The Complete Quartets with Sonny Clark

The Complete Quartets with Sonny Clark (1961) more music like this

by Grant Green & Sonny Clark

Mosaic released a four-disc box set titled The Complete Blue Note With Sonny Clark in 1991, rounding up everything that the guitarist and pianist recorded together between 1961 and 1962. Blue Note's 1997 version of the set, The Complete Quartets With Sonny Clark, trims Mosaic's collection by two discs, offering only the quartet sessions (the Ike ...

Ken Burns Jazz (2000) more music like this

Sonny Rollins with the Modern Jazz Quartet

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 ...

I Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray

I Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray (1997) more music like this

by The Fairfield Four

Around the time of this album's release, the Fairfield Four reached a new peak in mainstream visibility, complete with an appearance backing Elvis Costello on The David Letterman Show. An Elvis Costello-led cut ("That Day Is Done") appears here, and there are odd guest appearances by country singer Pam Tillis and Prairie Home Companion narrator ...

The Ultimate Collection [Verve]

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 ...

Louis and the Good Book [Bonus Tracks]

Louis and the Good Book [Bonus Tracks] (1958) more music like this

by Louis Armstrong

Although this CD reissue by Louis Armstrong is promoted as a jazz release, the jazz content of the music within this compilation of religious songs is rather minimal. The corny Sy Oliver arrangements and the dreadful backing choir repeatedly prove to be very distracting; the few times that Armstrong and his band are able to cut loose, they are ...

The Complete Prestige Recordings

The Complete Prestige Recordings (1949) more music like this

by Sonny Rollins

This seven-CD box set lives up to its title, reissuing in chronological order all of tenor saxophonist Sonny Rollins' recordings for Prestige. Dating mostly from 1951-1956, these valuable performances find Rollins developing from a promising player to a potential giant; many of his best recordings would take place a year or two after this program ...

Wild, Cool & Swingin (1956) more music like this

Capitol dug through their archives and produced Louis Prima's Wild, Cool & Swingin, a continuation of their popular Ultra Lounge series. Prima's two-CD retrospective includes some of his finest work for the label, including "That Old Black Magic," "Oh Marie," "Jump, Jive & Wail" and "Angelina/ Zooma Zooma."

The Essential Louis Armstrong [Columbia\Legacy]

The Essential Louis Armstrong [Columbia\Legacy] (2004) more music like this

by Louis Armstrong

Even at two discs and 37 tracks, it's difficult to say that this set contains everything that is truly essential from Louis Armstrong's monumental five-decade career. It does, however, do a great job of touching down at key points, and nicely balances Armstrong's various guises as a groundbreaking sideman, soloist, bandleader, singer, and ...

The Best of Louis Armstrong [MCA] (1965) more music like this

by Louis Armstrong

Anyone assembling a "best-of" collection involving Louis Armstrong would have to be on one level quite relaxed, aware that just about any selection of cuts would represent the "best" of just about any other artist, few of whom are up to the level of Satchmo even when he was just coasting. It is no doubt that it was his great popularity, and not ...

Ain't Misbehavin' and Other Hits (2003) more music like this

by Louis Armstrong

An intriguing but much too brief collection of Louis Armstrong performances that were featured in various films from the 1930s through the 1960s, this set is quite pleasant, with solid takes on such Armstrong standards as "Ain't Misbehavin'" (the version here is from 1951), "Jeepers Creepers" (from 1938), and "Basin Street Blues" (also from 1951, ...

Endlessly: The Best of Brook Benton (1998) more music like this

by Brook Benton

Twelve years after they released Anthology, arguably the definitive career-spanning Brook Benton collection, Rhino adapted the compilation for CD, releasing Endlessly: The Best of Brook Benton. Endlessly features three tracks less than Anthology, yet it doesn't suffer -- it remains a nearly flawless overview of Benton's career, featuring all of ...

Rockin' With Kay/I Hear the Word (2002) more music like this

Kay Starr started her solo career on Capitol Records in the mid-'40s and stayed with the label until 1955, when she moved to RCA Victor. In the face of rock & roll, she scored a number of hit singles on RCA, including the chart-topper "Rock and Roll Waltz" and "My Heart Reminds Me." But RCA wasn't able to help her cross over to the album market, ...

The Very Best of the Golden Gate Quartet (1997) more music like this

by Golden Gate Quartet

The Very Best of the Golden Gate Quartet is a terrific collection of songs the group recorded in France for EMI Pathe between 1955 and 1969, including versions of "Shadrack" and "Oh Happy Day." Although these aren't the versions that made them stars, they are nevertheless quite good and offer a good sense of what the group is about. Thom Owens, ...

Sonny Rollins' (tenor sax) earliest sessions as a bandleader are among the fresh and vibrant baker's dozen of selections on With the Modern Jazz Quartet (MJQ) (1971). However the title is somewhat of a misnomer as the MJQ -- featuring the respective talents of John Lewis (piano), Milt Jackson (vibes), Percy Heath (bass) and Kenny Clarke (drums) -- ...
