1	The Original Guitar Wizard (2005) more music like this by Lonnie Johnson Lonnie Johnson was best known for his tonally beautiful guitar playing, but he was also a fine singer and songwriter, and pretty adept on violin, piano, banjo, mandolin, harmonium, and bass as well. Equally at home in the blues or the jazz world (he worked with artists as raw as Texas Alexander and as polished as Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington ... see all copies from $16.90! new only from $23.94!
2	The Sonet Blues Story (2006) more music like this by J.D. Short Very little recorded material exists of Delta bluesman J.D. Short. He only recorded two sessions in the early '30s for Paramount and Vocalion, then quickly faded into obscurity, making this edition of The Sonet Blues Story such a welcome reissue. Thanks to music historian Samuel Charters, Short was recorded at his transplanted home base of St. ... see all copies from $8.15! new only from $10.44!
3	Rose Grew Round the Briar, Vol. 2 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists The folks at Yazoo have outdone themselves in two genres with this collection of love songs. This is a mixed blues and country release, except that it goes back to a point in the 1920s and 1930s when blues and country weren't always easy to distinguish from each other, so they fit together just fine. Solo bluesmen and white banjo pickers and ... see all copies from $13.14! new only from $15.65!
4	The Complete Bukka White (1994) more music like this by Bukka White Here it is all in one place, all 14 of Bukka White's legendary Vocalion recordings. Kicking off with his lone 1937 single of "Pinebluff, Arkansas" and "Shake "Em on Down," the set continues with the marathon 12-song session from 1940 which produced such classics as "Sleepy Man Blues," "Parchman Farm Blues," "Fixin' to Die Blues," and "Bukka's ... see all copies from $11.24! new only from $245.50!
5	Complete Works, Vol. 2 (1995) more music like this by Peetie The Devil's Son-In-Law Wheatstraw see all copies from $11.59! new only from $19.58!
6	Complete Works, Vol. 4 (1995) more music like this by Peetie The Devil's Son-In-Law Wheatstraw see all copies from $11.59! new only from $18.07!
7	Blues Piano Orgy (1972) more music like this by Various Artists Thanks in part to the luridly alluring title and the enthusiastically informative liner notes by Bob Koester, this solid collection was many a young musician's introduction to the men who pioneered blues piano in the first half of the 20th century. Roosevelt Sykes is the best represented artist here, and his leering vocals are hard to resist: ... see all copies from $11.52! new only from $13.53!
8	Alabama Blues: 1927-1930 (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Alabama Blues: 1927-1930 compiles the complete known recorded output of six obscure rural blues acts: George "Bullet" Williams, Clifford Gibson, Ollis Martin, Bertha Ross, Jaybird Coleman and Frank Palmes (which may actually be merely a pseudonym of Coleman's). As the liner notes point out, it's interesting to note that almost all of the artists ... see all copies from $7.16! new only from $11.29!
9	St. Louis Women, Vol. 2 (1934-41) (1995) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $7.84! new only from $8.26!
10	Dirty Mother for You (1998) more music like this by Roosevelt Sykes see all copies from $10.79! new only from $17.23!
11	The Essential Charley Jordan (2003) more music like this by Charley Jordan St. Louis guitarist Charley Jordan was an accomplished sideman, cutting tracks with Memphis Minnie, Roosevelt Sykes, Casey Bill Weldon, Peetie Wheatstraw, Big Joe Williams, and many others during his three-decade career, which began in the 1920s. He was also an engaging singer with a poignant sense of humor, and the best of his solo outings have a ... see all copies from $9.87! new only from $10.70!

13 view cover	Ann Arbor Blues & Jazz Festival, Vol. 3 (1996) more music like this by Roosevelt Sykes & Victoria Spivey Of the many dozens of blues and jazz artists who appeared on-stage at the 1973 Ann Arbor Blues & Jazz Festival, few were as old, experienced, or rambunctious as Roosevelt Sykes and Victoria Spivey. Most of the people in the audience were young Americans whose awareness of Afro-American music hardly reached deeper than what might have made it onto ... see all copies from $11.68! new only from $11.68!
14 view cover	Too Late, Too Late Blues, Vol. 7 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists Volume seven in this series of rarities (which includes alternate takes and 13 formerly unissued performances) has music that blues collectors will certainly consider valuable. There are a couple odd sermons from Deacon Mose, and then performances from Alice Pearson, Clifford Hayes' Louisville Stompers, Lonnie Johnson, and an entire session by ... see all copies from $11.59! new only from $14.47!

16 view cover	Hard Drivin' Blues (1975) more music like this by Roosevelt Sykes Roosevelt Sykes began making records in 1929, and kept churning out his own pungent brand of blues and boogie for many decades. When the music heard on this album was recorded in January 1962 and May 1963, Sykes was in the process of ripening into a sanguine creature even more interesting and provocative than his earlier selves had been.

18 view cover	Complete Recorded Works (1926-1928) (1994) more music like this by Luella Miller Even among the ranks of marginalized old-time blues singers, Luella Miller is singularly obscure and sadly underrated. Conventionally assessed as an unimaginative moaner who tended to sing the same redundant blues melody over and over again, this woman has been an easy target for persnickety music critics and deserves to be reevaluated. Trying to ... see all copies from $6.88! new only from $6.88!

21 view cover	1948-1949 (2007) more music like this by Lonnie Johnson New Orleans-born guitarist Alonzo "Lonnie" Johnson recorded at least 237 blues and jazz sides between the years 1925 and 1947. The only reissue label that has bothered to produce a meticulous overview of this body of works is Document; their Lonnie Johnson retrospective fills no less than ten compact discs. Classics, the other great ... see all copies from $11.49! new only from $17.23!

23 view cover	Charley Jordan Vol. 1, 1930-31 (1992) more music like this by Charley Jordan A fine St. Louis singer and guitarist, this was the first volume of songs Charley Jordan did in the early '30s. He could be very humorous or cuttingly poignant, and there are examples in both veins on this anthology. The sound quality ranges from good to awful.
