1	The Gold Medal Collection (1988) more music like this by Harry Chapin This is yet another Harry Chapin anthology, which, like the others, is a fine representation of his career. All the hits are here, "Taxi," "Cat's in the Cradle," "W.O.L.D.," "Mr. Tanner," and the like, which are detailed well in the liner notes. This set may be a better choice for the casual fan as opposed to Story of a Life: The Harry Chapin Box ... see all copies from $17.60! new only from $17.60!
2	Heads & Tales (1972) more music like this by Harry Chapin Harry Chapin's debut album is a smoothly put-together, if slightly musically unbalanced piece of singer/songwriter rock, unbalanced because good as everything here is, the hit, "Taxi," and the other songs on the original LP's second side somewhat overwhelm the rest of Heads & Tales. "Taxi" is so elaborately produced and arranged that it's like a ... see all copies from $7.28! new only from $9.60!
3	Greatest Stories Live (1976) more music like this by Harry Chapin Recorded in November 1975, Greatest Stories Live showcases the legendary live performance styles of acoustic troubadour and noted activist Harry Chapin. Recorded over three nights on-stage in California, the double-LP set features all the hits as well as a few notable album cuts that put the musician's musical and personal skills out on the line ... see all copies from $4.89! new only from $11.11!
4	The Essentials (2002) more music like this by Harry Chapin The Essentials more or less lives up to its name, gathering a dozen definitive Harry Chapin songs, including "Taxi," "WOLD," "Cat's in the Cradle," and "30,000 Pounds of Bananas." Other highlights include "Dreams Go By," "Dance Band on the Titanic," and "Better Place to Be." More in keeping with The Anthology of Harry Chapin than The Gold ... see all copies from $5.65! new only from $5.65!
5	On the Road to Kingdom Come (1976) more music like this by Harry Chapin On the Road to Kingdom Come sounded more like a rock album than anything Harry Chapin had done to date. In the hands of sympathetic producer/arranger Stephen Chapin, Harry's songs are infused with clever and often humorous bits of musical commentary -- horns, electric guitars, keyboards, backing vocals, and various sound effects pop up at ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $9.55!
6	Sniper & Other Love Songs (1972) more music like this by Harry Chapin Sniper & Other Love Songs never sold remotely as well as its predecessor, Heads & Tales, mostly because it never had a hit single like "Taxi" to help lift it high on the charts, but it is actually a bolder and better album and a much more balanced record; the lack of an elaborately produced number like "Taxi" may have hurt sales, but it meant that ... see all copies from $7.49! new only from $16.35!
7	Verities & Balderdash (1974) more music like this by Harry Chapin Verities & Balderdash is a very strange and wonderful album. "Cat's in the Cradle" was the driving force behind the album's sales, but there's a lot more to appeal to listeners, along with enough personal, topical material to make it seem a bit didactic at the time, but Chapin was cultivating a politically committed audience. Verities & Balderdash ... see all copies from $6.25! new only from $9.55!
8	Living Room Suite (1978) more music like this by Harry Chapin Listening to Living Room Suite today, you'd never know that it marked the commercial nadir of Harry Chapin's career -- the songs have such touching and startling intimacy, and are so beautifully produced that it's just a damn imposing record, just in the listening. Coming at the tail-end of the second disco boom, the cresting of punk, and the full ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $9.60!
9	Dance Band on the Titanic (1977) more music like this by Harry Chapin Who would have figured, listening to the heart-on-his-sleeve sensibilities of Heads & Tales in 1972, that Harry Chapin would or could ever generate a wry, sly, sardonic double-LP (single CD) album like this? The diversity of this album is its strong point, the core of the record made up of straightforward, serious songs, most notably "We Grew up a ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $9.55!
10	Portrait Gallery (1975) more music like this by Harry Chapin Portrait Gallery failed to follow up the great success of "Cats in the Cradle," and perhaps that was what Chapin had in mind. Much more in line with his first two releases, Portrait Gallery shouldn't be written off just because it didn't get that Top 40 hit. The songs have again become more personal, and the track "Bummer" depicts a medal-winning ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.00!
11 view cover	The Bottom Line Encore Collection (1998) more music like this by Harry Chapin Harry Chapin celebrated his 2000th performance in January 1981 by performing three nights at the Bottom Line, performing a song cycle that began with "Taxi" and ended with "Sequel." Over the course of two discs, The Bottom Line Encore Collection reconstructs that original set list, which features such staples as "Story of a Life," "Old Folkie," ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $12.39!
12 view cover	Once Upon a Song (2001) more music like this by Various Artists Unlike most nostalgia-driven compilations, Once Upon a Song is free of the filler that has bogged down like-minded discs through the years. Focusing in on story-songs from the 1970s, a number of the best ones are here. Launched with what may be the ultimate example of said, Don McLean's timeless "American Pie," the tunes here veer from ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $11.80!
13	Short Stories (2005) more music like this by Harry Chapin see all copies from $6.00! new only from $9.00!
14 view cover	Casey Kasem: America's Top 10 Through Years - The 70's (2001) more music like this by Various Artists Like most of the decade-based installments in Casey Kasem's America's Top 10 series, this set has its hands full with the genre-flooded charts of 1970s pop. But while most retrospectives would include just a few hits surrounded by hit-or-miss filler, Top 10 is crammed with well-known radio favorites, and offers a nice cross-section of the decade's ... see all copies from $15.92! new only from $15.92!
15 view cover	Story of a Life: The Harry Chapin Box (1999) more music like this by Harry Chapin Harry Chapin was always a bit of a polarizing figure, attracting many dedicated fans but never earning much critical respect. Rhino's comprehensive three-disc box set Story of a Life doesn't really offer an opportunity for re-evaluation, nor does it even try to win over doubters. Instead, it tells a thorough history of Chapin's career, not missing ... see all copies from $43.82! new only from $43.82!
16	Anthology of Harry Chapin (1985) more music like this by Harry Chapin Anthology of Harry Chapin is a fine 11-track collection that contains the cream of the inconsistent singer/songwriter's career, including "Taxi," "Sunday Morning Sunshine," "She Is Always Seventeen," "WOLD," "I Wanna Learn a Love Song," "Better Place to Be," and "Cat's in the Cradle." Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies* from $5.30!
17 view cover	Rolling Stone Presents: Male Singer-Songwriters (2001) more music like this by Various Artists Rhino's 2001 release Rolling Stone Presents: Male Singer-Songwriters essentially is a condensed version of the Listen to the Music: Male Singer-Songwriters collection, containing pretty much the same song selection, with the substitutions erring toward the side of the familiar -- Cat Stevens' "Father and Son" becomes "Wild World," and so on. So, ... see all copies from $6.93! new only from $6.93!
18	Legends of the Lost & Found (1979) more music like this by Harry Chapin see all copies from $13.56!

This collection is a good bargain for the budget-conscious, but the better set is The Essentials on Rhino, which also includes "WO ... see all copies* from $5.22! new only from $5.22!
