1	Charlie Parker with Strings: The Master Takes (1995) more music like this by Charlie Parker with Strings When producer Norman Granz decided to let Charlie Parker record standards with a full string section (featuring Mitch Miller on oboe!), the purists cried sellout, but nothing could be further from the truth. There's a real sense of involvement from Bird on these sides, which collect up all the master takes and also include some live tracks from ... see all copies from $7.89! new only from $15.48!
2	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Charlie Parker (2004) more music like this by Charlie Parker Alto saxophonist Charlie Parker was instrumental in tipping jazz over from the swing genre, which was predominantly a dance music, to bop, which aspired to art, an intellectual dance if you will, and consequently Parker was a huge purveyor of the mid-'40s sea change that began to alter the way audiences approached jazz, and pop music in general. ... see all copies from $8.34! new only from $8.34!
3	The Essential Charlie Parker (1992) more music like this by Charlie Parker Another anthology that has less value due to the exploding reissue market. These cuts were among Parker's most influential compositions and performances, but they've been reissued many times, both in anthology packages and on re-releases of their original albums. But it's part of the Essentials sampler line, and if you only want a little Parker, ... see all copies from $7.58! new only from $7.58!
4	Boss Bird (2002) more music like this by Charlie Parker see all copies from $48.49!
5	Confirmation: The Best of the Verve Years (1995) more music like this by Charlie Parker Anyone daunted by the expense of acquiring the 10-disc Bird: The Complete Charlie Parker on Verve may well have their prayers answered by this 2-CD distillation of the big box. It covers a wide stretch of material from Parker's career, going back to the first JATP concert in 1946 and stretching almost to the end of his Norman Granz period. One ... see all copies from $2.85! new only from $2.85!
6	Parker's Mood (1995) more music like this by Roy Hargrove/Christian McBride/Stephen Scott On this unusual album, Roy Hargrove (trumpet, flugelhorn), Christian McBride (bass) and Stephen Scott (piano) pay homage to the father of bebop with a generous set of (mostly) Charlie Parker compositions performed in trio, duet and solo arrangements. These three musicians, all of whom are part of the back-to-bop youth movement and all of whom have ... see all copies from $7.96! new only from $9.57!
7	Ultimate Charlie Parker (1999) more music like this by Charlie Parker Verve's Ultimate Charlie Parker may not live up to its billing, but the budget-priced collection is nevertheless a terrific introductory sampler. Jackie McLean, one of Bird's greatest disciples, selected the 11 songs on the compilation, and he did an excellent job of balancing acknowledged classics with choices that illustrate Parker's full range. ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $13.78!
8	Verve Jazz Masters 15 (1994) more music like this by Charlie Parker For those who haven't yet invested in Definitive's excellent four-CD set Charlie Parker: The Complete Norman Granz Master Takes, Verve Jazz Masters 15 may serve as a useful sampler containing some of this master improviser's best performances recorded between January 1946 and July 1953. In addition to Jazz at the Philharmonic jams ("I Can't Get ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.00!
9	Porgy (1988) more music like this by Steve Kuhn see all copies from $10.76! new only from $10.76!
10	The Outlaw (1994) more music like this by Danny D'Imperio Drummer Danny D'Imperio in his groups has successfully revived hard bop of the 1950s and '60s, not just the style but also bringing back to life both standards and obscurities from the era. Other than "Theme for Ernie" (a previously unissued number from a 1994 date), all of the music on this Sackville CD is from Aug. 19-20, 1996. The ... see all copies from $14.69! new only from $14.69!
11 view cover	Better Late Than Never (2007) more music like this by Gil Coggins During his brief career as a jazz pianist, Gil Coggins made his mark as a sideman on recordings with a number of greats, including Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, and John Coltrane. But he left music during the late 1950s to sell real estate and never looked back, until being enticed to record his first CD as a leader for Interplay. These sessions, ... see all copies from $14.19! new only from $14.19!
12 view cover	Bird: The Complete Charlie Parker on Verve (1990) more music like this by Charlie Parker As a leader, Charlie Parker recorded for Savoy and Dial during 1945-1948 and then for Verve exclusively (at least in the studios) during 1949-1954. This remarkable ten-CD box set, which adds quite a bit of material to an earlier ten-LP set, contains all of these recordings plus Bird's earlier appearances with Jazz at the Philharmonic. The JATP ... see all copies from $121.75! new only from $128.86!
13 view cover	Supersax Plays Bird (1972) more music like this by Supersax Supersax's debut recording is still their best. The unusual group, who plays Charlie Parker solos harmonized for a five-piece saxophone section but with no individual sax solos (at least not on record; live they always did stretch out), found their own niche. With Conte Candoli as the trumpet soloist and a rhythm section comprised of pianist ... see all copies from $9.00!
14 view cover	Live at Yoshi's, Vol. 2 (1992) more music like this by Joe Pass Far from being a casual collection of rejects, there is plenty of mellow gold from Joe Pass on this posthumously released second volume from what must have been a memorable gig at this Oakland, California night spot. The two-guitar quartet format was an optimum showcase for Pass' nimble, melodic bop electric guitar, for the greatly unsung fellow ... see all copies from $9.90!
15 view cover	Autumn in New York (1996) more music like this by Charlie Parker see all copies from $9.98! new only from $9.98!
16 view cover	Jazz Now: Masters of the Craft (2000) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $15.05! new only from $15.05!
17 view cover	Complete Verve Masters with Strings (2002) more music like this by Charlie Parker Depending on your view, the period that Charlie Parker devoted to performing with a full-string orchestra is either one of his most interesting or most regrettable. Parker himself is purported to have lobbied for the strings, thinking it was how all great musicians should be showcased. The string arrangements Parker received were never more than ... see all copies from $17.31! new only from $17.31!
18 view cover	Basic Jazz Sax: Classic, Modern & Jump (2003) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $14.38! new only from $14.38!

21 view cover	At the Vanguard (1982) more music like this by Phil Woods Recorded the day after a similar album (Live From New York) was cut for Palo Alto, this fine effort by the Phil Woods Quartet (with pianist Hal Galper, bassist Steve Gilmore and drummer Bill Goodwin) features the great altoist performing his usual mix of superior and generally less-played standards, ballads and obscurities (including Red Mitchell ... see all copies from $16.55!
22 view cover	Pentacostal Feeling (2002) more music like this by Lou Bennett see all copies from $12.19! new only from $12.19!
23 view cover	O Piano de Joao Donato (2007) more music like this by João Donato see all copies from $14.96! new only from $14.96!
24 view cover	Iron Man (2006) more music like this by Jim Rotondi Trumpeter Jim Rotondi has been a fixture on New York's hard bop scene for some time, and has recorded extensively as both a sideman and leader. But Iron Man is something of a departure for him; in addition to a front line consisting of Rotondi and saxophonist Jimmy Greene, his quintet includes a rhythm section consisting of bassist Doug Weiss, ... see all copies from $15.38! new only from $15.38!
25 view cover	Young at Heart (2008) more music like this by Grant Stewart Grant Stewart's second release for Sharp Nine is a solid effort, featuring the big-toned tenor saxophonist accompanied by some of the regulars for the label, including pianist Tardo Hammer, bassist Peter Washington, and drummer Joe Farnsworth. Part of the fun is the leader's interest in lesser known tunes, such as the whirlwind performance ofDuke ... see all copies from $13.90! new only from $13.90!
