1	Capitol Collectors Series (1956) more music like this by Louis Prima What Louis Prima accomplished musically in the company of Sam Butera and the Witnesses and vocalist Keely Smith is in hard evidence on this excellent 26-track compilation. All the classics are aboard with excellent liner notes from Scott Shea and crisp transfers of the original masters ("Angelina-Zooma Zooma," "That Old Black Magic," "I've Got You ... see all copies from $4.49! new only from $17.05!
2	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!
3	Northern Exposure (1992) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $2.95! new only from $8.66!
4	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 $6.31! new only from $8.66!
5	Long Time Coming (2007) more music like this by Nappy Brown Nappy Brown is a survivor, an R&B pioneer from the mid-'50s who had hit records for Savoy before drifting away into obscurity after 1962. He made a short-lived comeback in the '80s and then was off records again for many years before recording Long Time Coming in May of 2007. Nappy Brown is still in prime voice throughout this spirited set. In ... see all copies from $15.28! new only from $15.28!
6	Buster's Happy Hour (1994) more music like this by Buster Poindexter see all copies from $2.62! new only from $2.62!

Showing how it should be done in the compilation game, the label packs this four-disc set with prime material and a 56-page booklet that includes extensive notes, a detailed sessionography, and ... see all copies from $16.00! new only from $18.96!
8	Dressed Up to Get Messed Up (1984) more music like this by Roomful of Blues see all copies from $15.33! new only from $15.33!
9	Ultra-Lounge, Vol. 15: Wild Cool & Swingin' Too (1997) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $11.13! new only from $11.13!
10	Absolutely the Best (2000) more music like this by Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee Absolutely the Best: Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee collects 14 of the acclaimed country-blues duo's most memorable performances, including "I'm a Stranger Here," "Down by the Riverside," "Drinkin' in the Blues," and "Blowin' the Fuses." Terry and McGhee are joined by Lightnin' Hopkins and Big Joe Williams on "Blues for Gamblers," "Early Mornin' ... see all copies from $11.31! new only from $11.31!
11 view cover	Songs That Got Us Through WW2, Vol. 2 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists Songs That Got Us Through WW2, Vol. 2 collects more early-'40s pop favorites like Dinah Shore's "You'd Be So Nice to Come Home To," Roy Rogers' "San Fernando Valley," and Johnny Mercer's "On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe."

12 view cover	Violin, Sing the Blues for Me: African-American Fiddlers 1926-1949 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists As Marshall Wyatt's thorough liner notes explain in the accompanying 32-page booklet, the violin had a more prominent role in early blues than has often been supposed. Violins were far more apt to be played than guitars in the nineteenth century, and even when blues began to be recorded in the 1920s, violins were still often used in blues songs, ... see all copies from $19.35!
13 view cover	Greatest Hits (1996) more music like this by Louis Prima & Keely Smith see all copies from $5.26! new only from $5.26!
14 view cover	I Wish You Love (1957) more music like this by Keely Smith Although known primarily as one-time partner and wife to Louis Prima (vocals), Keely Smith (vocals) also had a measurable amount of success on her own. I Wish You Love was not only the title of her debut long-player, it quickly became one of her signature pieces as well. By the end of the 1950s, the team of Prima and Smith were among the hottest ... see all copies from $8.45! new only from $13.08!
15 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 $12.75! new only from $12.75!
16 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 $12.20!
17 view cover	Unforgettable [DVD] (2004) more music like this by Nat King Cole see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.37!
18 view cover	Buster Poindexter (1987) more music like this by Buster Poindexter You can't experience Buster Poindexter's campy nightclub act on a studio recording, but you can get a sense of the material by listening to the Caribbean dance strains of "Hot Hot Hot" and the Wynonie Harris hit "Good Morning Judge." There are also a couple of good songs by one David Johansen. William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.19!
19 view cover	The World of Nat King Cole (2005) more music like this by Nat King Cole Easily the longest of any Capitol single-disc compilation, 2005's The World of Nat King Cole also benefits from a fresh remastering of its material to make it the best introduction to the interpretive brilliance of Nat King Cole. Nearly all the hits that need to be here are indeed present: "Straighten Up and Fly Right," "Route 66," "Nature Boy," ... see all copies from $13.99! new only from $13.99!
20 view cover	The Original Soul Sister (2002) more music like this by Sister Rosetta Tharpe This four-disc box set from Proper assembles all four original volumes they issued separately with a detailed booklet of notes. Those titles -- This Train, Rock Me, Singing in My Soul, and Shout Sister Shout -- document Sister Rosetta Tharpe's Decca recordings from the late '30s through WWII. Assembled like this, they provide a nearly exhaustive ... see all copies from $23.63! new only from $23.63!
21 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 $7.70! new only from $11.23!
22 view cover	The Guitar & Banjo of Reverend Gary Davis (1964) more music like this by Reverend Gary Davis Because this is an all-instrumental recording, it's an offbeat entry into the catalog of a performer known both as an important guitarist and as a singer. Some might miss Davis' vocals on this 1964 recording, but on the other hand there are plenty of records with him singing around. This gives listeners a chance to hone in on his dexterous guitar ... see all copies from $8.57! new only from $10.29!
23 view cover	Sonny & Brownie (1973) more music like this by Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee In a way, this is the veteran duo's version of Fathers and Sons, a meeting of old black bluesmen with young white admirers that Muddy Waters and Otis Spann cut with Mike Bloomfield and Paul Butterfield. John Mayall and John Hammond, Jr. are among the "youngsters" on this powerful statement that includes a definitive version of Randy Newman's ... see all copies from $3.89!
24 view cover	The Very Best of Bill Doggett: Honky Tonk (2004) more music like this by Bill Doggett The Very Best of Bill Doggett Honky Tonk spotlights 25 R&B tracks released by the organist in the 1950s, including "Slow Walk," "Big Boy," and his biggest hit from February 1956, "Honky Tonk, Pt. 1" and "Honky Tonk, Pt. 2." Since these are the original versions released on King Records, this sampler is highly recommended for fans of uptempo organ ... see all copies from $13.71! new only from $13.71!
25 view cover	The Gospel of Blues (2003) more music like this by Sister Rosetta Tharpe With 18 Decca tracks from 1938-1948, this CD is not only a good survey of some of Tharpe's best work, but one of the best compilations of any sort to illustrate gospel's crossover into blues, R&B, and secular music in general. Admittedly that's not the busiest cross-fertilization of popular music, but it's not one that's given much attention. And ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
