| 1. |  | A Charlie Brown Christmas: The Original Sound Track Recording Of The CBS Television Special by Vince Guaraldi Trio Price: $8.99 Customer Review:  Vince Guaraldi was a true jazz master and did his best work writing for the Charlie Brown specials. Every track on this CD is worth listening to musically as well as for the nostalgia. One of the few commercial Christmas albums that does a good job reminding us why there is a Christmas. |

| 4. |  | 'Round About Midnight by Miles Davis Price: $5.99 Customer Review: I'll keep this short. I've got a lot of Miles' Cds and this is probably the one I listen to the most. All the songs are great on it and I love Coltrane's work on this one too. I agree with others that say this is their favorite quintet. Not to negate what the future Davis groupings were but this one... |

| 5. |  | Sketches of Spain by Miles Davis Price: $5.99 Customer Review:  Miles Davis' 1960 album Sketches Of Spain shows a wide variety of Jazz with a few Spanish sounding instruments, which highly explains the reason for the album's title. The horns on the album are so deep and the Spanish bells throughout the background helps elevate the sound. The tracks that I... |

| 6. |  | The Complete Village Vanguard Recordings, 1961 by Bill Evans Price: $15.99 Customer Review: First of all, I was blown away by the recording. The ambience of the audience only adds to the feeling that you are right there, front row, listening, watching three guys ripping it. This is truly one of the best live recordings I have heard, jazz or otherwise. The reperoire between the musicians... |

| 7. |  | Getz/Gilberto by Stan Getz Price: $10.99 Customer Review: I discovered Astrud Gilberto quite by accident when rummaging thru my sister's extensive jazz album collection... Really wanted to hear her defintive interpretations of 'Corcovado' (after being captivated by EBTG's brilliant drum 'n bass remake) and the seminal standard 'The Girl From Ipanema',... |

| 13. |  | Ken Burns's Jazz: The Story of American Music by Various Artists Price: $34.97 Customer Review: When I discussed the Ric Burns documentary about the old West with an Amerindian acquaintance, I complained that the film concentrated on the Lakota, to the exclusion of other peoples. My friend answered that, as the Lakota was the best known native American culture, that was a good place to start,... |

| 14. |  | A Dave Brubeck Christmas by Dave Brubeck Price: $13.99 Customer Review: Enjoyable but not as jazzy as I expected. I understand why after reading the liner notes--Brubeck wanted to do a Christmas album from music he loved as a child, with the whole family around a piano in the parlor. An old-fashioned Christmas. |

| 19. |  | 50 Years of Dave Brubeck: Live at the Monterey Jazz Festival 1958-2007 by Dave Brubeck Price: $13.99 Customer Review: On the whole, this is an excellent CD. The one problem I had was that Take 5 sounds like it was recorded in a bathtub. The sound is muddy/distant and the mix is awful. Paul Desmond's sax is sometimes barely audible on Take Five. This is their signature song; What were they thinking when they mixed... |
