1	Head Hunters (1973) more music like this by Herbie Hancock add to wishlist Head Hunters was a pivotal point in Herbie Hancock's career, bringing him into the vanguard of jazz fusion. Hancock had pushed avant-garde boundaries on his own albums and with Miles Davis, but he had never devoted himself to the groove as he did on Head Hunters. Drawing heavily from Sly Stone, Curtis Mayfield, and James Brown, Hancock developed ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £4.29!
2	On the Corner (1972) more music like this by Miles Davis add to wishlist Could there be any more confrontational sound in Miles Davis' vast catalog than the distorted guitars and tinny double-timing drums reacting to a two-note bass riff funking it up on the first track from On the Corner? Before the trumpet even enters the picture, the story has been broken off somewhere in the middle, with deep street music melding ... see all copies from £3.74! new only from £6.12!
3	The Complete Jack Johnson Sessions (2003) more music like this by Miles Davis add to wishlist Of all the Miles Davis recordings, the 16 weeks of sessions that created a single, two-selection LP produced by Teo Macero called A Tribute to Jack Johnson have been the most apocryphal. While the album itself was a confounding obscurity upon release -- due to its closeness in proximity to the nearly simultaneous release of the vastly inferior yet ... see all copies from £24.29! new only from £24.29!
4	The Best of Roy Ayers: Love Fantasy (1997) more music like this by Roy Ayers add to wishlist This greatest-hits title was the first of its kind upon its release in 1979. During that time, Roy Ayers was one of the leading acts on Polydor Records and solidified his R&B/disco success with "Running Away," included here. The dichotomy between Ayers as a jazz act and an R&B/jazz quiet storm presence is all but kicked off by this album. The ... see all copies from £6.85! new only from £7.64!
5	Ultimate Christmas [Arista] (1998) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist While perhaps not living up to the lofty goals of its title, Ultimate Christmas is an excellent holiday sampler nevertheless, compiling classic performances from artists of all eras and musical backgrounds to appeal to as wide an audience as possible. The many highlights include Bing Crosby's "White Christmas," Elvis Presley's "Blue Christmas," ... see all copies from £6.20! new only from £6.20!
6	Brand New Day (2007) more music like this by Jonathan Butler add to wishlist see all copies from £5.20! new only from £10.44!
7	The Budos Band (2005) more music like this by The Budos Band add to wishlist see all copies from £7.59! new only from £8.31!
8	The Best of Donald Byrd (1992) more music like this by Donald Byrd add to wishlist Given the long period of time that Donald Byrd recorded for Blue Note (from the 1950s through the mid-'70s), it seems more than a little disingenuous to refer to the relatively brief period he spent with the Mizell Brothers as his producers, arrangers, and composers in the '70s as his best work. It is true that it was his most commercially viable ... see all copies from £5.26! new only from £6.12!
9	End of the World Party (Just in Case) (2004) more music like this by Medeski, Martin & Wood add to wishlist More than a decade into their career, Medeski, Martin & Wood continue to expand their sound. This time out, they've enlisted John King (Dust Brothers, Beck, Beastie Boys) as producer and engineer, and he brings a left-field pop sensibility to the table without ever sacrificing the personality and energy of the band. OK, it's not really "pop," but ... see all copies from £5.58! new only from £7.49!
10	Concord Records SACD Sampler, Vol. 1 (2003) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from £6.26! new only from £6.26!
11	Astral Traveling [Expanded] (1973) more music like this by Lonnie Liston Smith add to wishlist When the 21st century arrived, Lonnie Liston Smith's admirers had reason to complain. The pianist/keyboardist hadn't done much recording in the '90s, and many of his '70s and '80s albums were out of print in the United States. But in 2002, Smith's followers were given a few reasons to smile. First, Legacy/Sony came out with the two-CD ... see all copies from £22.41!
12	Dub Side of the Moon (2003) more music like this by Easy Star All-Stars add to wishlist It was one of those really stupid ideas that we can all be grateful someone had the guts to follow through with. Yes, it's a reggae version of the Pink Floyd classic Dark Side of the Moon, every track drastically reworked and presented in the same order as on the original album. And yes, it works far, far better than you'd have any right to expect ... see all copies from £8.09! new only from £8.09!
13	Jingle Bell Jazz [Columbia CD] (1990) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Columbia through the years has had several Christmas jazz samplers. This album is mostly from the 1961-62 period, although there is an unusual version of "Deck the Halls" that features both Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea on pianos in 1969 with a nonet. Highlights include Duke Ellington's "Jingle Bells," the Chico Hamilton Quintet playing "Winter ... see all copies from £4.54! new only from £4.54!
14	Street Life (1979) more music like this by The Crusaders add to wishlist Although the Crusaders could not have known it at the time, their recording of "Street Life" (which features a memorable vocal by Randy Crawford) was a last hurrah for the 20-year old group. Their recordings of the next few years would decline in interest until the band gradually faded away in the '80s. However this particular set is well worth ... see all copies from £2.48! new only from £6.15!
15	Doo-Bop (1992) more music like this by Miles Davis add to wishlist If On the Corner suggested hip-hop beats as far back as two decades ago, then consider Doo-Bop as offspring. Miles' teaming with producer Easy Mo Bee is a natural -- more in league with England's acid jazz scene than anything in the trumpeter's recent canon. Those who've howled over the post-Bitches Brew work will find no solace here; instead, ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £5.92!
16	Chain Reaction (1975) more music like this by The Crusaders add to wishlist One of the tastiest concoctions of the mid-'70s jazz-fusion era, Chain Reaction finds the Crusaders at the top of their form. The compositions are both accessible and memorable, and the playing is uniformly excellent. Guitarist Larry Carlton delivers some of his finest licks and funkified rhythm work. Wayne Henderson shows there is a place in ... see all copies from £4.98! new only from £7.55!
17	The Mix-Up (2007) more music like this by Beastie Boys add to wishlist Hailed in some quarters as a back-to-basics masterstroke, derided in others as flaccid and stale, it can be universally agreed that To the 5 Boroughs performed the crucial task of lowering expectations for the Beastie Boys. Until then, it was expected that each of their new albums would be a radical step forward -- or at least a virtuoso ... see all copies from £8.76! new only from £8.76!
18	Jazzy Wonderland (1990) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist This Christmas jazz CD contains 14 performances, a dozen of them not available on other sets. The two exceptions are Tony Bennett's 1987 "White Christmas" (which contains one of tenor-saxophonist Dexter Gordon's last recordings, a brief and weak statement) and Wynton Marsalis's "Winter Wonderland." Other musicians who are featured include Harry ... see all copies from £2.49! new only from £4.88!
19	Blacks and Blues (1974) more music like this by Bobbi Humphrey add to wishlist Bobbi Humphrey scored her biggest hit with her third album Blacks and Blues, an utterly delightful jazz-funk classic that helped make her a sensation at Montreux. If it sounds a lot like Donald Byrd's post-Black Byrd output, it's no accident; brothers Larry and Fonce Mizell have their fingerprints all over the album, and as on their work with Byrd ... see all copies from £4.77! new only from £6.12!
20	School Days (1976) more music like this by Stanley Clarke add to wishlist Every pro electric-bass player and their mothers wore out the grooves of this record when it first came out, trying to cop Clarke's speedy, thundering, slapped-thumb bass licks. Yet ultimately, it was Clarke's rapidly developing compositional skills that made this album so listenable and so much fun for the rest of us, then and now. The title ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £4.83!
21	Positivity (1994) more music like this by Incognito add to wishlist This is an excellent collection of jazz and fusion numbers featuring the wholesome, peerless vocals of Maysa Leak and group newcomer Mark Anthoni. With gritty, urban rhythms and painstaking arrangements, Leak's radiant vocals ring with invitation. The lyrical content is upright and substantive. All the songs have an aggressive backbeat regardless ... see all copies from £3.48! new only from £7.08!
22	Black Byrd (1973) more music like this by Donald Byrd add to wishlist Purists howled with indignation when Donald Byrd released Black Byrd, a full-fledged foray into R&B that erupted into a popular phenomenon. Byrd was branded a sellout and a traitor to his hard bop credentials, especially after Black Byrd became the biggest-selling album in Blue Note history. What the elitists missed, though, was that Black Byrd ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £3.11!
23	Festival of Light, Vol. 2 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Festival of Light, Vol. 2 is an equally satisfying follow-up to the groundbreaking Hanukkah holiday compilation, capturing traditional and non-traditional musical takes on the season ranging from humorous and celebratory to ethereal, solemn, and spiritual. The generally subdued musical feel is broken at times by more boisterous offerings from the ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £11.36!
24	Expansions (1974) more music like this by Lonnie Liston Smith & the Cosmic Echoes add to wishlist When Lonnie Liston Smith left the Miles Davis band in 1974 for a solo career, he was, like so many of his fellow alumni, embarking on a musical odyssey. For a committed fusioneer, he had no idea at the time that he was about to enter an abyss that it would take him the better part of two decades to return from. Looking back upon his catalog from ... see all copies from £5.69! new only from £5.69!
25	Turn It Out (2000) more music like this by Soulive add to wishlist Soulive is a tightly knit unit, a feature that is evident in their sound. Alan Evans plays the drums here, his brother Neal Evans plays the Hammond B-3 organ, and colleague Eric Krasno delivers the electric guitar. Velour Records, the New York City start-up, has a bright future ahead of itself if it continues to support projects like Turn It Out, ... see all copies from £4.28! new only from £6.25!
