1	The Best of Pete Fountain [GRP] (1961) more music like this by Pete Fountain Although this CD draws its 22 selections from clarinetist Pete Fountain's best period (his years on the Coral label), the selections picked are sometimes a bit eccentric. Fountain is heard playing Dixieland with some of his bands, but is also joined by -- choral groups and occasional strings; no personnel listing or even recording dates are ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $10.29!
2	Green Onions (1962) more music like this by Booker T. & The MG's There's not a note or a nuance out of place anywhere on this record, which was 35 of the most exciting minutes of instrumental music in any category that one could purchase in 1962 (and it's no slouch four decades out, either). "I Got a Woman" is the single best indicator of how superb this record is and this band was -- listening to this track, ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $9.55!
3	Classics in the Key of G (1999) more music like this by Kenny G Some jazz critics may point to Classics in the Key of G as proof of Kenny G's lack of jazz substance, but it really is proof of how well he makes instrumental pop albums. Yes, Kenny G has reworked a predictable set of pop classics, from "Summertime" to "The Look of Love," to fit his signature smooth sound, but that should be expected from an album ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.24!
4	Keep Your Eye on Me (1987) more music like this by Herb Alpert The unbelievable sales success of this record is a testament to Herb Alpert's extraordinary ability to keep his ear to the ground -- no doubt aided by his position as vice-chairman and co-owner of A&M Records -- and adapt to the times. At a time when A&M's Janet Jackson was blazing up the charts, Alpert journeyed to Minneapolis and cut some tracks ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $15.00!
5	Theme from "A Summer Place" (1994) more music like this by Percy Faith Orchestra see all copies from $4.00! new only from $10.59!
6	Best of Acker Bilk [GNP] (1989) more music like this by Acker Bilk Another European Trad (traditional jazz) man, Acker Bilk, updates (I think). We'll give the chap credit for an original tone (clarinet), but with the strings and non-jazz material there is little else here...There were ten tracks, including a medley of his hit Stranger on the Shore. Bob Rusch, Cadence, All Music Guide see all copies from $5.88! new only from $12.00!
7	The Majestic (2001) more music like this by Original Soundtrack see all copies from $6.08! new only from $13.34!
8	Up on the Roof/Under the Boardwalk (1998) more music like this by The Drifters Collectables' Up on the Roof/Under the Boardwalk contains two original early albums from the Drifters on one disc. Up on the Roof features Ben E. King on lead vocals; Under the Boardwalk features Johnny Moore on lead vocals. Both albums aren't just hits with filler, like many R&B albums of their era -- while they're not as strong as the justly ... see all copies from $11.66! new only from $11.66!
9	Beyond the Sea/The New Limelight (2004) more music like this by Frank Chacksfield This Decca Phase 4 two-fer revives a pair of out of print LPs by English bandleader, pianist, and composer Frank Chacksfield, Beyond the Sea and The New Limelight, released in 1964 and 1965, respectively. Both albums contain romantic mood music with the first 11 tracks dominated by an ocean theme, including "How Deep Is the Ocean," "Sea Mist," ... see all copies from $9.29! new only from $9.29!
10	All-Time Greatest Hits & More: 1959-1965 (1988) more music like this by The Drifters If Rhino's Very Best of the Drifters is a fine R&B snack, then All-Time Greatest Hits & More: 1959-1965 is a three-course gourmet meal with dessert built on the same ingredients. Forget about the higher price and the fact that 40 songs might seem to be more Drifters than most casual listeners would want -- All-Time Greatest Hits & More: 1959-1965 ... see all copies from $13.00! new only from $17.41!
11 view cover	Vultures (1995) more music like this by Joe Weed see all copies from $7.96! new only from $8.95!
12 view cover	Warm and Willing/Newest Hits (2002) more music like this by Andy Williams As welcome as Collectables' modestly priced two-fer CD reissues of Andy Williams' original LPs are to Williams fans, the label's decisions about which albums to couple are sometimes curious. Here is a good case in point. Warm and Willing was Williams' third Columbia Records LP, recorded in the spring of 1962. It consists largely of pop standards ... see all copies from $8.79! new only from $10.07!
13 view cover	It's Trad, Dad (2003) more music like this by Various Artists It's Trad Dad! compiles 20 songs that document the strange British trad jazz scene of the late '50s and early '60s. For some strange reason, the sounds of jazz as played by the originators from New Orleans were a huge deal and scads of trad jazz groups flooded Britain. The most famous of the lot was Acker Bilk, who had a big hit in 1962 with the ... see all copies from $11.03! new only from $11.03!
14 view cover	Twenty Years Later (1966) more music like this by Firehouse Five Plus Two Five years after their previous recording, the Firehouse Five Plus Two came together for one last record date, celebrating their 20th anniversary as a group. This CD reissue has two numbers from 1966 ("Mame" and "Winchester Cathedral"), but is otherwise from 1969. Rather than emphasizing standards (only "High Society" qualifies as a true dixieland ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $13.78!
15 view cover	History of Trojan Records, Vol. 2: 1972-1995 (1996) more music like this by Various Artists This 150-minute, two-disc set is one of the best overviews of classic reggae available. Volume 1 focused on ska and rock steady tracks from the 1960s, and this one consists primarily of material from the '70s and '80s, reggae's classic period. Though Trojan has a reputation for mediocre production quality and shady business dealings with its ... see all copies from $17.30! new only from $17.30!
16 view cover	Night Fire (1995) more music like this by Bryan Savage With only so many saxophone timbres to go around, many of the lesser known players searching for their own identity must keep the rest of their presentation unique while uncovering a sonic dynamic all their own. Case in point, Bryan Savage, who on first listen still brings Richard Elliot's rich, soulful tenor to mind. Savage is slowly improving ... see all copies from $2.95!
17 view cover	Classic Instrumental Hits (2004) more music like this by Various Artists This quirky collection is a brief anthology of mostly movie and television soundtrack pieces, including Acker Bilk's "Stranger on the Shore," Lalo Schifin's version of the Mission Impossible theme, Ferrante & Teicher's take on the majestic "Exodus," and Paul Mauriat's harpsichord-driven "Love Is Blue." The mood is mostly elegiac, and everything is ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.94!
18 view cover	Pipes 'N Things (2003) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $10.60! new only from $10.60!
19 view cover	The Legendary Group at Their Best (2000) more music like this by The Drifters see all copies from $28.79! new only from $28.79!

23 view cover	Alive in New Orleans (1977) more music like this by Pete Fountain Although this Laserlight release does list the correct personnel and songs (which puts it a cut above some of the other Laserlight budget sets), there is no mention on this 1998 CD that the music is from 1977 and that it was formerly put out as a First American LP. The liner notes only deal with Fountain's early days (pre-1960) and are therefore ... see all copies from $9.00!
24 view cover	Rock n' Roll Reunion: Class of 62 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $1.99!
25 view cover	Rock N' Roll 60's Flashback (2000) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $21.69! new only from $21.69!
