1	Complete Prestige Recordings (2000) more music like this by Thelonious Monk Thelonious Monk was only with Prestige from 1952-1954, which explains why Fantasy's The Complete Prestige Recordings contains only three CDs. But Monk's Prestige output is noteworthy and generally rewarding, if imperfect at times. Not everything on The Complete Prestige Recordings is essential, but for the serious Monk collector, its rewards are ... see all copies from $21.92! new only from $21.92!
2	Capitol Collectors Series (1956) more music like this by Louis Prima What Louis Prima accomplished musically in the company of Sam Butera and the Witnesses and vocalist Keely Smith is in hard evidence on this excellent 26-track compilation. All the classics are aboard with excellent liner notes from Scott Shea and crisp transfers of the original masters ("Angelina-Zooma Zooma," "That Old Black Magic," "I've Got You ... see all copies from $4.29!
3	Eh, Paisano! 100% Italian-American Classics (1997) more music like this by Various Artists The concept behind Eh, Paisano! 100% Italian-American Classics -- namely, 18 tracks of pop standards and Italian songs from the '50s and '60s, sung by crooners like Dean Martin, Louis Prima, and Lou Monte -- may be a little cutesy, but it works surprisingly well. Even with tracks by pop acts like Jay & the Americans and Connie Francis, the album ... see all copies from $15.29! new only from $15.29!
4	Mirror (2007) more music like this by Jacky Terrasson Since winning the Thelonious Monk Piano competition in 1993, Jacky Terrasson has more than validated the judges' opinions with a consistently outstanding series of CDs. Mirrors provides a rare opportunity to enjoy Terrasson in a solo piano setting. He recasts the old favorite from the Duke Ellington songbook by mixing a different vamp, adding an ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $15.65!
5	Love, Love, Love (1990) more music like this by Jimmy Roselli see all copies from $10.00! new only from $16.39!
6	Jazz 'Round Midnight (1992) more music like this by Oscar Peterson '92 CD featuring the exemplary trio of pianist Oscar Peterson, guitarist Herb Ellis, and bassist Ray Brown. They've worked together for so long that their empathy and communication has been second nature. Peterson's solos and direction aren't just anticipated; sometimes Ellis and Brown seem to shift with him. Their interaction, dialogues, and ... see all copies from $6.50! new only from $9.15!
7	Macho Man (1978) more music like this by Village People Assembled by French producer Jacques Morali, who also struck gold with the outrageous Ritchie Family, the Village People took high camp and good spirits even farther over the top with their overtly gay-oriented disco. Masters of exploitation or attraction was always the debate as the band cruised through songs that were immediate club staples ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
8	Ultra-Lounge, Vol. 15: Wild Cool & Swingin' Too (1997) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $3.98! new only from $9.64!
9	Wild, Cool & Swingin (1956) more music like this by Louis Prima Capitol dug through their archives and produced Louis Prima's Wild, Cool & Swingin, a continuation of their popular Ultra Lounge series. Prima's two-CD retrospective includes some of his finest work for the label, including "That Old Black Magic," "Oh Marie," "Jump, Jive & Wail" and "Angelina/ Zooma Zooma." The set also features vocals from ... see all copies from $9.12! new only from $15.53!
10	Mickey Blue Eyes (1999) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to Mickey Blue Eyes, which stars Hugh Grant, Jeanne Tripplehorn and James Caan, features plenty of classic Italian-American vocal pop. Dean Martin's "On an Evening in Roma," Frank Sinatra's "Just in Time," Louis Prima's "Just a Gigolo," and Rosemary Clooney's "Mambo Italiano" are included, along with excerpts from Basil Poledouris' ... see all copies from $3.15! new only from $10.52!

13 view cover	The Wildest! [Expanded] (2002) more music like this by Louis Prima A veritable greatest-hits album, The Wildest! is the gem of Louis Prima's catalogue. None of his other efforts transcend its raunchy mix of demented gibberish, blaring sax, and explosive swing, which rocked as hard as anything released at the time. Almost all of Prima's signature songs are found here: "Just a Gigolo/I Ain't Got Nobody," "Oh Marie, ... see all copies from $10.73! new only from $10.73!
14 view cover	Do You Long for Oolong? (1999) more music like this by Joe Mooney Joe Mooney, who in the 1920s recorded as one of the Sunshine Boys, during the second half of the 1940s led a popular quartet comprised of his vocals and accordion, clarinetist Andy Fitzgerald, guitarist Jack Hotop, and bassist Gate Frega. A cross section of the group's best recordings from 1946-1947 (including some recently discovered acetates and ... see all copies from $10.11! new only from $10.11!
15 view cover	Buona Sera (2002) more music like this by Louis Prima Buona Sera is a perfectly serviceable collection of many of Louis Prima's biggest hits, but since the Capitol Collectors Series compilation contains many of the same tunes, and 26 tracks total versus 16 total here, that one is probably a smarter buy. Sean Westergaard, All Music Guide see all copies from $8.00! new only from $9.70!
16 view cover	Tracks (1970) more music like this by Oscar Peterson Oscar Peterson appeared on hundreds of recordings during his long career, though he made far too few solo albums. Tracks, recorded for MPS in 1970, is easily one of his finest efforts, with imaginative treatments of songs from several different decades. The stunning opener is "Give Me the Simple Life" (a piece written in the 1930s and revived as a ... see all copies from $4.44! new only from $11.26!

18 view cover	Just a Gigolo [Goldies] (2001) more music like this by Louis Prima see all copies from $9.29! new only from $15.36!
19 view cover	Golden Hits (2002) more music like this by Louis Prima This is an authorized Louis Prima compilation -- not by his record labels, but by his family -- and is on his own label. The tracks have been remastered and sound great. The performances were selected with regard for their continuity rather than historical chronology. Thom Jurek, All Music Guide see all copies from $7.04! new only from $14.92!
20 view cover	Sirius (1966) more music like this by Coleman Hawkins see all copies from $5.89! new only from $11.07!
21 view cover	Riffin' (2001) more music like this by Thelonious Monk Thelonious Monk's Columbia years in the 1960s aren't always given the same degree of attention as his earlier tenure with Blue Note and Riverside, but never has his eccentric genius for fractal-style composition and skittering, angular piano runs been so well recorded. Monk had found his most sympathetic sideman in tenor sax player Charlie Rouse ... see all copies from $4.50! new only from $4.50!
22 view cover	At the Five Spot (1958) more music like this by Thelonious Monk One of Thelonious Monk's finest bands was the quartet he led in 1958 that featured tenor-saxophonist Johnny Griffin. Griffin sounded quite comfortable playing Monk's music and his fiery style really inspired the pianist/composer. This two-LP set (whose contents are also available on Monk's massive CD box The Complete Riverside Recordings) has many ... see all copies from $11.26! new only from $11.26!
23 view cover	Live from the Cotton Club (2004) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $72.20! new only from $86.27!
24 view cover	Misterioso (1958) more music like this by Thelonious Monk This is the second long-player to be taken from the same August 1958 Five Spot recordings that had yielded the similarly brilliant Thelonious in Action The quartet heard on these sets includes Monk (piano), Johnny Griffin (tenor sax), Roy Haynes (drums), and Ahmed Abdul-Malik (bass). Their overwhelming and instinctual capacities directly ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $12.00!
