1	Sonny Rollins with the Modern Jazz Quartet (1951) more music like this by Sonny Rollins With the Modern Jazz Quartet Included here are some of Sonny Rollins' earliest sessions as a bandleader. These are among the fresh and vibrant baker's dozen of selections on Sonny Rollins With the Modern Jazz Quartet (1953). The title is a bit misleading though, since the MJQ -- with John Lewis (piano), Milt Jackson (vibes), Percy Heath (bass), and Kenny Clarke (drums) -- is ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $9.00!
2	Can I Borrow a Dollar? (1992) more music like this by Common Sense A former Source magazine "Unsigned Hype" winner, Common Sense almost single-handedly put Chicago hip-hop on the map in the early '90s with his excellent debut, Can I Borrow a Dollar?, which displayed a truly unique sound that, nevertheless, situated the rapper somewhere between the ground staked out by A Tribe Called Quest and Gang Starr. Can I ... see all copies from $9.25! new only from $9.25!
3	Broken Wheel (2005) more music like this by Chris Murphy Although the subtitle of Broken Wheel is "Blues Violin Music," one shouldn't expect the album to be the second coming of Don "Sugarcane" Harris. More so than on the rest of Chris Murphy's thematically connected series of albums, there's only a tenuous connection to the blues on much of Broken Wheel. For example, songs like the opening "Butterfly ... see all copies from $8.04! new only from $10.04!

9	Earl Fatha Hines Orchestra (1992) more music like this by Earl Hines & His Orchestra This compilation of recordings by the Earl Hines Orchestra suggests that it dates from World War II era V-Discs or transcriptions, especially because of the sound quality and the unmistakable presence of MC Ernie "Bubbles" Whitman. "Stompin' at the Savoy" features vibraphonist Bill Thompson extensively. "Straight Life" begins as a boogie-woogie, ... see all copies from $18.99! new only from $28.24!

12 view cover	Jazz Biography (2007) more music like this by Sonny Rollins It seems amazing, really, given the casualty rate among the first wave of bop musicians, but Sonny Rollins has actually had a jazz career that stretches over a half-century and he is still active and recording in the early part of the 21st century.

The Jubilee radio show was an Armed Forces broadcast aimed at black military personnel around the world, and was aired from 1942 through 1953 in that format.

16 view cover	Complete 1949-1951 Prestige Studio Sessions (2003) more music like this by Sonny Rollins The late '40s were a crucial time for a younger set of jazz musicians reared on bebop and searching for their own sound.
