1	Birth of the Cool (1949) more music like this by Miles Davis So dubbed because these three sessions -- two from early 1949, one from March 1950 -- are where the sound known as cool jazz essentially formed, The Birth of the Cool remains one of the defining, pivotal moments in jazz. This is where the elasticity of bop was married with skillful, big-band arrangements and a relaxed, subdued mood that made it ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $11.13!
2	Ballads and Blues (1950) more music like this by Miles Davis What a treat! An incredible compilation for those Davis fans who love his cooler bluesy/modal material. The brilliant producer Michael Cuscuna has combed through the early Davis "Birth of the Cool" sessions (1950), several Blue Note sessions in 1952 and 1954, plus one cut from the classic Adderley/Davis album Somethin' Else to create a cool blues ... see all copies from $4.80! new only from $4.80!
3	Army Air Force Band (2001) more music like this by Glenn Miller & the Army Air Force Band In 1956, RCA Victor released an ambitious, if imperfect, five-LP set that focused on U.S. performances by Glenn Miller's Army Air Force Band; all of the material, which spanned July 1943-June 1944, was recorded before the orchestra moved to England. That five-LP set drove Miller's hardcore fans wild; they were thrilled to get their hands on a lot ... see all copies from $11.02! new only from $40.00!
4	Secret Broadcasts (1944) more music like this by Glenn Miller This superb three-CD set has highlights of the many radio broadcasts made by Glenn Miller & the Army Air Force Band while in Great Britain. Miller had a dream orchestra that had a hard-swinging rhythm section (which included pianist Mel Powell and drummer Ray McKinley), top soloists in clarinetist Peanuts Hucko, trumpeters Bobby Nichols and ... see all copies from $6.24! new only from $49.99!

10	The Complete Birth of the Cool [Blue Note] (1998) more music like this by Miles Davis Capitol's The Complete Birth of the Cool is a double-disc set that's separated into two halves. The first contains all 12 tracks Davis cut in the studio in January 1949 with Gil Evans. The second contains three radio broadcasts that the Birth of the Cool nonet performed in September 1948 at the Royal Roost in New York City. All the recordings have ... see all copies from $14.97! new only from $14.97!
11	Live at Laren (1979) more music like this by Lee Konitz Lee Konitz revived his nonet for the occasion of this 1979 concert, with trumpeters Red Rodney and John Eckert, baritonist Ronnie Cuber, trombonist Jimmy Knepper and tuba player/bass trombonist Sam Burtis joining him in the front line. PLennie Tristano's "April," a challenging reworking of the standard "I'll Remember April," proves to be an ... see all copies from $30.39! new only from $30.39!
12	L' Heure Bleue (1991) more music like this by Franz Koglmann This set is Koglmann in miniature. Leaving the compositions for his gargantuan yet soulfully swinging and improvising machine the Pipetet behind, Koglmann functions in two much smaller settings here: as part of a quartet, and in duet with Misha Mengelberg. The quartet showcases the talents of Tony Coe on tenor and clarinet, Burkhard Stangl on ... see all copies from $19.19! new only from $19.19!
13 view cover	The Collection [Madacy] (2005) more music like this by Miles Davis Hmmm. These "must have recordings for the serious jazz collector" are presented on a double-disc set from Madacy. They were recorded at the Royal Roost in New York between 1948 and 1950. Basically, this stuff is Miles from during and just after the cool era. Bandmembers include Gerry Mulligan, John Lewis, Lee Konitz, and Max Roach. The problem is ... see all copies from $12.31! new only from $12.31!

16 view cover	The Centennial Anthology (2004) more music like this by Glenn Miller & His Orchestra Had Glenn Miller lived to see March 1, 2004, he would have turned 100. But Miller, of course, didn't live nearly that long; the swing icon was only 40 when, on December 15, 1944, the plane he was on disappeared over the English Channel. Miller spent the final months of his life performing for Allied forces during World War II, and he died a ... see all copies from $16.38! new only from $16.38!

20 view cover	From Cool to Bop: The Anthology (2002) more music like this by Miles Davis The late '40s were a very productive time for Miles Davis, who was still in Charlie Parker's employ when, in 1947, he started recording as a leader. The following year, Davis unveiled what came to be called The Birth of the Cool Band -- a highly influential nonet that boasted such cool jazz icons as Gerry Mulligan and Lee Konitz. The terms cool ... see all copies from $28.08! new only from $28.08!
