2	Friends of Mine (1998) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott Ramblin' Jack Elliott's first album for Hightone, Friends of Mine, is a thoroughly enjoyable collection of duets (and one trio) produced by Roy Rogers.

3	Hard Travelin' (1989) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott Ramblin' Jack Elliott's early-'60s Prestige LPs Sings the Songs of Woody Guthrie and Ramblin' Jack Elliott are combined onto a single 77-minute disc on this CD reissue, with one song ("I Love Her So/I Got a Woman") deleted for space reasons.

4	The Ballad of Ramblin' Jack (2000) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott This soundtrack to the 2000 documentary film about Elliott (directed by his daughter) also serves as a pretty good career retrospective. The 20 cuts are taken from an assortment of live, studio, television, radio, and film performances from 1953 to 1998. The chief flaw of Elliott's output is that he was not an innovator. He wrote little of his own ... see all copies from $14.42! new only from $14.42!

6	I Stand Alone (2006) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott If you're an old fan of Ramblin' Jack Elliott, look for few surprises now that he's jumped to the label that hosts Nick Cave, Joe Henry, and Tom Waits. This is Jack Elliott the fingerpickin' folkie, friend to Cisco Houston and Woody Guthrie, and influence of Bob Dylan. These 14 songs reflect what Jack has done since leaving the rodeo more than 50 ... see all copies from $15.02! new only from $15.02!
7	The Essential Ramblin' Jack Elliott (1970) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott Elliott was the complete folksinger of the 60s, singing and yodeling traditional material derived from folk, country, and blues sources and (especially) carrying on the tradition of Woody Guthrie. This two-pocket set, some of which is taken from a 1965 concert, provides a representative sampling of his repertoire and style. William Ruhlmann, All ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
8	South Coast (1995) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott Ramblin' Jack Elliot, this 1995 album (his first after more than a two-decade hiatus from the studio) goes to show, only gets better with age. The 70-something-year-old voice resonates here with the long miles and experience it once just impersonated, the distinctive guitar playing likewise aged into a rich and mesmerizing style. Elliot also ... see all copies from $6.86! new only from $15.81!

10	Folk Classics (1989) more music like this by Various Artists Though one thinks of Elektra and Vanguard as the main record labels of the folk revival, the giant Columbia Records also made some inroads into the field, signing up not only Bob Dylan but also a wide range of folkies, from Pete Seeger to The New Christy Minstrels. This 15-track compilation delves deeper into the Columbia vault for tracks by ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.06!
11 view cover	Vanguard Visionaries (2007) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott One of the few folksingers as loved by Pete Seeger as by Bob Dylan, Ramblin' Jack Elliott nailed the persona of the itinerant folksinger, with his laconic yet flexible delivery and leathery image. He reflected his old-timey vocal influences without ever sounding overly affected, and he could sound rustic ("John Hardy") or steel-belted ("Black ... see all copies from $9.87! new only from $9.87!
12 view cover	The Lost Topic Tapes: Cowes Harbour 1957 (2004) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott Born in Brooklyn, Jack Elliott reinvented himself as a cowboy folksinger in the Woody Guthrie mold (but without Guthrie's particular talent for recasting folk melodies into new compositions), and was adept at catching the nuances of rural American singing styles. He did indeed like to ramble, and he landed in London in 1955 just as the skiffle ... see all copies from $10.76! new only from $10.76!
13 view cover	Best of the Vanguard Years (2000) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott It might be tempting to look at Ramblin' Jack Elliott as a folksinger from a bygone era except for a couple of things. First, he's still with us around the turn of the millennium, and still recording vital material such as 1999's The Long Ride; next, even his older material never strikes the listener as out-of-date. In fact, his performances on ... see all copies from $14.42! new only from $14.42!

18 view cover	Bull Durham Sacks and Railroad Tracks (1970) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott The second Reprise album by Ramblin' Jack gets a new life, issued on CD for the first time.

The album shines when it gets away from talking and into the music, combining Elliott's ... see all copies from $13.08! new only from $13.08!
