2.85! new only from $4.98!
21 view cover	It's a Good Day (1983) more music like this by Mavis Rivers Early-'80s sessions by veteran jazz and blues vocalist Mavis Rivers, who also sings with Matt Catingub's big band. She has a huge voice, exuberant manner, and non-stop energy, which keeps her going through some uneven material. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $7.36! new only from $14.59!
22 view cover	Legendary Voices of the Past (2005) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
23 view cover	That's for Me (2004) more music like this by Susie Arioli Band That's for Me is the Susie Arioli Band's third release for Justin Time and it makes a specialty of a 1930s style of swing. With influences and a knowledge of repertoire from Leadbelly to Stuff Smith, from Tammy Wynette to Ella Fitzgerald, listeners seeking an array of rarely heard songs are sure to enjoy this great collection of music. Arioli's ... see all copies from $14.93! new only from $14.93!
24 view cover	The Best of the Singles Collection (2003) more music like this by Peggy Lee Record-buying etiquette suggests that if Peggy Lee's The Singles Collection is overly long (in fact, it's a four-disc box set), The Best of the Singles Collection will then logically include all of her best recordings and become the obvious choice for listeners wishing to test the waters. That's not quite the case, however, and it's mostly due to ... see all copies from $10.14! new only from $10.14!
