I love the recordings he did with the cup mute on the record Meet Mr. Roberts and Bottoms Up - It's Only A Paper Moon and Everything's Coming Up In Roses come to mind, but all the others too. Even with the mute his huge sound just eats up the microphone.

He also did an album called I'll Play For You Forever; I like Lament, Send In The Clowns, and What Are You Doing The Rest Of Your Life from that record. Admittedly, instead of a live band he used backing tracks that sound kind of laughable in my opinion... but he still sounds great.

I do love his recording of It's Only A Paper Moon he was really killer on melodies.
