2	Anniversary! (1987) more music like this by Stan Getz As he did to celebrate his 50th birthday, Stan Getz performed at the Montmartre Club in Copenhagen at the time of his 60th birthday. This enjoyable set (mostly lengthy versions of standards) finds the veteran tenor still very much in his prime and greatly assisted by pianist Kenny Barron, bassist Rufus Reid and drummer Victor Lewis. Worth picking ... see all copies from $6.50! new only from $11.26!
3	The Concert Sound of Henry Mancini (1964) more music like this by Henry Mancini The Concert Sound of Henry Mancini is not a live album.

The concerts were well-received, but instead of releasing a live recording from the tour, Mancini assembled a 70-piece ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $18.37!
4	Catch a Rising Star/Encore (2002) more music like this by John Gary This discount two-fer appropriately pairs John Gary's first two RCA Victor albums, Catch a Rising Star and Encore, the former recorded at sessions in July and August 1963, the latter immediately after, in September and October.

5	Try a Little Tenderness/I'm Glad There Is You (1998) more music like this by Gloria Lynne Both Try a Little Tenderness and I'm Glad There Is You are fine examples of Gloria Lynne's exceptional vocal talents, showcasing her way with a ballad. While songs like "Indian Love Call" and "Bali Ha'I" aren't suited for her warm, engaging voice, most of the disc is devoted to songs like "Old Man River," "Stella By Starlight," "A Hundred Years ... see all copies from $8.93! new only from $9.82!
6	Love Is the Thing (1957) more music like this by Nat King Cole This 1996 gold audiophile CD reissue of a 1956 Nat "King" Cole vocal set is augmented by three numbers taken from his similar 1963 album Where Did Everyone Go? By the mid-'50s, Cole was primarily known to the general public as a superb ballad vocalist, and he sticks exclusively to that role on these 15 selections, which include "When I Fall in ... see all copies from $5.81!
7	Hollywood in Rhythm (1959) more music like this by Ray Conniff Hollywood in Rhythm is the third album in Ray Conniff's thematic In Rhythm series. Previous installments were devoted to classical and Broadway tunes, while this one presents songs and themes from films.

8	Big Fat Brass/Bill's Bag (2001) more music like this by Billy May Brass jazzman Billy May sees his 1958 and 1963 LPs get the two-fer treatment on this 2001 CD release from EMI. Chris True, All Music Guide see all copies from $8.67! new only from $8.67!
9	A Rose in the Desert (2002) more music like this by Billy Novick Clarinetist and saxophonist Billy Novick had been a familiar presence on the Boston jazz and acoustic music scene for almost a quarter of a century when he recorded this very pleasant straight-ahead jazz album in 2001. Accompanied by fellow Boston-area stalwarts Paul Schmeling (piano), Marshall Wood (bass), and Billy Reynolds (drums) and joined on ... see all copies from $48.37! new only from $48.37!

14 view cover	Harlem Lullaby (1933) more music like this by The Dorsey Brothers Orchestra Although the Dorsey Brothers band gets first billing on this album, the studio groups (which include trumpeter Bunny Berigan, trombonist Tommy Dorsey and Jimmy Dorsey on clarinet and alto) are actually in a subsidiary role on these performances, accompanying singers Bing Crosby, Mildred Bailey and Ethel Waters. Crosby and Waters are on four ... see all copies from $10.36! new only from $10.36!
15 view cover	Just a Bowl of Cherries (1993) more music like this by Al Bowlly Choosing an Al Bowlly compilation to rate above all the others is a difficult proposition, since the fine British big band singer recorded thousands of titles and his CD compilations tend to be either exhaustively complete series or scattershot single discs. The Pearl Flapper compilation Just a Bowl of Cherries is slightly scattershot, but it ... see all copies from $16.34! new only from $16.34!

17 view cover	Alone Together (2001) more music like this by Enrico Pieranunzi Quartet European jazz musicians don't always get the recognition they deserve worldwide.

Howard Alden, one of the greatest guitarists of his generation, tends to play the precise ... see all copies from $22.87! new only from $22.87!
