1	Ken Burns Jazz (2000) more music like this by Fletcher Henderson With cooperation from the Verve and Columbia Legacy catalogs, the Ken Burns Jazz series on CD individually spotlights the musical excellence of 22 jazz originators whose careers and influence are explored in Burns' PBS documentary Jazz. Bandleader Fletcher Henderson's ability as a composer and talent scout greatly outweighed his skills as either a ... see all copies from $11.06! new only from $11.06!
2	Tram!, Vol. 1: Frank Trumbauer's Legacy to American Jazz (1923) more music like this by Frankie Trumbauer Frankie Trumbauer has received unfair treatment in some jazz history books. A brilliant C-melody saxophonist, Tram was overshadowed by his good friend, cornetist Bix Beiderbecke; many forget that some of Bix's greatest solos were taken on records actually led by Trumbauer. Fortunately, the collector's TOM label has reissued on three CDs not only ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $10.25!
3	Best of the Big Bands (1939) more music like this by Will Bradley & Ray McKinley Will Bradley & Ray McKinley's Best of the Big Bands is the Bradley & McKinley entry among an early series of Sony-made CD reissues of 1930s and '40s big-band music, and so far it is the only Bradley & McKinley reissue that Sony has done. Its 16 selections cover many, though not all, of the high points in the studio legacy of this important and ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $39.95!
4	Riffin' (2001) more music like this by The Fletcher Henderson Orchestra Originally released on LP as part of Past Perfect's Silver Line vinyl series, Riffin' collects seventeen 1930s tracks from the Fletcher Henderson Orchestra, a band that in retrospect could swing with the best of them, although at the time Henderson was chiefly known for his skilled and subtly innovative arrangements for Benny Goodman. Goodman, ... see all copies from $4.29! new only from $4.35!
5	Blue Room: 1933-36 (2006) more music like this by Isham Jones see all copies from $13.87! new only from $13.87!
6	Bob Schulz & Frisco Jazz Band (1994) more music like this by Bob Schulz see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
7	The Dean of Swing (2003) more music like this by Ben Pollack This Living Era compilation presents a chronological core sample of Ben Pollack's recorded works, ranging from the ridiculous to the sublime. While some of the dopier vocals might cause Irritable Ear Syndrome, there's enough solid cooking in here to constitute a fairly enjoyable retrospective of the old New Orleans Rhythm Kings drummer's career as ... see all copies from $14.92! new only from $14.92!
8	The Complete 1924-1926 Sessions (2005) more music like this by The Tennessee Tooters The Tennessee Tooters were essentially trombonist Miff Mole's Memphis Five with Red Nichols' trumpet and Benny Krueger's alto saxophone added to the mix. Together as a recording unit for only 21 months, the Tooters bridged the gap between Dixieland and Roaring Twenties swing in that short time. The two dozen tracks presented on Complete 1924-1926 ... see all copies from $11.26! new only from $11.26!
9	The Cotton Pickers: 1922-1925 (2001) more music like this by The Cotton Pickers Since the band was essentially a studio construct, the membership of the Cotton Pickers was fairly fluid, and Brunswick Records used the moniker to put out several sides of small combo dance music, usually blues foxtrots. The early incarnation of the band featured trumpeter Phil Napoleon and saxophonist Bennie Krueger, whose strong lines and ... see all copies from $5.85! new only from $5.85!
10	Swing Time! The Fabulous Big Band Era 1925-1955 (1925) more music like this by Various Artists This three-CD box set does an excellent job of covering the big-band era through 66 recordings (by almost as many orchestras) owned by Columbia. The selections (programmed in chronological order), although emphasizing the 1934-45 era, also include 18 earlier and six later recordings. The 60 Columbia/Okeh sides, which include the real rarities, are ... see all copies from $12.09! new only from $12.09!
11	The Complete Fletcher Henderson (1927-1936) (1927) more music like this by Fletcher Henderson "Complete" is in this case a relative term, meaning every recording by Fletcher Henderson's orchestra owned by RCA/Bluebird rather than every record he made during this period. A perfectly done two-LP set, these 34 songs include three from 1927 (featuring trumpeters Tommy Ladnier and Joe Smith at their best), 12 varying sides from 1931-32 (during ... see all copies from $11.00!
12 view cover	1934-1937 (1934) more music like this by Fletcher Henderson In early 1935 Fletcher Henderson broke up his classic orchestra but a year later, with the success of so many other big bands, he formed a new ensemble. This Classics CD includes four songs from 1934, Henderson's entire output from 1936 and his first recording of 1937. The main difference between the two units is that the later one boasted the ... see all copies from $25.00!
13 view cover	Slumming on Park Avenue (1934) more music like this by Fletcher Henderson see all copies from $7.49!
14 view cover	The Cotton Pickers (1998) more music like this by The Cotton Pickers Featuring Dixieland/trad jazz pioneers like Frankie Trumbauer, Miff Mole and Phil Napoleon, Cotton Pickers includes early standards like "Those Panama Mamas," "I Wish I Could Shimmy Like My Sister Kate," "Got to Cool My Doggies Now," "Way Down Yonder in New Orleans" and "Rampart Street Blues."
