1	Unforgettable: With Love (1991) more music like this by Natalie Cole A major change of direction for Natalie Cole, Unforgettable found the singer abandoning the type of R&B/pop she'd been recording since 1975 in favor of jazz-influenced pre-rock pop along the lines of Nat King Cole's music. It was a surprising risk that paid off handsomely -- both commercially and artistically. Naysayers who thought that so radical ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $16.65!
2	Cars [Original Soundtrack] (2006) more music like this by Original Soundtrack With a track listing that's roughly half rock, country, and pop songs and half Randy Newman's score, the Cars soundtrack is probably the least inspired collection of music to support a Pixar film. However, that's only in comparison to the brilliant soundtracks to their other movies -- especially Finding Nemo and The Incredibles. Both the pop music ... see all copies from $16.35! new only from $16.81!
3	The Ultimate Collection: Recorded Live (2004) more music like this by Brian Setzer Orchestra Say what you want about Brian Setzer and his cool retro-swing, but the man can not only play the hell out of a guitar, he can lead a big band like a pro, singing and playing sure, but he can write charts too. This set is rather ingenious. It contains two discs chock-full of the tunes that the Brian Setzer Orchestra has become (in)famous for. Disc ... see all copies from $14.29! new only from $14.66!
4	The Greatest Hits [Capitol] (1944) more music like this by Nat King Cole For all the resurgence in interest in Nat King Cole since 1991, when his daughter Natalie recorded a duet patching her new vocal with his from 40 years earlier and scored a gold-selling hit, Capitol Records lacked a single-disc hits collection that covered Cole's most successful singles for the label. This 22-track, 62-plus minute CD/cassette ... see all copies from $17.53!
5	Dear Mr. Cole (1994) more music like this by John Pizzarelli John Pizzarelli's tribute to Nat King Cole features him in a drumless trio with pianist Benny Green and bassist Christian McBride on all but one selection. Pizzarelli is fine as a rhythm guitarist, but since he sings on most of the selections and his voice is merely average, this session (which includes 18 selections, most of which were originally ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
6	The World of Nat King Cole (2005) more music like this by Nat King Cole Easily the longest of any Capitol single-disc compilation, 2005's The World of Nat King Cole also benefits from a fresh remastering of its material to make it the best introduction to the interpretive brilliance of Nat King Cole. Nearly all the hits that need to be here are indeed present: "Straighten Up and Fly Right," "Route 66," "Nature Boy," ... see all copies from $4.94! new only from $12.99!
7	The Anthology: Down in Birdland (1992) more music like this by The Manhattan Transfer As the Manhattan Transfer went on, so did the legacy of the jazz vocal ensemble. In that regard, though the competition was scarce, this group did elevate the art form to a higher level without much compromise. This two-CD, 39-track compilation represents many of the high points of the group. If anything is missing, some of the vocalese influenced ... see all copies from $10.42! new only from $28.92!
8	Bop Doo-Wopp (1983) more music like this by The Manhattan Transfer This album, released as a stopgap between major projects, is really an anthology of various studio scraps and live remote pickups, no doubt carefully curated and selected by that indefatigable collector, Tim Hauser. The rhythm track for "My Cat Fell In the Well" dates back to 1976's Coming Out sessions (the vocals are from 1984); everything else ... see all copies from $2.49! new only from $9.55!
9	All I Got (2002) more music like this by Al Jarreau Al Jarreau hits you with all he's got on his second release for the GRP/Verve recording label. The 11-song program, appropriately titled All I Got, features Jarreau's imaginative vocal stylings, lots of innovative urban sensibilities, and top-tier performances from a stellar band that includes his longtime musical director, Freddie Ravel, and a ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $16.65!
10	December's Children (And Everybody's) (1965) more music like this by The Rolling Stones The last Stones album in which cover material accounted for 50 percent of the content was thrown together from a variety of singles, British LP tracks, outtakes, and a cut from an early 1964 U.K. EP. Haphazard assembly aside, much of it's great, including the huge hit "Get Off of My Cloud" and the controversial, string-laden acoustic ballad "As ... see all copies from $10.76! new only from $12.77!
11 view cover	Something Cool (2002) more music like this by Tierney Sutton Tierney Sutton warms the soul with Something Cool. This offering, her third as a leader for the Telarc label, finds the vocalist using an array of vocal techniques, jazz styles, and formats on 14 great songs by several Great American Songbook composers, Bobby Troup, and the masterful Duke Ellington. Sutton is accompanied by her longtime trio of ... see all copies from $8.94! new only from $11.94!
12 view cover	Comin' Home Baby! And Other Hits (1997) more music like this by Mel Torme Aside from being a gifted jazz singer (he was forced to do a lot of pop material throughout his career to survive), Mel Torme was also an actor, a solid songwriter, an arranger (he handled the chart arrangements for most of his recordings), a credible drummer, and a more than competent author, but it is as a singer that he will always be ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.47!
13 view cover	Land of Enchantment (1989) more music like this by Michael Martin Murphey see all copies from $5.25!

16 view cover	In Concert: The Party's Just Begun Tour (2007) more music like this by The Cheetah Girls After two albums, tween favorites the Cheetah Girls decided to release a recording that documented some of their live performances. But because the production, even with the intermittent screaming girls, is so clean and polished, In Concert: The Party's Just Begun Tour pretty much works as a best-of collection, taking the biggest songs ("Strut," ... see all copies from $3.65! new only from $8.18!
17 view cover	Them (1965) more music like this by Them The debut album by the group, also known as The Angry Young Them, and half its tracks make it a dead-on rival to the Stones' debut album. This reissue features the album's original British configuration ("Just a Little Bit," "I Gave My Love a Diamond," "Bright Lights, Big City," and "My Little Baby" are here; "One Two Brown Eyes" and "Here Comes ... see all copies from $18.21! new only from $18.21!
18 view cover	The Brian Setzer Orchestra (1994) more music like this by The Brian Setzer Orchestra Who'd have thought that former rockabilly bad boy Brian Setzer's fondest dream was to lead a swinging big band? Setzer and his 17-piece band strut through a set of standards and originals, all featuring his growling guitar and vocals. The disc kicks off in high gear with screeching trumpet and a quintet of sweet saxes before Setzer fills up the ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $8.66!
19 view cover	The Best of the Nat King Cole Trio: The Vocal Classics, Vol. 1 (1942-1946) (1995) more music like this by Nat King Cole Originally released in August 1968, The Best Of Nat "King" Cole (Capitol 2944) was reissued in 1980 (Capitol 16036). William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.29! new only from $14.43!
20 view cover	Blues (2003) more music like this by Chuck Berry Chuck Berry grew up on the blues, taking Muddy Waters as a particular hero, so when he signed with Chess Records in the mid-'50s, the label undoubtedly figured they were getting a blues artist. Which Berry was, but his bright, skittering guitar style and penchant for writing songs with lyrics that set aside blues clichés for something closer to ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
21 view cover	20 Greatest Hits (2003) more music like this by Asleep at the Wheel While Ray Benson's indefatigable Western swing revival outfit Asleep at the Wheel has recorded for a handful of labels over the course of a career that's spanned four decades (so far), they've cut enough stuff for Capitol and other labels currently under their ownership (United Artists and Liberty) that this compilation, if not definitive, ... see all copies from $14.97! new only from $14.97!
22 view cover	Transcriptions (2005) more music like this by Nat King Cole Trio Between 1946 and 1950, the King Cole Trio recorded nearly 75 titles for Capitol's transcription service, songs that were then serviced to radio stations for airplay. Although Nat King Cole had formed the trio back in 1937, and the group had become immediately successful as a nightclub act, mainstream commercial success had eluded them until the ... see all copies from $34.81! new only from $34.81!
23 view cover	The Symphony Sessions (2006) more music like this by The Manhattan Transfer see all copies from $8.00! new only from $8.83!
24 view cover	Where There's Smoke There's Fire (1990) more music like this by Buckwheat Zydeco A great album of zydeco party anthems (and others) from Buckwheat Zydeco, the heir apparent in zydeco after the death of Clifton Chenier. This album features a number of Buckwheat's (Stanley Dural's) compositions, along with covers of a few standards from other genres, most notably "Route 66," Hank Williams' "Hey Good Lookin," and the Stones' ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $5.23!
25 view cover	One More for the Road (1986) more music like this by Charles Brown One of the first comeback salvos that the veteran pianist fired after suffering the slings and arrows of anonymity for much too long. Typically delectable in a subtle, understated manner, Brown eases through a very attractive program. Bill Dahl, All Music Guide see all copies from $11.21! new only from $11.21!
