Judy at Carnegie Hall

Judy at Carnegie Hall (1961) more music like this

by Judy Garland

This 40th anniversary edition of Garland's seminal Judy at Carnegie Hall recording is a completely fresh experience even for those intimately familiar with previous versions. By accessing tapes which have not been used on any other release -- including the pricey DCC gold disc -- many sonic foibles which plagued the original have now been repaired ...

After Midnight: The Complete Session

After Midnight: The Complete Session (1956) more music like this

by Nat King Cole Trio

After several years of hearing criticism from the jazz press about his decision to break up his trio and become a pop singer, Nat "King" Cole was persuaded to record this jazz set. Joined by a strong rhythm section (including guitarist John Collins), Cole welcomed four guests for several selections apiece: altoist Willie Smith, trumpeter Harry ...

Conversations With Myself

Conversations With Myself (1963) more music like this

by Bill Evans

A classic of its kind. For this Verve project, Conversations With Myself, Bill Evans recorded three piano parts via overdubbing. Aptly titled, the music on this CD reissue has a surprising amount of spontaneity, with Evans constantly reacting to what he had just recorded, and the results are sometimes haunting. The highlights include "How About ...

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 ...

Just You, Just Me

Just You, Just Me (1994) more music like this

by Dave Brubeck

It had been nearly 40 years since Dave Brubeck's last solo piano recording when he recorded this relaxed set. Brubeck sounds typically creative yet often wistful on the seven standards, four originals, and a "Tribute to Stephen Foster." This is a fine addition to Brubeck's extensive yet consistently satisfying discography. Scott Yanow, All Music ...

Best of the Capitol Years (2002) more music like this

by Les Brown & His Band of Renown

With the Oscar Peterson Trio (1952) more music like this

by Lester Young and the Oscar Peterson Trio

Defying what has become conventional wisdom, tenor saxophonist Lester Young (when he was reasonably healthy) actually cut some of his greatest recordings in the 1950s. On this wonderful effort with pianist Oscar Peterson, guitarist Barney Kessel, bassist Ray Brown, and drummer J.C. Heard, Prez performs definitive versions of "Just You, Just Me" ...

Transcriptions (2005) more music like this

by Nat King Cole Trio

Between 1946 and 1950, the King Cole Trio recorded nearly 75 titles for Capitol's transcription service, songs that were then serviced to radio stations for airplay. Although Nat King Cole had formed the trio back in 1937, and the group had become immediately successful as a nightclub act, mainstream commercial success had eluded them until the ...

Live at Birdland

Live at Birdland (2003) more music like this

by John Pizzarelli

This is a wonderful, warm-hearted, and effortlessly virtuosic live recording by one of the finest living exponents of pre-bop small-ensemble jazz. With pianist Ray Kennedy and bassist Martin Pizzarelli (and on two songs joined by vocalist Grover Kemble), singer and guitarist John Pizzarelli runs through a generally lightweight but thoroughly ...

by Sarah Vaughan & Lester Young

This 1997 CD has music from a previously unreleased Town Hall concert. The program is split between the Lester Young sextet and Sarah Vaughan with the two principals only coming together on the final song, "I Cried for You."

Vintage Grappelli (2001) more music like this

by Stéphane Grappelli

Much has been written about the rebirth of older jazz styles at the beginning of the '70s, but violinist Stephane Grappelli never stopped playing classic swing. Furthermore, he provided a place for multiple guitarists like Martin Taylor to hone their skills and make a living. Vintage Grappelli is just that: two discs from 1981 that find the master ...

Idiosyncratic bandleader, would-be novelist, husband to the stars, and, oh yes, one of the finest clarinet players in jazz history, Artie Shaw fits the description on all counts, while also being responsible for one of the best catalogs of big-band and small group material from the years 1936-1955. Before career milestones like his big 1938 hit ...

Caution! Men Swinging (1957) more music like this

If you're ever going to make just one hard-driving, swinging-like-mad big-band recording, model it after Caution! Men Swinging. That was to be the destiny of Canadian-born Dennis Farnon, who wrote such whimsical material as "Mother Magoo Suite" and arranged for the movies. But on one day in Los Angeles in 1956, he gathered a large group of ...

Columbia Records had so neglected most of its classic jazz catalog, in terms of both the frequency and quality of reissues, that it was not a huge surprise when this combination of two LPs on one CD appeared on the Collectables label in 2000 -- the 75 minutes of music here represents some of the prime work of Benny Goodman's favorite arranger, ...

The Rosemary Clooney Show: Songs from the Classic Television Show (2004) more music like this

by Rosemary Clooney

Long after their favorite singers have passed, vocal fans still have many avenues to hear new (to them) recordings from the peak era of vocal jazz. Alternate takes aside, radio transcriptions and broadcast programs are the two usually plundered for reissue. While most are hastily packaged and terribly mastered, the best of them occur in settings ...
