1	The Specialty Story [Box] (1994) more music like this by Various Artists Label-owner Art Rupe was a savvy businessman who knew the black jukebox industry and what made it tick when he started his Specialty label in the late-'40s. This sumptuous five-disc box set contains a bevy of highlights from this seminal R&B/rock & roll label. Over the years, Rupe recorded a little bit of everything; early big band jump (the ... see all copies from $35.95! new only from $64.98!
2	Troublesome Mind (1961) more music like this by Mercy Dee Fine 16-song selection from the California-based pianist's 1961 sessions for Chris Strachwitz's Arhoolie logo. A trio of sympathetic cohorts (harpist Sidney Maiden, guitarist K.C. Douglas, and drummer Otis Cherry) give the music a rough-edged barroom feel as Dee pounds out "After the Fight," "Call the Asylum," and a nice remake of his dour "One ... see all copies from $6.42! new only from $15.33!
3	R&B Confidential, Vol. 1: The Flair Label (1991) more music like this by Various Artists Compilations don't get much better than this -- 22 of some of the best songs ever made for Joe Bihari's Flair label, founded in 1953 as a subsidiary of Modern Records. Flair was only in existence for two years, mostly as a means of handling overflow from the sister labels Modern, Meteor, etc. The artists featured include a pair of Joe Turner-style ... see all copies from $7.25!
4	Boogie Woogie Riot! (1994) more music like this by Various Artists Boogie Woogie Riot assembles highlights from Arhoolie's extensive back catalog of boogie woogie collections; it includes performances from Piano Red, Lightnin' Hopkins, Walter Horton and Big Joe Williams. Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide see all copies from $8.18! new only from $16.98!
5	The Bluesville Years, Vol. 4: In the Key of Blues (1995) more music like this by Various Artists In the Key of Blues features an all-piano fest with boogies and blues from Mercy Dee Walton, Little Brother Montgomery, Curtis Jones and still more from Sykes and Memphis Slim. Cub Koda, All Music Guide see all copies from $5.89! new only from $12.47!
6	Arhoolie Presents American Masters, Vol. 8: 15 Piano Blues & Boogie Classics (1997) more music like this by Various Artists For Volume Eight of its American Masters budget series, Arhoolie tackles the "blues piano" theme, with a crushing emphasis on the boogie-woogie styles of various Chicago, Kansas City, Texas, Louisiana, and Delta players. The pacing of this album does get predictable after a while (fast boogie, slow blues, fast boogie, slow blues...), but there's ... see all copies from $3.42! new only from $10.43!
7	Blues Roots (2002) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $18.00!
8	Arhoolie 40th Anniversary Collection 1960-2000: The Journey of Chris Strachwitz (2000) more music like this by Various Artists Combine a great ear for music with a firm commitment to recording only what you personally like and you've got the formula that has fueled Arhoolie Records for 40 years. Founder Chris Strachwitz -- a German immigrant and former schoolteacher -- may have seemed an unlikely candidate to become one of the great compilers of regional American popular ... see all copies from $50.72! new only from $50.72!
9	Long Gone Daddies (2000) more music like this by Various Artists What unifies this motley assortment of non-hit 1950s singles, mostly rockabilly in style, although there are a few R&B cuts tossed in? All were done for the Modern group of labels. Modern and its subsidiaries were much more known for early West Coast blues, R&B, and Black vocal group sounds than they were for straight rock'n'roll. This fair but ... see all copies from $17.74! new only from $17.74!
10	Pity and a Shame (1962) more music like this by Mercy Dee Walton Whether you know him as Mercy Dee Walton, Mercy Dee or just plain Mercy, there was no doubt that he could write some incredible songs and spin some wonderful yarns. The playing wasn't bad either, and these early-'60s recordings are among his finest. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $11.24!
11 view cover	The Fifties: Juke Joint Blues (1987) more music like this by Various Artists This is a valuable look at some of the toughest Delta and West Coast blues sides issued by Modern Records in the 1950s. Bill Dahl, All Music Guide see all copies from $9.95!
12 view cover	Jiving Jamboree, Vol. 2 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Some would argue that this is a slapdash collection of jump blues, R&B, and early rock from the late '40s through the late '50s, not held together by any style or even label, save having a good jump or swing beat for dancing. They'd be right, but on the other hand it's refreshing to come across compilations like these that are obviously geared ... see all copies from $21.90! new only from $21.90!
13 view cover	One Room Country Shack (1952) more music like this by Mercy Dee Walton A solid 24-track collection of Walton's Specialty sides. With the exception of his three issued singles, most everything on here is previously unreleased, filling in some major holes in the artist's discography. Both of his big hits, "Lonesome Cabin Blues" and the title track, are aboard, along with some interesting duets with female vocalists ... see all copies from $11.45! new only from $11.45!
14	Dark Muddy Bottom Blues (197?) more music like this by Various Artists Most of the 12 tracks on this 1972 blues compilation were previously unissued. Artists include John Lee Hooker, Lightnin' Hopkins, Mercy Dee, Big Joe Williams, and others. All Music Guide, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.00! new only from $18.00!
