1	Mermaid Avenue (1998) more music like this by Billy Bragg & Wilco During the spring of 1995, Woody Guthrie's daughter Nora contacted British urban folk troubadour Billy Bragg about writing music for a selection of completed Guthrie lyrics. This was no minor task -- Guthrie left behind over a thousand sets of complete lyrics written between 1939 and 1967 that had no music other than a vague stylistic notation. ... see all copies from $12.91! new only from $12.91!
2	Daddy-O Daddy!: Rare Family Songs of Woody Guthrie (2001) more music like this by Various Artists As passionate as dust bowl troubadour Woody Guthrie was about politics and inequality, he was even more passionate about children, particularly his own. It has been long known that Guthrie left behind a wealth of unrecorded and half completed songs while he was living in New York near the end of his life, the most famous of these appearing as ... see all copies from $5.88! new only from $15.11!
3	Back to Basics (1987) more music like this by Billy Bragg After Elektra signed Billy Bragg to his first major-label deal and released Talking With the Taxman About Poetry in 1986, the label decided to do a clean-up job on his back catalog and compiled Back to Basics, which combined the material from Bragg's first three records -- Life's a Riot With Spy vs Spy, Brewing Up With Billy Bragg, and Between the ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $8.00!
4	Don't Mourn - Organize!: Songs of Labor Songwriter Joe Hill (1990) more music like this by Various Artists The inclusion of Joan Baez's version of "Joe Hill" on the Woodstock album has been single-handedly responsible for keeping Joe Hill in the public consciousness. Sad but true, for Joe Hill, poet, songwriter, and organizer, was the most popular intentionally proletarian artist in American culture. Not an easy feat, especially considering how many ... see all copies from $11.84! new only from $15.42!
5	Where Have All the Flowers Gone: The Songs of Pete Seeger (1998) more music like this by Various Artists After listening to this multi-artist two-CD celebration of Pete Seeger's songs, you'll be delighted to read in the liner notes that it's "just the beginning of at least four volumes." Producer Jim Musselman calls the package a "labor of love," and that's clearly what it was. Musselman did a terrific job of choosing the songs from Seeger's vast ... see all copies from $30.20! new only from $30.20!
6	Workers Playtime [Bonus CD] (2006) more music like this by Billy Bragg By the time Billy Bragg began recording Workers Playtime in the fall of 1987, he'd gone from a rabble-rousing leftist songwriter and D.I.Y. one-man punk band to a bona fide pop star in the U.K., and had won a sizable cult following (and a major-label recording contract) in the United States. In addition, Bragg had begun expanding the stark sound ... see all copies from $18.09! new only from $18.09!
7	Volume I (2006) more music like this by Billy Bragg Billy Bragg's first and best music reflected a union of two complementary musical approaches that had yet to be brought together -- the tradition of topical songwriting which dated back to the earliest days of British folk and championed in the 20th century by the likes of Woody Guthrie and Phil Ochs, and the working-class ranting of British punk, ... see all copies from $64.65! new only from $64.65!
8	Talking with the Taxman About Poetry [Bonus Disc] (2006) more music like this by Billy Bragg The cover to Billy Bragg's Talking with the Taxman About Poetry features the subtitle "the difficult third album," and while it's obviously meant as a joke, there's also a certain truth to the statement -- after two EPs and a full-length album that rarely featured anything other than Bragg's voice and electric guitar, Talking with the Taxman ... see all copies from $17.06! new only from $17.06!
9	England, Half English (2002) more music like this by Billy Bragg & the Blokes see all copies from $7.95! new only from $13.59!
10	Workers Playtime (1988) more music like this by Billy Bragg By the time Billy Bragg began recording Workers Playtime in the fall of 1987, he'd gone from a rabble-rousing leftist songwriter and D.I.Y. one-man punk band to a bona fide pop star in the U.K., and had won a sizable cult following (and a major-label recording contract) in the United States.

12 view cover	Reaching to the Converted (1999) more music like this by Billy Bragg This is no ragtag rummage sale of leftovers, castoffs, and third-rate rejects. Having previously purchased the ten singles Reaching is culled from, spanning 1985-1997, one nevertheless revels in the poignant, luxurious breadth of Bragg's heart and brain. Like Bragg's real LPs, this is a roadmap to the spectrum of feeling, from bliss to misery and ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $10.92!

14 view cover	Don't Try This at Home (1991) more music like this by Billy Bragg After dipping his toes in the notion of using backing musicians on Talking With the Taxman About Poetry, Billy Bragg finally dove in headfirst with Worker's Playtime, but Don't Try This at Home was where Bragg first began to sound completely comfortable with the notion of a full band. With Johnny Marr (who helped produce two tracks), Peter Buck, ... see all copies from $16.96! new only from $16.96!

16 view cover	Help Save the Youth of America EP: Live and Dubious (1988) more music like this by Billy Bragg The "value for money" debate that preoccupied '80s audiences and labels made the EP become a relevant format (especially in the U.S., where it had lain dormant since the '50s and '60s). Budget-priced EPs (or "mini-albums") became a convenient way of plugging the gap between two- and three-year album-release cycles. Help Save the Youth of America ... see all copies from $12.00!

18 view cover	William Bloke (1996) more music like this by Billy Bragg Following the release of Don't Try This At Home, Billy Bragg went into seclusion for five years, as he raised his young child. William Bloke reflects a newfound maturity for Bragg, as he tones down his attack and returns to simple, acoustic-based arrangements. Though there are a few songs that are infused with his trademark leftist politics, most ... see all copies from $3.66! new only from $19.38!

21 view cover	Rubaiyat: Elektra's 40th Anniversary (1990) more music like this by Various Artists The label's current artists cover its all-timers, e.g., The Cure meets The Doors. An interesting idea, it has sketchy results. Dan Heilman, All Music Guide see all copies from $5.75!
22 view cover	The Internationale (1990) more music like this by Billy Bragg Billy Bragg's albums have always contained material with the strong political slant of classic folksingers in the Woody Guthrie/Bob Dylan mold. This release shows him at his most muckrakingly fervent and angry. Only "The Marching Song of the Covert Battalions" has music actually composed by Bragg -- and that selection contains a lengthy quote of ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $20.29!
23 view cover	Out Loud (1995) more music like this by Various Artists This compilation brings together an eclectic mix of major-label artists and up-and-coming artists stepping forward with powerful recordings about freedom, dignity and honesty -- all to benefit the International Gay & Lesbian Human Rights Commission (IGLHRC). Rare tracks from U2 and Throwing Muses are included, as well as contributions from ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $24.15!
24 view cover	Troubadours of British Folk, Vol. 3: An Evolving Tradition (1995) more music like this by Various Artists The final volume of the series covers the mid-'70s to the mid-'90s, emphasizing traditional acts who pepped things up with a bit of electricity and eclecticism (Silly Wizard, Mouth Music), acoustic guitarists (Nic Jones, Dick Gaughan, Martin Simpson), "rogue" folkies who merged traditional sounds with influences from modern rock, world music, and ... see all copies from $39.30!
25 view cover	Mr. Love & Justice (2008) more music like this by Billy Bragg It's both significant and troubling that Billy Bragg's best albums since releasing Talking with the Taxman About Poetry in 1986 were the two Mermaid Avenue volumes, in which Bragg set Woody Guthrie's unpublished lyrics to new music with Wilco serving as his collaborators and backing band, suggesting that this former one-man band suddenly needed ... see all copies from $15.22! new only from $15.22!
