1	Horses (1975) more music like this by Patti Smith It isn't hard to make the case for Patti Smith as a punk rock progenitor based on her debut album, which anticipated the new wave by a year or so: the simple, crudely played rock & roll, featuring Lenny Kaye's rudimentary guitar work, the anarchic spirit of Smith's vocals, and the emotional and imaginative nature of her lyrics -- all prefigure the ... see all copies from $6.59! new only from $6.59!
2	Trampin' (2004) more music like this by Patti Smith Nearly 30 years and nine albums in, Patti Smith shows no signs of giving up, or giving in, despite the fact she expected to be quietly doing her work instead of making rock & roll albums and playing in front of audiences. But then 9/11, Afghanistan, war in Iraq. Smith lives the vocation of a poet in an old-world sense of that word. Once, bards ... see all copies from $3.98! new only from $11.00!
3	Dream of Life (1988) more music like this by Patti Smith The big difference between Patti Smith's four 1970s albums and this return to action after nine years lies in the choice of collaborator. Where Smith's main associate earlier had been Lenny Kaye, a deliberately simple guitarist, here her co-writer and co-producer (with Jimmy Iovine) was her husband, Fred "Sonic" Smith, formerly of the MC5, who ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.06!
4	A Very Special Christmas, Vol. 3 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists Like its two predecessors, A Very Special Christmas, Vol. 3 is a charity album featuring new recordings by superstars. Like Vol. 2, Vol. 3 is a little weaker than the first collection, but there are still a number of fun holiday songs on the record, including cuts by Sheryl Crow, Chris Cornell, Smashing Pumpkins, Tracy Chapman, Hootie & the ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $13.71!
5	Live on Letterman: Music from the Late Show (1997) more music like this by Various Artists David Letterman's The Late Show always had a long tradition of excellent musical performances -- indeed, it's one of the few places on American network television where live music thrives -- so the question that surrounds the 1997 release of Live on Letterman: Music from the Late Show isn't why, but why did it take so long? There have been enough ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.95!
6	Easter (1978) more music like this by Patti Smith Group Patti Smith came back from the year-and-a-half break caused by her fall from a stage in January 1977 without having resolved the art-versus-commerce argument that had marred her second album, Radio Ethiopia. In fact, that argument was in some ways the theme of her third. Easter, produced by Bruce Springsteen associate Jimmy Iovine, was Smith's ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $11.06!
7	Peace and Noise (1997) more music like this by Patti Smith After a prolonged retirement, Patti Smith returned to action in 1996 with Gone Again. It was recorded after she suffered the loss of both her brother and her husband, Fred "Sonic" Smith, two losses so great that it's not surprising she is still exploring that pain on Peace and Noise, which quickly followed Gone Again in 1997. Patti had been ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $3.99!
8	Gone Again (1996) more music like this by Patti Smith After years of silence, Patti Smith returned to music with a series of concerts in late 1995. It had been years since she had performed live -- for most of the '80s and '90s, she concentrated on domestic life. Following the death of her husband, Fred "Sonic" Smith, in early 1995, Smith began playing music in public again and those concerts ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $3.99!
9	Wave (1979) more music like this by Patti Smith Group The Patti Smith Group's most conventional album, Wave was given a bright pop/rock sound by producer Todd Rundgren. It was the last album Smith made before marrying and retiring from record-making for nine years, and it can be heard as a farewell to the music business, from "Frederick," the love song to her husband-to-be, Fred "Sonic" Smith, that ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $11.06!
10	Radio Ethiopia (1976) more music like this by Patti Smith Group After the success of Horses, Patti Smith had something to prove to reviewers and to the industry, and Radio Ethiopia aimed at both. Producer Jack Douglas gave "the Patti Smith Group," as it was now billed, a hard rock sound, notably on the side-opening "Ask the Angels" and "Pumping (My Heart)," songs that seemed aimed at album-oriented rock radio. ... see all copies from $9.75! new only from $11.06!
11 view cover	Bridge School Concerts, Vol. 1 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists Neil Young and his wife Pegi established the Bridge School -- an organization designed to help develop communication for children who have severe speech and physical disabilities -- in the mid-'80s and every year, they held a fund-raising acoustic concert for the foundation. These concerts became famous for the richness and diversity of artists, ... see all copies from $2.64! new only from $16.52!
12 view cover	Twelve (2007) more music like this by Patti Smith According to her brief liner notes, Patti Smith indulged the idea of a covers album, considering songs as far back as 1978 on the back pages of Jean Genet's Thief's Journal when she was still assembling her groundbreaking early catalog; it's evident she feels that covers have been part and parcel of her recording experience from the outset. Her ... see all copies from $6.90! new only from $16.59!
13 view cover	Land (1975-2002) (2002) more music like this by Patti Smith Patti Smith completed her contract with Arista Records after 27 years by assembling this compilation, which serves as both a best-of and rarities collection, one disc devoted to each. Disc one is drawn from Smith's eight studio albums (with the exception of a newly recorded cover of Prince's "When Doves Cry"). Having scored only one hit single, ... see all copies from $22.14! new only from $22.14!
14 view cover	No Alternative (1993) more music like this by Various Artists A mixture of B-sides, outtakes, live tracks, and newly recorded songs, No Alternative was the most successful benefit album of 1993, both commercially and artistically. Exceptional songs from Nirvana, Bob Mould, Urge Overkill, Smashing Pumpkins, American Music Club, and Pavement enhance fine outtakes from Buffalo Tom and Matthew Sweet, strengthen ... see all copies from $3.08! new only from $18.95!
15 view cover	Tibetan Freedom Concert (1997) more music like this by Various Artists The Tibetan Freedom Concert was the largest rock charity event of 1997, a two-day event held in June that featured many of the biggest names in rock and rap. Appropriately, it was filmed and recorded with the intention of being released later in the year as a charity record. The triple-disc set The Tibetan Freedom Concert is the extraordinary ... see all copies from $8.33!
16 view cover	Horses [30th Anniversary Legacy Edition] (2005) more music like this by Patti Smith Patti Smith's catalog has already been remastered. Horses here comes in its originally remastered incarnation with the same bonus track: a cover of the Who's "My Generation." This new, 30th Anniversary Legacy Edition, includes a bonus disc which is a live version of the album -- and the bonus track, recorded in on June 25 in London, England. While ... see all copies from $22.24! new only from $22.24!
17 view cover	Ain't Nuthin' But a She Thing (1995) more music like this by Various Artists Surprising fact: less than 5% of all philanthropic dollars annually in the U.S. are granted specifically to women and girls, and virtually all clinical trials are done on men. This realization, sparked by the breast cancer death of a well-respected executive at Sire Records, prompted colleagues to start The Shirley Divers Foundation for Women, the ... see all copies from $1.99!
18 view cover	Just Say Yesterday: Volume VI of Just Say Yes (1992) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $12.90!
19 view cover	The Songs of Bob Dylan, Vol. 2: May Your Song Always Be Sung (2001) more music like this by Various Artists The basic folk and blues base that Bob Dylan uses as a songwriter opens his songs to a wide variety of approaches, and covers of his songs are frequently fascinating. This collection of recordings bears witness, as artists like Patti Smith ("Wicked Messenger"), the Cowboy Junkies ("If You Gotta Go, Go Now"), and even Elvis Presley ("Tomorrow Is a ... see all copies from $15.28! new only from $15.28!
20 view cover	Gung Ho (2000) more music like this by Patti Smith Patti Smith's late-'90s comeback was devoted to reflective, intensely emotional music that explored her life in seclusion and the losses that forced her to reconnect with the larger world. They were acclaimed, ambitious, successful records, but they steered away from Smith's angry, activist muse, plus her penchant for visceral music. She ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.06!
21 view cover	Guitar Rock: Power Ballads (2001) more music like this by Various Artists The power ballad is a true art form that receives little respect, even from the populace (consumers) who adore its each and every note. Anyone brave enough to keep his copy of Guitar Rock: Power Ballads on full display has truly earned the right to play each one of its sugary cuts as loud as he damn well pleases -- and at all times of the day. One ... see all copies from $12.00!
22 view cover	Kerouac: Kicks Joy Darkness (1997) more music like this by Various Artists Fourteen of the 25 tracks on this 79½-minute disc are drawn from Jack Kerouac's poetry book Pomes All Sizes; the rest come from his novels (nothing from On the Road, though) and letters, with some unpublished work is also included. The readers range from Kerouac's contemporaries, William Burroughs, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, and Allen Ginsberg, and ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $10.70!
23 view cover	An Elpee's Worth of Productions (1992) more music like this by Various Artists Todd Rundgren may be best known for his eclectic work as a solo artist and as a member of Utopia, but he's also produced some of the most acclaimed, influential, and successful rock releases since the early '70s. As with his own music career, Rundgren has never been afraid to take on a wide variety of musical styles, and he applies the same rule ... see all copies from $5.45!
24 view cover	Stolen Roses: Songs of the Grateful Dead (2000) more music like this by Various Artists A fascinating listen born from an interesting idea, Stolen Roses culled existing live Grateful Dead covers from a diverse expanse of sources. The musical styles represented include everything from newgrass and a cappella to old-school punk, and even a high school marching band pays tribute to one of the Dead's more recognized songs. Bay area ... see all copies from $13.95!
25 view cover	Liss Ard, Vol. 1 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Coming together to benefit the preservation of the environment is the various-artists collection Liss Ard, Vol. 1. And like always, musicians do come out for a cause, and in this situation several modern rock artists lend a hand to an Irish charity. Artists included on this album are Patti Smith, David Gray, Nick Cave, the Frames, and more. ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $3.95!
