1	The Hot Fives & Sevens [JSP] [Box] (1999) more music like this by Louis Armstrong One of a handful of absolutely essential jazz collections, and at a bargain price too. With this four-disc set of Armstrong's bedrock Hot Fives & Sevens sides, JSP throws down the gauntlet for labels reissuing early jazz (hats off especially to John R.T. Davies for his superb remastering work). Covering the years 1925-1929, the 90 tracks include ... see all copies from $25.21! new only from $25.21!
2	Progressions: 100 Years of Jazz Guitar (2005) more music like this by Various Artists This expansive four-disc anthology essentially covers the recorded history of the guitar in the 20th century, beginning with the ragtime banjo that set the table for the role of the guitar in a jazz setting in the early 1900s, and then touching all the bases clear through to the post-postmodern possibilities of the instrument in the 21st century. ... see all copies from $27.33! new only from $27.33!
3	Martin Scorsese Presents the Blues: A Musical Journey (2003) more music like this by Original Soundtrack This five-disc, 116-track box set presents a sweeping history of the blues from its emergence in the early 1900s clear through to its various contemporary guises, and includes samples of country blues in all of its regional variations, as well as cuts from string bands, jug bands, jazz combos, gritty Chicago blues outfits, and a look at how rock ... see all copies from $55.61! new only from $55.61!
4	Gold Collection [Retro] (1998) more music like this by Louis Armstrong see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.99!
5	The Original Guitar Wizard (2005) more music like this by Lonnie Johnson Lonnie Johnson was best known for his tonally beautiful guitar playing, but he was also a fine singer and songwriter, and pretty adept on violin, piano, banjo, mandolin, harmonium, and bass as well. Equally at home in the blues or the jazz world (he worked with artists as raw as Texas Alexander and as polished as Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington ... see all copies from $10.64! new only from $10.64!
6	Live (1992) more music like this by Preservation Hall Jazz Band Since the 1950s, the Preservation Hall has been a major venue for the traditional jazz music sound for which the city of New Orleans is famous. The place itself is simple and unassuming, located in a decrepit building in the French Quarter. There, music-lovers sit on hard wooden benches with no amenities or refreshments. They are rewarded with ... see all copies from $8.36! new only from $15.06!
7	Krazy Kapers (2004) more music like this by Duke Heiger Trumpeter Duke Heitger gathered together a septet of young swing and classic jazz greats for Krazy Kapers. Heitger's style ranges from Bunny Berigan to Louis Armstrong without copying either, Evan Christopher has continued to grow as a clarinetist and occasional altoist year by year, and Brian Ogilvie has fluent styles on both tenor and clarinet. ... see all copies from $9.63! new only from $9.63!
8	The Complete Hot Five and Hot Seven Recordings [Columbia/Legacy] (2000) more music like this by Louis Armstrong This four-CD set brings together all the recordings made during the period of the Hot Five and Hot Sevens along with all the attendant recordings that Armstrong was involved in during this breakthrough period. Although this material has been around the block several times before -- and continues to be available in packages greatly varying in ... see all copies from $34.48! new only from $34.48!
9	Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1923) more music like this by Louis Armstrong This four-CD set does its best to summarize Louis Armstrong's career during 1923-1934, reissuing 81 of his finest recordings. The problem is that virtually all of the innovative trumpeter/vocalist's records from the era (particularly 1923-1931) are essential, and collectors will want to work on acquiring more complete series, so this box is most ... see all copies from $13.34! new only from $54.52!
10	The Ultimate Collection [Verve] (2000) more music like this by Louis Armstrong Covering over 50 years of Louis Armstrong's career, this three-CD set from the Verve archives starts in the juke joints and speakeasies of the '20s and ends up documenting his pop hits of the '60s. Chronicling the achievements of a prolific and diverse performer of Anderson's caliber is difficult, but this release gives a strong, broad overview of ... see all copies from $19.28! new only from $19.28!

Just as they did with they equally impressive survey of jazz drumming (Engine Room: A History of Jazz Drumming From Storyville to 52nd Street), the English label focuses here on one of the less-hailed components of the jazz firmament. Including extensive sessionographies, ... see all copies from $22.23! new only from $22.23!
12 view cover	Stomp Off, Let's Go! (1992) more music like this by The Bob Crosby Orchestra & the Bob Cats Although his career lasted into the 1950s, George Robert "Bob" Crosby enjoyed his greatest popularity and made his best recordings during the mid- to late '30s as the leader of a swinging jazz orchestra and a solid little traditional jazz group called the Bobcats. Between them, the two ensembles cooked up large quantities of Dixieland swing and ... see all copies from $8.37! new only from $10.83!
13 view cover	Creole Jazz Band (1954) more music like this by Kid Ory's Creole Jazz Band Trombonist Kid Ory, already 68 at the time of this recording, was at the peak of his powers in the mid-'50s. This particular version of his Creole Jazz Band was one of the finest, featuring trumpeter Alvin Alcorn and clarinetist George Probert, talented soloists who were also superb group players.

Johnson sings smooth blues and sentimental ballads with equal skill, and both guitarists have opportunities ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $9.00!
16 view cover	Live in Concert 1974 (2003) more music like this by The Kings of Jazz featuring Kenny Davern This accurately named group came about when, following a European tour by the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra in the spring of 1974, British impresario Eddie Kennedy asked the orchestra's trumpeter, Pee Wee Erwin, to select a smaller ensemble for a tour of England, Germany, and Sweden later in the year. The resulting octet was basically a who's who of ... see all copies from $7.56! new only from $9.71!
17 view cover	Climax Rag (1965) more music like this by Percy Humphrey & His Crescent City Joymakers Percy Humphrey, whose later recordings with the Preservation Hall Jazz Band tended to be quite erratic, is in generally good form on this LP made available through Delmark. Humphrey sounds inspired by the strong New Orleans jazz group (trombonist Jim Robinson, clarinetist Albert Burbank, banjoist George Guesnon, bassist Alcide Pavageau, and ... see all copies from $7.35! new only from $7.35!

21 view cover	Swinging Studio Sessions (1959) more music like this by Dutch Swing College Band Although the Dutch Swing College Band made many recordings during its long existence, not that many have been made available domestically. This fine CD gives listeners highlights from seven of the popular Dixieland group's sessions. Though the music spans a decade, the band's sound was unchanged during the era. The pianoless sextet/septet (with ... see all copies from $14.82! new only from $14.82!
