1	Guitar Trio: Paco de Lucia/John McLaughlin/Al Di Meola (1996) more music like this by Paco de Lucia/John McLaughlin/Al Di Meola Guitar Trio is an excellent collaborative effort from three of the finest jazz guitarists of the post-rock & roll era: Paco de Lucía, John McLaughlin, and Al di Meola. Throughout the record, the trio doesn't just showcase their instrumental skills; they demonstrate their musicality. This is sympathetic, emotional musicianship, where each musician ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $9.57!
2	Romances (1997) more music like this by Luis Miguel Luis Miguel's Romances is part of his series of records of classic Boleros. This time around, he hired Bebu Silvetti as musical director and arranger and Armando Manzanero as artistic director. Those two musicians wrote two new songs to augment the 13 classic love ballads from Argentina, Brazil and Mexico, and their impeccable taste, along with ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $7.74!
3	The Silver Collection: The Astrud Gilberto Album (1991) more music like this by Astrud Gilberto Astrud Gilberto has never been properly anthologized by Verve Records; although they've released a number of compilations over the years, none of them have been definitive, and most of them have been rather skimpy. 1987's The Silver Collection, originally released only in Europe but later imported to North America, is an idiosyncratic selection. ... see all copies from $10.14! new only from $10.14!
4	Brazilian Rhapsody (2000) more music like this by Daniel Barenboim & Milton Mascimento With tangos and Ellingtonia under his belt, this ever-curious occasional crossover classicist takes another break from the Berlin Staatsoper, the Chicago Symphony, and Bayreuth to dabble in an unfamiliar (to him) idiom. Though the results are about as spontaneous as a sunrise, this collection does cover a wide range of brief bits of Braziliana -- ... see all copies from $4.90! new only from $6.95!
5	Jazz 'Round Midnight: Astrud Gilberto (1996) more music like this by Astrud Gilberto see all copies from $10.06! new only from $10.06!
6	Pavarotti & Friends for Cambodia & Tibet (2000) more music like this by Luciano Pavarotti & Friends see all copies from $4.75! new only from $15.40!
7	Bossa Nova Brasil (1991) more music like this by Various Artists A good various-artists sampler of the modern Brazilian sound, including cuts from contemporary artists like Jorge Ben and Gilberto Gil. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $5.65! new only from $9.91!
8	Solo (1981) more music like this by Barney Kessel This is an unusual set, the only full-length program of unaccompanied guitar solos recorded by Barney Kessel. Although Kessel was not as skilled in solo work as Joe Pass, the music is relaxed, melodic and tasteful. The interpretations are concise and highlighted by "Brazil," "You Are the Sunshine of My Life," and "Alfie," although "People" could ... see all copies from $9.92! new only from $9.92!
9	Compact Jazz: Best of Bossa Nova (1987) more music like this by Various Artists Ah, boss nova American style: a sea of white dinner jackets shimmying to Getz, poolside. Beyond images from many a bossa soundtracked ‘60s movie, though, the music itself was something to behold. Teaching jazz a bit more about it's already graceful mien, bossa nova found its most regal stateside purveyor in Stan Getz. Getz's classic work with both ... see all copies from $5.90!
10	Acoustic (2006) more music like this by Toquinho Toquinho is truly a master of Brazilian music, primarily as an acoustic guitarist on this session devoted primarily to South American composers, occasionally utilizing an unidentified group of supporting musicians. The guitarist throws a bit of a curve to listeners with a marvelous arrangement of several themes by baroque giant Johann Sebastian ... see all copies from $15.15! new only from $15.15!

12 view cover	Tokyo Debut (1977) more music like this by Art Pepper After Art Pepper returned to the scene in 1975, it took him two years to get noticed outside of Los Angeles. His initial visit to Japan was a major turning point, and music from one of the very well-received concerts was released for the first time on this 1995 CD. Pepper performs four numbers -- "Cherokee," ahis original "The Spirit Is Here," a ... see all copies from $9.91! new only from $9.91!
13 view cover	Black Orpheus [1989 Verve Bonus Track] (1959) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The festive and haunting soundtrack to the classic Oscar-winning film Black Orpheus introduced Brazilian bossa nova to an entire world who quickly fell in love with its romantic themes of melancholy, and, to this day, it remains one of the most popular forms of world music. The soundtrack features the three main figureheads behind bossa nova, ... see all copies from $19.00!
14 view cover	Latin Byrd (1962) more music like this by Charlie Byrd This single CD reissues two complete Charlie Byrd LPs (Latin Impressions and Charlie Byrd's Bossa Nova), some of which had been available previously on a 1970s two-fer. Byrd, the master of the acoustic guitar whose gentle and lyrical style perfectly fit bossa nova, is heard in prime form on 23 rather pretty numbers. There are six unaccompanied ... see all copies from $12.95! new only from $16.34!
15 view cover	Gettin' Around (1965) more music like this by Dexter Gordon Dexter Gordon meets up with vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson, pianist Barry Harris, bassist Bob Cranshaw, and drummer Billy Higgins on this excellent hard bop date. Recorded during one of the great tenor's infrequent U.S. visits (he had moved to Europe in 1962), Gordon is in excellent form on six diverse selections that range from "Manha de Carnaval" ... see all copies from $3.50! new only from $11.94!
16 view cover	Two for the Road (1974) more music like this by Herb Ellis This recording was the third and final matchup between guitarists Herb Ellis and Joe Pass and, unlike the first two (which were both made for Concord), this is a duo date rather than a quartet session. Pass was just beginning to gain recognition for his remarkable unaccompanied solos, but Ellis had not recorded in such a sparse setting before. ... see all copies from $9.92! new only from $9.92!
17 view cover	Brazilian Rhapsody (1993) more music like this by Lee Konitz & Brazilian Band This CD focuses primarily on Brazilian standards performed by the Konitz sextet, except for the Brazilian-flavored "Lunasea," written by Peggy Stern, which features her high school choir. "Berimbau" is swinging and percussive, while the well-known "Insensatez" takes many unexpected turns. "Triste" is also a familiar theme played with relish. ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $3.99!
18 view cover	Byrdland/More Brazilian Byrd (2001) more music like this by Charlie Byrd There is something immediately warm and accessible about Charlie Byrd's acoustic guitar. Byrdland, which was originally released in 1966, and More Brazilian Byrd, released in 1967, find Byrd playing two widely different sets. On the first, he is joined by bassist Joe Byrd, drummer Bill Reichenbach, trumpeter Hal Posey, and saxophonist Teo Macero. ... see all copies from $7.35! new only from $7.35!
19 view cover	Nha Mundo (My World) (2003) more music like this by Maria de Barros Although she was born in nearby Senegal, Maria de Barros has made her musical home in Cape Verde, where she brings her warm, sensual voice and original creative vision to bear on the mornas and coladeiras of her adopted home and on the boleros and sambas that came to the islands from Brazil and the Caribbean. Those who are already familiar with ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $7.71!

21 view cover	You Must Believe in Music (1996) more music like this by Gary Sivils see all copies from $1.99! new only from $18.45!
22 view cover	Orfeu [17 Tracks] (2000) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Orfeu is the soundtrack to Cacá Diegues' remake of 1959's Black Orpheus, an award-winning movie that introduced contemporary Rio de Janeiro composers like Antonio Carlos Jobim, Luiz Bonfá, and Vinícius de Moraes to mainstream Americans. As such, it's fitting that Brazil's most famous musical export during the last few decades of the century, ... see all copies from $5.55! new only from $15.92!
23 view cover	The Duo Sessions (2000) more music like this by Ray Brown & Jimmy Rowles Two classic and influential releases by bassist Ray Brown and pianist Jimmy Rowles comprise this box set reissued as The Duo Sessions. The set includes As Good as It Gets originally released in 1978 and Tasty, which was originally released in 1980. The duo plays songs from the Great American Songbooks of Cole Porter, Duke Ellington, George ... see all copies from $9.70! new only from $9.70!
24 view cover	Carnaval (1990) more music like this by Ron Carter This is actually billed as a leaderless date, possibly instigated by this quartet's alto player, Sadao Watanabe, as it's a concert from 1978 in his native Japan. It's an exuberant, well-recorded set with all hands in good form. Speaking of the saxophonist, it is, fortunately, Watanabe the bebopper, not his fuzak-peddling alter ego. Bristling with ... see all copies from $9.39! new only from $9.39!
25 view cover	Devocean (2007) more music like this by Levi Chen see all copies from $6.55! new only from $22.00!
