1	Are You Okay? (1990) more music like this by Was (Not Was) The "hit" is a remake of "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone," but the album is more memorable for typically oddball tunes like "I Blew Up the United States" and "Elvis' Rolls Royce," which features a droll vocal by Leonard Cohen. William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
2	Stay Awake: Interpretations of Vintage Disney Films (1989) more music like this by Various Artists Whether you regard him as one of the greatest storytellers in American history or a cold-hearted marketing genius who forced a set of prepackaged consumerist myths on several generations of unsuspecting youth, there's little argument that the films of Walt Disney have become an indelible part of our collective subconsciousness. Then again, for ... see all copies from $10.01! new only from $13.34!
3	The Wonder Years: Music From the Emmy Award-Winning Show & Its Era (1989) more music like this by Original Television Soundtrack The cuddly, sepia-warm tones of the hit Fox TV series spill over into this soundtrack, which is redolent with memories of childhood summers, walking in the park, barbecues out back, and all the other good stuff that the show waxed nostalgic about. Of the 13 tracks here, a full seven are covers. These include pop-gospel act Judson Spence's take on ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.50!
4	Sounds of Wood and Steel, Vol. 2 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Boasting even more star power than its predecessor, Sounds of Wood & Steel, Vol. 2 again celebrates Taylor guitars with an impressive lineup including Clint Black, Nanci Griffith, Rodney Crowell, and Richie Sambora; the consistently excellent fretwork aside, the collection is also notable for featuring the first new collaboration from Kenny ... see all copies from $4.83! new only from $5.28!
5	Was (Not Was) [Expanded] (2004) more music like this by Was (Not Was) At the beginning of the '80s, David and Don Was weren't gathering bedfellows as strange as Ozzy Osbourne and Mel Tormé -- as they would a few years later, seemingly inspired by the P-Funk All Stars as much as Battle of the Network Stars -- but the Oak Park, MI, natives were nonetheless generating collaborations as unlikely and successful as Brian ... see all copies from $21.90! new only from $21.90!
6	Pulsating Grooves, Vol. 3 (2000) more music like this by Various Artists EMI-Capitol Music Special Markets' Pulsating Grooves, Vol. 3 collects ten extended mixes of '80s hits (save for Right Said Fred's "I'm Too Sexy," which was on the charts in 1991). This means that the songs are familiar, but these versions are not, since they were not widely heard outside of clubs or stereos of hardcore fans. That makes it an ... see all copies from $13.59! new only from $13.59!
7	The Collection (2004) more music like this by Was (Not Was) The Collection, released by Spectrum in 2004, takes from 1988's What Up, Dog, 1990's Are You Okay, and 1992's Hello Dad... I'm in Jail, featuring "Shake Your Head (Let's Go to Bed)," the "Streetsahead Mix" of "Spy in the House of Love," "I Blew Up the United States," "Hello Dad... I'm in Jail," "Papa Was a Rolling Stone," and one of the versions ... see all copies from $5.93! new only from $5.93!
8	What Up, Dog? (1988) more music like this by Was (Not Was) The guests are fewer (though Frank Sinatra, Jr., sings one song), but the oddities go on, with "11 MPH," a review of the JFK assassination, and "Dad I'm in Jail," a proud rant by David Was. Also included: the hits "Spy in the House of Love" and "Walk the Dinosaur." William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide see all copies from $5.00!
9	'80s Hits Back (1996) more music like this by Various Artists '80s Hits Back is an enjoyable scattershot collection of 12 Top Ten hits from the '80s. The compilation doesn't follow any strict genre -- there are new wave hits like Oingo Boingo's "Weird Science," and Men Without Hats' "Safety Dance," Katrina & the Waves' "Walking on Sunshine," as well as late-'80s pop-soul like Was (Not Was)'s "Walk the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.66!
10	Rock of the 80's, Vol. 6 [CEMA] (1995) more music like this by Various Artists CEMA Special Markets' Rock of the '80s, Vol. 6 is a haphazard but quite enjoyable collection of New Wave, album rock and mainstream pop hits from the '80s. There aren't any surprises, but everything here -- including "Miss Me Blind," "Freeze-Frame," "Stray Cat Strut," "Spy in the House of Love," "Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone)," "Shattered Dreams ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.95!
11 view cover	Rock of the 80's, Vol. 2 [Priority] (1992) more music like this by Various Artists Rock of the 80's, Vol. 2 is a brief collection of synth pop and new wave classics. At only ten tracks it doesn't pretend to be a definitive statement of the decade, instead it is just a fairly random collection of artists. There are certainly some treasures here: Kim Carnes' "Bette Davis Eyes," Fun Boy Three's "Really Saying Something," Missing ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.08!
12 view cover	Rock On: 1989 (1996) more music like this by Various Artists The concluding volume in Madacy's year-by-year overview of the biggest hits of the '70s and '80s ends the series on a disappointing note: although this retrospective look at 1989 is heavy on blockbuster hits, with no less than four chart-toppers (Bad English's "When I See You Smile," Mike + the Mechanics' "The Living Years," Richard Marx's "Right ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.60!
13 view cover	Geffen Vintage 80s, Vol. 1 (1995) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $3.87! new only from $3.87!
14 view cover	Born to Laugh at Tornadoes (1983) more music like this by Was (Not Was) The Was brothers provide a strange bunch of songs with irresistible dance beats, plus an array of guest singers that is, well, unusual to say the least: Mitch Ryder, Doug Fieger (of The Knack), Ozzy Osbourne, and, on the ballad "Zaz Turned Blue," Mel Tormé. William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide see all copies from $8.00!
15 view cover	Beyond Cyberpunk (2001) more music like this by Wayne Kramer/Various Artists Beyond Cyberpunk was compiled and co-produced by punk rock stalwart Wayne Kramer, who wanted to promote a few alternate voices of the genre. Featuring both pioneers and voices that followed, Beyond Cyberpunk is an interesting and surprisingly literate collection that illustrates just how wide-ranging the spirit of punk rock is. The album kicks off ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $3.71!
16	Zetrospective, Vol. 2: Hope Springs Eternal (1990) more music like this by Various Artists Ze Records boasted an early-'80s roster that included the varied likes of Alan Vega, Kid Creole & the Coconuts (who was also the imprint's house producer), Was (Not Was), John Cale, the Waitresses, and Christina. The label's musical focus was often on the poppy and eclectic offshoots of New York punk, with more raw acts like Lydia Lunch, James ... see all copies from $2.99!
17 view cover	I Hate Nightclubs (2007) more music like this by I Was a Cub Scout see all copies from $11.85! new only from $11.85!
18 view cover	Songs of Elvis Costello: Bespoke Songs, Lost Dogs, Detours & Rendezvous (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Elvis Costello has always been one of the most prolific songwriters in pop, writing a considerable number of songs that have never appeared on his official albums. Some were released as B-sides, some sat in the vault -- and some were handed to other artists. The Songs of Elvis Costello: Bespoke Songs, Lost Dogs, Detours & Rendezvous compiles 20 of ... see all copies from $5.44!

21 view cover	Party On!: Dance Hits of the 80's (1994) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $49.88!
22 view cover	Forever's a Long Long Time (1997) more music like this by Orquestra Was see all copies from $1.99!

24	Pink Squares (2006) by I Was a Cub Scout see all copies from $22.91!
25 view cover	(The Woodwork) Squeaks [Expanded] (2004) more music like this by Was (Not Was) The original (The Woodwork) Squeaks, released on vinyl in 1984, compiled six tracks, most of which had appeared on 7" and 12" between 1980 and 1982. The 2004 reissue expands it to ten tracks, making for a completist-friendly catch-all of alternate versions, though some track-swapping that takes place between the original release and the expanded ... see all copies from $34.59! new only from $34.59!
