1	Blues Masters, Vol. 4: Harmonica Classics (1992) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Vol. 4: Harmonica Classics is a typically ace installment of the Blues Masters series has examples par excellence from most of the major electric blues harmonica geniuses, including Little Walter, Junior Wells, Sonny Boy Williamson, James Cotton, Paul Butterfield, Billy Boy Arnold, Lazy Lester, and Jimmy Reed. And while there are a few expected ... see all copies from $9.89! new only from $9.89!
2	Chess Blues (1992) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Chess Blues is a superlative four-CD box set featuring important tracks by all the main stars of the label (Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Little Walter, Sonny Boy Williamson), as well as much previously unreleased material. A well-done retrospective of Chicago blues in its heyday, as recorded by America's greatest blues label, Chess. ~ Cub Koda, All ... see all copies from $46.68! new only from $46.68!
3	Ten Million Dollars (1984) more music like this by Billy Boy Arnold add to wishlist Recording opportunities were scarce for Arnold stateside in 1984. But over in France, Black & Blue welcomed the harpist into their studios to cut this set, backed by guitarist Jimmy Johnson's professional outfit. Only a handful of originals here; the set is predominated by hoary standards such as "My Babe," "Just a Little Bit," "Last Night," and ... see all copies from $11.98! new only from $11.98!
4	More Blues on the South Side (1963) more music like this by Billy Boy Arnold add to wishlist Over half a decade away from the studio didn't hinder Billy Boy Arnold one bit on this 1963 session. His still-youthful vocals, strong harp, and imaginative songs are very effectively spotlighted, backed by a mean little Chicago combo anchored by guitarist Mighty Joe Young and pianist Lafayette Leake. The CD reissue adds a previously unreleased ... see all copies from $8.16! new only from $8.16!
5	Eldorado Cadillac (1995) more music like this by Billy Boy Arnold add to wishlist Billy Boy Arnold, a fluent blues harmonica player and an expressive singer, made his initial impact in the 1950s/early '60s, but then went three decades between American records. The second recording from his comeback, Eldorado Cadillac, finds Arnold (who worked many yeas earlier with Bo Diddley) in enthusiastic form while utilizing a top-notch ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $8.60!
6	The Alligator Records 25th Anniversary Collection (1996) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist This is a specially priced, two-CDs-for-the-price-of-one photo-cube set, loaded with great stuff from Charlie Musselwhite, Koko Taylor, Lonnie Brooks, Johnny Winter, Billy Boy Arnold, Lonnie Mack, and a host of others who have trotted their wares on the label over the years. Besides giving the novice one great introduction to the label (as the ... see all copies from $5.95! new only from $9.88!
7	Going to Chicago (1966) more music like this by Billy Boy Arnold add to wishlist Uneven but intriguing 1966 collection, most of it previously unreleased. The first half-dozen sides are the best, full of ringing West Side-styled guitar licks by Mighty Joe Young and Jody Williams and Arnold's insinuating vocals (he rocks "Baby Jane" with a Chuck Berry-inspired fury). An odd drumless trio backs Arnold on the next seven selections ... see all copies from $9.78! new only from $9.78!
8	Back Where I Belong (1993) more music like this by Billy Boy Arnold add to wishlist Indeed he is. Recorded in Los Angeles with a crew of young acolytes offering spot-on backing (guitarists Zach Zunis and Rick Holmstrom acquit themselves well), Arnold eases back into harness with a remake of "I Wish You Would" before exposing some fine new originals (the Chuck Berry-styled rocker "Move on Down the Road" is a stomping standout) and ... see all copies from $10.42! new only from $10.42!
9	Boogie 'n' Shuffle (2001) more music like this by Billy Boy Arnold add to wishlist At this point in his career, harmonica legend Billy Boy Arnold could just coast on his Chicago blues laurels, rehashing his old tunes and tricks whenever he decides to cut a new album. But fortunately, Arnold doesn't buy into shortcuts, and neither does his producer for this session, Duke Robillard. On Boogie 'n' Shuffle, Arnold really lets it rip ... see all copies from $15.49! new only from $15.49!
10	Blues Harp Greats (1997) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from $4.43!
11	Evidence Blues Sampler: Four (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Volume four in the Evidence Blues Sampler series includes one track each from the label's 16 blues releases over a short six-month period during late 1994 and early 1995. The quality's still relatively high though, thanks to good selection and an ear for songs that work well together. Highlights include Willie Mabon's "Little Red Rooster" from ... see all copies from $2.74! new only from $7.57!
12	Genuine Houserockin' Music (1986) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from $3.99!
13	Catfish (1999) more music like this by Billy Boy Arnold add to wishlist A decent early-'70s release from Billy Boy Arnold, Catfish sees the singer recording in the U.K. with Tony McPhee & the Groundhogs backing. Arnold is in fine form, with excellent harmonica playing throughout, and singing with conviction. Unfortunately, his British band is workmanlike at best, and never really catches fire. Having said that, ... see all copies from $7.57! new only from $7.57!
14	Consolidated Mojo (2005) more music like this by Billy Boy Arnold add to wishlist Recorded in San Francisco in 1992 with producer/harpist Mark Hummel's band of the time, but not released until 2005 for reasons that are not explained in the liner notes, this is better than average traditional Chicago blues from one of the genre's creators. All 14 tracks were cut in a single eight-hour session with no time for overdubs at the end ... see all copies from $16.81! new only from $16.81!
15	Playin' the Blues (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from $1.99!
16	The Real Blues Brothers (1987) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist This is a nice Vee-Jay collection with representative cuts from Pee Wee Crayton, John Lee Hooker, Jimmy Reed, Lightnin' Hopkins, Billy Boy Arnold, Memphis Slim and a stray track from Brownie McGhee and Sonny Terry. The big ticket for collectors on this one, however, is the inexplicable bonus of a previously unissued Eddie Taylor number, "Leave ... see all copies from $5.95! new only from $34.99!
17	A Celebration of Blues: Chicago Blues (1996) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from $1.99!
18	Essential Blues Harmonica (1997) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Essential Blues Harmonica is an excellent look at some of the genre's chart-toppers and innovators. Most importantly, it is a healthy dose of harmonica ringing with vocalic beauty from those who heavily defined the blistering blues. It is certainly a touching look back at some of the classic cuts by Sonny Boy Williamson, Howlin' Wolf, and Jimmy ... see all copies from $12.00!
19	Howlin' the Blues (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.42!
20	Blues Before Sunrise Live, Vol. 1 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from $14.45! new only from $14.45!
21	House of Blues: Essential Chicago Blues (1997) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist "Essential' is a subjective word, but this two disc set certainly contains some pretty great blues performances sandwiched in between the just passable ones. On the plus side, there are classics aboard from Bo Diddley, Otis Rush, Little Walter, Hound Dog Taylor, Muddy Waters (the rarer alternate take of "Hoochie Coochie Man"), J.B. Lenoir, Buddy ... see all copies from $16.81! new only from $16.81!
22	The Bluesville Years, Vol. 2: Feelin' Down on the South Side (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Feelin' Down on the South Side culls the best of the albums that were cut in Chicago with top flight selections by Billy Boy Arnold, Homesick James, Otis Spann and James Cotton. Cotton's "One More Mile To Go" with its voodoo backup chorus from the Muddy Waters band is downright bone chilling and eerie. ~ Cub Koda, All Music Guide see all copies from $8.95! new only from $8.95!
23	Live at the Venue (2000) more music like this by Billy Boy Arnold add to wishlist see all copies from $30.53! new only from $30.53!
24	Blues Fest: Modern Blues of the '90s (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist By the 1990s, the face of blues had changed immensely and this 18-track collection attempts to chronicle those changes. While old-timers like Buddy Guy, Charles Brown, and Etta James were still making new, groundbreaking music, second-liners like Billy Boy Arnold, Smokey Wilson, Willie Kent, and R.L. Burnside had moved up through the ranks to take ... see all copies from $24.99!
25	Down Home Harp (1998) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist A companion volume to Testament's Down Home Slide compilation, this brings together 21 previously unreleased tracks from that label's vaults and a reprise of "Billy Boy's Jump" by Billy Boy Arnold from the original album Goin' to Chicago. There's a real nice blend of styles, and even with big guns aboard like Big Walter Horton and Little Walter ... see all copies from $14.99!
