1	The Complete Blue Note Recordings (1947) more music like this by Thelonious Monk This magnificent limited-edition set launched the Mosaic label in real style. Included are all of Thelonious Monk's Blue Note recordings, six sessions as a leader from 1947-52 complete with alternate takes plus two titles cut with tenor-saxophonist Sonny Rollins in 1957. Since these were Monk's first opportunities to lead his own recording dates, ... see all copies from $30.00! new only from $48.37!
2	Ken Burns Jazz (2000) more music like this by Thelonious Monk In conjunction with the release of Ken Burns' ten-part, 19-hour epic PBS documentary Jazz, Columbia issued 22 single-disc compilations devoted to jazz's most significant artists, as well as a five-disc historical summary. Since the individual compilations attempt to present balanced overviews of each artist's career, tracks from multiple labels ... see all copies from $4.90! new only from $6.38!
3	Like a Lover (1992) more music like this by Gene Harris Quartet Pianist Gene Harris' 1992 quartet (with guitarist Ron Eschete, bassist Luther Hughes, and drummer Harold Jones) explores ten wide-ranging selections on this CD. But despite the very different chord changes, they are able to infuse the music with so much soul that the results are consistently bluesy. Among the tunes that Harris and his group ... see all copies from $6.80! new only from $10.44!
4	Oz Live (2006) more music like this by Oz Noy see all copies from $16.26! new only from $16.26!
5	Freefall (2001) more music like this by Kenny Barron & Regina Carter Violin/piano duet sessions are routine in the classical music world -- after all, Beethoven wrote ten sonatas for this combination -- but you rarely encounter them in jazz, due in great part to the shortage of jazz violinists. The Kenny Barron/Regina Carter sessions came about sometime after a gig at Sweet Basil's in New York -- and since the two ... see all copies from $6.58! new only from $16.93!
6	Selections from the Village Vanguard Box (2000) more music like this by Wynton Marsalis Septet see all copies from $1.99! new only from $12.89!
7	The Best of the Blue Note Years (1947) more music like this by Thelonious Monk For listeners unsure about diving into Monk's entire Blue Note catalog, this best-of roundup makes for a very fine alternative. Covering his bebop-era work from the late '40s and early '50s, the 16-track collection finds Monk in his early prime with such up-and-coming jazz standards as "Ruby, My Dear," "In Walked Bud," "'Round Midnight," and ... see all copies from $14.56! new only from $14.56!
8	Sonny Rollins, Vol. 2 (1957) more music like this by Sonny Rollins Compared to his Prestige, Riverside, and Contemporary recordings of the 1950s, some of Rollins' appearances on Blue Note seemed anticlimactic, but none should be overlooked. This unusual album mostly has Rollins in an all-star quintet with trombonist J.J. Johnson, pianist Horace Silver, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Art Blakey, but Thelonious ... see all copies from $5.52! new only from $5.52!
9	Standards: Live at the Village (1988) more music like this by J.J. Johnson The second of two CDs coming from the same engagement at the Village Vanguard (the first was Quintergy), this set features trombonist J.J. Johnson's quintet with Ralph Moore on tenor and soprano, pianist Stanley Cowell, bassist Rufus Reid and drummer Victor Lewis jamming on nine standards, plus the leader's "Shortcake." Johnson is in top form, ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $13.71!
10	Sound of Love (1998) more music like this by Paul Motian/Bill Frisell/Joe Lovano This live 1995 recording from New York's Village Vanguard club features drummer Paul Motian, guitarist Bill Frisell, and tenor saxophonist Joe Lovano turning in a stellar set of jazz covers and Motian originals (this is the same trio the drummer led in the late '80s and recorded high-profile tributes to Bill Evans, Thelonious Monk, and Tin Pan ... see all copies from $16.50! new only from $17.28!
11	Live at the Village Vanguard (1999) more music like this by Wynton Marsalis As if releasing eight single albums in 1999 weren't enough, Wynton Marsalis capped this deluge of material at the end of the year with a seven-CD mini-box of live recordings, taped over a five-year span at New York City's Village Vanguard club. Greed certainly wasn't the motive, for Sony Music priced the set at an unbelievably low $39.98, so the ... see all copies from $35.72! new only from $35.72!
12 view cover	Bill Frisell, Ron Carter, Paul Motian (2006) more music like this by Bill Frisell/Ron Carter/Paul Motian It's hard to imagine that Bill Frisell at 55 is the youngster of this group. But he is by a long shot. Not that it matters in terms of musicality; rather, it's that younger modernism and its involvement with different musical genres that make Frisell such a welcome foil for the likes of two heavyweights like Paul Motian and Ron Carter. To say that ... see all copies from $16.85! new only from $16.85!
13 view cover	At the Five Spot (1958) more music like this by Thelonious Monk One of Thelonious Monk's finest bands was the quartet he led in 1958 that featured tenor-saxophonist Johnny Griffin. Griffin sounded quite comfortable playing Monk's music and his fiery style really inspired the pianist/composer. This two-LP set (whose contents are also available on Monk's massive CD box The Complete Riverside Recordings) has many ... see all copies from $16.07! new only from $16.07!
14 view cover	Night & the Music (2007) more music like this by The Fred Hersch Trio His first trio album since the '90s, Night & the Music finds journeyman jazz pianist Fred Hersch, along with bassist Drew Gress and drummer Nasheet Waits, delving into an atmospheric and intimate mix of originals and standards. Hersch has always been a tasteful, harmonically adventurous, and deeply emotive musician, and that is certainly the case ... see all copies from $10.99! new only from $10.99!
15 view cover	Live at the It Club (1964) more music like this by Thelonious Monk Thelonious Monk was frequently recorded in live settings during his tenure with Columbia, though the original two-LP set wasn't released until 1982, and then only in edited form. Fortunately, the 1998 two-CD reissue restored the tracks to their original lengths, as well as adding three previously unreleased performances. This pair of 1964 dates at ... see all copies from $10.50! new only from $10.50!
16 view cover	Round Midnight and Other Jazz Classics (1992) more music like this by Thelonious Monk Round Midnight and Other Jazz Classics is a budget-priced, ten-track selection of some of Thelonious Monk's best-known recordings for Blue Note, and while there are plenty of essential items missing, it still functions as a good, affordable sampler featuring such standards as "Round Midnight," "Misterioso," "In Walked Bud," "Well You Needn't," ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $5.25!
17 view cover	Special Delivery (1996) more music like this by Tito Puente Tito Puente, the godfather of Latin jazz, celebrated 50 years in music with this sizzling CD. "Be-Bop" is launched with a duel between trumpeters Bobby Shew and Maynard Ferguson. Underrated alto saxophonist Bobby Porcelli and tenorman Mario Rivera make this version of "Stablemates" a keeper. The rarely heard "Venus De Milo" is revived with a warm ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
18 view cover	Trombone Master (1957) more music like this by J.J. Johnson Although released in the usually consistent Columbia Jazz Masterpieces series, this recording is a mere sampler of trombonist J.J. Johnson's 1957-60 recordings. The nine selections are drawn from four albums and, although there are some fine moments (most notably on "Misterioso," "Blue Trombone" and "What Is This Thing Called Love"). Scott Yanow ... see all copies from $5.33! new only from $5.33!
19 view cover	Arrival (1993) more music like this by Jessica Williams Jessica Williams is such an impressive pianist that Philip Barker originally started the Jazz Focus label primarily to record her. This solo outing (the debut of the label) is one of Williams' finest. She digs into a wide variety of material, ranging from a traditional "Japanese Folk Song" and "The Creator Has a Master Plan" to compositions by ... see all copies from $14.79! new only from $14.79!
20 view cover	Round Midnight [Prism] (2000) more music like this by Thelonious Monk see all copies from $7.23! new only from $7.23!
21 view cover	The Very Best (2005) more music like this by Thelonious Monk This succinct collection brings together a Monk's dozen from Thelonious Monk's nearly five-year stay (1947-1952) with Blue Note Records, including early recordings of such Monk standards as "Ruby My Dear," "Well, You Needn't," and "In Walked Bud," as well as his twin signature pieces, "'Round Midnight" and "Straight, No Chaser." Also here are ... see all copies from $11.13! new only from $11.13!
22 view cover	Monk Suite (1984) more music like this by The Kronos Quartet The Kronos Quartet, a very open-minded classical string quartet, caused a lot of eyebrows to be raised with this unusual set. They perform eight Thelonious Monk compositions and two Duke Ellington pieces that Monk had recorded. All of the notes played by the strings were written out in advance by arranger Tom Darter but the improvising bassist Ron ... see all copies from $8.22! new only from $11.90!
23 view cover	Live at Iridium, New York (2005) more music like this by Jean-Michel Pilc Although Jean-Michel Pilc has composed the majority of the pieces on Live at Iridium, New York, one gains an artist sense of the pianist by noting that he borrows one John Coltrane and four Thelonious Monk compositions. Pilc's joined by drummer Mark Mondesir and double bassist Thomas Bramerie for an adventurous set of post-bop that vacillates ... see all copies from $14.78! new only from $14.78!
24 view cover	Misterioso (1958) more music like this by Thelonious Monk This is the second long-player to be taken from the same August 1958 Five Spot recordings that had yielded the similarly brilliant Thelonious in Action The quartet heard on these sets includes Monk (piano), Johnny Griffin (tenor sax), Roy Haynes (drums), and Ahmed Abdul-Malik (bass). Their overwhelming and instinctual capacities directly ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $12.00!
25 view cover	Tethered Moon: First Meeting (1998) more music like this by Masabumi Kikuchi/Gary Peacock/Paul Motian see all copies from $16.58! new only from $16.58!
