1	Betcha Bottom Dollar (2007) more music like this by Puppini Sisters Poised somewhere between the Andrews Sisters and Nouvelle Vague, the Puppini Sisters modernize vocal harmony pop while keeping its "so traditional, it's hip" appeal.

3	Java Jive [Laserlight] (1994) more music like this by The Ink Spots There's no telling what group of Ink Spots recorded these 14 tracks, which include remakes of the group's hits like the title song and "You Only Hurt The One You Love," as well as vintage standards like "My Wild Irish Rose" and "Shine On Harvest Moon."

6	The Anthology: Down in Birdland (1992) more music like this by The Manhattan Transfer As the Manhattan Transfer went on, so did the legacy of the jazz vocal ensemble. In that regard, though the competition was scarce, this group did elevate the art form to a higher level without much compromise. This two-CD, 39-track compilation represents many of the high points of the group. If anything is missing, some of the vocalese influenced ... see all copies from $30.56! new only from $30.56!
7	The Definitive Pop Collection (2006) more music like this by The Manhattan Transfer The Definitive Pop Collection compiles a superb cross section of vocal jazz group the Manhattan Transfer's best recordings from 1975 to 2006.

8	The Singles Plus (2003) more music like this by The Platters This is a fine two-disc anthology of the Platters which manages to combine both the classic early hits ("Only You," "The Great Pretender," "Twilight Time," "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes") when the group was led by Tony Williams' sweet tenor, and the later uptown soul hits ("I Love You 1000 Times," "With This Ring," "Washed Ashore") that featured the ... see all copies from $34.59! new only from $34.59!
9	More of the Best (1997) more music like this by Johnny Mercer This budget release, the second of two volumes, again draws primarily upon airchecks (as on its predecessor, Some of the Best, there is one Capitol licensing, in this case, "One for My Baby [And One More for the Road]"). One of those radio transcriptions, "Goody, Goody," dates from as far back as 1939, but most are from the '40s when Johnny Mercer ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $2.98!
10	Rare Air: 1937-1944 (2001) more music like this by The Ink Spots Vocal harmony quartet the Ink Spots formed a kind of bridge between the showtune pop styles of the 1940s and the later street corner doo wop style of the 1950s and were arguably the first modern black vocal group. Rare Air 1937-1944 is a marvelous collection of extremely rare movie and radio transcriptions and plays like a live concert, showing ... see all copies from $20.59! new only from $20.59!

12 view cover	The Complete Modernaires on Columbia, Vol. 4 (1949-1950) (2002) more music like this by The Modernaires As the Modernaires' star faded in the late '40s, their label, Columbia Records, used them increasingly to accompany other artists. Performances with Dinah Shore, Doris Day, and others have turned up on previous volumes of Collectables' four-disc chronicle of the group's Columbia recordings. On this final volume, a quarter of the 20 tracks find ... see all copies from $9.82! new only from $9.82!
