| 1. |  | Ken Burns's Jazz: The Story of American Music by Various Artists Price: $39.97 Customer Review:  Let me just say that I'm not too impressed with the series "Ken Burns' Jazz." It was a pretty hack job and really didn't cover all the bases in my opinion. To me, Burns is a very misguided figure and hasn't really done the research about jazz, but I'll save that argument for another time. The music... |

| 3. |  | The Hot Fives & Sevens by Louis Armstrong Price: $25.99 Customer Review:  As the review by Comic Online here - well worth consulting - reminds us: the historical importance and sheer delight of this music vastly outweighs issues of presentation. If you cue up, say, "Potato Head Blues" - and can spend more than a moment or two critically assessing the cleanliness of the... |

| 4. |  | The Best of Pete Fountain by Pete Fountain Price: $10.99 Customer Review: Having seen Pete Fountain in concert (before Katrina), I was delighted to see this CD on sale. Was not disappointed! Love the walkin' tempo of "Just A Closer Walk," and the romp of the high energy Dixieland tunes. Will certainly recommend this for lovers of delicious "licorice stick" talent. |

| 6. |  | Atlantic Rhythm & Blues 1947-1974 by Various Artists Price: $80.99 Customer Review: This is as good as music gets. The first CD is an introductory one, with some dated material, but once you get beyond the 40's, every song is a winner. This contains several Greatest Hits sets all in one place. Just brilliant stuff, to which I'd give my highest recommendation. |

I stumbled onto The Nighhawks after seeing The Aviator and deciding I just had to get my hands on some of "that music." This CD was my first buy. It's the best CD I... |

| 8. |  | Capitol Collectors Series: Louis Prima by Louis Prima Customer Review: There's very little I can add to the previous reviews except to say that this was the reason I bought a CD player years ago. More out of curiosity than anything else, I happened to pick up a copy of "Louis Prima: the Capitol Collectors Series" in its audiocassette format back in the early Nineties.... |

I already have several of the Preservation Hall Jazz Band's LPs. Because of Hurricane Katrina, I didn't know if the Band would be producing any more music. So I bought "The Best... |

| 16. |  | An Anthology of Big Band Swing (1930-1955) by Various Artists Price: $24.99 Customer Review: While there was a renaissance of interest in swing in the 1990s, and while much of this was among a relatively younger --late 20s, 30s, 40s-- audience, swing CDs are increasingly out of print. Decca and Brunswick recorded many important swing artists in the 1930s and 1940s, the period of focus... |
