1	Homage to Duke (1993) more music like this by Dave Grusin Although Dave Grusin is best known as a soundtrack composer and for his jazz-pop recordings, he has always had a great admiration for jazz. This CD (released in a fairly deluxe package) gave Grusin an opportunity to pay tribute to Duke Ellington. He performs ten mostly familiar songs associated with Ellington and wisely features fluegelhornist ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.57!
2	Blue in Green (2001) more music like this by Tierney Sutton There have been a number of tributes to Bill Evans since the pianist's death in 1980, including a few by singers. But this CD by Tierney Sutton (only her third as a leader) is not only wide-ranging in its scope, as it draws songs from throughout his career, but the often innovative arrangements bring a freshness to the music. Sutton doesn't resort ... see all copies from $9.43! new only from $12.49!
3	In the Sun (2002) more music like this by Jane Monheit Jane Monheit's third album attempts to combine a number of elements: jazz standards, Brazilian repertoire, ballads lushly orchestrated by Alan Broadbent and Vince Mendoza, and even pop vehicles originally sung by Linda Ronstadt and Judy Collins. The young vocalist is usually at her best fronting a small combo; here one wishes she had relied more ... see all copies from $3.04! new only from $6.44!
4	Miles Davis Plays for Lovers [Bonus Tracks] (2003) more music like this by Miles Davis Miles Davis Plays for Lovers collects a number of ballads from the trumpeter's mid-'50s albums to create a lovely late-night disc for friends, night owls, and couples in love. The core band for three-quarters of the album consists of trumpeter Davis, tenor John Coltrane, pianist Red Garland, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Philly Joe Jones. ... see all copies from $6.48! new only from $6.48!
5	The Great Summit: Complete Sessions [Deluxe Edition] (2000) more music like this by Louis Armstrong & Duke Ellington The master takes of this two-CD set have appeared previously on a number of reissues on both LP and CD as a compilation of the original two individual records Together for the First Time and The Great Reunion, but this release easily beats all of the previous issues. Two music legends, Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington, met in the studio for two ... see all copies from $25.93! new only from $25.93!
6	Ella & Duke at the Côte D'Azur (1966) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald/Duke Ellington This two-disc package features highlights from several concerts by Duke Ellington and Ella Fitzgerald during the Le Festival International de Jazz d'Antibes-Juan-les-Pins in the south of France between July 26 and July 29, 1966. Both jazz legends are in top form throughout and the obvious affection between them results in some sublime musical ... see all copies from $7.53! new only from $19.88!
7	The Great Summit: The Master Takes (2001) more music like this by Louis Armstrong & Duke Ellington Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington were (and are) two of the main stems of jazz. Any way you look at it, just about everything that's ever happened in this music leads directly -- or indirectly -- back to them. Both men were born on the cusp of the 19th and 20th centuries, and each became established as a leader during the middle '20s. Although ... see all copies from $5.06! new only from $9.32!
8	On 52nd Street (2000) more music like this by Marian McPartland This album consists primarily of performances recorded at the Hickory House Club in October 1953, with a trio consisting of bassist Vinnie Burke and the great drummer Joe Morello, who never achieved the fame he deserved, but did make a name for himself in Dave Brubeck's group. At the end of this program are five studio recordings made earlier that ... see all copies from $7.95! new only from $10.77!
9	The New Miles Davis Quintet (1955) more music like this by Miles Davis Quintet Although they had made a few slightly earlier cuts that would later be issued on Columbia, the first full-length album by the Miles Davis Quintet is quite intriguing in that it gives one a look at tenor saxophonist John Coltrane when he still had a hesitant style. This audiophile CD reissue has the same music that is currently available on an ... see all copies from $10.06! new only from $10.06!
10	In the Long Run (1998) more music like this by Dave Ellis Dave Ellis' more intellectual side wins out on his second album, In the Long Run, which was produced by veteran Orrin Keepnews. The Bay Area saxman's debut album, Raven, had its share of groove-oriented soul-jazz, but on this sophomore effort, he stays away from R&B-influenced material and sticks to the acoustic and straight-ahead. Having worked ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.85!
11 view cover	Duke in Blue (1999) more music like this by Ellis Marsalis Recorded during Duke Ellington's centennial year, this solo piano date by Ellis Marsalis is a tasteful tribute to Ellington. Marsalis expertly performs 15 songs from Duke's repertoire (including three tunes in a medley), sometimes modernizing the chords but always keeping the melody close by. The problem with the recital from the listener's ... see all copies from $4.59! new only from $4.59!
12 view cover	Chronicle: The Complete Prestige Recordings (1951-1956) (1992) more music like this by Miles Davis This eight-CD set does indeed have all 17 of trumpeter Miles Davis' Prestige sessions. The music is also available in separate CDs in the Original Jazz Classics series. Most significant are the many performances by Davis' classic quintet of 1955-1956 with tenor saxophonist John Coltrane, pianist Red Garland, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer ... see all copies from $110.00! new only from $150.00!
13 view cover	Swingtime in New York (1994) more music like this by Claude Williams Violinist Claude Williams, at the age of 86, shows that he is still in his musical prime during this quintet date with Bill Easley (who switches between tenor, clarinet and flute), pianist Sir Roland Hanna, bassist Earl May and drummer Joe Ascione. Williams was with both Andy Kirk and Count Basie shortly before they made it big but has spent most ... see all copies from $2.82! new only from $10.29!
14 view cover	Chicago: The Living Legends (1961) more music like this by Junie C. Cobb & His New Hometown Band see all copies from $13.00!
15 view cover	Sophisticated Lady [RCA] (1940) more music like this by Duke Ellington This RCA CD reissue contains 19 Duke Ellington recordings from 1940-42 and 1945-46 and serves as a good introduction to Ellington's music of that era although veteran collectors will already have the material. Among the gems are the original version of "Take the 'A' Train," "I Got It Bad," "Perdido," "Caravan," a rendition of "It Don't Mean a ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.50!
16 view cover	At the Blackhawk, Vol. 4 (1959) more music like this by Shelly Manne & His Men Shelly Manne's 1959 quintet (with trumpeter Joe Gordon, tenor saxophonist Richie Kamuca, pianist Victor Feldman, bassist Monty Budwig, and the drummer/leader) was not his most important, but it was a hard-swinging unit well versed in bebop. Their three days at the Black Hawk (a popular San Francisco jazz club during this era) was almost completely ... see all copies from $9.92! new only from $9.92!
17 view cover	Ellington Is Forever, Vol. 2 (1977) more music like this by Kenny Burrell The modus operandi of Ellington Is Forever, Vol. 2 is essentially the same as the first; Kenny Burrell gathered a great bunch of musicians together in a studio for a relaxed yet masterful tour through some of Ellington's best-known material. The sole exception to the Ellingtonia is the Strayhorn-penned "Take the 'A' Train," a song that will ... see all copies from $12.99! new only from $16.34!
18 view cover	The Ellington Legacy (1999) more music like this by Duke Ellington see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
19 view cover	Best of Louis Armstrong [EMI] (2002) more music like this by Louis Armstrong see all copies from $5.35! new only from $5.35!
20 view cover	Mostly Duke (1982) more music like this by Milt Jackson The third of three sets released by Pablo from Milt Jackson's engagement at Ronnie Scott's Club in London in 1982 (this CD first came out in 1991) lives up to its title. The great vibraphonist, pianist Monty Alexander, bassist Ray Brown and drummer Mickey Roker play two standards, the leader's "Used to Be Jackson" and six songs associated with ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
21 view cover	The Complete Louis Armstrong & Duke Ellington Sessions (1961) more music like this by Louis Armstrong with Duke Ellington An album with Duke Ellingtion, this is a joyful collaboration by two of the greatest names in jazz. Tunes include "Mood Indigo," "Black and Tan Fantasy," and other Ellington pieces. Sideman Barney Bigard (cl) adds particular charm to "It Don't Mean a Thing." Bruce Boyd Raeburn, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.08!
22 view cover	Live at Shanghai Jazz (2002) more music like this by Marian McPartland It's long been an adage that true jazz is best enjoyed live in a club setting where anything goes, and discs like this offer genuine support for that idea. First the history: The legendary McPartland is host of the acclaimed NPR series Piano Jazz, and has released over 50 albums with Concord in 25 years (most of them archive documents from the ... see all copies from $3.74! new only from $10.45!
23 view cover	All or Nothing at All (1998) more music like this by Joey DeFrancesco see all copies from $9.97! new only from $11.03!
24 view cover	Jazz Piano Masters (1972) more music like this by Eubie Blake/Claude Hopkins/Dill Jones/Teddy Wilson The excerpts from this concert at the New School were a happy accident; the four pianists were hired to give engineering students a chance to practice recording live performances. Long out of print, this CD reissue adds MC John Hammond's insightful (if poorly recorded) introductions and a number of bonus tracks. Teddy Wilson's opening set is ... see all copies from $11.79! new only from $14.72!
25 view cover	Lightly and Politely (1961) more music like this by Betty Roché It is ironic that what is arguably singer Betty Roché's finest all-around recording was also her last. For this session, which has been reissued in the OJC series on CD, Roché (backed by pianist Jimmy Neeley, guitarist Wally Richardson, bassist Michel Mulia, and drummer Rudy Lawless) improvises constantly and uplifts a variety of superior ... see all copies from $6.17! new only from $10.35!
