1	Aja (1977) more music like this by Steely Dan add to wishlist Steely Dan hadn't been a real working band since Pretzel Logic, but with Aja, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen's obsession with sonic detail and fascination with composition reached new heights. A coolly textured and immaculately produced collection of sophisticated jazz-rock, Aja has none of the overt cynicism or self-consciously challenging music ... see all copies from £4.98! new only from £5.64!
2	Astral Weeks (1968) more music like this by Van Morrison add to wishlist Astral Weeks is generally considered one of the best albums in pop music history. For all that renown, Astral Weeks is anything but an archetypal rock & roll album: in fact, it isn't a rock & roll album at all. Employing a mixture of folk, blues, jazz, and classical music, Van Morrison spins out a series of extended ruminations on his Belfast ... see all copies from £5.86! new only from £7.01!
3	Chicago Transit Authority (1969) more music like this by Chicago add to wishlist Few debut albums can boast as consistently solid an effort as the self-titled Chicago Transit Authority (1969). Even fewer can claim to have enough material to fill out a double-disc affair. Although this long- player was ultimately the septet's first national exposure, the group was far from the proverbial "overnight sensation." Under the guise ... see all copies from £3.13! new only from £5.92!
4	Moondance (1970) more music like this by Van Morrison add to wishlist The yang to Astral Weeks' yin, the brilliant Moondance is every bit as much a classic as its predecessor; Van Morrison's first commercially successful solo effort, it retains the previous album's deeply spiritual thrust but transcends its bleak, cathartic intensity to instead explore themes of renewal and redemption. Light, soulful, and jazzy, ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £5.54!
5	The Royal Scam (1976) more music like this by Steely Dan add to wishlist The Royal Scam is the first Steely Dan record that doesn't exhibit significant musical progress from its predecessor, but that doesn't mean the album is any less interesting. The cynicism that was suppressed on Katy Lied comes roaring to the surface on The Royal Scam -- not only are the lyrics bitter and snide, but the music is terse, broken, and ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £5.62!
6	Birds of Fire (1972) more music like this by Mahavishnu Orchestra With John McLaughlin add to wishlist Emboldened by the popularity of Inner Mounting Flame among rock audiences, the first Mahavishnu Orchestra set out to further define and refine its blistering jazz-rock direction in its second -- and, no thanks to internal feuding, last -- studio album. Although it has much of the screaming rock energy and sometimes exaggerated competitive frenzy ... see all copies from £3.29! new only from £5.44!
7	Caravanserai (1972) more music like this by Santana add to wishlist Drawing on rock, salsa, and jazz, Santana recorded one imaginative, unpredictable gem after another during the 1970s. But Caravanserai is daring even by Santana's high standards. Carlos Santana was obviously very hip to jazz fusion -- something the innovative guitarist provides a generous dose of on the largely instrumental Caravanserai. Whether ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £6.14!
8	Can't Buy a Thrill (1972) more music like this by Steely Dan add to wishlist Walter Becker and Donald Fagen were remarkable craftsmen from the start, as Steely Dan's debut, Can't Buy a Thrill, illustrates. Each song is tightly constructed, with interlocking chords and gracefully interwoven melodies, buoyed by clever, cryptic lyrics. All of these are hallmarks of Steely Dan's signature sound, but what is most remarkable ... see all copies from £2.87! new only from £5.61! \| first editions
9	Bitches Brew (1970) more music like this by Miles Davis add to wishlist Thought by many to be the most revolutionary album in jazz history, having virtually created the genre known as jazz-rock fusion (for better or worse) and being the jazz album to most influence rock and funk musicians, Bitches Brew is, by its very nature, mercurial. The original double LP included only six cuts and featured up to 12 musicians at ... see all copies from £9.80! new only from £9.80!
10	Into the Music (1979) more music like this by Van Morrison add to wishlist Into the Music may not seem like a great Van Morrison record, one of his very best, upon first listen, especially if you're trying to compare it to such masterpieces as Astral Weeks and Moondance, or even Tupelo Honey. Yet this is certainly one of his best records, one that is quietly winning and thoroughly ingratiating, sounding stronger, even ... see all copies from £4.32! new only from £5.92!
11	The Hissing of Summer Lawns (1975) more music like this by Joni Mitchell add to wishlist Joni Mitchell evolved from the smooth jazz-pop of Court and Spark to the radical Hissing of Summer Lawns, an adventurous work that remains among her most difficult records. After opening with the graceful "In France They Kiss on Main Street," the album veers sharply into "The Jungle Line," an odd, Moog-driven piece backed by the rhythms of the ... see all copies from £4.20! new only from £7.15!
12	Blow by Blow (1975) more music like this by Jeff Beck add to wishlist Blow by Blow typifies Jeff Beck's wonderfully unpredictable career. Released in 1975, Beck's fifth effort as a leader and first instrumental album was a marked departure from its more rock-based predecessors. Only composer/keyboardist Max Middleton returned from Beck's previous lineups. To Beck's credit, Blow by Blow features a tremendous ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £5.79!
13	Apostrophe (') (1974) more music like this by Frank Zappa add to wishlist The musically similar follow-up to the commercial breakthrough of Over-Nite Sensation, Apostrophe became Frank Zappa's second gold and only Top Ten album with the help of the "doggy wee-wee" jokes of "Don't Eat the Yellow Snow," Zappa's first chart single (a longer, edited version that used portions of other songs on the LP). The first half of the ... see all copies from £8.92! new only from £11.45!
14	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 £6.13!
15	The Best of Chicago: 40th Anniversary Edition (2007) more music like this by Chicago add to wishlist The purpose of 2007's The Best of Chicago: 40th Anniversary Edition -- the group's second double-disc set in just five years -- is plain in its title: it's been assembled with the band's birthday in mind. It's hard to pass up an anniversary like that, and so The Best of Chicago competes with 2002's The Very Best of Chicago: Only the Beginning, a ... see all copies from £5.91! new only from £9.74!
16	Katy Lied (1975) more music like this by Steely Dan add to wishlist Building from the jazz fusion foundation of Pretzel Logic, Steely Dan created an alluringly sophisticated album of jazzy pop with Katy Lied. With this record, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen began relying solely on studio musicians, which is evident from the immaculate sound of the album. Usually, such a studied recording method would drain the ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £5.61!
17	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 £24.33! new only from £24.33!
18	The Inner Mounting Flame (1971) more music like this by Mahavishnu Orchestra With John McLaughlin add to wishlist This is the album that made John McLaughlin a semi-household name, a furious, high-energy, yet rigorously conceived meeting of virtuosos that, for all intents and purposes, defined the fusion of jazz and rock a year after Miles Davis' Bitches Brew breakthrough. It also inadvertently led to the derogatory connotation of the word fusion, for it ... see all copies from £3.74! new only from £4.22!
19	The Nightfly (1982) more music like this by Donald Fagen add to wishlist A portrait of the artist as a young man, The Nightfly is a wonderfully evocative reminiscence of Kennedy-era American life; in the liner notes, Donald Fagen describes the songs as representative of the kinds of fantasies he entertained as an adolescent during the late '50s/early '60s, and he conveys the tenor of the times with some of his most ... see all copies from £3.84! new only from £7.01!
20	Beautiful Vision (1982) more music like this by Van Morrison add to wishlist Beautiful Vision shares much sonically with its predecessor, Common One, being heavy on long, winding song-poems, moderate tempos, dense lyricism, and dated production. Still, this winds up being a stronger articulation of what Morrison was attempting to do on Common One -- much like how Wavelength got A Period of Transition right. That doesn't ... see all copies from £4.05! new only from £5.92!
21	Countdown to Ecstasy (1973) more music like this by Steely Dan add to wishlist Can't Buy a Thrill became an unexpected hit, and as a response, Donald Fagen became the group's full-time lead vocalist, and he and Walter Becker acted like Steely Dan was a rock & roll band for the group's second album, Countdown to Ecstasy. The loud guitars and pronounced backbeat of "Bodhisattva," "Show Biz Kids," and "My Old School" camouflage ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £5.61!
22	Greatest Hits (1979) more music like this by Steely Dan add to wishlist This 1978 ABC set was issued to bide time between Aja and Gaucho. Despite the generous 18 tracks covering the 1972-1977 work, this didn't take on mythical proportions due to the fact that the band's separate albums all remained strong and the group's better moments weren't always the biggest hits. Despite the cavils, some great work is here. "Do ... see all copies from £5.76! new only from £11.77!
23	Everything Must Go (2003) more music like this by Steely Dan add to wishlist When Steely Dan released Two Against Nature in 2000, their first album in 20 years, it was an unexpected gift, since all odds seemed against Donald Fagen and Walter Becker reteaming for nothing more than the occasional project, let alone a full album. As it turned out, the duo was able to pick up where they left off, with Two Against Nature ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £12.17!
24	Hejira (1976) more music like this by Joni Mitchell add to wishlist Joni Mitchell's Hejira is the last in an astonishingly long run of top-notch studio albums dating back to her debut. Some vestiges of her old style remain here; "Song for Sharon" utilizes the static, pithy vocal harmonies from Ladies of the Canyon's "Woodstock," "Refuge of the Roads" features woodwind touches reminiscent of those in "Barangrill" ... see all copies from £3.65! new only from £5.94!
25	Waka/Jawaka (1972) more music like this by Frank Zappa add to wishlist When Frank Zappa found himself stuck in a wheelchair for most of the year 1972 (after a "fan" pushed him off the stage on December 10 of the previous year), he relieved his then-current band (including singers Flo & Eddie) of its duties and turned to studio work. One of the first things he tried was to write jazz fusion music scored for wider ... see all copies from £5.47! new only from £9.90!
