1	Stardust: The Great American Songbook, Vol. 3 (2004) more music like this by Rod Stewart see all copies from $2.37! new only from $7.00!
2	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!
3	Smoke Gets in Your Eyes: Best of Dinah Washington (1999) more music like this by Dinah Washington Dinah Washington could sing any song and make it sound like everybody's life depended on it. An awe-inspiring jazz vocalist with roots in the R&B scene of the 1940s, she gradually evolved into a pop star during the '50s and would have matured marvelously were it not for an accidental prescription drug overdose that took her out at the age of 39 on ... see all copies from $12.41! new only from $12.41!
4	This Guy's in Love (2003) more music like this by Steve Tyrell When Steve Tyrell's version of "The Way You Look Tonight" found its way onto the soundtrack for 1991's Father of the Bride, chances are he had no idea that it would eventually lead to a second career incarnation as a pop/jazz vocalist. After years of working in the shadows as a songwriter and producer, Tyrell suddenly found himself in the ... see all copies from $4.20! new only from $5.50!
5	What a Diff'rence a Day Makes! (1959) more music like this by Dinah Washington One of the more notorious albums in the history of vocal music, What a Diff'rence a Day Makes! is the lush session that bumped up Dinah Washington from the "Queen of the Blues" to a middle-of-the-road vocal wondress -- and subsequently disenfranchised quite a few jazz purists. Washington had been praised in the same breath as Holiday and ... see all copies from $4.00! new only from $15.43!
6	Verve Jazz Masters 51 (1996) more music like this by Blossom Dearie Long an icon among jazz musicians and fans alike, this album samples tunes from the six albums Blossom Dearie made for Norman Granz' Verve label during the period 1956 to 1960. Dearie doesn't have a particularly big voice, but, like a will-o-wisp, she skirts through her material in a whispery, smoky tone that demands and receives attention from ... see all copies from $4.95! new only from $9.91!
7	What a Wonderful World (2003) more music like this by Emile Pandolfi see all copies from $7.77! new only from $11.83!
8	In Love Again (2002) more music like this by Stacey Kent Stacey Kent is back, with her regular combo, for an engaging tribute to Richard Rodgers. In addition to routinely covered songs like "It Never Entered My Mind" and "Bewitched," the Britain-based vocalist looks to the South Pacific book and comes up with two items seldom performed in a jazz context -- "I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair" ... see all copies from $9.62! new only from $14.31!
9	A Night Out With Verve (2000) more music like this by Various Artists A Night Out With Verve highlights five decades of remarkable jazz taken from the Verve catalog, spread out over four discs titled "Wining," "Dining," "Dancing," and "Romancing." This budget-priced box set includes 65 performances from jazz luminaries including Oscar Peterson, Sonny Rollins, Michel Legrand, Sarah Vaughan, Stan Getz, Louis Armstrong ... see all copies from $12.68! new only from $24.40!
10	The Very Best of the Rodgers and Hart Song Book (2007) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald After the initial impact of her first songbook venture (Cole Porter) in early 1956, Ella Fitzgerald returned to the studio quickly with the same arranger/conductor (Buddy Bregman) and recorded nearly three dozen songs from the pens of Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart. Released just six months after the Porter volume, Sings the Rodgers and Hart Song ... see all copies from $4.20! new only from $4.20!
11 view cover	I Happen to Like New York/Valente on T.V. (2004) more music like this by Caterina Valente This two-fer from Dutton Vocalion features a pair of out of print LPs by easy listening vocalist Caterina Valente: I Happen to Like New York and Valente on T.V., both originally issued in 1964. These 23 remastered tracks find the singer at the top of her vocal excellence interpreting selections from the songbooks of Cole Porter, Ellington & ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $20.09!
12 view cover	Romantic Hits/Mantovani by Mantovani (2005) more music like this by Mantovani see all copies from $14.90! new only from $19.55!
13 view cover	The Girl I Left Home For (1956) more music like this by Gwen Verdon Broadway star Gwen Verdon didn't make too much of a dent in the jazz-pop market, but this fine album from the late '50s makes one wish she had. Cut after she had established herself in productions of Can-Can and Damn Yankees, The Girl I Left Home For finds Verdon reveling in fine selection of rarely heard Tin Pan Alley songs -- in a jazz context ... see all copies from $13.00! new only from $14.22!
14 view cover	Live at Birdland (2003) more music like this by John Pizzarelli This is a wonderful, warm-hearted, and effortlessly virtuosic live recording by one of the finest living exponents of pre-bop small-ensemble jazz. With pianist Ray Kennedy and bassist Martin Pizzarelli (and on two songs joined by vocalist Grover Kemble), singer and guitarist John Pizzarelli runs through a generally lightweight but thoroughly ... see all copies from $13.24! new only from $14.75!
15 view cover	Sings the Rodgers and Hart Song Book (1956) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald The second of Ella Fitzgerald's famed Songbook series features her singing 34 of the best songs co-written by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart. The arrangements by Buddy Bregman for the string orchestra and big band only border on jazz but she manages to swing the medium-tempo numbers and give sensitivity to the ballads. With such songs as "You ... see all copies from $13.00! new only from $26.65!
16 view cover	66 2/3 (2005) more music like this by The Frank & Joe Show The Frank & Joe Show's second CD continues in the same vein as their debut recording. Frank Vignola, a superb Django Reinhardt-inspired guitarist, and drummer Joe Ascione, a monster percussionist who plays a subtler role in this group than typical outings, once again explore a wide range of musical styles, including standards, classical works, ... see all copies from $14.93! new only from $14.93!
17 view cover	Skylark (1956) more music like this by Annie Ross This little-known set (reissued on CD) from 1956 features singer Annie Ross four years after she originally recorded "Twisted" but a year before the formation of Lambert, Hendricks & Ross. Based in London at the time, Ross avoids scatting and vocalese in favor of conventional swinging and jazz-oriented interpretations of standards. Backed ... see all copies from $8.91! new only from $8.91!
18 view cover	Dinah Washington for Lovers (2006) more music like this by Dinah Washington Although a little slim at 45 minutes, Verve's compilation of 11 romantic titles recorded by Dinah Washington includes some of her finest material. Concentrating on the mid- to late '50s, Dinah Washington for Lovers surveys the years when she finally bloomed as a popular purveyor of adult vocal jazz. Surprisingly, it doesn't include the most ... see all copies from $10.06! new only from $10.06!
19 view cover	Rugolovations (2005) more music like this by Pete Rugolo see all copies from $19.58! new only from $19.58!
20 view cover	The Piano [Bonus Tracks] (2004) more music like this by Herbie Hancock Recorded after the funky fusion of Head Hunters, Thrust, Sextant, and other electric albums, and before the dawn of "Rockit" and more commercially viable and hip-hop-oriented material, Herbie Hancock took time out in 1978 to touch base again with his piano. Recorded completely solo, and live, direct to disc, where the tape is rolling and the ... see all copies from $10.77! new only from $10.77!
21 view cover	Timeless (2002) more music like this by Marian McPartland A collection of Marian McPartland trio recordings from 1952-1953, Timeless offers only 13 tracks, but they are certainly quality recordings at that. McPartland is heard in the studio and on six live recordings by Rudy Van Gelder made at the Hickory House in New York City. The cool-toned bop pianist begins playfully ("Strike Up the Band"), but also ... see all copies from $9.29! new only from $9.29!
22 view cover	New York for Lovers (2005) more music like this by Various Artists This 11-song installment in the excellent For Lovers series features compositions cultivated from the Verve and Decca archive paying homage to the Big Apple.

23 view cover	After Fajr (2005) more music like this by Ahmad Jamal Ahmad Jamal leads his long-running trio with electric bassist James Cammack and drummer Idris Muhammad for these 2004 studio sessions. Mixing it up with four standards and five originals, the trio sounds as if they have just completed a several-week tour playing these numbers every night. Jamal begins "I'm Old Fashioned" in a fairly straight-ahead ... see all copies from $4.95! new only from $11.24!
24 view cover	Kissing Jessica Stein (2002) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Romantic comedies aren't something new; back in 1938, Bringing up Baby (starring Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant) was the definitive romantic comedy of its time. But the genre has evolved over the years, and so have musical tastes. These days, the soundtracks of romantic comedies are likely to have a lot of adult contemporary or pop/rock because ... see all copies from $3.87! new only from $5.50!
25 view cover	Songs by Bobby Short (1955) more music like this by Bobby Short see all copies from $6.97! new only from $6.97!
