1	The Best of Van Morrison, Vol. 3 (2007) more music like this by Van Morrison Van Morrison stopped having hits long before the release of the second volume of The Best of Van Morrison in 1993, so it's not practical to assume that it's double-disc successor -- delivered a whopping 14 years later, compared to the three separating the first two volumes -- has songs that are familiar to a general audience. Nor should it be ... see all copies from $21.32! new only from $21.32!
2	One Flight Down (2006) more music like this by Cedar Walton Cedar Walton shows no signs of slowing down at age 72, demonstrating both experience and enthusiasm in this invigorating studio session. Accompanied by Vincent Herring (heard on tenor sax, but just on the first two songs), bassist David Williams, and drummer Joe Farnsworth, the pianist revisits two of his earlier compositions, "One Flight Down" ... see all copies from $14.95! new only from $14.95!
3	Hommage (2007) more music like this by Bill Holman Bill Holman has long been one of jazz's most inventive and creative arrangers. He finally began to get some recognition for his abilities beyond the West Coast in the early 21st century, despite having had a very productive career for over a half-century. On Hommage, most of which was recorded live at a West Coast jazz festival, he pays tribute to ... see all copies from $14.04! new only from $14.04!
4	Jazz Signatures (2001) more music like this by Scott Hamilton Scott Hamilton has never been an innovator, but he has certainly been consistent. "Groundbreaking" isn't a word you will ever hear in connection with the breathy tenor man, who has excelled by sticking with the type of 1940s-minded jazz that he's known for. Although recorded in 2000, Jazz Signatures never loses its swing-to-bop mindset. Joined by ... see all copies from $7.47! new only from $7.47!
5	Lookin' Good: Getting Some Fun Out of Life/Let's Eat Home (2001) more music like this by Dave Frishberg This two-CD set by Dave Frishberg in Concord's budget series combines two complete releases, Getting Some Fun Out of Life and Let's Eat Home. Disc one features the singing pianist in a mix of traditional jazz, stride, and swing, in a quintet that includes alto saxophonist Marshall Royal and a fine yet unheralded veteran of many studio sessions, ... see all copies from $18.45! new only from $18.45!
6	Spellbound: Motown Lost & Found (2005) more music like this by Martha & the Vandellas Martha Reeves began her affiliation with Motown behind the scenes as an Artist and Repertoire assistant. As legend has it, some background vocalists were needed immediately and Reeves -- a local amateur herself -- used the opportunity to display not only her formidable talents, but those of her bandmates in the Del-Phis. This double-disc anthology ... see all copies from $31.01! new only from $31.01!
7	Celebration of Billy Strayhorn's Music, Vol. 1 (1994) more music like this by Harry Allen & Keith Ingham Billy Strayhorn's impressive work as a composer was often overshadowed by that of Duke Ellington. On two CDs, pianist Keith Ingham (who provided the arrangements), promising young tenor Harry Allen, guitarist Chris Flory, bassist Dennis Irwin and drummer Chuck Riggs perform 32 Strayhorn originals, including 16 on this first disc. In addition to ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
8	Thrill Kisser (1999) more music like this by Tin Star Careful, these rocktronic scientists are not to be confused with the Bakersfieldsian, alt-countryboys, Tin Star, from the mid '80s. This late-'90s London disco craze band has been a little irresponsibly compared to Brian Eno, but for the right reasons -- they have an energetic, outer space, erotic ambiance with occasional flashes of attitude, so ... see all copies from $1.99!
9	Nightingale (1991) more music like this by Joe Temperley In the hands of a pedestrian player, the baritone saxophone can sound very stodgy. Not so with British born Joe Temperley, who shows that the "big" horn can be more than the foundation of the sax section. A veteran of such big band aggregations as Humphrey Lyttelton's, Buddy Rich's, Woody Herman's, and Duke Ellington's, Temperley is joined here by ... see all copies from $14.19! new only from $14.19!
10	The Basement Tapes (2003) more music like this by Milt Hinton This posthumously released CD features recordings made by the great bassist Milt Hinton with a number of his friends between 1989 and 1990, all of which are previously unissued. Trumpeter Warren Vache and pianist Janice Friedman are on hand for the first three tracks, including a delightfully brisk "Raincheck," a moving "A Time for Love," and ... see all copies from $9.44! new only from $15.04!
11 view cover	Work Time (1955) more music like this by Sonny Rollins For this LP-length CD reissue, tenor great Sonny Rollins plays five songs (including the unlikely "There's No Business Like Show Business") in a quartet with pianist Ray Bryant, bassist George Morrow, and his then-current employer, drummer Max Roach. Rollins was an original stylist from the start, and in late 1955 he was ready to take his place ... see all copies from $5.77! new only from $9.20!
12 view cover	Friends, Lies, and the End of the World (2001) more music like this by Reach the Sky Reach the Sky continues to purvey its Pennywise-meets-the-East-Coast sound on Friends, Lies, and the End of the World, and a comparison to H2O is not unwarranted. Like H2O, the group's immersed positive feel is certainly laudable, but the pop-punk/hardcore formula gets tired as the disc plays on. Relative to similar albums, there's not much that ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $5.99!

14 view cover	Let's Eat Home (1989) more music like this by Dave Frishberg This CD is most significant for having the original versions of Dave Frishberg's "Let's Eat Home," "I Was Ready" and "Lookin' Good." The pianist, who also takes several instrumentals (Al Cohn and Billy Strayhorn medleys, plus "The Mooche"), is assisted by valve trombonist Rob McConnell, trumpeter Snooky Young, bassist Jim Hughart and drummer Jeff ... see all copies from $4.88!

19 view cover	Plays Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn Live (2003) more music like this by Gene DiNovi Every April, for the entire week surrounding Duke Ellington's birthday, the brilliant pianist Gene DiNovi commits himself to an extended run of nightly tributes to the Duke and his visionary collaborator, Billy Strayhorn. It happens at the Montreal Bistro & Jazz Club in Toronto, Canada. What you have here is a full set of live jazz well-played in ... see all copies from $14.39! new only from $14.39!
20 view cover	Duke, Billy and Tadd (2006) more music like this by Peter Welker Peter Welker put a lot of work into Duke, Billy and Tadd. A fine trumpeter and arranger from San Francisco, Welker spent two-and-a-half years writing the charts, organizing and recording a tribute to Duke Ellington, Billy Strayhorn and Tadd Dameron, although "Things Ain't What They Used to Be" was actually written by Mercer Ellington.

24 view cover	Jazz Poet (1989) more music like this by Tommy Flanagan By the time of this recording, pianist Tommy Flanagan had been performing for decades -- mostly as a sideman -- for a who's who of jazz: players such as Miles Davis, J.J. Johnson, and Sonny Rollins, to name a few. His perfect, yet unassuming style made him the pianist of choice for dozens of musicians. While he has recorded as a leader from time ... see all copies from $15.98! new only from $33.19!
