1	The London Howlin' Wolf Sessions [Bonus Tracks] (1971) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf Too many rock superstars. Bill Dahl, All Music Guide see all copies from $4.60! new only from $8.11!
2	The Definitive Collection (2007) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf At six foot three and 270 pounds, Chester Burnett was a bear of a man, but his voice, rough and harsh as broken Delta glass, was what really gave him dimension. A powerful blues shouter out of the Charley Patton mold, Burnett (or Howlin' Wolf, as he came to be known) brought a feral fire to his vocals that made him sound like a gale force ... see all copies from $13.42! new only from $13.42!
3	Swagger (2007) more music like this by Ian Siegal "I don't walk, I swagger," boasts U.K. soul and blues singer/guitarist Ian Siegal on the opening title track of Swagger, the follow-up to his successful Meat & Potatoes debut. And for the rest of the disc he does just that. It's a confident, eclectic set that veers from acoustic folk to early-'60s R&B and Tom Waits-styled excursions through poetic ... see all copies from $13.91! new only from $17.00!
4	The Funkiest Man Alive: The Stax Funk Sessions 1967-1975 (2003) more music like this by Rufus Thomas Originally released in the UK in 2002 under the title The Funkiest Man, this compilation came out in the U.S. in 2003 with the slightly different title Funkiest Man Alive. The tracks, song sequence, and liner notes on each release were identical, though the cover art was different. It gathers 18 of Rufus Thomas' funk-oriented songs from 1967-1975, ... see all copies from $10.35! new only from $10.35!
5	Collection (2003) more music like this by Junior Parker After giving rockabilly fans something to talk about forever with his 1953 Sun Records single "Mystery Train" b/w "Love My Baby," Junior Parker moved on to Duke Records, his home for the next dozen or so years. This compilation is drawn from that period, and it contains some of Parker's best efforts, including fine reworkings of a pair of ... see all copies from $9.75! new only from $9.75!
6	The London Howlin' Wolf Sessions [Deluxe Edition] (2003) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf see all copies from $27.26! new only from $27.26!
7	No Escape from the Blues: The Electric Lady Sessions (2003) more music like this by James Blood Ulmer What a glorious mess this album is. No Escape From the Blues assembles the same team that issued the brilliant and soulful Memphis Blood for a second chapter, assembling in the legendary Electric Lady Studios in New York. In making their second stop on the legendary studio tour -- Memphis Blood was recorded at Sun -- Ulmer and company move through ... see all copies from $9.95! new only from $12.39!
8	Chess Blues Classics: 1957-1967 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists This second volume of a two-volume entry in MCA's Chess 50th Anniversary reissue series chronicles the second decade of blues classics produced by the landmark company. Although Chess' big four (Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Little Walter, and Sonny Boy Williamson) are all finely represented, influential sides by Elmore James ("Madison Blues"), Otis ... see all copies from $9.25! new only from $9.25!
9	Bill Emerson and the Sweet Dixie Band (2007) more music like this by Bill Emerson and the Sweet Dixie Band As a soloist and a member of the Country Gentlemen, banjoist Bill Emerson has left his mark on the contemporary bluegrass scene, pushing country music's most conservative genre in fresh directions. Bill Emerson and the Sweet Dixie Band's self-titled album, however, sticks to the bluegrass basics, closer to tradition than the Country Gentlemen's ... see all copies from $14.19! new only from $14.19!
10	Blues Masters, Vol. 5: Jump Blues Classics (1992) more music like this by Various Artists Jump blues, of course, was crucial to the birth of R&B and rock & roll. More important, the infectious swing, grit, and humor were great in themselves. Jump Blues Classics collects 18 tracks from the golden days of the genre in the late '40s and 1950s. Most of the pioneers of the style are here -- Joe Turner, Wynonie Harris, Roy Brown, Ruth Brown, ... see all copies from $14.15!
11 view cover	Here and Now (2001) more music like this by Ike Turner Back in the '80s, you would have been forgiven if you'd thought Tina Turner would prove to be the lasting half of one of music's notoriously volatile marriages. Back then, it seemed that Ike would be consigned to footnote status, forever a static signpost on a musical back road. Funny how things change. Now it's Tina's later music that sounds ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.74!
12 view cover	Blues Masters, Vol. 16: More Harmonica Classics (1998) more music like this by Various Artists With such a wealth of great harmonica blues out there, and with such an outstanding track record on Rhino's part in general when it comes to historical compilations, it's no surprise that their second anthology of harmonica blues is just as good as the first. There are fine cuts by many big guns here, including Little Walter, both Sonny Boy ... see all copies from $11.11! new only from $11.11!
13 view cover	Junior's Blues: The Duke Recordings, Vol. 1 (1992) more music like this by Little Junior Parker After the non-success of "Mystery Train" on the R&B charts, Parker jumped contract and signed with Don Robey's Houston-based Duke Records. With his smooth vocal approach, Parker clearly envisioned himself as the next Roy or Charles Brown. But from the evidence of these early sides, it's clear that Robey wanted to piggyback off the success of the ... see all copies from $62.49!
14 view cover	Anthology (2007) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf see all copies from $24.79! new only from $24.79!
15 view cover	Stax Profiles (2006) more music like this by Rufus Thomas If the truth be known, Rufus Thomas wasn't the greatest of singers, but maybe due to his vaudeville background (he started his performing career as a comedian for the Rabbit's Foot Minstrels in the '30s), he knew how to handle a crowd and keep everyone riveted and on their feet from the moment he hit the stage with his assortment of funky songs ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $10.35!
16 view cover	Big Lonesome Radio (2002) more music like this by Mark Lemhouse see all copies from $5.35! new only from $5.98!
17 view cover	The Collection (2000) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf Though there are countless others, this is a pretty neat little compilation of Howlin' Wolf's best moments from various points in his career. Containing 18 tracks for a budget price, many of the true classics are here, from "Evil" and "Smokestack Lightning" to "Spoonful" and "Back Door Man." There are also a coupe of surprises that don't usually ... see all copies from $9.96! new only from $9.96!
18 view cover	The Best of the Early Years (2007) more music like this by B.B. King There have been numerous compilations of the best of B.B. King's recordings for the Modern label in the 1950s and early '60s, and if you've already picked up one of them, there isn't an urgent reason to replace or upgrade it with this CD. If not, however, this certainly makes a good bid to be considered as the best single-disc anthology of this ... see all copies from $15.99! new only from $15.99!
19 view cover	Back on Track (1999) more music like this by Arthur Adams Tennessee-born, Los Angeles-based singer/guitarist Adams, who has been a sideman for the better part of four decades, is billed to sing like an angel (he is from that City) and play guitar like a man possessed. It's not hard to buy. His vocalizing has a sweet, soulful quality ala Robert Cray or at times Bobby Bland. And his electric six string ... see all copies from $2.35! new only from $15.30!
20 view cover	Walking the Dog (1964) more music like this by Rufus Thomas One of the artists who defined Memphis soul and put Stax Records on the map, Rufus Thomas is known for liking his R&B hard-edged, gritty and earthy. That approach served him impressively well on his debut album Walking the Dog. In contrast to the sleeker, more elaborate production style favored by the Northern soulsters of Motown, Thomas rejects ... see all copies from $18.00! new only from $18.00!
21 view cover	Can't Get Away from This Dog (1992) more music like this by Rufus Thomas Can't Get Away from This Dog gathers 20 previously unreleased Rufus Thomas recordings from the Stax vaults. Stylistically, fans won't find any surprises -- this is still hard-hitting, hard-driving Memphis soul -- but they'll find a couple of hidden treasures, such as versions of "Wang Dang Doodle," "Reconsider Baby" and "Barefootin'," as well as ... see all copies from $7.55! new only from $7.55!
22 view cover	Best of the Best [CD/Cassette Single] (2000) more music like this by Rufus Thomas see all copies from $7.13! new only from $7.13!
23 view cover	Sun Records Harmonica Classics (1990) more music like this by Various Artists Brilliant compilation of Blues sides cut at the Sun studios in the early 50s, featuring indispensable tracks by Walter Horton ("Easy" being one of the greatest harmonica instrumentals of all time), Joe Hill Louis and Doctor Ross. Cub Koda, All Music Guide see all copies from $9.40! new only from $18.07!
24 view cover	Sun Records: 25 Blues Classics (2001) more music like this by Various Artists While it inevitably shares certain material with Rhino's similarly themed 1990 Blue Flames: Sun Blues Collection, this 2001 edition on Varese presents a generous 25 tracks (compared with Rhino's relatively meager 18) and digs deeper into the Sun vaults for its material. Since only five tunes are duplicated from the earlier release, it actually ... see all copies from $15.98! new only from $15.98!
25 view cover	The Memphis Days: Definitive Edition, Vol. 2 (1990) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf The second volume in this series collects up all the known Memphis recordings that were either issued or originally offered to Chess. As such, it stands as a marvelous collection of Wolf's early 78s for that label. But what truly puts it over is the added bonus of a newly discovered acetate featuring several unissued versions of "How Many More ... see all copies from $16.33! new only from $16.33!
