1	Thanks for the Memory: The Great American Songbook, Vol. 4 (2005) more music like this by Rod Stewart see all copies from $2.86! new only from $16.59!
2	The Great American Songbook [Box Set] (2005) more music like this by Rod Stewart A month after Rod Stewart's fourth volume of his ongoing (some might say never-ending) Great American Songbook series was released, all four of the albums were rounded up in a cardboard box and released as The Great American Songbook. Apart from a biographical essay from Alan Light and a couple of photographs, there is no new material here -- even ... see all copies from $14.10! new only from $14.24!
3	The Academy Award Songs (1966) more music like this by Henry Mancini The title of Henry Mancini's 1966 double album Academy Award Songs is self-explanatory. The 31 tunes represent every Academy Award-winning song from 1934-1964, encompassing diverse material such as "High Noon," "Chim Chim Cher-ee," and "Lullaby of Broadway." Enthusiasts of film music will appreciate the reference value of Mancini's collection, and ... see all copies from $1.99!
4	She Shot Me Down (1981) more music like this by Frank Sinatra She Shot Me Down is Frank Sinatra's last great album, a dark, brooding record of saloon songs delivered with an understated authority by Sinatra. Arranged and conducted by Gordon Jenkins and produced by Don Costa, the record largely consists of contemporary material, including five that were basically tailored for Sinatra. It's a dense, moody ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $12.00!
5	Sings Ballads (1985) more music like this by Rosemary Clooney Rosemary Clooney continued her string of jazz sets for Concord in 1985 with this lyrical program. Clooney interprets ten ballads with the assistance of tenor saxophonist Scott Hamilton, cornetist Warren Vaché, guitarist Ed Bickert, pianist John Oddo (her musical director), bassist Chuck Israels and drummer Jake Hanna. Clooney's versions of such ... see all copies from $3.25! new only from $10.80!
6	As Time Goes By (1997) more music like this by Harry Nilsson Harry Nilsson was always a maverick artist, following his own sense of style down the hallways of pop, turning out carefully crafted -- even baffling -- songs that shared no direct affinity with any other artist of his day, although in some ways he resembled Randy Newman (even recording a marvelous album of Newman covers). Both men drew on ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $9.09!
7	Something to Live For (1999) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald Ella Fitzgerald recorded so much, and so much of what she recorded was so good, that the notion of one album summing her up is all but ludicrous. That said, this two-disc set, a companion to a television documentary by the same title, comes the closest of any album so far. It is the first album to span the two most important eras of her recordings ... see all copies from $9.29! new only from $27.16!
8	Most Requested Songs (2001) more music like this by Susannah McCorkle There's something incredibly tragic and ironic in the strange reality that finds a beloved jazz singer taking her own life just after compiling a collection of her best loved interpretations. So loved by so many, but perhaps -- as she wrote in her liner notes for her wistful reading of "If I Only Had a Heart" -- she was one of those people who ... see all copies from $2.89! new only from $10.29!
9	After Hours at the London House (1959) more music like this by Sarah Vaughan Seven months after Mercury recorded Sarah Vaughan in a live setting for the surprisingly successful At Mr. Kelly's, the label planned another date with the microphones for the night of March 7, 1958. This time, however, instead of setting up at Mr. Kelly's (although she was booked for three shows that night), the producers invited a small group of ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
10	Dreamsville (2001) more music like this by Stacey Kent Vocalist Stacey Kent may or may not be "the greatest ballad singer in half a century," as her PR claims, but her straightforward renditions of these by-request ballads are not at all generic. What makes them consistently delightful is her unique sound and delivery. There's a certain brassiness, a trumpet-like pointedness, in her voice, as well as ... see all copies from $14.50! new only from $14.50!
11	Time for Two (1962) more music like this by Anita O'Day In another experiment, producer Creed Taylor teams O'Day with the alternately Latin and bop-grounded quartet of vibraphonist Cal Tjader -- and he gets some amazing performances from this team. O'Day sounds as if she is delighted with Tjader's polished Afro-Cuban grooves, gliding easily over the rhythms, toying with the tunes, transforming even a ... see all copies from $13.91! new only from $13.91!
12 view cover	Hollywood in Rhythm (1959) more music like this by Ray Conniff Hollywood in Rhythm is the third album in Ray Conniff's thematic In Rhythm series. Previous installments were devoted to classical and Broadway tunes, while this one presents songs and themes from films. The mostly instrumental arrangements are not very characteristic of Conniff's style, making very subtle use of his chorus when it appears at ... see all copies from $5.54!
13 view cover	Sweet & Lowdown (2001) more music like this by Dave Van Ronk Rekindling his love for classic jazz, Van Ronk puts together a string of American standards and, along with a seven-piece band of seasoned session players, makes the kind of music he grew up listening to. The tunes swing along with Van Ronk's mildly Louis Armstrong-flavored rasp, which holds up throughout. As on his 1990 release, Hummin' to Myself ... see all copies from $15.27! new only from $15.49!
14 view cover	Sing, Sing, Sing [Bluebird] (1935) more music like this by Benny Goodman A fine all-around single CD, it sums up Benny Goodman's 1935-1939 period on Victor. During this time BG became jazz's and popular music's number one attraction, achieving this impressive feat without watering down his music or emphasizing novelties. All Goodman did was play the music he loved and the audience magically responded and started ... see all copies from $17.32! new only from $17.32!
15 view cover	Whisper Not (1966) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald Whoever decided to put pianist Marty Paich and Ella Fitzgerald together in the studio in 1966 deserves a bit of credit for the great music on Whisper Not. Together, Fitzgerald and Paich deliver a dozen beautifully sung, carefully arranged standards. An orchestra tastefully backs Fitzgerald's vocals, offering cushy support without overdoing it. ... see all copies from $13.91! new only from $13.91!
16 view cover	Complete Ray Conniff And His Orchestra, Vol. 1 (2004) more music like this by Ray Conniff see all copies from $127.10! new only from $127.10!
17 view cover	Beat of the Brass (1968) more music like this by Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass Meant as the companion album to a Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass television special of the same name and packaged in a fancy double-fold LP jacket, The Beat of the Brass came out amid signs that Alpert's hot streak was finally beginning to run out. Not quite. Viewer requests for a new Burt Bacharach song, "This Guy's in Love with You" -- ... see all copies from $2.65! new only from $24.69!
18 view cover	A Jazz Romance: A Night in With Verve (2001) more music like this by Various Artists In jazz, ballads have a way of separating the men from the boys and the women from the girls. They show what an improviser is made of emotionally. On ballads, technique for the sake of technique doesn't cut it -- you have to bring some genuine feeling and honest-to-God emotion to the table. And there is plenty of honest-to-God emotion on this four ... see all copies from $24.33! new only from $24.33!
19 view cover	Liftoff (2006) more music like this by Mark Elf Mark Elf's 11th release for his Jen Bay label is a lively studio affair. Joined by some of New York's most in-demand session musicians, including pianist David Hazeltine (who has extensively recorded on his own), bassist Peter Washington, and drummer Lewis Nash, the guitarist kicks off with his explosive "Liftoff," a miniature reworking of John ... see all copies from $8.95! new only from $13.33!
20 view cover	More Stan Getz for Lovers (2006) more music like this by Stan Getz see all copies from $4.39! new only from $10.29!
21 view cover	Live in Chicago (1995) more music like this by Sarah Vaughan see all copies from $10.27! new only from $14.99!
22 view cover	Melody Express 1948-52 (2003) more music like this by Stan Getz The Jasmine compilation Melody Express 1948-52 spans an exciting four years for Stan Getz. Getz had led his first date in 1946 (after several years in a few of the top big bands) and, when this disc begins, was currently electrifying jazz audiences with Woody Herman's Second Herd. By disc's end, in 1952, he was leading a celebrated group -- ... see all copies from $12.69! new only from $12.69!
23 view cover	Tenorlee (1977) more music like this by Lee Konitz This CD reissue (which adds new versions of "The Gypsy" and "'Tis Autumn" to the original nine-song program) is a bit unusual in that altoist Lee Konitz exclusively plays tenor. Featured in an intimate trio with pianist Jimmy Rowles and bassist Michael Moore, Konitz explores ten superior standards from the swing era plus a brief unaccompanied ... see all copies from $10.14! new only from $10.14!
24 view cover	Stompin' at the Savoy [Beacon] (1997) more music like this by Benny Goodman see all copies from $10.00!
25 view cover	The Artistry of Stan Getz, Vol. 2 (1952) more music like this by Stan Getz With more great music from this remarkable saxophonist, Artistry of Stan Getz, Vol. 2 continues where the first volume left off, adding selections from different albums and finding additional highlights from some of the LPs sampled on the earlier Artistry, Vol. 1. Taken together, and the music justifies that they be, these two double-disc sets ... see all copies from $20.63! new only from $20.63!
