1	The Only Big Band CD You'll Ever Need (2000) more music like this by Various Artists While the title alone would seem to invite criticism, it's a justified tag, as this 20-track collection rounds up some pretty serious contenders. Kicking off with Glenn Miller's "Chattanooga Choo Choo," Benny Goodman's "Stompin' at the Savoy," and Duke Ellington's "Take the 'A' Train," the set includes signature tunes from Woody Herman, Artie Shaw ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $12.22!
2	Plays Gerry Mulligan Arrangements (2005) more music like this by Gene Krupa Plays Gerry Mulligan Arrangements is an unusual Gene Krupa album from 1958 that was reissued in 2005. Rather than hearing Krupa play his usual swing hits, this is essentially a revisit to his underrated 1946-1949 boppish big band. Mulligan revived some of his arrangements from the period ("Disc Jockey Jump" is the most famous chart) and added a ... see all copies from $7.80! new only from $9.25!
3	The Complete Capitol Trios (1999) more music like this by Benny Goodman The Complete Captiol Trios is a long-overdue reissue of the five trio sessions Benny Goodman led for Capitol Records.

The highlights of the 1947 recordings are sessions with pianist Teddy Wilson and drummer Jimmy Crawford. This provided ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
4	Anthology 1934-1942 (2007) more music like this by Jimmie Lunceford Jimmie Lunceford's orchestra was one of the definitive swinging big bands of the '30s, in the same league as the bands led by Duke Ellington, Fletcher Henderson, Don Redman, Claude Hopkins, Earl Hines, Count Basie and Chick Webb. The Jimmie Lunceford orchestra served as an incubator for jazz talent like trombonist Trummy Young, saxophonist Willie ... see all copies from $11.52! new only from $11.52!

6	That Sentimental Gentleman (1996) more music like this by Tommy Dorsey & His Orchestra That Sentimental Gentleman collects 25 performances recorded for NBC on remote broadcasts by Tommy Dorsey & His Orchestra between 1940 and 1944, a period just after the prime years of the band.

10	The Instrumental Mr. Krupa (2000) more music like this by Gene Krupa & His Orchesta & Trio As the title implies, The Instrumental Mr. Krupa features Krupa and his band -- including tenor saxophonist Charlie Ventura -- tearing it up on an instrumental set. "Limehouse Blues," "Stompin' at the Savoy," "King Porter Stomp," "Up an Atom," and "Idaho" are some of the highlights from this energetic, entertaining album.

Cantor's work in the recording studio should be understood as a complementary adjunct to his efforts in his main areas of performing rather than an equal part of that career. His biographer, Herbert G. Goldman, ... see all copies from $10.76! new only from $10.76!
