1	Fearless Leader [Box Set] (2006) more music like this by John Coltrane In the spring of 1957, when he signed with Bob Weinstock's Prestige Records, John Coltrane was still a relative newcomer to the national jazz scene. He wasn't, at age 30, a youngster by any means, and he had already been playing professionally for more than a dozen years, but most of that had been as a sideman and he was known primarily to ... see all copies from $51.42! new only from $51.42!
2	The Best of the Pablo Group Masterpieces (2003) more music like this by Art Tatum A rich and rewarding core sample, selected from one of Norman Granz's deepest gold mines. The full set of Tatum ensemble master takes was released on eight vinyl records in 1975, appearing with alternate takes as a box of seven compact discs in 1990. Since then, each separate session has been issued on a single, affordable CD. With the release of ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
3	Nicky's Jazz Lullabies (2006) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $15.98! new only from $15.98!
4	Plays for the Cocktail Hour (1998) more music like this by Page Cavanaugh Pianist-singer Page Cavanaugh came to fame during the second half of the 1940s with his trio which emulated to an extent the Nat King Trio, but put a greater emphasis on group vocals. This particular album is from around a decade later (the 1955 date is an estimate), when Cavanaugh was leading a quartet also including guitarist Rod Leftwich, ... see all copies from $5.81!
5	Anthology (2005) more music like this by Sarah Vaughan In the 21st century, the jazz vocal field is full of upstart female vocalists who go out of their way to emulate the late Sarah Vaughan -- artists who feel that the best way to honor her memory is to try to sound exactly like her. The problem is that Sassy was truly irreplaceable; so instead of aspiring to be clones, the best thing jazz newcomers ... see all copies from $9.95! new only from $9.95!
6	A Jazz Romance: A Night in With Verve (2001) more music like this by Various Artists In jazz, ballads have a way of separating the men from the boys and the women from the girls. They show what an improviser is made of emotionally. On ballads, technique for the sake of technique doesn't cut it -- you have to bring some genuine feeling and honest-to-God emotion to the table. And there is plenty of honest-to-God emotion on this four ... see all copies from $24.33! new only from $24.33!
7	Duets (2005) more music like this by Toninho Horta/Nicola Stilo see all copies from $15.49! new only from $15.49!
8	Cinema Jazz (1995) more music like this by Miyuki Koga Miyuki Koga sings 16 classic songs from the cinema in her clear, effortless style. Heather Phares, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
9	Yes Tonight Josephine (1999) more music like this by Johnnie Ray see all copies from $8.00! new only from $173.25!
10	The Bebop Years (2001) more music like this by Coleman Hawkins Covering a period from 1939-1949, The Bebop Years profiles Hawkins during the days of combo swing and bebop. That the tenor great sounds at home in both settings here is testament to his great flexibility and intellect as a player. Proper pays its respects with four discs and a lavish booklet sporting a detailed discography, extensive notes, and ... see all copies from $15.75! new only from $23.63!
11 view cover	Don't Ask (1979) more music like this by Sonny Rollins The main reasons to acquire this release are for the Sonny Rollins-Larry Coryell duets on "The File" and particularly "My Ideal." Less worthwhile is a song given the hideous title of "Disco Monk" and Rollins' attempt to forge a personality on the lyricon on "Tai-Chi." A bit erratic, this album is still worth acquiring for its stronger moments. ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
12 view cover	Here Again (1997) more music like this by Buddy Montgomery Since achieving major success in the 1960s with the Montgomery Brothers band, and (along with brother Monk on bass) backing brother Wes on some of the guitar great's most popular albums, Buddy Montgomery has been heard from only occasionally. This trio album on Sharp Nine shows him still in fine form both as a composer and gently swinging pianist. ... see all copies from $14.50! new only from $14.50!
13 view cover	Baker Sings Chet (2003) more music like this by Jeff Baker Baker Sings Chet is the debut album from Jeff Baker, a Boise native that generally sings the choir and club circuits of the area. It's also a clever little play on Chet Baker's debut album title, Chet Baker Sings. The songs presented are all items that were associated with Chet Baker's repertoire over the years, with his classics all here to be ... see all copies from $15.53! new only from $15.68!
14 view cover	Prestige Profiles, Vol. 3 (2005) more music like this by Sonny Rollins Prestige Profiles, Vol. 3 highlights recordings made in the 1950s by tenor saxophonist Sonny Rollins for the legendary jazz label. Although the majority of these ten tracks are standards, including "More Than You Know," "On a Slow Boat to China," and "It's All Right with Me," they emphasize Rollins' ability to make every performance his own, no ... see all copies from $10.80! new only from $10.80!
15 view cover	A Time for Us (1997) more music like this by Norman Luboff Choir/Melachrino Strings see all copies from $30.00!
16 view cover	Shades of Gray (1993) more music like this by Gray Sargent Throughout this enjoyable set, guitarist Gray Sargent is the epitome of cool, unhurried, and relaxed no matter what the tempo. Sargent is accompanied by bassist Marshall Wood and drummer Ray Mosca and, on half of the set, great pianist Dave McKenna. The music falls between swing and bop, sounding both spontaneous and fully under control. Sargent, ... see all copies from $39.66! new only from $39.66!
17 view cover	1953-1954 (2007) more music like this by Beryl Booker Volume two in the complete recordings of Beryl Booker as presented in the Classics Chronological Series documents the adventures of the Beryl Booker Trio with eight titles recorded for Discovery Records in Los Angeles on October 14, 1953, material from two Vogue sessions that took place in Paris during February 1954, and six selections recorded ... see all copies from $15.19! new only from $21.53!
18 view cover	The Art of the Ballad (1953) more music like this by Kenny Dorham Though the least celebrated of the artists featured in Fantasy's initial The Art of the Ballad offering, Kenny Dorham is by no means the most negligible, as this selection of ballads, augmented by some of the leading names in jazz demonstrates. However, with only six Dorham albums on Riverside, Debut and New Jazz to choose from, Fantasy had to ... see all copies from $10.80! new only from $10.80!
19 view cover	Louise (1997) more music like this by Maurice Chevalier see all copies from $11.34! new only from $11.34!
20 view cover	Urbisaglia Concert (1994) more music like this by Massimo Urbani see all copies from $25.19!
21 view cover	13 Strings (1991) more music like this by Howard Alden With George Van Eps One of the strongest guitar-based jazz records of the 1990s, 13 Strings (so named because of the combination of Van Eps' seven-string instrument and Alden's conventional six-stringer) swings with a relaxed confidence born of equal parts experience and sheer mastery. This record marks Van Eps' return to recording after a period of over 20 years, ... see all copies from $13.18! new only from $13.18!
22 view cover	Sentimental Journey, Vol. 1 (1993) more music like this by Various Artists The first volume of Rhino's pop vocal collection, Sentimental Journey covers the years 1942-1946 and includes such vocalists as Bing Crosby, Doris Day, Judy Garland, Jo Stafford, Vaughn Monroe and Frank Sinatra (with "Swinging on a Star," "Sentimental Journey," "The Trolly Song," "Candy," "There! I've Said It Again," and "Night and Day," ... see all copies from $16.85! new only from $16.85!
23 view cover	The Best of Sonny Rollins [Prestige] (2004) more music like this by Sonny Rollins It's easy to look at the titles of a number of jazz musicians' albums from the 1950s and wonder to oneself: were these guys egotistical? Tenor Sonny Rollins, for instance, named one album Saxophone Colossus and another Tour de Force. While one might blush at the lack of modesty, it's still difficult to argue about the results. Rollins, as he ... see all copies from $19.19! new only from $19.19!
24 view cover	Romantic Standards: The Great American Love Songs (2004) more music like this by Various Artists The love songs that closed out the 20th century tended to be a blinders-off, gritty assessment of the emotion, as if love were a competition or an exhausting (and sometimes ugly) long distance race. Pat Benatar's "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" comes immediately to mind, or the creepy undercurrent to Sting's "Every Move You Make," which raises ... see all copies from $12.77! new only from $12.77!
25 view cover	It's Coming (2004) more music like this by Ignasi Terraza Trio A press release that was sent out with a promotional mailing of It's Coming stated that the death of pianist Tete Montoliu in 1997 left a major void in the Spanish jazz scene and that Ignasi Terraza is the man to fill the void. But such hype is silly because truth be told, no one can fill Montoliu's shoes -- he was truly irreplaceable. Implying ... see all copies from $14.80! new only from $14.80!
