3	Ambassador Satch (1955) more music like this by Louis Armstrong As Louis Armstrong traversed the globe, bringing jazz to every corner of it, live recordings became the norm. This reissue brings together 1955 concert recordings with the All-Stars from Milan and Amsterdam, buffeted with three previously unreleased bonus studio tracks recorded in New York and Hollywood.

4	Ken Burns Jazz (2000) more music like this by Louis Armstrong In conjunction with the release of Ken Burns' ten-part, 19-hour epic PBS documentary Jazz, Columbia issued 22 single-disc compilations devoted to jazz's most significant artists, as well as a five-disc historical summary.

5	Legacy (1985) more music like this by Jon Faddis After too long a period in the studios, talented trumpeter Jon Faddis returned to jazz with this brilliant effort. Best known for his ability to closely emulate his idol, Dizzy Gillespie (far from an easy feat), Faddis pays tribute to Gillespie with "Night in Tunisia" and "Things to Come." However, he also does a close imitation of Roy Eldridge on ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.71!
6	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 ... see all copies from $32.34! new only from $32.34!
7	Swingin' the Blues (1999) more music like this by Doc Severinsen Riding the crest of renewed interest in swing (which Doc Severinsen can take significant credit for) has taken the Tonight Show Band successor into the studios for another swing album, this one honoring the blues. The set kicks off with a brief Stan Kenton-like "Intro a la Indigo" seguing into "C Jam Blues," and after that, the group never looks ... see all copies from $14.60! new only from $14.81!
8	The Best of Louis Armstrong: The Hot Five and Seven Recordings (2002) more music like this by Louis Armstrong The most important musician of the century past has had a trumpet-load of retrospectives appear since the 100th anniversary of his birth in 2001, and few are more brisk, enjoyable, shot full of goofy energy, and essential than the remastered reissue of The Best of Louis Armstrong: The Hot Five and Seven Recordings box set. The box is four CDs of ... see all copies from $11.06! new only from $11.06!
9	Golden Years (2006) more music like this by Frankie Laine see all copies from $22.94! new only from $22.94!
10	Jazz: The Definitive Performances (1999) more music like this by Various Artists To commemorate the end of the century, Sony Music assembled the gargantuan 26-disc box set Sony Music 100 Years: Soundtrack for a Century. The title was imposing, as was the idea behind it -- to chronicle the life of the oldest record label in the music industry. To be clear, Sony Music has not existed for 100 years, but the heart of its catalog, ... see all copies from $22.14! new only from $22.14!
11 view cover	The Hot Fives & Sevens [JSP] [Box] (1999) more music like this by Louis Armstrong One of a handful of absolutely essential jazz collections, and at a bargain price too. With this four-disc set of Armstrong's bedrock Hot Fives & Sevens sides, JSP throws down the gauntlet for labels reissuing early jazz (hats off especially to John R.T. Davies for his superb remastering work). Covering the years 1925-1929, the 90 tracks include ... see all copies from $26.81! new only from $26.81!

14 view cover	Golden Greats: Greatest Dixieland Jazz (2002) more music like this by Various Artists This is a three-CD budget collection of some of the best in Dixieland jazz performed by many of its biggest stars. The sound quality and performances are quite good, but the lack of discographical information could be discouraging for serious fans. Sean Westergaard, All Music Guide see all copies from $6.50!
15 view cover	The Jazz Singers 1919-1994 (1998) more music like this by Various Artists The compilers of this five-CD/cassette box set anthology, which contains 104 tracks and runs over six hours, have taken an inclusive, open-ended approach to both their selections and their sequencing. Unconventionally, the album is organized not chronologically, but thematically, in eight categories -- "Steeped in the Blues," Straight out of ... see all copies from $45.95!

19 view cover	A Monday Date (1961) more music like this by Earl Hines & His Band Earl Hines, one of jazz's greatest pianists, was a modern stylist who broke up the usual stride piano pattern of the 1920s with unexpected accents and an uncanny ability to play successfully with time; he had the trickiest left hand in the business. After his orchestra disbanded in 1947 and he spent a few unfulfilling years as a sideman with the ... see all copies from $5.00!
20 view cover	Legendary Blues: Down Home Blues (2002) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $2.95! new only from $5.58!
21 view cover	Head to Head (2002) more music like this by John Allred/Wycliffe Gordon It all started, of course, with J.J. Johnson and Kai Winding back in the 1950s, but the trombone duo with rhythm has since been tried from time to time with varying success by several others. This one is sure to please fans of the genre, for not only are John Allred and Wycliffe Gordon two of the top jazz trombonists around, but the choice of ... see all copies from $12.08! new only from $14.79!
22 view cover	An American Original (2005) more music like this by Louis Armstrong see all copies from $6.74! new only from $6.74!

24 view cover	Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1923) more music like this by Louis Armstrong This four-CD set does its best to summarize Louis Armstrong's career during 1923-1934, reissuing 81 of his finest recordings. The problem is that virtually all of the innovative trumpeter/vocalist's records from the era (particularly 1923-1931) are essential, and collectors will want to work on acquiring more complete series, so this box is most ... see all copies from $54.81! new only from $54.81!
25 view cover	Live at the Blue Note (1999) more music like this by Irvin Mayfield Sextet The early 20-something trumpeter Mayfield has his sextet solidly planted in the post-to-hard-bop jazz of the late '50s. Trombonist Delfeayo Marsalis and alto saxophonist Wessell Anderson form an impressive young frontline with Mayfield, bassist Carlos Enriquez, and drummer Jaz Sawyer, who get to their business in fine style. It is pianist Eric ... see all copies from $14.89! new only from $14.89!
