1	Dislocation Blues (2007) more music like this by Chris Whitley/Jeff Lang Recorded in April of 2005, seven months before Chris Whitley's death from lung cancer, Dislocation Blues is a fine, perhaps even glorious, epitaph. Aussie blues guitarist Jeff Lang and Whitley, friends since the mid-'90s, hooked up as part of an Australian tour and took a couple of weeks to record these 14 songs (the final two, Robert Johnson's ... see all copies from $15.98! new only from $15.98!
2	Living With the Law (1991) more music like this by Chris Whitley Chris Whitley's 1991 debut, Living With the Law, was recorded in Daniel Lanois' New Orleans mansion and was produced by Malcolm Burn. The sublimely dark, creepy, and possessed collection sounds completely out of place for the era of slick pop/rock like Milli Vanilli. The tortured album is rich with old-style sounds, from slide-guitars to pedal ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $5.47!
3	Dirt Floor (1998) more music like this by Chris Whitley This is the most consistent and accessible disc of Chris Whitley's off-and-on recording career. The album is just Whitley singing and accompanying himself on banjo, guitar and foot stomp. It has a simple and wonderfully stripped-down sound that fits perfectly with the morose yet tumultuous mood of the songs, establishing a strong atmosphere that ... see all copies from $7.98! new only from $14.33!
4	Perfect Day (2000) more music like this by Chris Whitley After issuing the spare, entirely solo Live at Martyrs' in early 2000, Chris Whitley returned to the studio with drummer Billy Martin and bassist Chris Wood (of Medeski, Martin & Wood fame) to cut the similarly low-key, all covers album Perfect Day. It's a mix of blues standards and rock songs with a poetic bent (writers like Dylan, Reed, and ... see all copies from $15.24! new only from $15.24!
5	War Crime Blues (2004) more music like this by Chris Whitley War Crime Blues is the second of two internet-and-gig-purchase-only albums by Chris Whitley on the Messenger label. The other is Weed, a collection of songs from earlier albums done acoustically, sans band. War Crime Blues is solo acoustic as well, but it makes a hell of a racket. Recorded completely live without overdubs of any kind, Whitley ... see all copies from $11.34! new only from $11.34!
6	Soft Dangerous Shores (2005) more music like this by Chris Whitley After a pair of internet-only live solo acoustic releases -- the excellent Weed and War Crime Blues -- the enigmatic Chris Whitley returns to the studio with Soft Dangerous Shores. Produced by Malcolm Burn -- who also chaired Whitley's 1991 debut Living with the Law -- the set is a deeply atmospheric, intricately textured collection of skeletally ... see all copies from $13.15! new only from $13.15!
7	Rocket House (2001) more music like this by Chris Whitley Anyone who has the balls to combine turntable scratching and trip-hop beats with banjo playing on the same song -- and make it work -- as Chris Whitley does on the Middle Eastern-tinged "To Joy (Revolution of the Innocents)" deserves a collective bow-down to. This unorthodox, textured, and electronic-oriented album opener to Whitley's seventh ... see all copies from $7.48! new only from $13.84!
8	Long Way Around: An Anthology 1991-2001 (2002) more music like this by Chris Whitley see all copies from $12.93! new only from $12.93!
9	Live at Martyrs' (2000) more music like this by Chris Whitley Just a man and his guitar: that's all Live at Martyrs' is. Yet it is perhaps the best way to hear Chris Whitley, separated from the studio trappings that had a tendency to obscure and hinder his otherwise gutsy folk-blues on previous recordings, and planted precisely in the element that helped earn him his name in singer/songwriter and critical ... see all copies from $6.11! new only from $9.52!
10	Wood (1998) more music like this by Johnny Society Whereas the colorful production on the first record had a tendency to implement a sonic uniformity from time to time on songs that were actually extremely unique, the band allows their idiosyncrasies -- and more importantly, their songs -- to speak for themselves on Wood. The kaleidoscopic production is a more understated match for the muse. The ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.13!
11 view cover	Hotel Vast Horizon (2003) more music like this by Chris Whitley Like Bob Dylan, Chris Whitley's music is deeply informed by the blues. But, also like Dylan, it is defined by a weird rhythmic amorphousness. What at first seems like indistinct strumming is soon brought into shape by angular melodies delivered in Whitley's unmistakable voice -- deep and seemingly sedated. Chord changes are transparent, falling in ... see all copies from $13.15! new only from $13.15!
12 view cover	Clairvoyance (2000) more music like this by Johnny Society For the first time in three albums, Johnny Society was officially a full trio on Clairvoyance, as multi-instrumentalists Kenny Siegal and Brian Geltner were joined by Gwen Snyder (who also records as Blueberry). And when the album opens on "Blue Plastic Bag" with a honky-tonk piano not far removed from prime-period Elton John before progressing ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
13 view cover	Weed (2004) more music like this by Chris Whitley Weed is one of two albums issued by Chris Whitley as interim offerings between Hotel Vast Horizon and his forthcoming studio outing available only at gigs or from the Messenger Records web site. This volume features solo acoustic versions of songs from his catalog while the other, War Crime Blues, contains eight new songs and three cover tunes, ... see all copies from $11.34! new only from $11.34!
14 view cover	Wouldn't It Be Beautiful? (1999) more music like this by Various Artists As spontaneous performance artist Timothy "Speed" Levitch says in the introduction that opens the album, "This may seem like a compilation; this may seem like an album," but it is ultimately much more than either of those things. On the one hand it is an outstanding sampler that displays the type of remarkable pop music put out by New York's ... see all copies from $2.42! new only from $2.42!

18 view cover	Reiter In (2006) more music like this by Chris Whitley & The Bastard Club One has to wonder if Reiter In is, in fact, the late Chris Whitley's last will and testament in terms of recordings. Done in the first three days of June, 2005 -- he was already ill -- this set was recorded in New York with a host of friends he called "the Bastard Club" on analogue tape. The band is large, the sound is immediate. The feel is loose ... see all copies from $11.86! new only from $11.86!
19 view cover	Big Sky Country (2005) more music like this by Chris Whitley Sony Special Products' compilation Big Sky Country is a ten-track, budget-priced set highlighting Chris Whitley's Columbia recordings, including "Living with the Law," "Narcotic Prayer," "New Machine," and "Big Sky Country." As budget-line collections go, this one isn't bad, but better compilations are available for not much more money. Al ... see all copies from $5.54! new only from $5.54!
