1	The Ballad Style of Stan Kenton (1958) more music like this by Stan Kenton Stan Kenton's early arrangements set the tone for his orchestra, but through the years, he generally farmed out the writing chores to other talented arrangers who could move the big band forward. However, he did arrange occasional ballad charts, and this 1958 album (reissued on CD in 1997) showcases Kenton's writing. The Ballad Style of Stan ... see all copies from $7.15! new only from $10.79!
2	The Billy May Sessions (1951) more music like this by Nat King Cole Nat King Cole recorded with arranger/bandleader Billy May on several occasions and all of their collaborations are on this excellent double-CD The Billy May Sessions. Dating from 1951, 1953, 1954, 1957 and 1961, some of the more memorable numbers include "Walkin' My Baby Back Home," "Angel Eyes," "Papa Loves Mambo," "Send for Me," "Who's Sorry Now ... see all copies from $12.43! new only from $24.28!
3	We Free Kings (1961) more music like this by Rahsaan Roland Kirk We Free Kings, Roland Kirk's third long-player, is among the most consistent of his early efforts. The assembled quartet provides an ample balance of bop and soul compliments to Kirk's decidedly individual polyphonic performance style. His inimitable writing and arranging techniques develop into some great originals, as well as personalize the ... see all copies from $9.33! new only from $9.33!
4	How High the Moon [Essential Gold] (2004) more music like this by Les Paul & Mary Ford see all copies from $7.61! new only from $11.47!
5	Somebody Loves Me (1961) more music like this by Ray Conniff Singers Somebody Loves Me offers a program of pop standards and love songs that receive the full vocal-group treatment rather than the wordless vocalizing for which Ray Conniff is known. The voices are out in front and gorgeously arranged, with the male and female singers on opposite sides of the stereo spectrum. More suave than Mitch Miller's singalong ... see all copies from $8.39!
6	Super Chief (1936) more music like this by Count Basie This very interesting two-LP set has quite a variety of material from the 1936-42 period, including a few airchecks, small-group sessions led by Mildred Bailey, Harry James, Glenn Harriman and Teddy Wilson (all feature Basie sidemen), and some studio sessions by both Basie's orchestra and small groups from his big band. Along with the rarities is ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $11.66!
7	Swingin' on the Moon (1960) more music like this by Mel Tormé This unusual project, reissued on CD in 1998, features singer Mel Torme with the Russ Garcia Orchestra performing 11 songs that have the word Moon in their title plus "A Velvet Affair." Although the renditions are quite concise (all are less than four minutes) and a couple of the arrangements use novelty effects, the music is generally quite jazz ... see all copies from $7.05! new only from $7.05!
8	The Tatum Group Masterpieces, Vol. 2 (1955) more music like this by Art Tatum The second of eight CDs teaming the amazing pianist with a variety of his contemporaries finds Tatum sharing the stage with trumpeter Roy Eldridge, bassist John Simmons and drummer Alvin Stoller. Eldridge, normally a very combative player, knows better than to directly challenge Tatum and instead is surprisingly restrained and muted on this ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.35!
9	Do You Remember When? (1956) more music like this by The McGuire Sisters see all copies from $8.00! new only from $20.02!

And though producer Geoff Milne ignores the usual standby for compilation track listings (straight ... see all copies from $10.77! new only from $14.47!

17 view cover	3, 4, 5: The Verve Small Group Sessions (1955) more music like this by Benny Carter Has there ever been a more consistent performer in jazz history over a longer period of time than Benny Carter? The classic altoist, who had fully formed his sound by the early '30s (he first recorded in 1927), has not altered his style much in the past 65 (and counting) years. The music on this Verve reissue CD features Carter in three settings: ... see all copies from $11.52! new only from $13.78!
18 view cover	First Ladies of Song [ASV/Living Era] (2004) more music like this by Various Artists The Living Era label has many single-artist collections that deal separately with the finest females in the jazz vocal realm, but nothing to match this, a six-hour bonanza of material. Featuring five songs each by 25 artists, First Ladies of Song makes good on its promise to deliver songs by the "greatest American songstresses." (For the record, ... see all copies from $37.19!
19	Road Show, Vol. 1 (1959) more music like this by Stan Kenton & His Orchestra Recorded with June Christy & Four Freshmen, this is a fine live recording from 1959. June Christy is a bit below par due to a cold on the day of the recording. Kenneth M. Cassidy, All Music Guide see all copies from $15.00!
20 view cover	Chip off the Old Bop (1992) more music like this by Buddy DeFranco Pianist Larry Novak, guitarist Joe Cohn, bassist Ketter Betts and drummer Jimmy Cobb form a stimulating and supportive rhythm section behind the advanced flights of the still-remarkable clarinetist Buddy DeFranco. This bop-oriented set mixes together standards with some lesser-known material (such as Flip Phillips' "Hashimoto's Blues," guitarist ... see all copies from $11.49!
21 view cover	Easy Going (1986) more music like this by Warren Vache Sextette On this well-rounded set, cornetist Warren Vache is featured in a sextet also including trombonist Dan Barrett (who blends very well with Vache), guitarist Howard Alden, the unknown pianist John Harkins, bassist Jack Lesberg and drummer Chuck Riggs. The arrangements really uplift the music and the repertoire has many unusual items including ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $39.75!

23 view cover	The Legend and the Legacy (1948) more music like this by Les Paul If you're going for the big gulp, you could do no better than this excellent four-disc box set, which covers all the highlights of Les Paul and Mary Ford's tenure with the label.

24 view cover	Retrospective (1943) more music like this by Stan Kenton This four-CD set has virtually all of Stan Kenton's most significant recordings from his prime years. Although Kenton completists will prefer to pick up dozens of his individual Creative World releases instead, all other jazz collectors are well-advised to get this very well-conceived release. Starting with the original version of "Artistry in ... see all copies from $46.95! new only from $126.06!
25 view cover	The Complete Pablo Group Masterpieces (1954) more music like this by Art Tatum Tatum spent most of his career as a solo pianist; in fact, it was often said that he was such an unpredictable virtuoso that it would be difficult for other musicians to play with him. Producer Norman Granz sought to prove that the theory was false, so between 1954 and 1956 he extensively recorded Tatum with a variety of other classic jazzmen, ... see all copies from $214.19!
