1	Caravanserai (1972) more music like this by Santana 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 £6.96! new only from £7.69!
2	At the Village Gate (1961) more music like this by Herbie Mann Remarkably few of flutist Herbie Mann's recordings are available on CD, but fortunately this one did get reissued. Mann's hit version of "Comin' Home Baby" from this live set became his first big hit. Composer Ben Tucker plays second bass on that cut, and Mann's other sidemen include vibraphonist Hagood Hardy, bassist Ahmed Abdul-Malik, drummer ... see all copies from £6.96! new only from £8.35!
3	The Mix-Up (2007) more music like this by Beastie Boys 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 £5.17! new only from £11.46!
4	On the Corner (1972) more music like this by Miles Davis 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 £3.48! new only from £4.98!
5	Sound of Christmas (1960) more music like this by Ramsey Lewis Trio This is a pleasing, if rather brief (29 minutes) Christmas jazz album that was originally quite popular. Reissued on a 1982 LP, the set features the Ramsey Lewis Trio (consisting of the leader/pianist, bassist Eldee Young and drummer Red Holt) on ten Christmas songs, five of which add a string section arranged by Riley Hampton. The renditions of ... see all copies from £6.27! new only from £8.80!
6	Christmas '64 [2005] (1964) more music like this by Jimmy Smith see all copies from £5.38! new only from £5.38!
7	Ultra-Lounge Sampler (1996) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from £6.26! new only from £12.95!
8	Funkin' for Jamaica: Best of Tom Browne (1998) more music like this by Tom Browne see all copies from £4.87! new only from £5.91!
9	This Meets That (2007) more music like this by John Scofield This Meets That finds guitarist John Scofield looking both backward and forward. It's his first recording for the Emarcy label, but for the occasion Scofield resurrected the trio he'd used on several previous albums, most recently 2004's EnRoute: bassist Steve Swallow and drummer Bill Stewart. Never one to rest on his laurels, Scofield has ... see all copies from £7.64! new only from £8.76!
10	The Funk Box (2000) more music like this by Various Artists At four discs and 55 tracks, Hip-O's Funk Box seems to want to be the last word on funk, and while it's a pretty good set, it ends up more representative than definitive of its chosen genre. Virtually all of funk's most important artists are featured, but not always by their most significant singles -- sometimes the collection gets it right, and ... see all copies from £22.22! new only from £35.30!
11 view cover	Point of No Return (1993) more music like this by Hans Zimmer The soundtrack to the 1993 Bridget Fonda vehicle (and remake of Luc Besson's Nikita) Point of No Return is in two halves. The first features the distinctive work of composer Hans Zimmer, who here melds tense, moody new age soundscapes to touches of conventional symphonic scoring. The effect works best on "Happy Birthday, Maggie" and "Hells Kitchen ... see all copies from £4.87! new only from £7.91!
12 view cover	The Best of Down to the Bone (2007) more music like this by Down to the Bone Celebrating a decade of making music, The Best of Down to the Bone collects 11 of the soul-jazz/fusion band's biggest songs -- at least one from each of their six albums -- into one neatly compiled collection. Released by Narada, who Down to the Bone has been with since 2004's Cellar Funk, this best-of is a superfluous addition to anyone who has ... see all copies from £9.26! new only from £9.26!
13 view cover	Baby Loves Jazz: Go Baby Go! (2006) more music like this by The Baby Loves Jazz Band Verve's Baby Loves Jazz: Go Baby Go! features an unexpected ensemble of New York jazz scenesters performing a mix of well-known children's songs and new compositions geared toward kids. Led by former Lounge Lizards member, trumpeter Steven Bernstein, the group also features such well-respected artists as keyboardist John Medeski, bassist Lonnie ... see all copies from £5.01! new only from £6.96!
14 view cover	The Budos Band II (2007) more music like this by The Budos Band This Brooklyn-based instrumental collective combines slow-burn Afro-beat rhythms with a '70s soul-jazz aesthetic, the latter sound well-known by those already familiar with the Daptone label's other releases. The retro, almost blaxploitation soundtrack groove pushes the predominantly Afro style into American soul territory. They call it "Afro-soul ... see all copies from £8.34! new only from £8.34!
15 view cover	Soul Christmas (1968) more music like this by Various Artists This 1991 reissue includes eight of the original 11 tracks included on the Atco 1968 release (a rare album still worth seeking), with 11 more tracks added from the Atlantic vaults. Few, if any, Christmas compilations are more essential than this. Otis Redding's performances of "White Christmas" and "Merry Christmas, Baby" are alone worth the price ... see all copies from £6.38! new only from £8.28!
16 view cover	The Complete On the Corner Sessions (2007) more music like this by Miles Davis From the opening four notes of Michael Henderson's hypnotically minimal bass that open the unedited master of "On the Corner," answered a few seconds later by the swirl of color, texture, and above all rhythm, it becomes a immediately apparent that Miles Davis had left the jazz world he helped to invent -- forever. The 19-minute-and-25-second ... see all copies from £64.70! new only from £64.70!
17 view cover	Concord Records SACD Sampler, Vol. 1 (2003) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from £6.61! new only from £6.61!
18 view cover	Cannonball's Bossa Nova (1962) more music like this by Julian "Cannonball" Adderley With The Bossa Rio Sextet Of Brazil see all copies from £7.16! new only from £9.14!
19 view cover	A Jazz Romance: A Night in With Verve (2001) more music like this by Various Artists In jazz, ballads have a way of separating the men from the boys and the women from the girls. They show what an improviser is made of emotionally. On ballads, technique for the sake of technique doesn't cut it -- you have to bring some genuine feeling and honest-to-God emotion to the table. And there is plenty of honest-to-God emotion on this four ... see all copies from £18.44! new only from £18.44!
20 view cover	Retrospective (1999) more music like this by Horace Silver Career-spanning retrospectives are always difficult to pull off in jazz, since the music is often about the moment. An artist can peak for a few years, and that's what's worth hearing -- the rest is interesting, but not quite as compelling, as a lengthy four-disc box set can prove. That certainly isn't the case with the four-disc Horace Silver ... see all copies from £38.72! new only from £38.72!
21 view cover	Progressions: 100 Years of Jazz Guitar (2005) more music like this by Various Artists This expansive four-disc anthology essentially covers the recorded history of the guitar in the 20th century, beginning with the ragtime banjo that set the table for the role of the guitar in a jazz setting in the early 1900s, and then touching all the bases clear through to the post-postmodern possibilities of the instrument in the 21st century. ... see all copies from £20.41! new only from £20.41!
22 view cover	Hot Jazz for a Cool Yule (1996) more music like this by Jim Cullum The Live from the Landing PBS radio series regularly features trumpeter Jim Cullum's Jazz Band on well-scripted shows. This particular CD finds Cullum and his hot group (with either Brian Oglivie or Allan Vache on clarinet, trombonist Mike Pittsley, pianist John Sheridan, Howard Elkins doubling on banjo and guitar, bassist Don Mopsick and drummer ... see all copies from £11.30! new only from £11.30!
23 view cover	Swiss Movement: Montreux 30th Anniversary Edition (1969) more music like this by Les McCann/Eddie Harris One of the most popular soul-jazz albums of all time, and one of the best, although Harris (and trumpeter Benny Bailey) had never played or rehearsed with the Les McCann Trio before, and indeed wasn't even given the music. Perhaps that sparked the spontaneous funk that comes through clearly on the tape of this show, recorded at the Montreux ... see all copies from £7.86! new only from £7.86!
24 view cover	Verve Presents: The Very Best of Christmas Jazz (2001) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from £6.98! new only from £6.98!
25 view cover	Mwandishi: The Complete Warner Bros. Recordings (1969) more music like this by Herbie Hancock While no one can argue that Herbie Hancock's early Blue Note recordings aren't milestones in his career and some are as enduring as any other jazzman's in history, the mostly overlooked Warner Bros. period remains one of his most adventurous, creatively satisfying, and amazingly enduring. The three albums presented here all offer wildly different ... see all copies from £10.41! new only from £10.41!
