1	Round Midnight with Nelson Riddle and his Orchestra (1986) more music like this by Linda Ronstadt w/ Nelson Riddle & His Orchestra see all copies from $14.99! new only from $26.61!
2	Lush Life (1984) more music like this by Linda Ronstadt What's New illustrated that Linda Ronstadt was no longer interested in contemporary pop, and since it was a surprise success, there was no reason not to repeat the formula on Lush Life. Working again with Nelson Riddle, Ronstadt runs through several pop standards -- "When I Fall in Love," "Sophisticated Lady," "Falling in Love Again," "It Never ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $16.85!
3	New Moon Daughter (1995) more music like this by Cassandra Wilson Singer Cassandra Wilson, who has had a rather diverse career that has ranged from the free funk of M-Base to standards à la Betty Carter, has in recent times adopted a folk-oriented style a little reminiscent of Nina Simone. On New Moon Daughter her repertoire ranges from U2 to Son House, from Hoagy Carmichael to Hank Williams ("I'm So Lonesome I ... see all copies from $3.50! new only from $11.13!
4	Standard Time, Vol. 3: The Resolution of Romance (1990) more music like this by Wynton Marsalis On the third of his three standards albums, trumpeter Wynton Marsalis meets up with his father, pianist Ellis Marsalis (along with bassist Reginald Veal and drummer Herlin Riley), for 17 standards and three of his originals (including "In the Court of King Oliver"). Wynton, perhaps because of his father's presence, is very respectful of the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.28!
5	Sometimes When We Touch (1980) more music like this by Cleo Laine with James Galway see all copies from $9.99! new only from $165.55!
6	Hoagy Sings Carmichael (1956) more music like this by Hoagy Carmichael Hoagy Carmichael's last significant recording is a project whose format should have been repeated in later years. Sticking to vocals, Carmichael performs ten of his compositions including "Georgia on My Mind," "New Orleans," "Skylark," "Baltimore Oriole," "Rockin' Chair," and "Lazy River." What is unusual is that he is accompanied by an 11-piece ... see all copies from $11.25! new only from $11.25!
7	Bette Midler (1973) more music like this by Bette Midler "An earthy mix of blues, R&B, and '40s boogie-woogie" is how Bill Carpenter describes Bette Midler's second album, a strangely elaborate transition containing some of the elements which made The Divine Miss M so divine. The album features superb production from her former piano player, Barry Manilow, and the man who would help craft 1979's disco ... see all copies from $2.54! new only from $5.22!
8	The Very Best of Grappelli & Menuhin (1998) more music like this by Stephane Grappelli & Menuhin see all copies from $4.95! new only from $9.95!
9	Skylark (1956) more music like this by Annie Ross This little-known set (reissued on CD) from 1956 features singer Annie Ross four years after she originally recorded "Twisted" but a year before the formation of Lambert, Hendricks & Ross. Based in London at the time, Ross avoids scatting and vocalese in favor of conventional swinging and jazz-oriented interpretations of standards. Backed ... see all copies from $9.29! new only from $9.29!
10	A Little Moonlight (2003) more music like this by Dianne Reeves With the meteoric success of Norah Jones' debut in the early 2000s, the message was clear: there's a real hunger for straightforward tunes with minimal froufrou. Jones' producer, Arif Mardin, has assembled another likely hit with A Little Moonlight, a collection of appealing standards. Empathically supported by Dianne Reeves' working trio, every ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $8.00!
11	Mack the Knife [Atco] (1991) more music like this by Bobby Darin Bobby Darin's later hits, including "Mack the Knife," "Beyond the Sea," "Guys and Dolls," "Black Coffee," and "Artificial Flowers," are collected on this second volume of Atco's fine two-part retrospective, Mack the Knife. Stephen Thomas Erlewin, All Music Guide see all copies from $5.00! new only from $7.54!
12 view cover	The Very Best of Cleo Laine: 34 Classic Hits (1997) more music like this by Cleo Laine This two-CD set may be titled The Very Best of Cleo Laine: 34 Classic Hits but it is actually a lesser reissue. Drawing its material from Laine's RCA recordings of 1974-1996, the set is pretty light on jazz despite cameos from Clark Terry, Gerry Mulligan, Toots Thielemans and Joe Williams. While the occasional jazz tracks give one a feeling of ... see all copies from $17.76! new only from $17.76!
13 view cover	Memorial 1944-1969 (1939) more music like this by Glenn Miller Orchestra Before the CD era, this two-LP set was the definitive Glenn Miller greatest-hits package. All 30 selections were big-sellers (there are no duds included) and none of Miller's most popular songs are missing. Programmed in chronological order, the music starts with "Moonlight Serenade" and continues up to "St. Louis Blues March" (which was actually ... see all copies from $3.44!
14 view cover	Alone: Ballads for Solo Piano (2007) more music like this by André Previn see all copies from $10.95! new only from $14.97!
15 view cover	Songs of Love (1999) more music like this by Matt Monro see all copies from $24.44! new only from $28.22!
16 view cover	The Essential Glenn Miller (1939) more music like this by Glenn Miller Glenn Miller's 1939-1942 Victor recordings have been reissued a countless number of times in many different ways through the years. This two-CD set does an excellent job of repackaging all of his hits plus a variety of vocal numbers in chronological order. The 47 selections sum up Miller's legacy quite well, making this a definitive set for ... see all copies from $3.88! new only from $15.27!
17 view cover	The Best of Paul Desmond (1972) more music like this by Paul Desmond Since Paul Desmond only recorded two albums for CTI, this best-of accumulation from that label stretches the definition a bit by including Desmond appearances on other CTI albums by Jim Hall, Chet Baker, Don Sebesky, and Jackie & Roy, along with extensive samplings from the solo albums. Of course, a more sweeping idea would have been to raid ... see all copies from $4.28! new only from $5.33!
18 view cover	I Remember Duke, Hoagy & Strayhorn (1994) more music like this by Ahmad Jamal Ahmad Jamal, in paying tribute to Duke Ellington, Billy Strayhorn, and Hoagy Carmichael, performs nearly every selection on this CD at a very slow tempo. Or at least his sidemen do, since the pianist often plays double-time lines, witty quotes from other songs, and occasional violent outbursts. In general, the music is quite thoughtful and subtle, ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
19 view cover	Stardust (2002) more music like this by Bill Charlap Though his debut on record occurred only eight years prior to Stardust, pianist Bill Charlap has become well known for his lush, poignant reading of the standards. On his second date for Blue Note, Charlap and his rhythm section lovingly re-create 11 songs by songster Hoagy Carmichael, and are joined by some truly big talents. Tony Bennett joins ... see all copies from $15.98! new only from $15.98!
20 view cover	Sings the Johnny Mercer Song Book (1964) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald Along with her Rodgers and Hart collection, this is one of the best of Ella Fitzgerald's songbooks. Fitzgerald's assured and elegant voice is a perfect match for Mercer's urbane lyrics and Nelson Riddle's supple arrangements. In light of this decorous setting, it's not surprising that Mercer's swagger-heavy numbers like "I Wanna Be Around" and ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $13.91!
21 view cover	Temptation (1997) more music like this by Paula West see all copies from $4.86! new only from $17.23!
22 view cover	Best of Mel Tormé [EMI-Capitol Special Markets] (1999) more music like this by Mel Tormé see all copies from $5.26! new only from $5.26!
23 view cover	Live at the Kennedy Center (2006) more music like this by Mulgrew Miller A fine hard bop pianist who is especially effective on trio dates, Mulgrew Miller stretches out with his trio on this first of two CDs recorded at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. He kicks thing off with a driving take of the old chestnut "If I Should Lose You," building the intensity gradually to a feverish pitch, while he never runs short ... see all copies from $16.26! new only from $16.26!
24 view cover	The Songs of Johnny Mercer (1977) more music like this by Susannah McCorkle For her second recording and first U.S. release, singer Susannah McCorkle performs 14 songs fortunate enough to have the delightful lyrics of Johnny Mercer. Whether it be the Dixielandish "At the Jazz Band Ball," "Blues in the Night," the touching "Skylark," a "Dream" medley, "One for My Baby" or the novelty "Arthur Murray Taught Me Dancing in a ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
25 view cover	The Very Best of the Song Books (2006) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald Considered near the pinnacle of vocal jazz (along with Frank Sinatra's string of Capitol LPs), Ella Fitzgerald's eight Verve songbooks codified the canon of American Popular Song (uppercased) and continued to prove the best venue for learning what that phrase meant even 50 years after its genesis. (It's no wonder that the series even caused no ... see all copies from $17.69! new only from $17.69!
