3	The Essential Duke Ellington [Sony] (2005) more music like this by Duke Ellington The Essential Duke Ellington, a two-CD set, differs from previous Columbia/Legacy Duke Ellington reissues in that the music is drawn not only from Sony's vaults but from BMG's vaults, too. Four selections are from the 1920s, 20 date from the 1930s, seven are from the 1940s, and the final six were recorded between 1950 and 1960. Is this an ... see all copies from $21.33! new only from $21.33!
4	The Best of the Duke Ellington Centennial Edition (1999) more music like this by Duke Ellington This compilation of some of Ellington's most popular, enduring, and important RCA Victor sides from a period of 40 years (October 26, 1927, to August 30, 1967) consists of 18 tracks, drawn from the remastered tracks on BMG's 24-CD Ellington Centennial box. That's hardly enough to address the range of changes in Ellington's style, but it does give ... see all copies from $4.95! new only from $10.66!
5	The Lionel Hampton Story (2001) more music like this by Lionel Hampton see all copies from $14.69! new only from $17.59!
6	Ellington Masterpieces (1988) more music like this by Conducting American Jazz Orchestra with John Lewis With musicological thoroughness, some crack musicians and the best of intentions, John Lewis leads New York's American Jazz Orchestra in 15 transcriptions from one of Duke Ellington's prime periods (1940-43), plus "Rockin' In Rhythm" from 1930. If you had not heard the originals, you would probably come away from these reinterpretations ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $10.21!
7	Piano in the Background [Bonus Tracks] (2004) more music like this by Duke Ellington Recorded in 1960, Piano in the Background's title is a bit of a misnomer. While it's true that Duke Ellington often didn't appear on his recordings at all and this one is designed to showcase a series of new arrangements for the Ellington Orchestra, it also offers the composer and bandleader as a pianist leading the band. All of the album's ... see all copies from $10.66! new only from $10.66!
8	Best of Duke Ellington: Original Capitol Recording (1992) more music like this by Duke Ellington see all copies from $2.01!
9	Cherokee [ASV/Living Era] (1999) more music like this by Charlie Barnet ASV/Living Era's Cherokee is a good sampler of material from Charlie Barnet's prime, highlighted by the title track, "Leapin' at the Lincoln," "Comanche War Dance," "Swingin' on Nothin'," "Charleston Alley" and "You Always Hurt the One You Love," which features vocals by Kay Starr. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.83! new only from $10.83!
10	The Great London Concerts (1963) more music like this by Duke Ellington This previously issued material (released on a single CD by Music Masters) features the Duke Ellington Orchestra during a very busy era. The veteran musicians were getting older but their very individual voices were still powerful, and Ellington was far from running out of gas at this point. The five standards taken from the earlier performance ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!

12 view cover	The Carnegie Hall Concerts (January 1943) (1943) more music like this by Duke Ellington & His Orchestra This two-CD set captures one of the milestones in Duke Ellington's long and extremely productive career, highlighted by his monumental suite "Black, Brown and Beige" in the only full-length version ever recorded by his orchestra; soon it was only performed as excerpts. In addition, Ellington's all-star orchestra (including such stylists as ... see all copies from $21.89! new only from $21.89!
13 view cover	Piano Power (2005) more music like this by Oscar Peterson see all copies from $44.06! new only from $44.06!
14 view cover	Ken Burns Jazz (2000) more music like this by Duke Ellington In conjunction with the release of Ken Burns' ten-part, 19-hour epic PBS documentary Jazz, Columbia issued 22 single-disc compilations devoted to jazz's most significant artists, as well as a five-disc historical summary. Since the individual compilations attempt to present balanced overviews of each artist's career, tracks from multiple labels ... see all copies from $2.39! new only from $4.39!
15 view cover	Soprano Sax (1957) more music like this by Steve Lacy This was the first of three recordings soprano saxophonist Steve Lacy made for Prestige and this 11/1/57 session was his first as a leader...There was a controlled tension to this date, like everybody's trying to play, carefully, to a common goal. It's almost as if someone were present to make sure everybody stayed within obvious perimeters. Bob ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $10.06!
16 view cover	The OKeh Ellington (1927) more music like this by Duke Ellington Although generally not as celebrated as his Victor recordings of the same period, Duke Ellington's performances for OKeh (late acquired by Columbia) are among the best of the period, featuring distinctive solos by the likes of trumpeter Bubber Miley (and later his replacement Cootie Williams), trombonist Tricky Sam Nanton (who, like Miley, was an ... see all copies from $6.49! new only from $17.11!
17 view cover	For Ellington (1988) more music like this by The Modern Jazz Quartet This is a tribute album that works quite well. The Modern Jazz Quartet is heard at their best on such Duke Ellington tunes as "Rockin' in Rhythm," "Jack the Bear" and "Ko-Ko." Also quite noteworthy are their two newer pieces, John Lewis's "For Ellington" and Milt Jackson's "Maestro E.K.E." which perfectly capture the spirit of Ellington's music. ... see all copies from $7.54! new only from $9.17!
18 view cover	My Song (1993) more music like this by Joe Pass During his last years guitarist Joe Pass often used the same unit on a regular basis, one that he had utilized to record his classic For Django, back in 1963. For this pleasing effort John Pisano offers some suitable rhythm guitar while bassist Jim Hughart and drummer Colin Bailey are typically tasteful in support. Tom Ranier is an important ... see all copies from $3.69! new only from $8.92!
19 view cover	Live at the New School (1974) more music like this by Ruby Braff & George Barnes see all copies from $8.00! new only from $15.04!
20 view cover	Golden Greats (2002) more music like this by Duke Ellington see all copies from $2.13! new only from $17.79!

23 view cover	Takin' the A Train [Delta] (1998) more music like this by Duke Ellington see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
24 view cover	Ellington '55 (1953) more music like this by Duke Ellington The general outlook on Ellington's two-year stay at Capitol Records is that they were a series of missed opportunities, the label being unwilling to let him do much more than pop-oriented singles and recover old ground. That may be true, and the original marketing campaign behind this album ("Old tunes, new treatments for your listening and ... see all copies from $5.00!
25 view cover	A Celebration of Duke (1979) more music like this by Various Artists Although Sarah Vaughan gets top billing on this set, she takes vocals on just two of the ten songs. Four different groupings of Pablo's All-Star musicians are heard from during a tribute to Duke Ellington, and there are many strong moments. Guitarist Joe Pass, vibraphonist Milt Jackson, bassist Ray Brown and drummer Mickey Roker make for a potent ... see all copies from $4.19! new only from $10.44!
