1	Clifford Brown & Max Roach (1954) more music like this by Clifford Brown/Max Roach Quintet According to the original 1955 liner notes to Clifford Brown and Max Roach, the announcement that Clifford Brown and Max Roach had begun recording and playing together sent shock waves throughout the jazz community and predictions ran rampant about how the two might shape bop to come. The last duo to really shape the music had begun over ten years ... see all copies from $14.00! new only from $16.20!
2	The Definitive George Shearing (2002) more music like this by George Shearing British-born pianist George Shearing's work for the MGM and Capitol record labels from the late '40s to the early '60s is collected on this 21-track compilation. Beginning with four tracks recorded for MGM in 1949 with his unique quintet of guitar, bass, drums, and vibraphone (which would double the melody he was playing with his right hand), ... see all copies from $7.90! new only from $10.35!
3	The Poll Winners (1957) more music like this by Barney Kessel/Shelly Manne/Ray Brown If the picture of three grown men hanging onto giant, colored swirl sticks looks a bit odd, or if the title The Poll Winners seems a bit conceited, the music, nonetheless -- recorded in 1957 -- still sounds great in 2002. Besides, guitarist Barney Kessel, bassist Ray Brown, and drummer Shelly Manne really did win polls in Down Beat, Playboy, and ... see all copies from $9.92! new only from $9.92!
4	The Notorious Bettie Page (2006) more music like this by Original Soundtrack By juxtaposing sultry jazz and raunchy R&B with the innocent pop of the '50s, the soundtrack to Marry Harron's The Notorious Bettie Page does a good job of setting the mood for the film, and also reflects how Page was both an icon of underground sexuality and a woman from a religious family (who eventually worked for a time as a Christian ... see all copies from $8.77! new only from $16.22!
5	Birk's Works: Verve Big Band Sessions (1995) more music like this by Dizzy Gillespie Dizzy Gillespie's globetrotting big band of 1956-1957 was one of his finest groups, a very exciting orchestra that at various times had such players as trumpeters Gillespie, Joe Gordon, and Lee Morgan, trombonists Melba Liston and Al Grey, altoists Phil Woods and Ernie Henry, the tenors of Billy Mitchell, Ernie Wilkins, and Benny Golson, and ... see all copies from $14.45! new only from $19.07!
6	Blues Sonata (1962) more music like this by Charlie Byrd Though recorded on one day, at standard length for an LP, this is really two albums in one sleeve, showcasing two rather different formats for this highly original guitarist to pursue. "The Blues Sonata" is set up in a pseudo-classical three-movement manner, with a polonaise, ballad, and scherzo, and the liner notes refer to a sonata form of ... see all copies from $10.06! new only from $10.06!
7	Glass Ceiling (1993) more music like this by Andy LaVerne Trio Andy LaVerne's series of consistently fresh CDs for Steeplechase kicked off in the late '80s and shows no signs of letting up, making one wonder if record labels in his native land are too busy searching for the latest young jazz superstar to notice his immense talent. This trio session from 1993 features the pianist with frequent collaborator ... see all copies from $16.41! new only from $16.41!
8	I Remember Clifford (1992) more music like this by Arturo Sandoval Due to the straight-ahead nature of the music on this CD, plus trumpeter Arturo Sandoval's self-restraint, I Remember Clifford has been many jazz purists' favorite among the trumpeter's releases. Sandoval, who is joined by pianist Kenny Kirkland, bassist Charnett Moffett, drummer Kenny Washington, and either Ernie Watts, David Sanchez, or Ed Calle ... see all copies from $4.29! new only from $9.00!
9	On the Sunny Side of the Strip (1993) more music like this by George Shearing This is one of five live George Shearing Quintet LPs whose contents were reissued as part of a Mosaic CD box set. Superior to the pianist's studio mood music albums of the period, this set is quite bop-oriented with such songs as "Jordu," "Confirmation," "Bernie's Tune" and "Joy Spring" being given the Shearing treatment. Vibraphonist Emil ... see all copies from $11.00! new only from $11.09!
10	Brownie: The Complete EmArcy Recordings of Clifford Brown (1954) more music like this by Clifford Brown Although undoubtedly an expensive acquisition, this ten-CD set is perfectly done and contains dozens of gems. The remarkable but short-lived trumpeter Clifford Brown has the second half of his career fully documented (other than his final performance) and he is showcased in a wide variety of settings. The bulk of the numbers are of Brownie's ... see all copies from $249.50!
11	Our Delights (1978) more music like this by Tommy Flanagan with Hank Jones Piano duets have the potential danger of getting overcrowded and a bit incoherent, but neither happens on this rather delightful set. Hank Jones and Tommy Flanagan, two of the four great jazz pianists (along with Barry Harris and Roland Hanna) to emerge from Detroit in the '40s and '50s, have similar styles and their mutual respect is obvious. ... see all copies from $7.90! new only from $10.06!
12	The Definitive Clifford Brown (2002) more music like this by Clifford Brown Trumpeter Clifford Brown had a brief career. He started playing jazz in the late '40s but was killed in a car accident in 1956 (along with pianist Richie Powell, younger brother of Bud). In that short time his interest in expanding the bebop medium is apparent on The Definitive Clifford Brown. Several of the legendary hard bop quintet sides he ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $9.61!
13 view cover	Trio Sud (2002) more music like this by Sylvain Luc Trio Sud, Sylvain Luc's second outing with bassist Jean-Marc Jafet and drummer André Ceccarelli, is a riot of musical diversity, featuring highly creative readings of everything from Horace Silver ("Out of the Night Came You," "Peace") to Miriam Makeba ("Pata Pata") to Barry Manilow ("Could It Be Magic"). Luc's acoustic guitar tone is effervescent ... see all copies from $11.24! new only from $11.24!
14 view cover	Something Auld, Something Newgrass, Something Borrowed, Something Bluegrass (1976) more music like this by Bill Keith Catch Tony Rice, David Grisman, Jim Rooney, Tom Grey, Vassar Clements, Ken Kasek, and Al Jones on this album. The bluegrass is top-notch, and Bill Keith struts his stuff. Chip Renner, All Music Guide see all copies from $14.74! new only from $14.74!
15 view cover	Puente Caliente (2001) more music like this by Tito Puente Puente Caliente, a two disc set, features Tito Puente's hottest Concord Picante CDs: Un Poco Loco and Sensacion.

Hold It Right There, his fourth solo album, is a collection of standards played with a piano/bass/drums backup band, plus a ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $12.34!

19 view cover	The Concord Jazz Heritage Series (1982) more music like this by Tito Puente During the period covered by this 1998 sampler CD, Tito Puente had a series of very strong Latin jazz bands, much more jazz-oriented than most of his earlier work. In fact, other than his own "Lucky Dog," all dozen selections on this retrospective are jazz standards, including "Airegin," "On Broadway," "Donna Lee," "Jordu" and "Killer Joe." In ... see all copies from $9.42! new only from $9.42!
20 view cover	Trumpet Legacy (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Four masters of the trumpet, two generations apart, get together for an inspired session to pay homage to Dizzy, Miles, Satchmo, Clifford Brown, Chet Baker, Lee Morgan, Kenny Dorham, Booker Little and Fats Navarro. All four play together on the opening "So What" and the closer, Gillespie's "That's Earl Brother"; they split off in different ... see all copies from $10.69! new only from $10.69!
21 view cover	The Colors of Latin Jazz: Latin Vibe! (2000) more music like this by Various Artists The first CD in the Colors of Latin Jazz series spotlights awe-inspiring performances by vibraphone virtuosos Dave Samuels, Joe Locke, Gary Burton, Cal Tjader, and Terry Gibbs that take you to a place only the most legendary Latin jazz artists dare to go on songs like "Mambo Diablo" and "Jordu," both featuring the show-stopping percussion of the ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $5.00!

23 view cover	On a Misty Night: Have You Ever Seen the Rain/Use the Stairs (2002) more music like this by Stanley Turrentine Two former LPs are completely reissued on this single CD. The first set, Have You Ever Seen the Rain, was recorded in 1975 shortly after tenor saxophonist Stanley Turrentine left the CTI label, and it is a rather commercial effort despite a couple appearances by trumpeter Freddie Hubbard. Mr. T. plays well, as always, but the arrangements by Gene ... see all copies from $16.43! new only from $16.43!
24 view cover	The Contemporary Records Story (2004) more music like this by Various Artists Usually, jazz label retrospectives -- particularly those issued as multiple-disc boxes -- are very mixed affairs. At least with one disc the listener knows upfront that there is a boatload of stuff missing. But these affairs can be wrenching exercises for jazz fans because of idiosyncratic, subjective selection by producers. The four-disc ... see all copies from $35.05! new only from $35.05!
25 view cover	Piano Playhouse (1957) more music like this by Various Artists The recordings on this LP were originally supposed to be released by the Mode label in the late '50s but the company went defunct before it could come out. Released for the first time by V.S.O.P. in 1986, these 16 selections (all recorded the same day) feature five different pianists (Carl Perkins, Jimmy Rowles, Paul Smith, Gerald Wiggins and Lou ... see all copies from $14.29! new only from $14.29!
