1	Duets: An American Classic (2006) more music like this by Tony Bennett Tony Bennett has so many adoring celebrity fans it should come as no surprise that when a major duets album is planned, he's able to draw a roster of the biggest recording stars from the rock and vocal worlds, plus a pair of country music wildcards. (This despite the fact that he recorded an album with several duets in 2001, and a full-album ... see all copies from $4.90! new only from $5.95!
2	The Greatest Songs of the Fifties (2006) more music like this by Barry Manilow A kind of a variation on Clive Davis' wildly successful American Classic Songbook albums for Rod Stewart, The Greatest Songs of the Fifties finds Barry Manilow singing vocal pop favorites of the Eisenhower era. Although there are songs that are indeed classics of the rock & roll era, there is no rock & roll here. Manilow has picked songs like ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.32!
3	The Ultimate Tony Bennett (2000) more music like this by Tony Bennett The 20 tracks on this anthology cover Bennett's entire career at Columbia, from his 1951 number one single "Because of You" to "Mood Indigo" from 1999's Hot and Cool: Bennett Sings Ellington. Note, however, that "entire career at Columbia" is not synonymous with Bennett's entire career, as there's nothing representing the span between the mid-'60s ... see all copies from $3.47! new only from $15.35!
4	The Essential Tony Bennett [Columbia/Legacy] (2002) more music like this by Tony Bennett Like most entries in Sony/Legacy's Essential series, 2002's The Essential Tony Bennett is an excellent, exhaustive retrospective of a lengthy, hit-filled career at Columbia. Although Bennett spent time at other labels -- particularly in the '70s -- he made his best-known and greatest recordings for Columbia, from the late '50s through the '90s, ... see all copies from $6.59! new only from $10.99!
5	Fifty Years: The Artistry of Tony Bennett (2004) more music like this by Tony Bennett When the first version of this impressive box set was originally released in 1991 (as Forty Years: The Artistry of Tony Bennett), it put the capstone upon Tony Bennett's remarkable return to prominence by looking back at a legacy that had been overshadowed by that of the colossus Sinatra. The collection methodically traced his career from his ... see all copies from $42.69! new only from $42.69!
6	Walk a Mile in My Shoes: The Essential 70's Masters (1995) more music like this by Elvis Presley Since From Nashville to Memphis: The Essential 60's Masters gave up the ghost of being a complete overview of Elvis Presley's '60s recordings, the compilers of the companion five-disc box set Walk a Mile in My Shoes: The Essential 70's Masters -- the third and final installment in RCA's justifiably acclaimed Elvis box set reissue series -- decided ... see all copies from $69.14! new only from $69.14!
7	All-Time Greatest Hits (1950) more music like this by Tony Bennett Tony Bennett's departure from Columbia Records after 22 years in 1972 inspired the label to put together a one-volume hits compilation (originally released on two LPs) of 20 songs covering his entire Columbia output, from "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" and the early hits like "Because of You" and "Rags to Riches," through the early- to mid-'60s hit ... see all copies from $4.29!
8	Talk to Me (1995) more music like this by Sunny & the Sunliners see all copies from $5.00! new only from $8.23!
9	Tony Bennett [2005] (2005) more music like this by Tony Bennett see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
10	An Evening at Rao's: Songs from an Italian Restaurant (1998) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $2.95! new only from $5.61!
11 view cover	MTV Unplugged [CD/DVD] (2007) more music like this by Tony Bennett Of course, Tony Bennett never was "plugged in," so the concept here is redundant, but what the hell. It's been a while since a Tony Bennett live album, and he's always terrific in concert. Certainly, he is here, singing 22 pop standards, including many of his hits and many other songs he's made his own. Elvis Costello and k.d. lang drop by, but ... see all copies from $3.30! new only from $17.52!
12 view cover	MTV Unplugged (1994) more music like this by Tony Bennett Of course, Tony Bennett never was "plugged in," so the concept here is redundant, but what the hell. It's been a while since a Tony Bennett live album, and he's always terrific in concert. Certainly, he is here, singing 22 pop standards, including many of his hits and many other songs he's made his own. Elvis Costello and k.d. lang drop by, but ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $16.59!
13 view cover	Goodfellas (1990) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Following in the footsteps of many, the soundtrack for Martin Scorcese's Goodfellas (based on Nicholas Pileggi's Wiseguy) uses period music for definition -- in this case, however, music from the '40s through the early '70s is utilized. The selections themselves are all good -- well chosen and not overused songs that range from "Rags to Riches," ... see all copies from $5.07! new only from $5.07!
14 view cover	Hit Parade 1953 (2007) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $3.25! new only from $3.25!
15 view cover	Dinah '63 (1963) more music like this by Dinah Washington It is fairly easy to evaluate Dinah Washington's recordings. Before 1959 virtually everything she recorded (even when in a commercial setting) is worth acquiring but the opposite is true of the records from her final period (1959-63). As a pop artist, Washington was better than many but only a shadow of what she had been. Her pre-planned emotions ... see all copies from $20.00!
16 view cover	Jack Jones Paints a Tribute to Tony Bennett (1998) more music like this by Jack Jones It's always unfair when someone dismisses an artist altogether because of one corny tune he did. In the case of Jack Jones, there are those who denounce him as a cheesy Vegas lounge act because he provided the theme from the silly prime-time TV program The Love Boat. But to condemn Jones' entire career because of something cheesy he once stooped ... see all copies from $6.25!
17 view cover	16 Most Requested Songs (1986) more music like this by Tony Bennett 16 Most Requested Songs is a nice, budget-priced collection of Tony Bennett's hits that provides an adequate introduction, but it is far from a definitive collection. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.00!
18 view cover	Young Tony (2007) more music like this by Tony Bennett Twenty-three-year-old Tony Bennett recorded and released his first single for Columbia Records, "The Boulevard of Broken Dreams" (with its B-side, "I Wanna Be Loved"), in April 1950. From then until the end of 1956, he recorded 87 tracks released contemporaneously on 35 Columbia singles and two LPs, Cloud 7 (February 7, 1955) and Tony (January 14, ... see all copies from $18.50! new only from $18.50!
19 view cover	In Concert (1990) more music like this by Tony Bennett with Count Basie see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
20 view cover	That's the Way It Is [Special Edition] (2000) more music like this by Elvis Presley While not as ferocious as 1968's Elvis TV special or In Person at the International Hotel Las Vegas from 1969, this expanded 30th anniversary edition of the soundtrack to That's the Way It Is retains the excitement and exhaustion of his stage show of the time. The set is broken up into three separate discs. Disc one, special edition, includes the ... see all copies from $49.98!
21 view cover	Pow!/Big Band Spirituals (2004) more music like this by Ted Heath see all copies from $13.00! new only from $20.85!
22 view cover	Sings His All-Time Hall of Fame Hits (1997) more music like this by Tony Bennett Sings His All-Time Hall of Fame Hits is a 12-track hits compilation focusing primarily on Tony Bennett's 1960s work and allowing him to re-record several numbers using only pianist John Bunch for accompaniment (and to give spoken introductions, including one in which he explains how he found "I Left My Heart in San Francisco" before segueing into ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
23 view cover	Taken By Surprise (2000) more music like this by Norman Hedman's Tropique Percussionist Norman Hedman's medium-sized combo is well named; it plays an engaging blend of salsa, Latin jazz, bomba, samba, and just about any other warm-climate dance idiom you can think of. The flute occasionally has a hard time getting in tune with the brass but, other than that, the sound is lush, sweet, and gently, percolatingly funky -- ... see all copies from $2.09! new only from $10.88!
24 view cover	MTV Unplugged [Bonus Tracks] (2006) more music like this by Tony Bennett Of course, Tony Bennett never was "plugged," so the concept here is redundant, but what the hell. It's been a while since a Tony Bennett live album, and he's always terrific in concert. Certainly, he is here, singing 22 pop standards, including many of his hits and many other songs he's made his own. Elvis Costello and k.d. lang drop by, but they ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!

The collection methodically traces his career from his first Columbia record, "Boulevard of Broken Dreams," in 1950, through the hit ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $255.55!
