1	Sinatra at the Sands (1966) more music like this by Frank Sinatra with Count Basie & the Orchestra In many ways, Sinatra at the Sands is the definitive portrait of Frank Sinatra in the '60s. Recorded in April of 1966, At the Sands is the first commercially released live Frank Sinatra album, recorded at a relaxed Las Vegas club show. For these dates at the Sands, Sinatra worked with Count Basie and his orchestra, which was conducted by Quincy ... see all copies from $6.24!
2	Thanks for the Memory: The Great American Songbook, Vol. 4 (2005) more music like this by Rod Stewart see all copies from $4.73! new only from $5.99!
3	The Great American Songbook [Box Set] (2005) more music like this by Rod Stewart A month after Rod Stewart's fourth volume of his ongoing (some might say never-ending) Great American Songbook series was released, all four of the albums were rounded up in a cardboard box and released as The Great American Songbook. Apart from a biographical essay from Alan Light and a couple of photographs, there is no new material here -- even ... see all copies from $27.05! new only from $49.20!
4	Songs for Swingin' Lovers! (1955) more music like this by Frank Sinatra After the ballad-heavy In the Wee Small Hours, Frank Sinatra and Nelson Riddle returned to up-tempo, swing material with Songs for Swingin' Lovers!, arguably the vocalist's greatest swing set. Like Sinatra's previous Capitol albums, Songs for Swingin' Lovers! consists of reinterpreted pop standards, ranging from the ten-year-old "You Make Me Feel ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $15.65!
5	At Last (2003) more music like this by Cyndi Lauper As the girl who just wants to have fun, Cyndi Lauper became an '80s music icon with her flamboyant style, powerful baby-doll voice, and quirky songs, but as time and tastes moved on, her playful persona wore thin and attempts at becoming a more serious artist failed to regain her dwindling audience. With At Last, Lauper steps even further away ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $10.00!
6	A Little Touch of Schmilsson in the Night [Bonus Tracks] (2006) more music like this by Harry Nilsson With A Little Touch of Schmilsson in the Night, Harry Nilsson was nearly a decade ahead of Linda Ronstadt and other nouveau crooners in hiring a conductor/arranger of the pre-rock era (in this case Gordon Jenkins) and recording an album of standards before a full orchestra. And he did it better than most, proving to be a marvelous interpreter of ... see all copies from $9.96! new only from $9.96!
7	The Complete Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong on Verve (1956) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong Almost all of these summit meetings have been in print virtually since CDs first appeared in listeners' lives, but never in one package. Here, you get all of Ella and Louis, the double-album sets Ella and Louis Again and Porgy and Bess, and two live tracks recorded at the Hollywood Bowl in 1956 -- all in an unusual three-CD album that partially ... see all copies from $34.49! new only from $39.53!
8	The Very Best of Julie London [2006] (2006) more music like this by Julie London The Very Best of Julie London offers an extensive overview of London's recording career with 50 selections she cut for Liberty Records between 1955 and 1969. The tracks are not newly remastered for the most part, but are taken from EMI's series of import two-fers and the domestic reissues Ron Furmanek and Bob Norberg produced in the early '90s. ... see all copies from $10.84! new only from $18.96!
9	Talk to Me (2007) more music like this by Joey McIntyre see all copies from $13.99! new only from $13.99!
10	Swingin' Miss 'D' (1998) more music like this by Dinah Washington see all copies from $11.26! new only from $11.26!
11 view cover	Q: The Musical Biography of Quincy Jones (2001) more music like this by Quincy Jones Although Rhino's four-disc box set, Q: The Musical Biography of Quincy Jones, was released to coincide with Quincy Jones' autobiography, and that's what gives the set the title, the set would have an appropriate moniker even if Jones hadn't put his life story to paper. That's because this box set really does tell his story, partially because its ... see all copies from $52.90! new only from $52.90!
12 view cover	Duchess of Coolsville: An Anthology (2005) more music like this by Rickie Lee Jones Duchess of Coolsville is Rhino's three-CD career retrospective of the work of singer and songwriter Rickie Lee Jones, an artist who changed the face of pop in the 1970s in her own way beginning with her surprise hit "Chuck E's in Love." Since that time she has continued on a highly personal, often idiosyncratic path; one that does not always give ... see all copies from $35.07! new only from $35.07!
13 view cover	L.A. Confidential [Soundtrack] (1997) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Noir detective fiction doesn't get much noirer than the novels of James Ellroy, who takes all the conventions of the genre -- a troubled, brooding protagonist who drinks too much but tries to do what's right while being pursued by rich, beautiful, but deeply flawed women and working at the margins of a society that wears a happy face to hide its ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $8.00!
14 view cover	The Still of the Night (2000) more music like this by Tom Wopat What's good for one Duke is good for another. TV and music trivia buffs no doubt remember when John Schneider launched a music career from his Dukes of Hazzard stardom with a cover of Elvis' "It's Now or Never." Years after Schneider's last country success, middle-aged co-star Wopat gives his pipes a shot on standards like "Where or When," "Makin' ... see all copies from $5.98! new only from $9.96!
15 view cover	The Tatum Group Masterpieces, Vol. 3 (1955) more music like this by Art Tatum The third of eight CDs matching the great pianist with a variety of classic jazzmen is the first of two that finds him in a trio with vibraphonist Lionel Hampton and drummer Buddy Rich; no weak spots in that group. Much of this music really burns. Scott Yanow, All Music Guide see all copies from $7.31! new only from $7.31!
16 view cover	Saloon Songs, Vol. 3 (1989) more music like this by Jimmy Roselli see all copies from $9.00! new only from $16.39!
17 view cover	As Time Goes By (1997) more music like this by Harry Nilsson Harry Nilsson was always a maverick artist, following his own sense of style down the hallways of pop, turning out carefully crafted -- even baffling -- songs that shared no direct affinity with any other artist of his day, although in some ways he resembled Randy Newman (even recording a marvelous album of Newman covers). Both men drew on ... see all copies from $2.00! new only from $9.04!
18 view cover	The Guitar Artistry of Charlie Byrd (1960) more music like this by Charlie Byrd Before he toured South America and discovered bossa nova, guitarist Charlie Byrd already had his recognizable sound formed. A master on the acoustic guitar who was well trained in classical music, Byrd performed regularly in Washington D.C. from 1958-60, recording for the tiny Offbeat label. This CD reissue of a set originally on Offbeat and then ... see all copies from $9.61! new only from $9.61!
19 view cover	Jazz Moments (1962) more music like this by George Shearing This album freed pianist George Shearing from the confines of his popular Quintet and showcases him in a trio with Ahmad Jamal's former sidemen (bassist Israel Crosby and drummer Vernel Fournier). Crosby, heard in his final recording, is in excellent form during these performances and receives some rare opportunities to solo. The main star as ... see all copies from $13.00! new only from $23.72!
20 view cover	The Complete Capitol Recordings (1949) more music like this by Art Tatum Previously released as two separate volumes, The Complete Capitol Recordings of Art Tatum is a two-disc collection that presents everything the pianist recorded for Capitol Records in chronlogical order. There's 20 solo sides from 1949 and a 1952 session with a trio of guitarist Everett Barksdale and bassist Slam Stewart. Throughout the collection ... see all copies from $8.85! new only from $8.85!
21 view cover	20th Century Piano Genius (1950) more music like this by Art Tatum This double album was taped at a private party in 1956, featuring the amazing Art Tatum on solo piano. Tatum, who died the following year, never did decline, and he is in prime form throughout this highly enjoyable and frequently exciting set of standards. There are no real romps a la "Tiger Rag" but the 27 performances contain plenty of ... see all copies from $5.82! new only from $19.88!
22 view cover	Crazy! Baby (1960) more music like this by Jimmy Smith Unlike most of the Jimmy Smith recordings from the era, this CD reissue (which adds "If I Should Lose You" and "When Lights Are Low" to the original LP program) features organist Jimmy Smith's regular group (rather than an all-star band). With guitarist Quentin Warren and drummer Donald Bailey completing the trio, Smith is heard in peak form on ... see all copies from $10.73! new only from $10.73!
23 view cover	The Best of the Pablo Solo Masterpieces (2003) more music like this by Art Tatum The Best of the Pablo Solo Masterpieces collects 20 tracks from the original seven-disc box set of recordings made by influential jazz pianist Art Tatum between 1953 and 1956. Featuring Tatum alone at the piano, producer Norman Granz intended these sessions as a spotlight for the artist, and as such, they deliver a portrait of the genius ... see all copies from $5.95! new only from $9.42!
24 view cover	Ella and Louis Again (1957) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong Over the years, there have been different incarnations of Ella and Louis Again, which has been a single LP, a two-LP set, a single CD, and a two-CD audiophile set from Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab. There are no compelling reasons why someone who already owns the audiophile version of Ella and Louis Again that Mobile Fidelity put out in 1995 would ... see all copies from $17.04! new only from $17.04!
25 view cover	Trio Jeepy (1988) more music like this by Branford Marsalis Branford Marsalis clearly had a lot of fun during this set. On seven of the ten numbers included on the double LP (the CD reissue actually has one less selection), Marsalis romps on tenor and soprano in a trio with veteran bassist Milt Hinton and drummer Jeff "Tain" Watts; the remaining three numbers have Delbert Felix in Hinton's place. The ... see all copies from $2.49!
