1	The Genius of Ray Charles (1959) more music like this by Ray Charles Some players from Ray Charles' big band are joined by many ringers from the Count Basie and Duke Ellington bands for the first half of this program, featuring Charles belting out six songs arranged by Quincy Jones. "Let the Good Times Roll" and "Deed I Do" are highlights, and there are solos by tenorman David "Fathead" Newman, trumpeter Marcus ... see all copies from $8.57! new only from $8.57!
2	The Best of Ray Charles: The Atlantic Years (1994) more music like this by Ray Charles Taking one of the most interesting bodies of work in the history of American music and trying to narrow it down to one 20-song compact disc would seem to be the sort of project that's doomed to failure, and there's little arguing that this collection of Ray Charles's classic Atlantic Records sides merely skims the surface of some of the most ... see all copies from $7.82! new only from $14.93!
3	The Very Best of Nancy Wilson: The Capitol Recordings 1960-1976 (2007) more music like this by Nancy Wilson The career of Nancy Wilson has been compiled many times and in many ways, but never like this. Focusing in-depth on her Capitol recordings during the 15 years of her prime, this three-disc set is a wonderful collection for those who appreciate Wilson's ability to combine Broadway power and finesse with jazz rhythm (and a certain degree of ... see all copies from $17.64! new only from $17.64!
4	Jazz Moods: 'Round Midnight (2005) more music like this by Aretha Franklin With a stellar career that spans several decades, genres and hits, it's easy to forget that Aretha Franklin had her moment in the sun as an outstanding vocalist in the jazz arena. This edition in Sony's Jazz Moods series seeks to bring that avenue of her career back into the spotlight, as it has been largely overshadowed by her soul and gospel ... see all copies from $11.02! new only from $11.02!
5	Just for a Thrill (2004) more music like this by Ronnie Milsap Just for a Thrill was first put into motion in 2000 when producer Jerry F. Sharell approached Ronnie Milsap about recording a standards project. Sharell proposed over 150 songs to Milsap, which were then whittled down to 40 and finally the 14 included on this Image release. Milsap's voice is in great shape. His vocals and piano complement the ... see all copies from $8.49! new only from $14.10!
6	Night Club (2000) more music like this by Patricia Barber Chicago native and classically trained pianist Patricia Barber's sixth album is a collection of downtempo standards, perfect for a rainy day. Taking on classics like "Autumn Leaves," "I Fall in Love Too Easily," "Bye Bye Blackbird," or even "Alfie" is always a risk, but her confident vocals and interpretations eradicate any doubt that she is a ... see all copies from $15.98! new only from $15.98!
7	Save Your Love for Me: Nancy Wilson Sings the Great Blues Ballads (2005) more music like this by Nancy Wilson Excelling at the art of blues balladry demands that a musician possess great feeling but also great control. No surprise then, that one of its greatest practitioners, Nancy Wilson, has both traits in abundance. Save Your Love for Me: Nancy Wilson Sings the Great Blues Ballads is one in a loose series of three Capitol compilations to compile her ... see all copies from $12.95! new only from $12.95!
8	The Great Kai & J. J. (1960) more music like this by J.J. Johnson with Kai Winding This Impulse set (which was given the catalog number of A-1 when it first came out) was the first recorded reunion of trombonists J.J. Johnson and Kai Winding. Given a straight reissue on CD (the original liner notes are reproduced so small as to be largely unreadable), the music still sounds fresh and lively. With pianist Bill Evans, either Paul ... see all copies from $5.84! new only from $13.71!
9	22 Original Recordings (1988) more music like this by Jimmy Dorsey & His Orchestra see all copies from $6.47! new only from $8.98!
10	The Definitive Soul Collection (2006) more music like this by Ray Charles Rhino's 2006 double-disc set The Definitive Soul Collection is the latest in a long list of Ray Charles compilations from Rhino, and it covers much of the same territory as the others: namely, it's a selection of highlights from his classic Atlantic recordings from the '50s. Since it doesn't have any of Ray's ABC sides of the '60s, it can't quite ... see all copies from $17.90! new only from $17.90!
11 view cover	Just for a Thrill (2005) more music like this by Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings Ever since leaving the Rolling Stones, Bill Wyman has been keeping a low profile -- which isn't quite the same thing as keeping quiet. About a decade after quitting the world's greatest rock & roll band, he formed the Rhythm Kings, a loose collective of friends, pros, and all-stars, all gathered to play the blues, soul, R&B, and old-time rock & ... see all copies from $15.28! new only from $15.28!
12 view cover	The Ultimate Collection (2007) more music like this by Kay Starr see all copies from $25.32! new only from $25.32!
13 view cover	Dream (1986) more music like this by Susannah McCorkle Susannah McCorkle, one of the finest jazz-influenced vocalists to emerge during the 1970's and 80's, sings a wide variety of music on her Pausa disc. In addition to some prebop material (including Cole Porter's "At Long Last Love," a vocalese version of "All Of Me," "I Get A Kick Out Of You" and Johnny Mercer's title cut), she also tackles tunes ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.71!
14 view cover	Back to Earth (1998) more music like this by Lisa Ekdahl/Peter Nordahl Trio At first, Lisa Ekdahl's squeaky, girlish voice may seem inappropriate for the pop standards she has chosen to make her trade, but given some time, her voice and laid-back style become endearing. True, she occasionally seems mannered and borrows heavily from her inspirations (most notably Billie Holiday), but she shows signs of developing her own ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $11.06!
15 view cover	A Jazz Romance: A Night in With Verve (2001) more music like this by Various Artists In jazz, ballads have a way of separating the men from the boys and the women from the girls. They show what an improviser is made of emotionally. On ballads, technique for the sake of technique doesn't cut it -- you have to bring some genuine feeling and honest-to-God emotion to the table. And there is plenty of honest-to-God emotion on this four ... see all copies from $24.33! new only from $24.33!
16 view cover	One on One (2000) more music like this by Clark Terry Right in the middle of celebrating his 79th birthday, Clark Terry went into the studio for several days to record 14 duets with a different pianist on each track, with many of them being veterans of many record dates and/or concerts with him. Terry remains one of the most easily identifiable trumpeters and flügelhorn players in jazz, so much so ... see all copies from $17.01! new only from $17.01!
17 view cover	Just for a Thrill (1996) more music like this by Lannie Garrett see all copies from $2.66! new only from $2.66!
18 view cover	Everything Under the Sun (2006) more music like this by The Walker Brothers Everything under the sun from the Walker Brothers' studio output is indeed here on this five-CD box set. It not only has everything from their mid-'60s prime on the first three CDs, but also the more neglected (though considerably less impressive) three albums or so they did in the mid- to late '70s after reuniting. There are also 13 previously ... see all copies from $69.71! new only from $69.71!
19 view cover	Just for a Thrill (2006) more music like this by Pamela Rose Pamela Rose has a strong and versatile voice that is heard at its best on slower material when she expresses beauty through long notes. However, she also swings well at medium tempos. On Just for a Thrill, a wide-ranging program conceived by Rose and guitarist Danny Caron, she is joined on various selections by two different organ groups, a pair ... see all copies from $3.95! new only from $13.99!
20 view cover	Jazz to Soul (1992) more music like this by Aretha Franklin She's Billie Holiday. No, she's Ella Fitzgerald. No, wait, she's Dinah Washington. The conventional wisdom on Aretha Franklin's tenure at Columbia Records is that the label didn't know what to do with her, and that may be true, but you can't say they didn't try. On these 39 recordings, spread across two discs and cut between 1960 and 1965, ... see all copies from $17.76! new only from $17.76!
21 view cover	Pretty Things (1970) more music like this by Lou Donaldson Lou Donaldson has recorded many strong sessions throughout his career but this CD reissue brings back one of the less-significant ones. Organist Leon Spencer dominates the ensembles, the material is a bit trivial and the altoist/leader uses a baritone sax on some of the selections which makes him sound much less individual than usual. Trumpeter ... see all copies from $49.99!
22 view cover	To Each His Own (2001) more music like this by The Ink Spots The first modern black vocal group, the Ink Spots featured jazzy, sophisticated harmony arrangements behind the strong leads of singers Deek Watson and Bill Kenny. Although the To Each His Own collection probably isn't the place to start, it does have the Spots' wonderful version of Duke Ellington's "Don't Get Around Much Anymore" and a fine take ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $11.18!
23 view cover	The Music of Lil Hardin Armstrong (1988) more music like this by Lillette Jenkins Lillette Jenkins is a little-known but reasonably talented pianist/vocalist who makes her debut as a leader on this CD. However, this set is much less about Jenkins as it is about Lil Hardin and her music. Chris Albertson's liner notes shed a great deal of light on Hardin's later life. 14 of Lil's songs are explored by four different groups on the ... see all copies from $13.51! new only from $13.51!
24 view cover	The Soul of Seduction (1996) more music like this by Various Artists This two-disc compilation brings together 30 Sony Music R&B artists performing songs about sex. Though the selections come from as early as Aretha Franklin's 1962 "Just for a Thrill" and as late as Babyface's 1989 "Whip Appeal," most date from the 1970s, when such artists as the Manhattans, Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes (featuring Teddy ... see all copies from $12.25! new only from $18.00!
25 view cover	My Flame (1992) more music like this by Jim Nichols & Morning see all copies from $3.48! new only from $14.11!
