Music Search Tips Need help finding a specific CD, cassette or vinyl music title? Click on the relevant link below:
Music Keyword Searches Enter one or more keywords using any combination of the artist's name or record's title. If you use more than one keyword, our search engine will restrict the results to titles that each match all the keywords you enter. Here are some examples using Keyword Search:
Enter the name of the artist that interests you. You do not need to enter every word from a band's name if you are unsure of spelling. If you wish to restrict your search results to cassette or vinyl, click the appropriate Format button below the Label field. Once you are presented with the alphabetical list of artists that meets your search criteria, click on the name of the specific artist or CD title that most interests you for more information.
Enter a word or two from the title that interests you. It's best if you leave out common words such as the. If you wish to restrict your search results to cassette or vinyl, click the appropriate Format button below the Label field. Once you are presented with the alphabetical list of titles that meets your search criteria, click on the name of the title that most interests you for more information.
Enter the name of the label that interests you. If you wish to restrict your search results to cassette or vinyl, click the appropriate Format button below the Label field. Once you have conducted your search, you will be presented with a list of titles from any label that meets your search criteria. For example, a search for "Real" will result in a list of titles from Fo Real, Real Music, Keep It Real Records, and many others. A search for "Real Deluxe" will result in a list of titles from that label alone.
You can search by song title to find the record on which a particular song appears. Once you have entered appropriate keywords from the title of the song, you will be presented with a list of titles featuring songs that match your search parameters. For example, a search for "chicken" will result in a long list of records that feature song titles including the word "chicken" while a search for "chicken dinner" will deliver you directly to the detail page for Paul's Boutique by the Beastie Boys, which includes the song "5-Piece Chicken Dinner." How do I search for soundtracks? If you are interested in a particular soundtrack or musical, conduct a keyword search for the title of the movie or show. If you would like to look at a list of the many soundtracks Amazon.com has to offer, perform a keyword search for either "soundtrack" or "original cast". You can also peruse a large selection of popular soundtracks by browsing the Soundtracks page in our Browse Styles area. How do I search for classical music? Our main Classical & Opera search tool allows you to search by seven different methods:
As broad searches are the most successful, utilizing one or two fields at most is recommended. When entering the name of an individual (as you will when using composer, performer and conductor search tools), enter only the last name (example: 'Handel' rather than 'George Frideric Handel'). When entering the album title or name of the ensemble, include only the main words, leaving out common words such as "the" and "of". Searching by catalog number is recommended for quick, precise searches. Many classical reviews will include the catalog number information in the heading of the article. Note: When searching for Polygram albums (which includes Deutsche Grammophon), please exclude the leading '4' or '5' from the catalog number. If you are only aware of the name of the work that interests you, try using our Classical & Opera Work Title Search Tool. For instance, conducting a work title search for "Fifth" and a composer search for "Beethoven" will present a list of every performance of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony available in our catalog.
