180 gram vinyl.<br/><br/>Just as Liverpool named its airport after John Lennon, New Orleans' gateway to the sky now bears the name of another musical giant. Like the late Beatle, Louis Armstrong put his home town firmly on the map, and his legacy will be listened to and appreciated for as long as music is played. Wherever in the world you fly from New Orleans, the name of Louis Armstrong is known, revered and respected. Here's a selection of his greatest songs that tell you exactly why.

Red vinyl. Gatefold.<br/><br/>Miles Davis, one of the world's most celebrated musicians, is heard at his very best on this essential collection of many of his finest performances. During a long and turbulent career, the trumpeter, composer and band leader pioneered a new style of sophistication in jazz that spilled over into contemporary culture and made him the King of Cool. Whatever the challenge, whatever the style, from blues to bop, Miles Davis always played with careful consideration and natural brilliance. So What? So good!

180 gram vinyl.<br/><br/>'My Favorite Things' is a key item in Coltrane's discography. He had already recorded some sides for Atlantic Records but these had been made with pick-up groups and showed 'Trane' very much in the accepted hard bop idiom, albeit making grand strides forward with his playing and harmonic searching. Here though, was the first album recorded with his new working outfit with McCoy Tyner and Elvin Jones (Steve Davis, although perfectly capable was merely the first in a line of bassists Coltrane worked his way through before settling on Jimmy Garrison). The music created for this album in late 1960 differed radically from what had preceded it as Coltrane forged his own pioneering path drawing on the modal experiments he'd been involved in with his final leader, Miles Davis.

When it comes to vocal jazz, the ladies win. "Body and Soul" features great jazz standards sung by some of the best-known and most influential female jazz vocalists in history. Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, Dinah Washington, Sarah Vaughan: these performers are so beloved that their first names are enough. This album presents signature recordings by these legendary ladies.
