1	Amtrak Blues (1978) more music like this by Alberta Hunter Alberta Hunter's second recording since launching her remarkable comeback (she was 83 when this album was cut) finds the veteran blues singer (a survivor of the 1920s) still in surprisingly strong form and full of spirit. Such songs as "Darktown Strutters' Ball," "My Handy Man," "Old Fashioned Love" and "I've Got a Mind to Ramble" are given fine ... see all copies from $3.79! new only from $5.11!
2	Copulatin' Blues [Mojo] (1996) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $16.37! new only from $16.37!
3	The Glory of Alberta Hunter (1981) more music like this by Alberta Hunter Alberta Hunter's comeback after 20 years off the music scene was quite inspiring. She was (along with Sippie Wallace) virtually the only classic blues singer of the 1920s still active during part of the 1980s, and her four Columbia albums (of which this was the third) are surprisingly strong. With able backing by the Gerald Cook quartet, trumpeter ... see all copies from $8.00!
4	The Legendary Alberta Hunter: '34 London Sessions (1981) more music like this by Alberta Hunter This handsome album is a bit of an oddity. Alberta Hunter, famous as a jazz-oriented blues singer in the 1920s, reinvented herself as a sophisticated stage singer in London. Her 11 recordings with Jack Jackson's society dance orchestra in 1934 are very straight, outside of jazz and somewhat dated today. Whether it be "Two Cigarettes in the Dark," ... see all copies from $5.50! new only from $9.29!
5	Chicago: The Living Legends (1961) more music like this by Alberta Hunter & Lovie Austin's Blues Serenaders This CD reissue is notable for two main reasons. It finds Alberta Hunter (who had retired from music in 1954 to become a nurse and who in the interim had only recorded once, two weeks earlier) in peak form on such numbers as "St. Louis Blues," "Downhearted Blues" and "You Better Change." In addition, it was pianist Lovie Austin's first recording ... see all copies from $10.80! new only from $10.80!
6	Songs We Taught Your Mother (1961) more music like this by Alberta Hunter Although Alberta Hunter, who had briefly come out of retirement, gets first billing on this CD reissue, in reality she shares the spotlight with two other veterans of the 1920s: Lucille Hegamin and Victoria Spivey. Each of the singers is featured on four songs apiece while backed by such top players as clarinetist Buster Bailey, trombonist J.C. ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
7	Soultry Divas (1999) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $5.36! new only from $8.78!
8	The Women (Classic Female Jazz Artists: 1939-1952) (1931) more music like this by Various Artists Many of the Bluebird reissues are a bit disappointing due to their sampler nature, programming a lot of unrelated highlights together instead of coming out with the original complete sessions. This set jumps all over the place with some rare items by Mary Lou Williams, Beryl Booker, Vivien Garry, the International Sweethearts Of Rhythm and Hazel ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $19.28!
9	Blues Masters, Vol. 11: Classic Blues Women (1993) more music like this by Various Artists Although it is now a male dominated field, the earliest to record and have success in the blues field were women. This volume not only collects up many of the great recordings by these women (Mamie, Trixie and Bessie Smith, Billie Holiday, Sippie Wallace, Ma Rainey), but also holds the distinction in the series of being one of the few that offers ... see all copies from $14.65! new only from $24.97!
10	Look for the Silver Lining (1982) more music like this by Alberta Hunter Classic blues singer Alberta Hunter's final recording (made when she was 87, two years before her death) is as powerful as her previous three Columbia albums. The legendary delightful singer puts plenty of feeling into "Look for the Silver Lining," "He's Funny That Way," "Somebody Loves Me" and four of her originals. As was true of each of her ... see all copies from $12.00!
11	Beale Street Blues: 1921-1940 (2000) more music like this by Alberta Hunter This is a compilation of Alberta Hunter's recordings from the first 20 years of her career. During this time she took a ten-year hiatus, so there is a significant shift in style between the records she made in the early '20s with those from the '30s. This change is evident in a number of ways. The recording quality improved significantly, so her ... see all copies from $8.00!

16 view cover	Too Late, Too Late Blues, Vol. 7 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists Volume seven in this series of rarities (which includes alternate takes and 13 formerly unissued performances) has music that blues collectors will certainly consider valuable. There are a couple odd sermons from Deacon Mose, and then performances from Alice Pearson, Clifford Hayes' Louisville Stompers, Lonnie Johnson, and an entire session by ... see all copies from $14.47! new only from $14.47!
17	The Copulatin' Blues [Stash CD] (1929) more music like this by Various Artists The Stash label began in 1976 with a dozen or so LPs that featured subject matter from the 1930s that was considered risque for the period. In the case of this album, the 16 selections all have to do with sex; several cuts were previously unreleased and few had very wide circulation. Such top jazz and blues artists as Sidney Bechet, Lil Johnson, ... see all copies from $44.95! new only from $44.95!

19	Classic Alberta Hunter: The Thirties (1935) more music like this by Alberta Hunter After returning to the United States from England in 1935, Alberta Hunter continued working as a jazz-oriented singer in the U.S. although she maintained a lower profile than in the 1920s. She just had three recording sessions during 1935-40 (all of the music is included on this valuable LP) and eight numbers in 1950 (two of which are here) prior ... see all copies from $73.04!
