1	Solid Gold Soul: Deep Soul (2000) more music like this by Various Artists Rhino's Solid Gold Soul: Deep Soul album features 22 intense soul cuts, including Aaron Neville's "Tell It Like It Is," B.B. King's "The Thrill Is Gone," and Otis Redding's "That's How Strong My Love Is." Irma Thomas' "Time Is on My Side," Ben E. King's "Stand By Me," Percy Sledge's "When a Man Loves a Woman," Bobby Bland's "Cry, Cry, Cry," and ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $10.76!
2	The Complete Goldwax Singles (2001) more music like this by James Carr All 28 songs from Carr's 1964-1970 Goldwax singles are here, which is enough to make it a fair bid for a good best-of compilation, although it doesn't have everything he recorded. About half of the songs on this British import are not on the most well-known American CD compilation of Carr's work, The Essential James Carr, and those tracks are ... see all copies from $19.36! new only from $19.36!
3	Soul Spectacular! The Greatest Soul Hits of All Time (2002) more music like this by Various Artists If you've been collecting records for any length of time -- from two months to two decades -- chances are you already own a good chunk of the 88 songs on Rhino's 2002 four-disc box set, Soul Spectacular! The Greatest Soul Hits of All Time. If you're just assembling your collection, you may only have a handful of the songs here, so this cornucopia ... see all copies from $39.52! new only from $52.48!
4	You Got My Mind Messed Up [Bonus Tracks] (2002) more music like this by James Carr This CD reissue of Carr's first album, 1967's You Got My Mind Messed Up, doubles the length of that LP with no less than 12 bonus tracks, all of them rare and unreleased. You Got My Mind Messed Up is a fine '60s Memphis soul album, even if, in the manner of many LPs of the time, it's largely built around previously released singles. Indeed, ten of ... see all copies from $13.01! new only from $17.74!
5	A Man Needs a Woman (1968) more music like this by James Carr Along with his other original Goldwax LP, You Got My Mind Messed Up, James Carr's Man Needs a Woman represents one of the high watermarks of Southern soul music. And beyond his tonal resemblance to Otis Redding, Carr was as distinct a voice as the genre ever produced. Compilations on both Kent (Complete Goldwax Singles) and Razor & Tie (The ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $9.00!
6	Soul Survivor (1994) more music like this by James Carr Looking back over ten years since it was released, James Carr's Soul Survivor seems like an unjustly overlooked recording. While it's true that it isn't one of his Goldwax masterpieces, it is nonetheless a hell of a record. For purists who need either a Muscle Shoals or Stax/Volt rhythm section to make it authentic, the slicker 1990s production ... see all copies from $17.53! new only from $28.99!
7	24 Karat Soul (2001) more music like this by James Carr Expect a plethora of James Carr CDs to gut the market; the late singer was always idolized by deep soul lovers for his pure vocal style, unpolished but smooth without any slickness or gloss. The reluctant singer always had issues and often went into laconic states during conversations. But earthy soul lovers will treasure these tracks, which ... see all copies from $11.94! new only from $13.51!
8	The Goldwax Story, Vol. 1 (2001) more music like this by Various Artists The Memphis '60s soul label Goldwax is most known for its lengthy series of singles (many of them R&B hits) with James Carr, but also recorded several other artists during the decade. Three of the 24 tracks on this anthology belong to Carr, including his most famous song, "The Dark End of the Street." Otherwise, though, most of these names will ... see all copies from $12.57! new only from $17.74!
9	Sweet Soul Music: Voices From the Shadows (1992) more music like this by Various Artists An audio companion of sorts to Peter Guralnick's excellent book on Southern soul, Sweet Soul Music, this 15-track compilation takes in some of the best and relatively obscure soul tracks cut by the likes of Atlantic, Hi, and even Sun Records. The scene is Memphis, AL, and a few other Southern locales; the music is raw and smoldering, resplendent ... see all copies from $9.99!
10	You Got My Mind Messed Up (1967) more music like this by James Carr If ever there was a soul singer who rivaled Otis Redding's raw, deep emotional sensuality, it was James Carr, and the proof is in the pudding with You Got My Mind Messed Up. Carr was one of the last country-soul singers to approach any chart given to him as if it was a gift from God. Carr was Redding's rival in every respect if for no other reason ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $9.00!
11	Knowing the 1990's Goldwax & Soultrax (2006) by James Carr see all copies from $14.11! new only from $22.01!
12 view cover	The Essential James Carr (1995) more music like this by James Carr When the soul era of the mid-'60s was in full bloom, for a period of three years James Carr was the maker of some of its mightiest music. His warm, soulful voice could make the reading of virtually anything he touched (even his version here of the Bee Gees' "To Love Somebody") a transcendent event. He is also the mystery man of the genre, ... see all copies from $17.99! new only from $30.00!
13 view cover	A Man Needs a Woman [Bonus Tracks] (2003) more music like this by James Carr As it did with James Carr's only other 1960s album, You Got My Mind Messed Up, Ace/Kent added so many bonus tracks to its CD reissue of A Man Needs a Woman that it essentially created an entirely new release. The 11 tracks that comprised Carr's second album, 1968's A Man Needs a Woman, lead off this 24-track release, which adds no less than 13 ... see all copies from $22.95! new only from $22.95!
14 view cover	If Loving You Is Wrong: 20 Cheatin' Heartbreakers (2002) more music like this by Various Artists This actually isn't the first soul compilation devoted to cheating songs; there were a couple on Ichiban/Soul Classics in the mid-'90s. The genre's fertile enough that there's no repetition between those and this 20-song disc, which spans 1967 to 1982, and generally (though not exclusively) mines the earthy, deep soul end of things. With some ... see all copies from $22.01! new only from $22.01!
15	Complete, Vol. 1 (1994) more music like this by James Carr see all copies from $22.98!
16 view cover	Ace of Diamonds (1994) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $12.00!
17 view cover	My Soul Is Satisfied/The Rest of James Carr (2004) more music like this by James Carr With a couple of minor exceptions not worth mentioning, this compilation contains every known James Carr recording not to have made it on to CD before 2004. That means five 1966-70 tracks that didn't find their initial release until LPs issued years later; three previously unavailable alternates from the same era; his 1971 Atlantic single; three ... see all copies from $22.95! new only from $22.95!
18 view cover	Take Me to the Limit (1991) more music like this by James Carr James Carr's comeback, on a resurrected Goldwax label. It doesn't quite live up to his '60s stuff -- maybe nothing could -- but it is good, contemporary Southern soul in the classic vein, and it's great to have him back. Christine Ohlman, All Music Guide see all copies from $18.00!
19 view cover	Soul Patrol, Vol. 1 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists If you're in the mood for Southern soul, your first stop should probably be Stax/Volt's monumental nine-volume Complete Singles Collection, but after you digest that, by all means move on to the lesser-known but almost equally excellent five-disc Soul Patrol anthology. While every CD in the series is packed with superlative examples of the gritty ... see all copies from $43.21! new only from $43.21!
