2	Jazz to the World (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist This Christmas jazz album has a wide variety of generally enjoyable performances by 16 different groups.

4	New Moon Daughter (1995) more music like this by Cassandra Wilson add to wishlist Singer Cassandra Wilson, who has had a rather diverse career that has ranged from the free funk of M-Base to standards à la Betty Carter, has in recent times adopted a folk-oriented style a little reminiscent of Nina Simone. On New Moon Daughter her repertoire ranges from U2 to Son House, from Hoagy Carmichael to Hank Williams ("I'm So Lonesome I ... see all copies from £3.09! new only from £3.69!
5	Blue Light 'Til Dawn (1993) more music like this by Cassandra Wilson add to wishlist Cassandra Wilson has steadfastly refused to be pigeonholed or confined to any stylistic formula. Her highly anticipated Blue Note debut may stir renewed controversy, as she is once again all over the place. She begins the set with her intriguing version of "You Don't Know What Love Is." Then she moves from two Robert Johnson covers ("Come on in My ... see all copies from £3.40! new only from £6.79!
6	Thunderbird (2006) more music like this by Cassandra Wilson add to wishlist Cassandra Wilson's swinging for her own creative fences this time. The sultry, gentle, acoustic guitars on her last five recordings have been largely jettisoned for a more keyboard-and percussion -friendly approach -- which includes lots of programming and loops. To that end, she's enlisted flavor-of-the-year producer T-Bone Burnett and ... see all copies from £3.09! new only from £3.09!
7	Belly of the Sun (2002) more music like this by Cassandra Wilson add to wishlist Cassandra Wilson continues to move down a highly eclectic path on Belly of the Sun, the somewhat belated follow-up to Traveling Miles. While displaying a jazz singer's mastery of melodic nuance and improvisatory phrasing, Wilson draws on a variety of non-jazz idioms -- roots music, rock, Delta blues, country, soul -- to create a kind of earthy, ... see all copies from £3.09! new only from £9.32!
8	Sings Standards (2002) more music like this by Cassandra Wilson add to wishlist Cassandra Wilson is ostensibly a jazz singer, but more often than not crosses the creative line between folk, pop, and jazz. This collection of previously released tracks features Wilson on various jazz standards giving one a nice view of Wilson as simply a jazz vocalist. While this is in no way a "must have" for fans of the much lauded singer, it ... see all copies from £6.16! new only from £8.27!
9	Glamoured (2003) more music like this by Cassandra Wilson add to wishlist Cassandra Wilson has garnered a deserving reputation for her soulful, visionary reads of songs by legendary composers old and new, from Robert Johnson to Van Morrison. On Glamoured, Wilson composed half the album, and her songs are as provocative and deserve the same weight of grace critically afforded her covers. She uses her trademark fluid, ... see all copies from £3.09! new only from £11.55!
10	The Best Blue Note Album in the World Ever (1999) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist The Best Blue Note Album in the World Ever may boast a silly title, but it's hard to argue with what's on this double-disc sampler. Not all of the label's greatest artists are here, but everything is representative, showing how hard bop like John Coltrane's "Blue Train" and Lee Morgan's "The Sidewinder" coexisted with soul-jazz from Grant Green ( ... see all copies from £11.76! new only from £11.76!
11	Live (1991) more music like this by Cassandra Wilson add to wishlist Singer Cassandra Wilson was still searching for her own style during the time of this live concert. Accompanied by keyboardist James Weidman, electric bassist Kevin Bruce Harris and drummer Mark Johnson, Wilson performs four of her originals (none of which are too memorable), Steve Coleman's "Desperate Move" and a couple of standards ("'Round ... see all copies from £4.96! new only from £11.84!
12	Complete Rodgers & Hart Songbook (1996) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist The classic songs of Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart are rendered on this outstanding three-disc set, which features vocalists like Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Dinah Washington, Shirley Horn, Tony Bennett and Cassandra Wilson. Among the spotlighted instrumentalists are Charlie Parker, Coleman Hawkins, Art Tatum, Stan Getz, Bill ... see all copies from £19.08! new only from £19.08!
13	Visions of Jazz: A Musical Journey (1998) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Both beginning and ending with tracks uniting Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington, Visions of Jazz: A Musical Journey is a two-disc set tracing the evolution of jazz. It hits most of the major artists -- Count Basie, Coleman Hawkins, Benny Goodman, Lester Young, Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, Bud Powell, Miles Davis, Art Blakey, Stan Getz, Sonny ... see all copies from £19.67! new only from £19.67!
14	Lounge-A-Palooza (1997) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Lounge-A-Palooza combines several of the most irritating trends in '90s alternative rock in one convenient package. There's the kitschy cocktail revival, the smug humor of smirk-rock, and the pounding guitars of grunge. It's a collection that combines alt-rock covers by MOR pop bands -- like Steve Lawrence & Eydie Gorme singing Soundgarden's ... see all copies from £3.67! new only from £32.78!
15	Women of Spirit (1998) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Women of Spirit is a collection spotlighting music from all over the world made by female artists, from the U.S. and British Isles to South America, Africa, and the Mediterranean. As such, it's musically incoherent, even schizophrenic, and the stylistic leaps can result in a jarring listen, but the all-over-the-map approach does make an intriguing ... see all copies from £17.47! new only from £17.47!
16	Pure Cool (2000) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Blue Note's Pure Cool compilation delivers just what the title promises: a collection of tracks from the legendary jazz label's coolest artists, including Kenny Burrell, Charlie Hunter, Earl Klugh, and Stanley Turrentine.

20	Point of View (1986) more music like this by Cassandra Wilson add to wishlist Cassandra Wilson's debut as a leader features the chance-taking singer in a funky M-Base setting. The overcrowded ensembles (played by altoist Steve Coleman, trombonist Grachan Moncur III, guitarist Jean-Paul Bourelly, bassist Lonnie Plaxico, and drummer Mark Johnson) did not leave much space for a singer, but the flexible Wilson did her best to ... see all copies from £10.64! new only from £10.64!
21	It Stands for All (1996) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from £2.47!
22	My Funny Valentine: The Rodgers & Hart Songbook (1993) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist One of the choicest of Verve's many venerable songbook releases, My Funny Valentine spotlights some of the jazz canon's best moments in song; and how could it be otherwise, considering the program features the core of Rodgers & Hart's monumental song canon? That's why it's an all-star affair, with such singing royalty as Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah ... see all copies from £10.59! new only from £10.59!
23	Anatomy of a Groove (1993) more music like this by M-Base Collective add to wishlist This CD features many of the top players of the so-called "M-Base" idiom, a loose style of music related to the free funk of Ornette Coleman's Prime Time but making a greater use of space and uncrowded ensembles. The funky rhythms are unpredictable and creative while the highly original horn solos of altoists Steve Coleman and Greg Osby have ... see all copies from £3.09!
24	Spirit of '73: Rock for Choice (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist The award for greatest sense of fun and playfulness goes to Spirit of '73: Rock for Choice, with proceeds benefitting the Rock for Choice Organization, founded in 1991 by rock band L7 and the Feminist Majority. The concept: 14 female performers from the 90s cover hit singles by female performers from the '70s. Those who merely mimic the originals ... see all copies from £3.09! new only from £5.47!
25	Searching for Jimi Hendrix (1999) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist This tribute compilation reflects the many sides of Jimi Hendrix's sound, as well as the wide-reaching influence it continues to have on contemporary music. Unlike a typical, rock-based tribute, a wide range of jazz, rap, country, pop and gospel acts add their special touch to Hendrix's songs. Los Illegals' "Little Wing" and Los Lobos' "Are You ... see all copies from £3.09!
