1	Mali to Memphis: An African-American Odyssey (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Mali to Memphis: An African-American Odyssey purports to show the cultural connection of West African music and American blues by example. In this, the compilation is fairly successful. On listening to the opening track, "Mon Amour, Mon Cherie," by Amadou & Mariam, you immediately make a mental connection to the CD's last track, Taj Mahal's ... see all copies from $13.37! new only from $13.37!
2	Feelin' Good (1987) more music like this by Jessie Mae Hemphill Feelin' Good was the first album Jessie Mae Hemphill released in the United States and it differs from its predecessor She-Wolf in that it captures her at her rawest. Half of the record features her supported only by a rhythm guitar and drums, while the other half has Hemphill wailing away at her guitar and percussion simultaneously. The result is ... see all copies from $8.51! new only from $8.51!
3	Get Right Blues (2004) more music like this by Jessie Mae Hemphill Until a stroke sidelined her in 1993, Jessie Mae Hemphill may well have been the most accomplished and versatile of the North Mississippi folk-blues musicians who emerged in the early 1980s with a stripped down, primal version of jook blues that was (and is) at stylistic odds with most of the contemporary blues scene (not that Hemphill and company ... see all copies from $14.47! new only from $14.47!
4	She-Wolf (1981) more music like this by Jessie Mae Hemphill This compact disc reissue gathers up all the original tracks from Jessie Mae's 1980 debut album for the French Vogue label along with four remixed bonus tracks, all seeing their first domestic release. Recorded by folklorist Dr. David Evans (who also contributes second guitar on 13 of the 15 tracks here) in various locales around Memphis and ... see all copies from $14.57! new only from $14.57!
5	It Came from Memphis [Upstart] (1995) more music like this by Various Artists Compilations can by their nature be very diverse affairs. You'd have to search for quite some time, though, to find one that squeezes as much unnerving variety into 19 cuts as this one does. Devoted to odds'n'sods of Memphis popular music from the 1950s to the 1990s, this was compiled by Robert Gordon as a companion CD to his book of the same ... see all copies from $7.97! new only from $15.30!
6	HMG Blues Sampler (1997) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $1.99!
7	Heritage of the Blues: Shake It Baby (2003) more music like this by Jessie Mae Hemphill The 12-song Heritage of the Blues: Shake It Baby collection of Mississippi singer/guitarist Jessie Mae Hemphill is certainly needed. She didn't have the opportunity to record very often. As a matter of fact, her greatest exposure came through an appearance in Robert Palmer's 1993 film Deep Blues, which featured footage of Hemphill playing bass ... see all copies from $10.98! new only from $10.98!
8	Roots of Rhythm & Blues: A Tribute to the Robert Johnson Era (1992) more music like this by Various Artists This live program featured some of the late legend's old partners - Honeyboy Edwards, Johnny Shines, Robert Jr. Lockwood -- and some of his contemporary successors, such as Lionel Pitchford, Cephas And Wiggins paying heartfelt tribute.

9	National Downhome Blues Festival, Vol. 1 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists The National Downhome Blues Festival was a one- time event held in 1984 in Atlanta, GA. Stretching over five days, the festival featured traditional blues artists in a small venue setting, and the shows were recorded, eventually released on four LPs in 1984. Southland has combined the first two of those LPs on a single disc (the second two have ... see all copies from $17.23! new only from $17.23!
10	Mississippi Blues Festival (2004) more music like this by Jessie Mae Hemphill/Hezekiah & The House Rockers A live set recorded March 19, 1986 in Paris, France, Mississippi Blues Festival includes seven tracks by North Mississippi folk-blues artist Jessie Mae Hemphill followed by five tracks by Hezekiah & the House Rockers. Hemphill plays her trademark ragged, modal North Mississippi juke joint guitar style, and is joined by folklorist Dave Evans on ... see all copies from $31.79! new only from $31.79!
