1	Sarah Vaughan with Clifford Brown (1954) more music like this by Sarah Vaughan and Clifford Brown This 1954 studio date, a self-titled album recorded for Emarcy, was later reissued as Sarah Vaughan with Clifford Brown to denote the involvement of one of the top trumpeters of the day. Vaughan sings nine intimate standards with a band including Brown on trumpet, Herbie Mann on flute, and Paul Quinichette on tenor, each of which have plenty of ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $14.48!
2	Compact Jazz: Sarah Vaughan (1954) more music like this by Sarah Vaughan The Compact Jazz budget series offers jazz newcomers an ideal way to sample some of best material from the post-bop years. The vocal titles are especially impressive, with nicely selected discs featuring Anita O'Day, Helen Merrill, Ella Fitzgerald, Dinah Washington, and Arthur Prysock. The Divine One, Sarah Vaughan, is appropriately given the best ... see all copies from $5.29! new only from $13.91!
3	Take It Off!: Striptease Classics (1997) more music like this by Various Artists David Rose's "The Stripper," with its now instantly recognizable bump-and-grind blare, was a fluke number one hit in 1962. It leads off this collection of early-'60s instrumental music specifically made (and, more to the point, marketed) with burlesque titillation in mind. Roulette Records was spurred to devise two entire instrumental LPs of "The ... see all copies from $16.65! new only from $16.65!
4	Golden Hits [Mercury/PolyGram] (1958) more music like this by Sarah Vaughan Concept work. Songs are certainly great, CD has six bonus cuts. Caveat is you can get it all elsewhere, in its rightful context. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
5	The Fabulous Baker Boys (1989) more music like this by Dave Grusin For one of Dave Grusin's most jazz-oriented film scores, the music used in The Fabulous Baker Boys (and included on this CD) has fairly straight-ahead originals played by a sextet (plus strings) that includes Grusin's keyboards, tenor saxophonist Ernie Watts and guitarist Lee Ritenour. In addition, Mercer Ellington put together a big band to ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $13.71!
6	New York Songs (1999) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $8.05! new only from $8.05!
7	Ella & Duke at the Côte D'Azur (1966) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald/Duke Ellington This two-disc package features highlights from several concerts by Duke Ellington and Ella Fitzgerald during the Le Festival International de Jazz d'Antibes-Juan-les-Pins in the south of France between July 26 and July 29, 1966. Both jazz legends are in top form throughout and the obvious affection between them results in some sublime musical ... see all copies from $11.12! new only from $20.63!
8	Songs of New York (1963) more music like this by Mel Tormé This thematic recording, with songs all relating to New York City, has vocalist Mel Tormé singing in fine fashion. Some of the familiar numbers are swingy, some stringy, but all are done with the heartfelt passion of a man who has lived in the Big Apple and has many tales to tell. Among some of the favorites are "Autumn in New York" with its ever ... see all copies from $11.11! new only from $11.11!
9	The Best of George Shearing, Vol. 2 (1960-169) (1960) more music like this by George Shearing The second volume in a series compiling the highlights of Shearing's tenure on Capitol, this Best of collection includes Shearing's own "Lullaby of Birdland" and Lester Young's "Jumpin' With Symphony Sid," recorded with the aid of sidemen like vibists Gary Burton and Eddie Costa along with drummers Vernell Fournier and Shelly Manne. Jason Ankeny ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $14.43!
10	At Newport (1957) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald & Billie Holiday Ella Fitzgerald & Billie Holiday at Newport presents the naturally intriguing results when Verve paired two sets recorded two days apart (over the 4th of July weekend, 1957) by the two best female singers of the 20th century. Unfortunately, circumstances weren't in their favor, as the combined factors of an unsympathetic band (for Fitzgerald) and ... see all copies from $7.49! new only from $10.29!
11 view cover	The Calling: Celebrating Sarah Vaughan (2001) more music like this by Dianne Reeves The ever-restless Dianne Reeves tries to do something unconventional with an utterly conventional idea -- a tribute album to Sarah Vaughan -- and ends up overdoing the whole thing, though it's not really her fault. While the virtuosic Reeves often cannot resist reaching down into her chest register for some daring, earthy, Sassy-like swoops ("Key ... see all copies from $3.61! new only from $8.50!
12 view cover	First Lady of Song (1949) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald This attractive three-CD set gives listeners an overview of Ella Fitzgerald's Verve recordings, although the inclusion of seven previously unissued cuts (in addition to 44 that are mostly available in more complete form elsewhere) will frustrate some completists. However the careful selection of representative performances along with the ... see all copies from $20.22! new only from $20.22!

14 view cover	Uniquely Mancini (1963) more music like this by Henry Mancini see all copies from $8.00!
15 view cover	An Evening with George Shearing & Mel Tormé (1982) more music like this by George Shearing with Mel Tormé Pianist George Shearing and singer Mel Tormé would match together perfectly every time they shared the stage; the mutual respect they had for each other was as obvious as the fact that they had very complementary styles. This CD, their first joint recording, is consistently exciting. With bassist Brian Torff making the group a trio, Shearing and ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $10.29!
16 view cover	To Ella with Love (1996) more music like this by Ann Hampton Callaway Ann Hampton Callaway has a strong reputation as one of the top cabaret singers of the 1990's but, unlike most others in that idiom, she is also a talented jazz singer. Callaway, who has a beautiful voice with a wide range, always swings while giving strong emphasis to the lyrics she is interpreting. Her ambitious and successful Ella Fitzgerald ... see all copies from $15.81! new only from $15.81!
17 view cover	The Best of Dianne Reeves (2002) more music like this by Dianne Reeves Dianne Reeves represents a multitude of styles and approaches, ranging from pop to R&B to straight jazz. The Best of Dianne Reeves provides the listener with a generous collection that emphasizes these opposites. "Better Days" from Dianne Reeves, along with "You Taught My Heart to Sing" and the title cut from I Remember, are light and pretty, ... see all copies from $15.98! new only from $15.98!
18 view cover	We All Love Ella: Celebrating the First Lady of Song [15 Tracks] (2007) more music like this by Various Artists Despite her name on the cover and her photos in the credits, Ella Fitzgerald's shadow doesn't loom over this tribute album, which is a good thing. A succession of female vocalists (plus Michael Bublé and Stevie Wonder) pay tribute to Fitzgerald with their own interpretations of her best-known standards. Despite the fact that few of the singers ... see all copies from $6.60! new only from $16.81!
19 view cover	Greatest Hits (1993) more music like this by The Four Freshmen Greatest Hits collects ten tracks recorded during the Four Freshmen's tenure with Capitol Records in the '50s including the original versions of "Graduation Day," "It's a Blue World," "Day by Day," and "When My Sugar Walks Down the Street." This collection is a good bargain for the budget-conscious. Al Campbell, All Music Guide see all copies from $4.17! new only from $7.39!
20 view cover	Mambo Diablo (1985) more music like this by Tito Puente Although he was never inactive, the 1980s found Tito Puente in a bit of a renaissance. His exciting Afro-Cuban jazz band had found a home on the Concord Picante label, and his music was increasing in popularity again. This particular CD has a stronger than usual repertoire, including "Take Five," "Lush Life" (done as Latin jazz), "Pick Yourself Up ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
21 view cover	Introducing Verve Jazz Masters, Vol. 20 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists At least this pocket-sized, budget-priced trip through 22 years of jazz doesn't pretend to be a definitive primer on jazz. It is simply and purely a sampler from the first 19 issues of Verve's Jazz Masters series; in other words, a sampler of a sampler. There is some clever segueing; the opening track, Louis Armstrong's "Just One of Those Things" ... see all copies from $13.91! new only from $13.91!
22 view cover	Black Orchid (1956) more music like this by Cal Tjader This CD has all of the music originally on the two LPs Cal Tjader Goes Latin and The Cal Tjader Quintet. Since each album had two sessions apiece, the CD does a fine job of giving one a sampling of the influential vibraphonist's popular Latin jazz groups of the era. Among the key sideman are flutist Paul Horn; Jose "Chombo" Silva on tenor; ... see all copies from $17.33! new only from $17.49!
23 view cover	Perfect Match (1988) more music like this by George Shearing with Ernestine Anderson Pianist George Shearing and singer Ernestine Anderson (who had teamed up briefly at the 1987 Fujitsu-Concord Jazz Festival) collaborated on this full-length Concord release. With strong assistance from bassist Neil Swainson and drummer Jeff Hamilton, Shearing and Anderson mostly stick to standards and their versions uplift the veteran songs. "Body ... see all copies from $4.94! new only from $10.44!
24 view cover	Black Magic (2004) more music like this by Stanley Black see all copies from $11.40! new only from $12.93!
25 view cover	'S Awful Nice (1958) more music like this by Ray Conniff and His Orchestra The third entry in Ray Conniff's series of neo-swing easy listening albums, 'S Awful Nice followed 'S Wonderful! and 'S Marvelous into hit status, reaching the Top Ten and spending a year in the charts. As ever, Conniff's writing was danceable, with his wordless choir carrying the melodies, doubled by the horn and reed sections. The song selection ... see all copies from $3.32! new only from $30.00!
