I got you... Amazon.com and iTunes are great place to get music electronically... or do what I do which is get them from the library you can borrow these CDs for free.

In no certain order from my collection,

20th Century Piano Genius Disc 1 and 2 - Art Tatum
A Charlie Brown Christmas - Vince Guaraldi
Consecration Disc 7 - Bill Evans Trio
He Had a Hat - Jeff Lorber
The Herbie Hancock Box Disc 1,2,3,4 - Herbie Hancock

Last Waltz: The Final Recordings Line Disc 5 - Bill Evans Trio
Light Years - Chick Corea's Elektric Band
Mint Jam Disc 1 and 2 - Yellowjackets

I know it's not a CD but go to RickyDraper.com He gets down on the Jazz Piano tip

Anything by Art Tatum, McCoy Tyner, Chick Corea, or Oscar Peterson will get the job done.

Yo, get "The Piano" by Herbie Hancock.

It's a Solo Piano Project and it's TIGHT.
