1	The Savoy Story, Vol. 1: Jazz (1999) more music like this by Various Artists The old Savoy catalog gets bounced around from one distributor to the next like an unwanted foster child, with everyone starting from scratch once they get a hold of it. By 1999, it was Atlantic's turn and, hot on the heels of other label retrospectives, they have compiled a very good three-CD anthology of Savoy's jazz activities over 15 years in ... see all copies from $30.84! new only from $30.84!
2	The Chase! (1970) more music like this by Gene Ammons with Dexter Gordon Although Gene Ammons received first billing, his fellow tenor Dexter Gordon is an equal partner on this exciting live bebop set. Expanded from the original LP with a previously unissued ballad medley and a full-length 17-minute rendition of "Wee Dot," and this CD is highly recommended to fans of tenor battles and straight-ahead jazz. "Wee Dot" and ... see all copies from $8.92! new only from $8.92!
3	Swing Shift (1999) more music like this by The Count Basie Orchestra & Grover Mitchell Rolling on into the neo-swing era, the Basie band under the leadership of Grover Mitchell continues to display a spirit most unlike that of your average ghost band. More encouragingly to the point, the band is playing mostly new pieces here, seven from the pen of Allyn Ferguson and four from longtime Basie band trumpeter Bob Ojeda. Some are really ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $14.79!
4	The Legendary Big Band 1943-1947 (2002) more music like this by Billy Eckstine The Legendary Big Band 1943-1947 features 42 of Billy Eckstine's most memorable songs as played by one of the most powerful bebop big bands in jazz history. A powerful singer with a resonant baritone voice, trumpeter and valve trombonist William Clarence Eckstine, a former member of the Earl Hines Orchestra, formed his own band in 1943 after the ... see all copies from $27.00! new only from $27.00!

6	Count Basie & Friends: 100th Birthday Bash (2004) more music like this by Count Basie Count Basie & Friends: 100th Birthday Bash is, quite simply, a stunningly remastered double-disc collection of Basie collaborations and presentations of smaller subgroups under his umbrella during his tenure with Roulette and recorded in the late '50s, though a couple of sides ("I Want a Little Girl" and "The Late Late Show") were issued ... see all copies from $20.65! new only from $20.65!

8	Timeless Billy Eckstine (2002) more music like this by Billy Eckstine Timeless Billy Eckstine represents a nice single-disc overview of the bop stylings that influential vocalist recorded during the late '40s. Although there are better and more representative compilations out there, the Savoy Timeless series is a nice place for curious listeners to start.

9	Prisoner of Love: The Romantic Billy Eckstine (2006) more music like this by Billy Eckstine This 15-track set puts together some amazing performances by Billy Eckstine's band from the early '40s when he was leading one of the more intense, smoking bands on the scene. Some of his players during these years included Fats Navarro, Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Dexter Gordon, and Kenny Dorham, just to name a few. The Eckstine ... see all copies from $11.27! new only from $11.27!

11 view cover	Settin' the Pace [Proper] (2001) more music like this by Dexter Gordon One of the most important yet overlooked figures in jazz is given his due with this amazing four-disc set on Proper. Going for the label's usual bargain-basement rate (roughly 20 dollars a pop), Settin' the Pace rounds up 55 of the tenor innovator's bop sides from the latter half of the '40s. Replete with a handsome and bulky booklet full of ... see all copies from $34.59! new only from $34.59!
12 view cover	Blue Dex: Dexter Gordon Plays the Blues (1969) more music like this by Dexter Gordon This single CD anthology is chock-full of the mighty Dexter Gordon (tenor sax) as leader or as primary participant in seven selections showcasing his surprisingly wide array of interpretive skills within the blues. While the majority of the contents have been culled from Gordon's late-'60s and early-'70s Prestige output, the update of Jay McShann ... see all copies from $9.91! new only from $9.91!
