1	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!
2	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!
3	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!
4	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!
5	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!
6	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!
7	Buona Sera: The Best, the Wildest (1999) more music like this by Louis Prima see all copies from $20.98! new only from $20.98!
8	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!
9	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!
10	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!
11 view cover	The Bachelor (1999) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to The Bachelor features eclectic songs like David Byrne's version of "Don't Fence Me In," Buster Poindexter's "Hit the Road, Jack," Billy May's "Hernando's Hideaway" and Louis Prima's "Just a Gigolo/I Ain't Got Nobody." More romantic tracks like Jane Powell's "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face," Bob Marley's "Could You Be Loved" and ... see all copies from $1.99!
12 view cover	Best of the War Years (2003) more music like this by Louis Prima & His Orchestra While it would have been more preferable for Stardust to issue the complete V-Disc sessions of Louis Prima & His Orchestra, this 23-track selection of his recordings between 1944 and 1950 is pretty tight and presented expertly for a decent price. The bands Prima kept during the war years were remarkably consistent in personnel (Leon, Louis' ... see all copies from $10.83! new only from $10.83!
13	Jump Jive An' Wail (1958) more music like this by Louis Prima see all copies from $65.88!
14 view cover	Ultra-Lounge: Tiki Sampler (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Capitol's virtually unending series of lounge/exotica compilations gets its own retrospective with Ultra Lounge: Tiki Sampler, a collection of tracks from several volumes of the Ultra Lounge series plus On the Rocks, Vols. 1-2 and single-artist sets devoted to Jackie Gleason, Martin Denny and Les Baxter. It's not a bad buy at that, distilling ... see all copies from $18.23! new only from $18.23!
15 view cover	The Capitol Recordings (1956) more music like this by Louis Prima This excellent eight-disc Bear Family box celebrates Louis Prima's Capitol Recordings of the '50s and '60s. Since his wife and comedic foil Keely Smith and Sam Butera and the Witnesses (Prima's ace backing unit) both recorded as solo acts during this period, they're exhaustively represented by this box as well. The first three discs cover all of ... see all copies from $180.02! new only from $180.02!
16 view cover	One Hundred Anniversaire (2001) more music like this by Louis Armstrong At four discs, One Hundred Anniversaire is a very detailed collection of Louis Armstrong's music. Although it is by no means a complete collection, there is quite a lot of music here to digest, especially when taken into consideration that most of his biggest hits are not even on the album. What we get instead is a fairly solid collection of ... see all copies from $18.10! new only from $18.10!
17 view cover	Jump N Jive (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Capitalizing on the swing craze, Blue Note has issued this compilation that pulls from the vaults at Aladdin, Black & White, Blue Note and Capitol. This collection stands out from the pack, however, because of the seminal role that each of those labels played in the history of swing. Some of the greatest dance songs of the swing era are featured ... see all copies from $2.99!
