Anouar Brahem headlines the Top 25 in our annual jazz bestsellers chart with his rich and sweeping album After The Last Sky, a winner of a 2025 Presto Music Recording of the Year award, and a highly-rated Recording of the Week back in March. It's one of the many ECM titles that occupied some of the top spots in 2025, including Keith Jarrett's archived concert release New Vienna at No. 2, and albums from artists such as Fred Hersch, Joe Lovano and Wolfgang Muthspiel also making the list. 

Other major jazz hits of 2025 include octogenarian Charles Lloyd with his album Figure in Blue, and an archived Ella Fitzgerald recording from Verve - also another winner of a Presto Music Award for Best Vinyl Archive/Reissue release. Check out the full list below!
