1	What's New (1983) more music like this by Linda Ronstadt & the Nelson Riddle Orchestra Instead of trying to compete with a newer, fashion-conscious pop marketplace, Linda Ronstadt removed herself from the rat race, recording an album of traditional pop standards with Nelson Riddle. Ronstadt's voice isn't always showcased to a fine effect on these songs, but the record is an interesting change of pace. And it would have been more ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.95!
2	Ballads (1962) more music like this by John Coltrane Quartet Throughout John Coltrane's discography there are a handful of decisive and controversial albums that split his listening camp into factions. Generally, these occur in his later-period works such as Om and Ascension, which push into some pretty heady blowing. As a contrast, Ballads is often criticized as too easy and as too much of a compromise ... see all copies from $6.38! new only from $7.39!
3	To Love Again: The Duets (2005) more music like this by Chris Botti Trumpeter Chris Botti's To Love Again: The Duets picks up where his stellar 2004 release When I Fall in Love leaves off, with more gorgeously lush and heartfelt orchestral jazz via the London Session Orchestra. This time showcasing guest vocalists -- as well as a handful of instrumental tracks -- Botti takes an even more classicist approach than ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $9.75!
4	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 $16.01! new only from $25.64!
5	But Beautiful (2003) more music like this by Boz Scaggs Apparently, old rock singers who have exhausted their commercial appeal and have sung all the pop and soul standards have but one place to turn -- the American popular songbook. Linda Ronstadt pioneered this move in the '80s, Rod Stewart picked it up at the turn of the century, and, now no longer at Virgin, Boz Scaggs picks up the torch with 2003 ... see all copies from $15.34! new only from $15.34!
6	Long Ago and Far Away (1996) more music like this by Charlie Watts see all copies from $2.91! new only from $8.99!
7	Like Someone in Love (1957) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald Ella Fitzgerald was accompanied by an orchestra arranged by Frank DeVol for this fine studio session; the CD reissue has been augmented by four selections recorded a month later. Most of the songs are veteran standards, Stan Getz's warm tenor helps out on four tunes, and -- although this is not an essential release -- her voice was so strong and ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $9.00!
8	A Man Ain't Supposed to Cry (1958) more music like this by Joe Williams During the mid-'50s, Joe Williams was one of the hottest properties in vocal jazz thanks to a big hit recorded with the Count Basie Orchestra ("Every Day I Have the Blues"). But when he moved from Verve to Roulette a few years later, he modified his version of the big-band blues for his first album with the label. Roulette owner Morris Levy was ... see all copies from $2.22! new only from $5.85!
9	Lady in Autumn: The Best of the Verve Years (1946) more music like this by Billie Holiday There are many jazz lovers, even dedicated ones, who cannot afford to part with the 150 dollars or so that the ten-disc Complete Billie Holiday on Verve commands, so this two-disc distillation will do very nicely as a detailed summary of her troubled, soulful Verve period. Set out in chronological order with a mighty overreaching sweep, this mini ... see all copies from $5.12! new only from $19.26!
10	By Request/Sing to Me, Mr. C. (2001) more music like this by Perry Como Collectables Records' two-CD set By Request/Sing to Me, Mr. C. combines two early-'60s Perry Como albums. By Request, actually the later of the two discs, having been released initially in 1962, finds Como tackling some of the best songs of the day, the album given over to early-'60s hits like "Can't Help Falling in Love" and "Moon River." Of ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $8.00!
11 view cover	Wizard of the Vibes (1952) more music like this by Milt Jackson The music on Wizard of the Vibes features Milt Jackson with the Thelonious Monk Quartet in a 1948 session combined with a 1952 date with his bandmates from the Modern Jazz Quartet (at that time including John Lewis, Percy Heath, and Kenny Clarke) along with alto saxophonist Lou Donaldson, who was oddly credited as the leader of the date on the ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $10.79!
12 view cover	Jazz Moments (1962) more music like this by George Shearing This album freed pianist George Shearing from the confines of his popular Quintet and showcases him in a trio with Ahmad Jamal's former sidemen (bassist Israel Crosby and drummer Vernel Fournier). Crosby, heard in his final recording, is in excellent form during these performances and receives some rare opportunities to solo. The main star as ... see all copies from $13.00! new only from $23.39!
13 view cover	Ballads: Remembering John Coltrane (2001) more music like this by Karrin Allyson Jazz vocalist Karrin Allyson strikes a sentimental chord with this super fine 2001 release, inspired by tenor sax titan John Coltrane's infamous Ballads LP. The diva exhibits her near flawless phraseology and alluring vigor throughout these wonderfully executed pieces. Allyson also receives exemplary support from what some might consider an all ... see all copies from $4.98! new only from $8.53!
14 view cover	A String of Pearls/Trumpets' Greatest Hits (2002) more music like this by Bobby Hackett see all copies from $11.66! new only from $11.66!
15 view cover	I'll Take Romance (2002) more music like this by Beegie Adair One reason that the great pop standards of the 1930s, '40s, and '50s are great pop standards is that they have proven versatile. Though usually written for Broadway or Hollywood musicals, they were taken up by pop musicians while still new, and over the years served as vehicles for jazz players before being transformed by Frank Sinatra and his ... see all copies from $10.96! new only from $10.96!
16 view cover	Louis for Lovers (2003) more music like this by Louis Armstrong Though few listeners think of Louis Armstrong (or even Armstrong the jazz vocalist) as a lover man, his rocks-and-gravel voice perfectly expressed the wonder and bemusement of a love affair. The Verve collection Louis for Lovers compiles songs from three of his best latter-day works (I've Got the World on a String, Louis Under the Stars, and Louis ... see all copies from $9.73! new only from $9.73!
17 view cover	Helen Merrill with Clifford Brown (1954) more music like this by Helen Merrill with Clifford Brown Every recording by the short-lived trumpeter Clifford Brown is worth exploring, including his three dates with singers Dinah Washington, Sarah Vaughan, and this CD reissue with Helen Merrill. Reissued as part of box sets headed by Brown and Merrill, the highly enjoyable Brown/Merrill sessions are also available as this single CD. Trumpeter Brown ... see all copies from $6.65! new only from $6.65!
18 view cover	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 $11.70! new only from $11.70!
19 view cover	A Night Out With Verve (2000) more music like this by Various Artists A Night Out With Verve highlights five decades of remarkable jazz taken from the Verve catalog, spread out over four discs titled "Wining," "Dining," "Dancing," and "Romancing." This budget-priced box set includes 65 performances from jazz luminaries including Oscar Peterson, Sonny Rollins, Michel Legrand, Sarah Vaughan, Stan Getz, Louis Armstrong ... see all copies from $12.68! new only from $24.40!
20 view cover	Crazy! Baby (1960) more music like this by Jimmy Smith Unlike most of the Jimmy Smith recordings from the era, this CD reissue (which adds "If I Should Lose You" and "When Lights Are Low" to the original LP program) features organist Jimmy Smith's regular group (rather than an all-star band). With guitarist Quentin Warren and drummer Donald Bailey completing the trio, Smith is heard in peak form on ... see all copies from $10.55! new only from $10.55!
21 view cover	Black Coffee: Best of the Decca Years (1997) more music like this by Peggy Lee see all copies from $6.47! new only from $6.47!
22 view cover	Golden Vibes/Silver Vibes (2001) more music like this by Lionel Hampton The combination of these Lionel Hampton albums -- Golden Vibes and Silver Vibes -- provide pleasant interpretations of pop standards. The familiar melodies of "Day by Day," "My Funny Valentine," and "What's New?" hold up exceptionally well. The original LPs were released on Columbia in 1958 and 1960, and had been out of print until Collectables ... see all copies from $6.20! new only from $6.20!
23 view cover	Hand-Crafted Swing (1991) more music like this by Howard Alden with George Van Eps The master of the seven-string guitar, George Van Eps, joins the rising young jazz guitarist Howard Alden, which works perfectly in spite of a 45-year difference in age and different approaches to the guitar. Van Eps' chordal style meshes perfectly with Alden's single note lines in part because of the younger man's study of the senior's recordings ... see all copies from $9.73! new only from $9.73!
24 view cover	At the Cafe Bohemia, Vol. 1 (1955) more music like this by Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers At the Cafe Bohemia, Vol. 1 is first of the two volumes featuring the original version of the Jazz Messengers, the quintet co-led by drummer Art Blakey and pianist Horace Silver that also featured trumpeter Kenny Dorham, Hank Mobley on tenor, and bassist Doug Watkins. Caught live, the band stretches out on such numbers as "Soft Winds," "Minor's ... see all copies from $10.55! new only from $10.55!
25 view cover	Her Very Best (2002) more music like this by Gogi Grant These 18 songs are all drawn from Grant's Era recordings in the mid-'50s. That period certainly found her at her commercial prime, encompassing the 1956 number one hit "The Wayward Wind" and the 1955 Top Tenner "Suddenly There's a Valley," which lead off this collection. Grant might have been better suited, though, to an era five or ten years ... see all copies from $9.01! new only from $9.01!
