Janis Joplin's Greatest Hits [Bonus Tracks]

Janis Joplin's Greatest Hits [Bonus Tracks] (1999) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

A solid, if skimpy, ten-track best-of that gathers the most important songs from Janis Joplin's solo career, as well as her stint with Big Brother & the Holding Company. The compilation 18 Essential Songs offers a wider selection, but does not include the original version of "Me and Bobby McGee," which makes Greatest Hits the better purchase for ...

Sonny Meets Hawk! [9 Tracks]

Sonny Meets Hawk! [9 Tracks] (1963) more music like this

by Sonny Rollins & Coleman Hawkins

This is a truly strange (but, ultimately, pretty great) conglomeration of material: tracks one through six comprise a tenor saxophone summit meeting of sorts between bebop master Sonny Rollins and pre-bop elder statesman Coleman Hawkins, with Paul Bley on piano, drummer Roy McCurdy and the bass chair alternating between Henry Grimes and Bob ...

The Immortal Soul of Al Green

The Immortal Soul of Al Green (2004) more music like this

by Al Green

Al Green fans will be aware that The Immortal Soul of Al Green actually marks the second time that a four-CD box set of Green's recordings has been assembled, following by seven years its predecessor, Anthology. That being the case, the obvious question is, why do listeners need another Al Green box set? The answer lies in the two conflicting ...

Dry Your Eyes

Dry Your Eyes (1967) more music like this

by Brenda & the Tabulations

As was the custom of the day, Brenda & the Tabulations' debut album was overstuffed with familiar cover versions, which were done respectably; actually, the sultry, drawn-out reading of "Summertime" is really good, as is the calypso-ish take of the Marvelettes' "Forever." There are also a few more originals by the Brenda Payton-Maurice Coates team ...

Broadway: The American Musical

Broadway: The American Musical (2004) more music like this

by Various Artists

This five-CD box set, containing 106 tracks and running six-and-one-third-hours, is an audio companion to the six-part PBS documentary series Broadway: The American Musical, but not the soundtrack to that series. Rather, it is a sampler covering 84 years of recordings and 99 years of show tunes. One song has been chosen from each of 102 musicals. ...

Jim Hall & Pat Metheny

Jim Hall & Pat Metheny (1999) more music like this

by Jim Hall & Pat Metheny

These two guitarists -- one an elder statesman, the other still a relatively young man in the midst of a stellar career -- are such a natural fit that it's amazing no one's thought of getting them together for a duo album before. Both play with a gentle touch and sweet tone, and both are capable of challenging experimentation, though each have ...

Ruban Bleu Years: Complete Recordings 1944-1949

Ruban Bleu Years: Complete Recordings 1944-1949 (1998) more music like this

by Maxine Sullivan

All of Maxine Sullivan's recordings from 1944-1949 are on this single CD; she would only record two songs during the 1950-1954 period before making some full-length records in 1955. This reissue is more complete than the previous Tono recording that covered the same period, for it adds nine additional cuts. The previous 18 numbers find Sullivan in ...

Summertime

Summertime (1998) more music like this

by Ray Brown & Ulf Wakenius

Bassist's bassist Ray Brown is inspired and inspiring on Summertime, which finds him in the company of his trio and guest guitarist Ulf Wakenius. Whether it's the addition of Wakenius, new pianist Geoff Keezer, or just the felicitous combination of peerless players and dynamite material, this set easily eclipses Brown's preceding "Live at Sculler ...

Definitive Collection (2006) more music like this

by George Gershwin

The musical legacy of George and Ira Gershwin is truly an astounding one. Together they wrote the music for a dozen stage shows and four films beginning with 1924's Lady Be Good (which gave us "Fascinating Rhythm"), and several individual songs from this writing and composing partnership have become undisputed classics in the Great American ...

The Music of Bob Haggart (2002) more music like this

by Bob Haggart

Bob Haggart was a fine bass player, but his ambitions and talents took him beyond simple sideman status. He began playing with Bob Crosby's Bobcats in the 1930s and continued to work in the swing idiom for the next 60 years. Although Haggart died in 1998, Arbors released All-Stars at Bob Haggart's 80th Birthday in 2002, a concert recording from ...

Sassy Mama [Justin-Time] (2005) more music like this

by Big Mama Thornton

Sassy Mama is a reissue of Big Mama Thornton's Rising Sun Collection, which was first issued on CD in 1994 and shouldn't be confused with Vanguard's 1975 studio album by Big Mama of the same name. These tracks find Big Mama on foreign soil with a good band behind her, playing for the Euros in 1977. With Phil Guy and John Primer on guitar, and ...

Skin on Skin: The Mongo Santamaria Anthology 1958-1995 (1999) more music like this

by Mongo Santamaria

Licensing power makes Rhino's two-CD Mongo Santamaria anthology a good choice for the newcomer, for it gathers together 34 tracks from 23 albums on seven labels, covering most of Mongo's long career. Even if you already have the Mongo collections issued by Fantasy, Columbia, and Concord Picante, this one duplicates surprisingly little of the music ...

A Child's Celebration of Lullaby (1997) more music like this

by Various Artists

The bedtime entry in Music for Little People's series of Child's Celebration samplers is predictably becalmed and characteristically diverse. For the most part, the label licensed material from elsewhere, and if the mood and tempos are consistent, the artist lineup ranges from the Grateful Dead to Live with Regis and Kathie Lee, or at least from ...

Leslie on TV/ More Leslie on TV (1999) more music like this

by Leslie Uggams

The 1962 album Leslie on TV and its 1963 sequel, More Leslie on TV, are resurrected on this 1999 release. Neither album charted and none of the songs were hits, but the CD adds as a bonus track Uggams' sole pop hit, "One More Sunrise (Morgen)," from 1959. This is a single that peaked at number 98, though, so what are the selling points for this ...

Pure Jazz [EMI] (2007) more music like this

by Various Artists

For those of you looking to take a crash course in Jazz 101, this three-CD set would be an excellent introduction to the music. Many, if not all, of the big names are here over the 48 selections, and the program consistently offers a string of modern or vintage instrumentals, then a vocal number. Peggy Lee's "Basin Street Blues" is only slightly ...

Jazz Profiles (2007) more music like this

by Sarah Vaughan

Though not the EmArcy/Mercury recordings that put Sarah Vaughan on the map, she did some fine work for Columbia records, a reliable source, and many great tunes from her discography are included here. She surely could wring all the emotion possible out of any torch song or romantic ballad, and among the 15 tracks included are classic versions of ...
