1	Pistol Packin' Mama/Spin of the Wheel (1998) more music like this by Hoyt Axton This import CD is a reissue of Hoyt Axton's third and fourth studio albums released on his own Jeremiah label. Pistol Packin' Mama, from 1982, is dominated by remakes of well-known songs like the title track, "I Walk the Line," and "Don't Fence Me In." Axton's songwriting contribution is at an all-time low, and one of the few new originals is the ... see all copies from $19.82! new only from $19.82!
2	Flashes of Fire: Hoyt's Very Best 1962-1990 (2004) more music like this by Hoyt Axton Although his only chart success as a musical performer came with a few minor entries on the country lists, several of Hoyt Axton's songs were smashes in cover versions on the pop side of things, starting with the Kingston Trio's hit take on Axton's "Greenback Dollar" in 1962, Three Dog Night's renditions of his "Joy to the World" in 1971 and ... see all copies from $16.12! new only from $18.80!
3	Live! [Edsel] (2006) more music like this by Hoyt Axton see all copies from $18.37! new only from $18.37!
4	Rusty Old Halo/Where Did the Money Go [2006] (2006) more music like this by Hoyt Axton In the late '70s, Hoyt Axton founded Jeremiah Records to release his new albums, and this import two-fer reissues the label's first two offerings. The first, A Rusty Old Halo, takes its name from Axton's rocking remake of a song recorded decades earlier by the Maddox Brothers & Rose. That and "Della and the Dealer," the latter of which Axton ... see all copies from $18.37! new only from $18.37!
5	Songs of the Civil War [Columbia] (1991) more music like this by Various Artists Actually an extension and improvement upon White Mansions. Rock and folk stars doing Civil War songs, all well done. A good companion to the Dirt Band's Will the Circle Be Unbroken. Bruce Eder, All Music Guide see all copies from $9.47! new only from $11.06!
6	Less Than the Song/Life Machine (2007) more music like this by Hoyt Axton Raven's 2007 release Less Than the Song/Life Machine is a straight-up two-fer of Hoyt Axton's first two albums for A&M Records, containing no bonus tracks. Although they were released just a year apart -- Less Than the Song came out in 1973, Life Machine in 1974 -- they're very different records, with the former being a spare, rather haunting ... see all copies from $19.18! new only from $19.18!
7	American Originals (1993) more music like this by Hoyt Axton Part of an odd, short-lived reissued series launched by Capitol in the early '90s, American Originals consists of two 1971 albums, Joy to the World and Country Anthem, plus one previously unreleased track. This period was a transitional one between Axton's uneven folk/rock of the '60s and his country hits of the mid '70s, but on these recordings ... see all copies from $16.79!
8	My Griffin Is Gone (1969) more music like this by Hoyt Axton Hoyt Axton was still in his first decade as a recording artist when he made this album, but it was a decade in which performing artists were certainly encouraged to think lofty thoughts. Pretension was as common on the radio in the late '60s as thongs would be in the '90s, hence we have an album, but sadly enough no song, on the theme of losing ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $16.06!
9	Country Gospel: Wings of a Dove (2000) more music like this by Various Artists Country Gospel: Wings of a Dove gathers traditional country and bluegrass artists that also have backgrounds in southern gospel music. Included among the 42 tracks are "Wings of a Dove" Ferlin Husky "Peace in the Valley" Johnny Cash "Hello Central, Give Me Heaven" Carter Family and "Letter to Heaven" Dolly Parton. This spiritually calming disc ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
10	Free Sailin' (1978) more music like this by Hoyt Axton England's Edsel Records, responsible for reviving so much of Hoyt Axton's catalog in latter days, likewise reissued Free Sailin', his 1978 MCA album, on CD. Although it produced no hits and has only a few originals, it's a strong album that touches on Country anthems ("Honky Tonk Music"), vintage Country (Carson Robison's "Left My Gal in the ... see all copies from $8.00!
11	Bread & Roses Festival 1977 (1979) more music like this by Various Artists This two-record set chronicles the October 1977 benefit concert for Mimi Farina's Bread & Roses organization, which brings music into prisons and hospitals. A broad range of folk-related artists, including Joan Baez, Jackson Browne, Pete Seeger, and Arlo Guthrie, among many others, turns this into a brilliant songwriting showcase. William ... see all copies from $8.31! new only from $10.06!
12 view cover	Gotta Keep Rollin': The Jeremiah Years 1979-1981 (1999) more music like this by Hoyt Axton Gotta Keep Rollin': The Jeremiah Years 1979-1981 spotlights the most creatively and commercially rewarding period of Hoyt Axton's recording career -- assembling 25 songs cut for his own Jeremiah label (so named in honor of his first and biggest composition, the Three Dog Night smash "Joy to the World," also covered here by its writer), the disc ... see all copies from $19.18! new only from $19.18!
13 view cover	The Greatest Stars of Folk Music (1994) more music like this by Various Artists Legacy's The Greatest Stars of Folk Music collects 19 samples from the late-'50s/early-'60s folk revival, almost none of which are the versions that listeners are familiar with. For example, instead of the Clancy Brothers doing "The Risin' of the Moon," you get actor/singer Theodore Bikel; Judy Collins, not A.L. Lloyd, gives listeners the ... see all copies from $3.77! new only from $3.77!
14 view cover	Live! (1981) more music like this by Hoyt Axton see all copies from $18.88! new only from $25.00!
15	Life Machine (1974) more music like this by Hoyt Axton After the interesting but comparatively uncommercial Less Than the Song, Hoyt Axton justified A&M's investment with Life Machine, the album that generated "Boney Fingers," his biggest and most enduring hit. "When the Morning Comes," which features harmony vocals by Linda Ronstadt, also made the country Top Ten and gave Axton his only pop hit. ... see all copies from $4.00!
16 view cover	Joy to the World/Country Anthem (2001) more music like this by Hoyt Axton Raven Records from Australia has released exemplary discs by Ronnie Spector, the Joe Perry Project, Scott McKenzie, and a brilliant What Goes On boxed set of the Velvet Underground prior to Polygram's release of Peel Slowly and See. Here they take two Hoyt Axton 1971 Capitol albums and add a bonus track, "It's Been Fun," which really is fun as ... see all copies from $11.00!
17 view cover	Lonesome Road (1995) more music like this by Hoyt Axton Originally released as an LP, Lonesome Road is a brief collection of ten songs drawn from two 1964 Hoyt Axton albums, Sings Bessie Smith and Explodes. In the '60s Axton's music veered toward folk and rock 'n' roll rather than country, with limited success. "Young Man" and "Big Red" are straight-ahead rockers, and the Bessie Smith material is ... see all copies from $2.85! new only from $2.85!
18 view cover	Snowblind Friend (1977) more music like this by Hoyt Axton see all copies from $147.95!
19	Fearless (1976) more music like this by Hoyt Axton see all copies from $15.00!
20 view cover	Southbound/Fearless (2008) more music like this by Hoyt Axton A sequel to their 2007 two-fer of Less Than the Song/Live Machine, this 2008 release from Raven combines Hoyt Axton's second two albums for A&M -- 1975's Southbound and 1976's Fearless -- as a two-fer on a single disc with no bonus tracks. These two records found Axton's career as a performer on a bit of an upswing, as he capitalized on the ... see all copies from $15.94! new only from $18.80!
21	Rusty Old Halo (1979) more music like this by Hoyt Axton As the '70s came to a final fizzle, this songwriter had a thriving acting career and probably plenty of money. Maybe he didn't need to keep recording, and skeptics who might have been worn down by the uneven nature of his recording career would probably question whether Axton had anything more to say on record. The recording industry that had made ... see all copies from $4.00!
22	Where Did the Money Go? (1980) more music like this by Hoyt Axton Hoyt Axton launched his Jeremiah label with the album A Rusty Old Halo and enjoyed two Top 20 hits. Where Did the Money Go? followed a year later and did not fare as well. The previous album was an all-star affair, but Where Did the Money Go? has a smaller cast that includes Bill Kirchen on guitar. "Betty La Rue" is another of Axton's story-songs ... see all copies from $9.00!
23	Southbound (1975) more music like this by Hoyt Axton By the time of this, his 13th and a relatively unlucky album, Hoyt Axton's talent was not always as strong a force as his own firm belief in the Axton legend: a genius songwriting artist with his own niche, not quite country, not quite rock, not quite pop. It is also the concept of "good old boy" charm that is wrapped around this album like yellow ... see all copies from $6.00!
24	Road Songs (1977) more music like this by Hoyt Axton Featuring instrumental support from James Burton and backing vocals from Linda Ronstadt, Road Songs has a good cross-section of Axton's best-known songs, including "Boney Fingers" and "The No-No Song," making it a good introduction to the songwriter. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $8.00!
25	Explodes (1964) more music like this by Hoyt Axton Axton may have been known as something of a folksinger at the time of this release, and he may have subsequently become known as a country artist, but make no mistake: This is a rock album, albeit a pretty strange one by 1964 standards. Not so much because it's weird, but because it's an uncomfortable intersection of blues, go-go R&B-influenced ... see all copies from $35.00!
