1	Genius Loves Company (2004) more music like this by Ray Charles Genius Loves Company is the last studio album Ray Charles completed before his death in June 2004. Prior to this, the last studio album he released was Strong Love Affair in 1996, which was a stab at modern pop, filled with new songs and given an adult contemporary sheen. It was not one of his most distinctive efforts, even when judged against his ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $3.20!
2	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!
3	Anthology (1989) more music like this by Ray Charles Perhaps the best single CD collection of Ray Charles' '60s and '70s ABC-Paramount material. They've also been issued on two separate anthologies, but for someone who only wants the essential items, this disc has them all over its 20 tracks. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $3.90! new only from $14.11!
4	The Best of Ruth Brown [Rhino] (1996) more music like this by Ruth Brown For those who want a cheaper and more concise collection of her best Atlantic cuts than the two-CD Miss Rhythm, this superb 23-track CD has the cream of her '50s work, including no less than 19 Top Ten R&B singles. Charting her evolution from her jazzy debut, "So Long," through jump blues and early rock & roll, it also adds a bonus of two ... see all copies from $11.11! new only from $11.11!
5	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!
6	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!
7	The Genius of Ray Charles (1959) more music like this by Ray Charles Some players from Ray Charles' big band are joined by many ringers from the Count Basie and Duke Ellington bands for the first half of this program, featuring Charles belting out six songs arranged by Quincy Jones. "Let the Good Times Roll" and "Deed I Do" are highlights, and there are solos by tenorman David "Fathead" Newman, trumpeter Marcus ... see all copies from $8.57! new only from $8.57!
8	The Best of Louis Jordan [MCA] (1977) more music like this by Louis Jordan This is a best-of CD collection that actually lives up to its name. Virtually all of Louis Jordan's hits, which musically bridged the gap between small-group swing, R&B, and rock & roll, are on this single CD, including "Choo Choo Ch'Boogie," "Let the Good Times Roll," "Ain't Nobody Here But Us Chickens," "Saturday Night Fish Fry," "Caldonia," ... see all copies from $7.52! new only from $8.66!
9	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!
10	Ultimate Hits Collection (1999) more music like this by Ray Charles James Brown may be "the hardest working man in show business," Aretha Franklin may be the Queen of Soul, but as Ultimate Hits Collection proves, the most apt nickname in all of music may belong to Ray Charles: the Genius. Forget for a moment that fitting all of Charles' hits on a mere two CDs is not remotely possible. Almost any Ray Charles ... see all copies from $29.23! new only from $29.23!
11	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!
12 view cover	Memorial Album (1973) more music like this by Johnny Ace Johnny Ace inadvertently pioneered the rock & roll cliché of "live fast, die young, and leave a good-looking corpse." On Christmas day, 1954, Ace died at the age of 25 as a result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound he received while playing Russian Roulette backstage at a show in Houston, TX. Ace recorded a mere 21 songs in his lifetime, and not ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
13 view cover	More Music from Ray (2005) more music like this by Ray Charles Ever since Dirty Dancing in the late '80s, it has been an industry custom to follow a hit soundtrack with a sequel a few months after the original turned into a hit. By the mid-2000s, this practice was standard, and labels held back material from the original for the sequel, which would nevertheless pale in comparison to the original since, apart ... see all copies from $3.12! new only from $8.57!
14 view cover	Atlantic Blues: Piano (1986) more music like this by Various Artists Sampling treats from such blues hotbeds as Chicago, Kansas City, and New Orleans, this single disc from Atlantic's blues box spotlights the men at the ivories with 23 good-to-excellent sides. Giving due respect to the boogie-woogie heyday of the '30s and '40s, the collection includes four 1972 sides by Jimmy Yancey (cut just prior to his death) ... see all copies from $9.48! new only from $9.69!
15 view cover	The Best of Ray Charles: The Atlantic Years (1994) more music like this by Ray Charles Taking one of the most interesting bodies of work in the history of American music and trying to narrow it down to one 20-song compact disc would seem to be the sort of project that's doomed to failure, and there's little arguing that this collection of Ray Charles's classic Atlantic Records sides merely skims the surface of some of the most ... see all copies from $7.82! new only from $14.93!
16 view cover	The Very Best of Big Joe Turner (1951) more music like this by Big Joe Turner After Rhino Records began their series of reissues of classic blues and R&B material from the Atlantic Records vaults, they did a snappy edit, shuffle, and augmentation of Atlantic's fine Big Joe Turner's Greatest Hits, and the result was the equally superb The Very Best of Big Joe Turner. The Very Best of Big Joe Turner features 12 of the tunes ... see all copies from $5.49! new only from $11.23!
17 view cover	I Wanna Get Funky (1974) more music like this by Albert King Another very solid, early-'70s outing. Bill Dahl, All Music Guide see all copies from $7.42! new only from $10.29!
18 view cover	The Genius After Hours (1961) more music like this by Ray Charles Taken from the same three sessions as The Great Ray Charles but not duplicating any of the performances, this set casts Charles as a jazz-oriented pianist in an instrumental setting. Brother Charles has five numbers with a trio (three songs have Oscar Pettiford on bass) and jams on three other tunes ("Hornful Soul," "Ain't Misbehavin'," and "Joy ... see all copies from $15.72! new only from $15.72!
19 view cover	Years Gone By (1969) more music like this by Albert King King cranked out this solid, if typical, album for the Stax label after the success of Born Under a Bad Sign. With Booker T. drummer Al Jackson producing, the set includes such staples as "You Threw Your Love on Me Too Strong," "Wrapped up in Love Again," and a powerful version of Howlin' Wolf's "Killing Floor." For fans of King's guitar work, the ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
20 view cover	The Great Ray Charles (1957) more music like this by Ray Charles This set is rather unusual, for it is strictly instrumental, allowing Ray Charles a rare opportunity to be a jazz-oriented pianist. Two selections are with a trio (bassist Oscar Pettiford joins Charles on "Black Coffee"), while the other six are with a septet taken from his big band of the period. Key among the sidemen are David Newman (soloing on ... see all copies from $6.62! new only from $6.62!
21 view cover	Thursday Night in San Francisco: Recorded Live at the Fillmore Auditorium (1990) more music like this by Albert King Recorded live in San Francisco in 1968, here's Albert King pretty much at the top of his game, blasting out tons of great guitar and singing his heart to an appreciative crowd of young hippies. With a tight four-piece road band backing him, King fires up his Flying V and slams down hard on material like Freddie King's "San-Ho-Zay," "you Upset Me ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $10.71!
22 view cover	Driftin' Blues: The Best of Charles Brown (1945) more music like this by Charles Brown Originally put out by EMI in 1992, this roundup of Charles Brown's 1945-1956 Aladdin sides is essential listening for all R&B fans -- and that goes for jazz and pop lovers as well. Sticking mostly to an exquisite after-hours mode, Brown delivers one smooth blues gem after another until this 20-track disc comes to a close. Backed for the most part ... see all copies from $6.28! new only from $11.97!
23 view cover	The Trumpet Kings Meet Joe Turner (1974) more music like this by Big Joe Turner This album features a most unusual session. Veteran blues singer Joe Turner and his usual rhythm section of the mid-'70s (which includes guitarist Pee Wee Crayton) are joined by four notable trumpeters: Dizzy Gillespie, Roy Eldridge, Harry "Sweets" Edison, and Clark Terry. On three blues (including the 15-minute "I Know You Love Me Baby") and ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $11.28!
24 view cover	The Essential Jimmy Rushing (1974) more music like this by Jimmy Rushing This single CD reissues an earlier Jimmy Rushing two-LP set, leaving off two cuts due to lack of space. Jimmy Rushing, who may very well have been the definitive male big band singer, sticks mostly to blues and Kansas City swing on the release and is backed by a variety of top swing all-stars, including most notably tenor saxophonist Buddy Tate, ... see all copies from $14.80! new only from $14.80!
25 view cover	Live Wire/Blues Power (1968) more music like this by Albert King Live Wire/Blues Power is one of Albert King's definitive albums. Recorded live at the Fillmore Auditorium in 1968, the guitarist is at the top of his form throughout the record -- his solos are intense and piercing. The band is fine, but ultimately it's King's show -- he makes Herbie Hancock's "Watermelon Man" dirty and funky and wrings out all ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
