1	Raising Sand (2007) more music like this by Robert Plant/Alison Krauss add to wishlist What seems to be an unlikely pairing in the duo of former -- and future apparently -- Led Zeppelin vocalist Robert Plant and bluegrass superstar Alison Krauss is actually one of the most effortless-sounding pairings in modern popular music. The bridge seems to be producer T-Bone Burnett and the band assembled for this outing: drummer Jay Bellerose ... see all copies from $14.98! new only from $14.98!
2	Come Away with Me (2002) more music like this by Norah Jones add to wishlist Norah Jones' debut on Blue Note is a mellow, acoustic pop affair with soul and country overtones, immaculately produced by the great Arif Mardin. (It's pretty much an open secret that the 22-year-old vocalist and pianist is the daughter of Ravi Shankar.) Jones is not quite a jazz singer, but she is joined by some highly regarded jazz talent: ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.98!
3	Into the Wild (2007) more music like this by Eddie Vedder add to wishlist Eddie Vedder's Into the Wild is a collection of nine original songs and two covers for Sean Penn's film of the same name, based on Jon Krakauer's novel. The novel and film are concerned with the short life of Christopher J. McCandless, an honor student and athlete who literally walked away from his life, donated his 24,000 dollars in savings to ... see all copies from $13.59! new only from $13.59!
4	Songbird (1998) more music like this by Eva Cassidy add to wishlist Though many recording artists meld and straddle a variety of genres, few if any defy categorization by excelling in so many disparate styles as the late Eva Cassidy. The diverse offerings from the evocative thrush from Washington, D.C. -- who died tragically of melanoma in 1996 at age 33 -- run the gamut from the radio-friendly pop cover of Sting ... see all copies from $3.79! new only from $12.00!
5	Not Too Late (2007) more music like this by Norah Jones add to wishlist Recoils from fame usually aren't as subdued as Norah Jones' third album, Not Too Late, but such understatement is customary for this gentlest of singer/songwriters. Not Too Late may not be as barbed or alienating as either In Utero or Kid A -- it's not an ornery intensification of her sound nor a chilly exploration of its furthest limits -- but ... see all copies from $2.96! new only from $8.55!
6	Till the Sun Turns Black (2006) more music like this by Ray LaMontagne add to wishlist If it weren't for his singing voice, so full of smoke and ether, one would be hard-pressed to believe that Till the Sun Turns Black was made by the same man who recorded Trouble just two years prior to it. Ray LaMontagne takes a brave leap from the rootsy singer/songwriter material of his stellar debut album and goes nearly 180 degrees. Once more ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.04!
7	Live at Blues Alley (1997) more music like this by Eva Cassidy add to wishlist The late Eva Cassidy gained a loyal following in the Washington, D.C., area through appearances in small clubs, utilizing her pitch-perfect singing voice to interpret a variety of tunes ranging from standards to modern-era pop songs. A notoriously shy performer, Eva Cassidy had a somewhat stiff stage presence, but she endeared herself to her ... see all copies from $13.82! new only from $13.82!
8	Once: Music from the Motion Picture (2007) more music like this by Original Soundtrack add to wishlist The starring roles in Once, the little movie that could by writer/director John Carney, stars the Frames' Glen Hansard and Czech singer and songwriter Markéta Irglová. The songs, representing those of the character Guy, and his collaborator Girl, are made up of simple and attractive acoustic pop, full of guitars, piano, a small drum kit and ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $9.99!
9	Coco (2007) more music like this by Colbie Caillat add to wishlist Sweetness rules on Colbie Caillat's debut, Coco, which is perhaps only appropriate for an album bearing that name, but the record doesn't play like a toasty mug of chocolate on a winter's day, it's a sugary lemonade on a breezy summer afternoon. It's light and comforting, a familiar blend of sunny pop and singer/songwriter tropes that flirt with ... see all copies from $12.47! new only from $12.47!
10	One Cell In the Sea (2007) more music like this by A Fine Frenzy add to wishlist After a relative dearth of female singer/songwriters (this was, of course, following the outpouring of them during the whole late-'90s Lilith Fair craze), slowly, slowly , women started making their way back into the limelight. Artists like Michelle Branch and KT Tunstall, even Avril Lavigne and Ashlee Simpson found success with their clean, ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $10.30!
11 view cover	Feels Like Home (2004) more music like this by Norah Jones add to wishlist It may be far too obvious to even mention that Norah Jones' follow-up to her 18-million-unit-selling, eight-Grammy-winning, genre-bending, super-smash album Come Away With Me has perhaps a bit too much to live up to. But that's probably the biggest conundrum for Jones: having to follow up the phenomenal success of an album that was never designed ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.50!
12 view cover	Some Mad Hope (2007) more music like this by Matt Nathanson add to wishlist Singer/songwriter Matt Nathanson has been playing the college circuit for quite a few years now, impressing coeds with his energetic live show (which often includes a collection of well-known covers) and heartfelt guitar playing. So those already enamored of Nathanson should have no reason for complaint on his second major-label release -- and ... see all copies from $8.99! new only from $14.68!
13 view cover	Undiscovered (2007) more music like this by James Morrison add to wishlist James Morrison's debut had already gone platinum in Britain before it was released in the U.S., and the young singer/songwriter has scored hit singles at home. With a pleasantly soulful voice that faintly recalls Stevie Wonder, he offers several slices of polite soul-pop that deftly manage to recall the heyday of soul while still managing to sound ... see all copies from $3.64! new only from $3.64!
14 view cover	O (2003) more music like this by Damien Rice add to wishlist Magnificently packaged in a CD-sized hardcover book filled with personal artwork, lyrics, and photos, Damien Rice's debut full-length, O, is nothing less than a work of genius, a perfect cross between Ryan Adams and David Gray and a true contender for one of the best albums of 2003. This Irish singer/songwriter works with impassioned folk songs ... see all copies from $4.43! new only from $12.99!
15 view cover	Imagine (2002) more music like this by Eva Cassidy add to wishlist A desperate clamoring from fans worldwide is no doubt the last thing the late singer could have imagined when she was at clubs and at home singing and doing rough recordings of the tunes that would someday be chosen for this magnificent hodgepodge. But many years after her death in obscurity in late 1996, she became a true phenomenon, with ... see all copies from $8.11! new only from $14.95!
16 view cover	A Collection of Hits (1990) more music like this by Kathy Mattea add to wishlist Kathy Mattea has risen to near the top of the Nashville ranks because of a haunting, soulful voice, well-produced recordings that have a simple, folkie directness, and, most especially, an amazing talent for picking the best songs being written for the country market, among them "Eighteen Wheels and a Dozen Roses," "Goin' Gone," and the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.99!
17 view cover	Supply and Demand (2006) more music like this by Amos Lee add to wishlist On the title track to his sophomore effort, Supply and Demand, singer/songwriter Amos Lee sings, "Baby I need a plan to help me understand, that life ain't only supply and demand." If the supply and demand Lee is referring to is money, success, and power -- and it clearly is -- then the stuff he truly values here is the currency of freedom, love, ... see all copies from $6.12! new only from $9.49!
18 view cover	Little Voice (2007) more music like this by Sara Bareilles add to wishlist For her first major outing Little Voice, Sara Bareilles puts forth an intimate, emotionally charged album that sounds remarkably polished for a fledgling self-taught songwriter/performer. In fact, her voice even stands up to professionally trained pop divas like Christina Aguilera. Her only potential downfall is that she fits so perfectly in the ... see all copies from $5.08! new only from $5.08!
19 view cover	Drastic Fantastic (2007) more music like this by KT Tunstall add to wishlist After the surprise international success of her 2005 debut, Eye to the Telescope, there were two ways that KT Tunstall could have gone: she could have succumbed to its sleepy, serious undercurrents, bringing herself closer to Dido, or she could have pursued the brighter, poppier inclinations of its singles "Black Horse & the Cherry Tree" and ... see all copies from $3.79! new only from $15.21!
20 view cover	Keep It Simple (2008) more music like this by Van Morrison add to wishlist Keep It Simple is a mantra for Van Morrison, as he stripped his music down to the bare basics years ago and then comfortably rode that groove, comprised in equal parts of blues, soul, jazz, and country. Van has been riding this groove so long that it's hard to pinpoint exactly when he settled into it, but looking back, things started to shift in ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $12.01!
21 view cover	Collection (2001) more music like this by Tracy Chapman add to wishlist The 2001 import Collection is the first compilation to round up Tracy Chapman's key tracks, and it succeeds on every level. All the hits (and almost-hits) are here, beginning with her two U.S. Top Tens -- the legendary "Fast Car" and the bluesy comeback hit "Give Me One Reason." Other charted singles on this album include the fiery, politically ... see all copies from $5.62! new only from $17.35!
22 view cover	Back to Then (2002) more music like this by Darius Rucker add to wishlist The rocky road Hootie & the Blowfish lead singer Darius Rucker took to the release of his first solo album, Back to Then, may have its origin in his band's declining fortunes after the spectacular success of its major-label debut, Cracked Rear View, in the mid-'90s. Follow-ups Fairweather Johnson and Musical Chairs traced a downward sales pattern, ... see all copies from $3.79! new only from $4.35!
23 view cover	Gavin DeGraw (2008) more music like this by Gavin DeGraw add to wishlist Five years separate Gavin DeGraw's 2003 debut, Chariot, and its eponymous follow-up. Gavin DeGraw exists in a world where he's ubiquitous, played constantly in malls, movie theaters, TV shows, and American Idol, where his "I Don't Want to Be" was a virtual standard. Gavin DeGraw pretty much offers more of the same as Chariot, polishing up the ... see all copies from $5.52! new only from $5.52!
24 view cover	Children Running Through (2007) more music like this by Patty Griffin add to wishlist Patty Griffin's raucous second album Flaming Red was a shocking departure from the critically noticed Living with Ghosts. It placed solid, searing rock & roll and big bad drumbeat up against the still developing authority of her voice. On Impossible Dream, she married country and her own brand of gospel in an intimate and musically seductive mix. ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.00!
25 view cover	Girls and Boys (2007) more music like this by Ingrid Michaelson add to wishlist Before her endearing single "The Way I Am" became the soundtrack for Old Navy commercials, Ingrid Michaelson was another anonymous, witty musician singing tales of love and loss to an audience that didn't yet exist. She funneled that uncalculated energy into Girls and Boys, her debut offering of clever, twisting piano pop. Released independently ... see all copies from $6.96! new only from $10.64!
