1	Dino: The Essential Dean Martin (Special Platinum Edition) (2005) more music like this by Dean Martin see all copies from $16.50! new only from $16.50!
2	Happy Holidays: I Love the Winter Weather (1999) more music like this by Jo Stafford Jo Stafford's Happy Holidays is one of the better Christmas albums to play during the holidays. Her beautiful croon fits these selections perfectly, as they are almost all more up-tempo, jazz influenced numbers from the last century. Her voice is especially good on the slower numbers, more specifically on "Christmas Song," "Nearness of You," and ... see all copies from $14.34! new only from $14.34!
3	Live from Las Vegas (2005) more music like this by Dean Martin An unreleased recording of Dean Martin live at the Sands hotel circa 1967 should have any fun-loving hipster's tail wagging, but tell him it's the late show and his head will explode. That's what's captured on this entry into Capitol's Las Vegas Centennial series, and as with other volumes, Dino's Live From Las Vegas has great packaging, fantastic ... see all copies from $8.97! new only from $11.31!
4	Groove Brothers (1960) more music like this by Wes Montgomery Although this is billed to Wes Montgomery, it is in fact a combination of two early-'60s LPs by the Montgomery Brothers -- The Montgomery Brothers and The Montgomery Brothers in Canada -- onto one disc. (Also note that it's almost entirely different from the Montgomery Brothers' Milestone double LP that also bears the name Groove Brothers, which ... see all copies from $6.80! new only from $6.80!
5	A Musical Thrill (2006) more music like this by The Hi-Lo's see all copies from $8.28! new only from $8.28!
6	The Rat Pack Live at the Sands (2001) more music like this by The Rat Pack Marking the release of the remake of Ocean's Eleven, the 1960 Las Vegas caper film starring Frank Sinatra and members of his Rat Pack of friends, Capitol Records issued two Rat Pack albums: a compilation of studio recordings featuring Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis, Jr. and this previously unreleased live recording. Between 1960 and 1965 ... see all copies from $46.75!
7	The Best of Bing (1999) more music like this by Bing Crosby see all copies from $10.40! new only from $13.00!
8	The Best of Dean Martin [EMI Box] (1997) more music like this by Dean Martin British EMI's The Best of Dean Martin is a three-disc, 48-track collection that contains all of the usual suspects, plus some nice rarities, but Capitol's 40-track, double-disc collection The Capitol Years is a better bargain, offering a better selection of songs for nearly the same price. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.08! new only from $10.08!
9	A Winter Romance [Collectors' Choice] (2005) more music like this by Dean Martin A Winter Romance is perhaps best described as a "seasonal" album rather than a Christmas or holiday release, despite the inclusion of such familiar fare as "White Christmas" and "Winter Wonderland." Dean Martin has also included such standards as "The Things We Did Last Summer" and "June in January," as well as some specially written material, ... see all copies from $12.55! new only from $12.55!
10	20 Great Love Songs (1998) more music like this by Dean Martin Dean Martin was a master of balladry, and this Disky collection includes 20 examples of his art. Unfortunately, these aren't the 20 best examples of that art. The disc opens with "That's Amore," one of his most familiar songs, and includes several of the Italian ballads he treasured ("Return to Me (Rittorna a Me)," "Come Back to Sorrento," "In ... see all copies from $3.69! new only from $3.76!
11 view cover	A Centennial Anthology of His Decca Recordings (2003) more music like this by Bing Crosby Bing Crosby recorded exclusively for Decca Records from 1934-1955 and non-exclusively for a couple of years after that, and Decca purchased some of the masters he recorded for Brunswick prior to his Decca contract, so parent company MCA (a part of Universal) owns the bulk of his studio recordings. The European copyright limit of 50 years on ... see all copies from $14.21! new only from $27.16!
12 view cover	Guitar Moods (1956) more music like this by Mundell Lowe This is very much a chamber jazz set. Mundell Lowe plays "Our Waltz" as an unaccompanied guitar solo and his trio with bassist Trigger Alpert and drummer Ed Shaughnessy is joined by either Al Klink or Phil Bodner on various woodwinds during seven of the 11 other selections. The bass clarinet, flute, oboe, and English horn are quite atmospheric, ... see all copies from $9.69! new only from $9.69!
13 view cover	It's Easy to Remember (2001) more music like this by Bing Crosby The European copyright law on recordings, which cuts off after only 50 years, is responsible for many shoddy compilations of the work of vintage artists, scratchy 78s from someone's collection transferred to disc and put out with little or no concern for quality. But it also allows for more respectable efforts, such as the series of four-CD box ... see all copies from $17.00! new only from $18.77!
14 view cover	Spotlight on Dean Martin [Great Gentlemen of Song] (1995) more music like this by Dean Martin Unlike many in Capitol's Spotlight On... series, Dean Martin's volume isn't quite the all-encompassing hits collection it appears to be from the package. Of the 18 tracks, each was recorded at either of two sessions -- January 1959 and May 1960 -- just over a year apart, which doesn't exactly make the album a career retrospective. Still, it ... see all copies from $3.77!
15 view cover	All the Number-One Hits (2002) more music like this by Bing Crosby see all copies from $8.53! new only from $8.53!
16 view cover	Calendar Girl/Your Number Please... (1997) more music like this by Julie London It's common practice for the British wing of EMI to release their back catalog of vocal jazz and easy listening albums of the '50s and '60s on budget-priced two-for-one compact discs. These CDs aren't aimed at the American market, but the discs are widely available throughout North America, often at the same budget price. This is good news for ... see all copies from $11.40! new only from $11.40!
17 view cover	All Alone by the Telephone/Four Seasons of Love (2001) more music like this by Polly Bergen This two-fer compiles Polly Bergen's All Alone by the Telephone and Four Seasons of Love. It's an economical and convenient way for those who have a limited knowledge of Bergen's music to increase their knowledge and discover what lies beyond the singer's best-known recordings. Jason Birchmeier, All Music Guide see all copies from $9.82! new only from $9.82!
18 view cover	Cocktail Hour with Dean Martin (2000) more music like this by Dean Martin see all copies from $11.12! new only from $11.12!
19 view cover	'S Wonderful!/'S Awful Nice/'S Marvelous (1997) more music like this by Ray Conniff Sony repackaged and re-released three Ray Conniff collections -- 'S Wonderful, 'S Awful Nice and 'S Marvelous -- as a slip-cased box set. It's not a bad way to acquire the albums if you don't already own them, but there are no bonus tracks or new packaging or remastering, which means it's of marginal interest to hardcore collectors. Stephen ... see all copies from $60.73!
20 view cover	King Bing (1999) more music like this by Bing Crosby see all copies from $7.55! new only from $7.55!
21	Joy of Living (1959) more music like this by Nelson Riddle The liner notes speak of Nelson Riddle's "restful yet zestful style" as an arranger-conductor, which is perhaps a way of saying that the material here is mid-tempo, with the frequently familiar tunes ("Makin' Whoopee!," "June in January") dressed up in attractive charts that never get too lively or somber. Perhaps Riddle, who was being used less ... see all copies from $5.00!
22 view cover	Listen! (1956) more music like this by The Hi-Lo's The Hi-Lo's' first album was a solid showcase for the group's complex four-part harmonies, singing mainstream pop material set to jazzy, at times mildly swinging instrumental arrangements. "Whatever Lola Wants" (from the musical Damn Yankees), "Fools Rush In," and "She's Funny That Way" are among the more familiar songs on Listen to the Hi-Lo's, ... see all copies from $13.00! new only from $19.27!
23 view cover	Complete Recordings (2007) more music like this by Teddy Wilson Trio/Jo Jones see all copies from $17.68! new only from $17.68!
24 view cover	Gold [US] (2008) more music like this by Bing Crosby In his self-published book Bing Crosby's Commercial Recordings: From 78s to CDs, Crosby scholar F.B. Wiggins provides a list of "Bing's 40 Top Hits." Wiggins is also the compiler of this 40-track hits compilation, and unsurprisingly 32 of its selections are included on that list, plus two songs in different versions from the ones on the list. ... see all copies from $6.85! new only from $6.85!
25 view cover	A Musical Autobiography [Remastered] (1954) more music like this by Bing Crosby In 1954, Bing Crosby undertook the most laborious exercise in his entire career, narrating a career history and re-recording dozens of songs from his two-decade career to present for A Musical Autobiography. (While only the pre-1940 material was re-recorded, that's still around 50 songs). Crosby was obviously an old hand at mixing monologue with ... see all copies from $40.32! new only from $40.32!
