1	At Last! (1961) more music like this by Etta James After spending a few years in limbo after scoring her first R&B hits "Dance With Me, Henry" and "Good Rocking Daddy," Etta James returned to the spotlight in 1960 with her first Chess release, At Last. James made both the R&B and pop charts with the album's title cut, "All I Could Do Was Cry," and "Trust in Me." What makes At Last a great album is ... see all copies from $3.25! new only from $5.13!
2	Strong Persuader (1986) more music like this by Robert Cray The set that made Cray a pop star, despite its enduring blues base. Cray's smoldering stance on "Smoking Gun" and "Right Next Door" rendered him the first sex symbol to emerge from the blues field in decades, but it was his innovative expansion of the genre itself that makes this album a genuine 1980s classic. "Nothing but a Woman" boasts an ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.49!
3	Live at the Regal (1965) more music like this by B.B. King B.B. King is not only a timeless singer and guitarist, he's also a natural-born entertainer, and on Live at the Regal the listener is treated to an exhibition of all three of his talents. Over percolating horn hits and rolling shuffles, King treats an enthusiastic audience (at some points, they shriek after he delivers each line) to a collection ... see all copies from $6.62! new only from $6.62!
4	Love Songs [MCA] (2001) more music like this by Etta James Drawn almost entirely from her Argo/Chess recordings of the '60s (although there are some cuts from the early '70s), Love Songs is a fine selection of romantic music from one of the greatest blues singers of her generation. There are hits here, highlighted by "At Last," but mood overrules chart position, so these 14 songs wind up setting a ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $5.00!
5	We'll Never Turn Back (2007) more music like this by Mavis Staples When Mavis Staples issued Have a Little Faith in 2004 on the Alligator label, there was no doubt she was back. While the recording was subdued in places, it also showcased her ability to get so far down inside a song that it had to bubble up and be completely reinvented by her voice. It wasn't just a soul and contemporary gospel recording; it also ... see all copies from $8.50! new only from $8.50!
6	Glamoured (2003) more music like this by Cassandra Wilson Cassandra Wilson has garnered a deserving reputation for her soulful, visionary reads of songs by legendary composers old and new, from Robert Johnson to Van Morrison. On Glamoured, Wilson composed half the album, and her songs are as provocative and deserve the same weight of grace critically afforded her covers. She uses her trademark fluid, ... see all copies from $2.97! new only from $16.32!
7	His Band and the Street Choir (1970) more music like this by Van Morrison After the brilliant one-two punch of Astral Weeks and Moondance, His Band and the Street Choir brings Van Morrison back down to earth, both literally and figuratively. While neither as innovative nor as edgy as its predecessors, His Band and the Street Choir also lacks their overt mysticism; at heart, the album is simply Morrison's valentine to ... see all copies from $6.16! new only from $6.16!
8	The Complete Stax-Volt Singles 1959-1968 (1991) more music like this by Various Artists At nine discs and 244 tracks, The Complete Stax-Volt Singles: 1959-1968 is far too exhaustive for casual fans, but that's not who the set is designed for -- it's made for the collector. Featuring every A-side the label released during those nine years, as well as several B-sides, the set is a definitive portrait of gritty, deep Southern soul. Many ... see all copies from $84.86! new only from $84.86!
9	King of the Blues [Box] (1992) more music like this by B.B. King No way can a mere four discs cover every facet of the blues king's amazing recording career, but MCA makes a valiant stab at it. The first two discs, as expected, are immaculate: opening with his Bullet Records debut ("Miss Martha King"), the box continues with a handful of pivotal RPM/Kent masters before digging into his 1960s ABC-Paramount ... see all copies from $13.50! new only from $53.07!
10	Time Will Tell (2003) more music like this by Robert Cray Band Even diehard Robert Cray fans admit that over the course of the last decade, the singer/guitarist/songwriter has crafted albums that are practically interchangeable. Although Cray has created his own niche with a slick but powerful Memphis-styled R&B/soul/blues stew, his sound become repetitious; even though the songs' quality remained way above ... see all copies from $3.38! new only from $10.64!
11 view cover	In Session (1999) more music like this by Albert King & Stevie Ray Vaughan Recorded in December 1983, In Session captures an in-concert jam between Albert King and Stevie Ray Vaughan, the latter of whom had become the hot blues guitarist of the year thanks to his debut Texas Flood, as well as his work on David Bowie's hit Let's Dance. Vaughan may have been the new news, but King was not suffering, either. He had a world ... see all copies from $16.81! new only from $16.81!
12 view cover	The Anthology (2001) more music like this by Bobby "Blue" Bland As the quintessential chitlin' circuit R&B/blues star, Memphis-based singer Bobby "Blue" Bland's career has been relatively well-documented on CD. Still, until this 2001 double set, all 25 of his Top Ten R&B hits have not been available in one package. The Anthology is still not a complete career overview though, as it ends in 1982 before his ... see all copies from $19.52! new only from $19.52!
13 view cover	Definitive Collection (2007) more music like this by Robert Cray Robert Cray's musical strengths, which include an economic, elegant and melodic guitar approach and a soulful and unthreatening vocal style, have led many blues purists to question his authenticity in the genre, but to his credit, Cray has ignored all that and fashioned an approachable legacy that treats the blues as a vital ingredient in a kind ... see all copies from $12.44! new only from $12.44!
14 view cover	Dirty Deal (2007) more music like this by Coco Montoya At times on Dirty Deal, it's virtually a Little Feat reunion, with five members from the classic lineup helping out on "Three Sides to Every Story," giving it a wonderful, funky momentum. Coco Montoya himself is definitely a better-than-average guitarist and singer when it comes to the R&B/blues axis, although he's at his best on tracks like "How ... see all copies from $15.35! new only from $16.03!
15 view cover	King of the Blues Guitar (1969) more music like this by Albert King Atlantic's original vinyl edition of this was comprised of Albert's Stax singles -- a few from Born Under a Bad Sign, along with "Cold Feet," "I Love Lucy" (two of King's patented monologues), and the beautiful "You're Gonna Need Me." Great stuff. Even greater, though, is the CD reissue, which includes those singles (which didn't appear on any ... see all copies from $9.41! new only from $9.55!
16 view cover	Still Making History (2007) more music like this by Ana Popovic Born in Belgrade in what is now Serbia, Ana Popovic is making her name in contemporary American blues circles, but it would be a mistake to simply fixate on her unconventional path to this music, because Still Making History is clear evidence of her genuine feel for the blues. It's a fair criticism that modern blues can often tilt toward the slick ... see all copies from $6.86! new only from $16.39!
17 view cover	Martin Scorsese Presents the Blues: The Best of the Blues (2003) more music like this by Various Artists A massive media campaign comprising seven documentary films broadcast on public television and released as a DVD box set, plus accompanying soundtrack albums, a 13-part radio series, a companion book, 12 individual artist compilations, and a five-CD box set, The Blues, executive produced by filmmaker Martin Scorsese, threatened to be even more all ... see all copies from $15.72! new only from $15.72!
18 view cover	Thunderbird (2006) more music like this by Cassandra Wilson Cassandra Wilson's swinging for her own creative fences this time. The sultry, gentle, acoustic guitars on her last five recordings have been largely jettisoned for a more keyboard-and percussion -friendly approach -- which includes lots of programming and loops. To that end, she's enlisted flavor-of-the-year producer T-Bone Burnett and ... see all copies from $16.81! new only from $16.84!
19 view cover	Chronicle: The 20 Greatest Hits (1977) more music like this by Johnnie Taylor Johnnie Taylor's career covered enough ground (and enough different record labels) that trying to sum it up on a single disc would really take some doing, and Chronicle: The 20 Greatest Hits is not the CD designed to do that job. Despite the title, Chronicle is a collection focusing exclusively on Taylor's work for Stax, meaning his disco-funk ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $14.37!
20 view cover	The Heart of a Woman (1999) more music like this by Etta James Heart of a Woman is a great idea for an album. Etta James chose 11 love songs from her favorite female singers -- Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, Sarah Vaughn, and Carmen McRae -- augmenting the album with a new version of her signature song, "At Last." She has recorded several of these songs before (including Alice Cooper's "Only Women Bleed," ... see all copies from $4.28! new only from $7.58!
21 view cover	My Kind of Blues (1961) more music like this by B.B. King According to his biographer, Charles Sawyer, this is King's personal favorite among his recordings. Unlike most of his albums from this period (which are mostly collections of singles), this was recorded in one session and takes him out of his usual big-band setting, using only bass, drums, and piano for accompaniment. The result is a masterpiece: ... see all copies from $5.26! new only from $5.26!
22 view cover	Born Under a Bad Sign [Stax] (1967) more music like this by Albert King Albert King recorded a lot in the early '60s, including some classic sides, but they never quite hit the mark. They never gained a large audience, nor did they really capture the ferocity of his single-string leads. Then he signed with Stax in 1966 and recorded a number of sessions with the house band, Booker T. & the MG's, and everything just ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $9.77!
23 view cover	The Ultimate Collection (2005) more music like this by B.B. King In theory, the idea behind Geffen's 2005 compilation The Ultimate Collection seems sound: gather together 21 iconic tracks from the entirety of B.B. King's long career and present them on one handy disc. While there have been plenty of King comps throughout the years -- some great, some merely passable, but often all very good -- there has never ... see all copies from $15.58!
24 view cover	Night Train to Nashville: Music City Rhythm & Blues, 1945-1970 (2004) more music like this by Various Artists Issued to coincide with the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum's historic exhibit of the same name, this two-CD set is a treasure-trove of hits, misses, rarities, and smoking grooves. Certainly Nash Vegas is the capital of country music, but in its day it also boasted a wealth of stomping rhythm and blues music that flourished in the city for ... see all copies from $12.80! new only from $12.80!
25 view cover	Deuces Wild (1997) more music like this by B.B. King This is B.B.'s celebrity duet album, and a straightahead blues album this is not. But longtime fans who are aware of King's genre-stretching capabilities will find much to savor here. Kicking off with B.B. playing some beautiful fills and solo work behind Van Morrison on "If You Love Me," the superstars start lining up to jam with the King, with ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.80!
