1	Midnight Special (1960) more music like this by Jimmy Smith Midnight Special is a perfect complement to Back at the Chicken Shack, which was recorded the same day. Organist Jimmy Smith, tenor saxophonist Stanley Turrentine, and guitarist Kenny Burrell always make for a potent team, and with drummer Donald Bailey completing the group, the quartet digs soulfully into such numbers as the groovin' "Midnight ... see all copies from $24.39! new only from $24.39!
2	The Best of Jimmy Smith: The Blue Note Years (1956) more music like this by Jimmy Smith Covering prime early recordings from 1956-1960 and one mid-'80s cut, Blue Note's The Best of Jimmy Smith offers up a fine introduction to the trailblazing jazz organist. Smith's Blue Note sessions not only introduced the world to the complex solo possibilities of the Hammond B3 organ, but simultaneously ushered in the soul-jazz era of the '60s, ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
3	The Last of the Blue Devils (1977) more music like this by Jay McShann When Charlie Parker first came to New York in 1942, he was a sideman in Jay McShann's big band. Every jazz fan knows what happened after that -- Parker changed the world and McShann became a footnote in Parker's biography. That's too bad, and not just for him; if the 1978 session remastered and reissued on this disc is anything to go by, McShann ... see all copies from $8.72! new only from $8.72!
4	The Best of Kenny Burrell [Blue Note] (1956) more music like this by Kenny Burrell One of the more low-profile offerings in Blue Note's best-of introductory series, this 13-track roundup of guitarist Kenny Burrell's work for the label still provides a fine overview of the jazz veteran's long career. Covering a stretch from his 1956 label debut ("Now See How You Are") to a 1986 live session at the Village Vanguard ("Jeannine"), ... see all copies from $5.84! new only from $17.79!
5	NEA Jazz Masters (2004) more music like this by Various Artists The NEA Jazz Masters program is sponsored by the National Endowment for the Arts, and since 1982 has been handing out honors and cash to legendary jazz artists. This collection of past award-winners (which is limited to recordings released by labels owned currently by Universal, namely Verve, Impulse!, MCA, and Decca) makes for some great ... see all copies from $17.76! new only from $17.76!
6	Paris All-Star Blues: A Tribute (1989) more music like this by Jay McShann The Jay McShann orchestra of the early 1940s, best known for having among its sidemen Charlie Parker, only lasted a few years, but made its impact on jazz history. In 1989, pianist McShann had a rare opportunity to record with a big band, a truly all-star outfit. Included among the illustrious players on this CD are trumpeters Clark Terry, Terence ... see all copies from $18.69!
7	Man from Muskogee (1972) more music like this by Jay McShann Pianist-vocalist Jay McShann was in the early part of his comeback when he recorded this superior quartet session with violinist Claude Williams (a veteran who was also on the verge of finally being discovered), bassist Don Thompson and drummer Paul Gunther in 1972. Reissued on CD, the fine swing date is so enjoyable that it makes one wonder how ... see all copies from $15.32! new only from $15.32!
8	Generation (1986) more music like this by Kenny Burrell On this set, Kenny Burrell teams up with a couple of younger players in what he calls his "Jazz Guitar Band." The only trouble is that it is next to impossible to tell Burrell apart from Rodney Jones or Bobby Broom; they all sound nearly alike. With bassist Dave Jackson and drummer Kenny Washington giving the three guitarists fine support, the ... see all copies from $12.00!
9	The Big Apple Bash (1971) more music like this by Jay McShann Pianist Jay McShann has spent much of his career being classified as a blues pianist when in fact he is a flexible swing stylist. On this excellent release, McShann appears with two groups of all-stars. His original "Crazy Legs and Friday Strut" and "Georgia on My Mind" find him joined by Herbie Mann (on flute and tenor), baritonist Gerry Mulligan ... see all copies from $8.91! new only from $8.91!
10	Cool Jazz: The Coolest of the Cool (2001) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $4.85! new only from $4.85!
11	The Missouri Connection (1992) more music like this by Jay McShann/John Hicks This set is a bit unusual, for one would not automatically expect Jay McShann and John Hicks to record a set of piano duets. Since Hicks has always been a flexible player, he defers to McShann, meeting the older pianist on his own turf. The repertoire is not at all unusual for McShann (particularly since "The Missouri Connection" is a medium-tempo ... see all copies from $22.84! new only from $22.84!
12 view cover	Atlantic Jazz: Kansas City (1990) more music like this by Various Artists The Kansas City sound brought earthy yet lithe energy to both jazz and R&B: From the impulsive swing of Bennie Moten and Count Basie to Big Joe Turner's genre-straddling work, K.C.'s impact on music can be heard in rock, soul, and even funk. As part of its mammoth jazz box set, Atlantic spotlights such key K.C. figures as Jay McShann, alto ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.00!
13 view cover	Hootie's Jumpin' Blues (1997) more music like this by Jay McShann At the young age of 87, Jay McShann recorded this album after the Edmonton Folk Festival. The master is living proof that the jazz continuum extends from Kansas City of the 1930s right up until to the present. On this relaxed and simple set of head arrangements, he's amply backed by Duke Robillard's band, plus Bob Tildesley on trumpet, and Dave ... see all copies from $15.11! new only from $15.11!
