1	The Very Best of Peter, Paul & Mary [Warner/Rhino] (2005) more music like this by Peter, Paul & Mary It speaks well for the continued viability of their catalog (probably second only to Bob Dylan's among '60s folk artists) that this is only the sixth compilation ever done on Peter, Paul & Mary's music in four decades of musical activity -- and since one of the others was a Readers' Digest mail-order release and two of the others were done for ... see all copies from $16.65! new only from $16.65!
2	Bob Dylan (1962) more music like this by Bob Dylan Bob Dylan's first album is a lot like the debut albums by the Beatles and the Rolling Stones -- a sterling effort, outclassing most, if not all, of what came before it in the genre, but similarly eclipsed by the artist's own subsequent efforts. The difference was that not very many people heard Bob Dylan on its original release (originals on the ... see all copies from $11.06! new only from $11.06!
3	Peter, Paul & Mary (1962) more music like this by Peter, Paul & Mary The debut album by Peter, Paul & Mary is still one of the best albums to come out of the 1960s folk music revival, a beautifully harmonized collection of the best songs that the group knew, stirring in its sensibilities and its haunting melodies, crossing between folk, children's songs, and even gospel ("If I Had My Way"), and light-hearted just ... see all copies from $5.20! new only from $10.00!
4	The Times They Are A-Changin' (1964) more music like this by Bob Dylan If The Times They Are a-Changin' isn't a marked step forward from The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan, even if it is his first collection of all originals, it's nevertheless a fine collection all the same. It isn't as rich as Freewheelin', and Dylan has tempered his sense of humor considerably, choosing to concentrate on social protests in the style of ... see all copies from $6.93! new only from $11.00!
5	The Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem (1996) more music like this by The Clancy Brothers & Makem & Tommy Makem The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem's third album for their own Tradition Records label was recorded and released in 1961 after they had already made their celebrated appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show and signed a non-exclusive recording contract with major label Columbia Records. Clearly, they were feeling confident in their musical approach, ... see all copies from $7.62! new only from $7.62!
6	The First 10 Years (1970) more music like this by Joan Baez The First 10 Years is an excellent overview of Joan Baez's first decade of recording, balancing her work as an interpreter of both traditional and contemporary folk songs. There may be a few fan favorites missing, but all the essentials are here, making it an excellent introduction for the novice. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $6.24! new only from $14.22!
7	The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan (1963) more music like this by Bob Dylan It's hard to overestimate the importance of The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan, the record that firmly established Dylan as an unparalleled songwriter, one of considerable skill, imagination, and vision. At the time, folk had been quite popular on college campuses and bohemian circles, making headway onto the pop charts in diluted form, and while there ... see all copies from $3.49! new only from $10.00!
8	Another Side of Bob Dylan (1964) more music like this by Bob Dylan The other side of Bob Dylan referred to in the title is presumably his romantic, absurdist, and whimsical one -- anything that wasn't featured on the staunchly folky, protest-heavy Times They Are a-Changin', really. Because of this, Another Side of Bob Dylan is a more varied record and it's more successful, too, since it captures Dylan expanding ... see all copies from $6.24! new only from $15.00!
9	It's So Hard to Tell Who's Going to Love You the Best (1969) more music like this by Karen Dalton Some find Karen Dalton's voice difficult to listen to, and despite the Billie Holiday comparisons, it is rougher going than Lady Day. But Dalton's vocals aren't that hard to take, and they are expressive; like Buffy Sainte-Marie, it just does take some getting used to because of their unconventional timbre. Her debut album has a muted folk-rock ... see all copies from $15.98! new only from $15.98!
10	Joan Baez (1960) more music like this by Joan Baez At the time of its release, Joan Baez's debut album was something of a revelation. The folk music revival was beginning to gather steam, stoked on the popular side by artists such as the Kingston Trio and the Easy Riders, as well as up-and-coming ensembles such as the Highwaymen, and on the more intense and serious side by the Weavers. The female ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $16.24!
11 view cover	We Shall Overcome: The Complete Carnegie Hall Concert (1989) more music like this by Pete Seeger We Shall Overcome: The Complete Carnegie Hall Concert shows that Pete Seeger was at his apex as a performer and as an influential figure in the surging folk movement when John Hammond turned on the Columbia Records tape machine to capture this performance. Out flowed stories, traditional songs, covers of songs by new songwriters like Bob Dylan, ... see all copies from $3.16! new only from $17.76!
12 view cover	Childern's Music Collection (1998) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $5.70! new only from $5.70!
13 view cover	Greatest Hits (1962) more music like this by The Brothers Four A decent 12-song compilation of the group's singles, several of which, including "My Tani" and "Frogg," were never on their individual albums. The mix of tempos and sources encompasses everything from the two moody singles "Greenfields" and "The Green Leaves of Summer" to playful songs such as "Frogg," gospel material ("Nobody Knows"), and robust, ... see all copies from $2.60! new only from $5.33!
14 view cover	Capitol Collectors Series (1990) more music like this by The Kingston Trio The first serious compilation of the Kingston Trio's work is broader than any of the various "best of" albums that ever showed up on LP, although it also lacks some important tracks that were on those 12" discs ("Take Her Out of Pity" is especially missed). The Dave Guard era is especially well represented and at the time of this disc's release, ... see all copies from $9.90! new only from $11.13!
15 view cover	The Very Best of Judy Collins (2001) more music like this by Judy Collins Performers are known because of different qualities, like the ability to craft songs or sing with emotion. With folksingers like Judy Collins, there was never any question. In the '60s, her voice could always be counted on to amaze and astonish listeners. Collins also had the good taste to choose good songs by great writers like Dylan, Leonard ... see all copies from $11.11! new only from $11.11!
16 view cover	Classic Mountain Songs (2002) more music like this by Various Artists From the time of its inception in the middle of the 20th century, the Folkways label recorded plenty of traditional folk music from the Southern Appalachians. This well-chosen collection, oriented mostly though not totally toward tracks with vocals, has a couple of dozen examples from the Folkways catalog. Though it's not always totally clear when ... see all copies from $11.04! new only from $11.05!
17 view cover	The Bootleg Series, Vol. 6: Bob Dylan Live 1964 - Concert at Philharmonic Hall (2004) more music like this by Bob Dylan It does seem strange, very strange indeed, to be hearing an official release of this historic concert, which has been available as a bootleg for decades. The Halloween gig at Philharmonic Hall in New York was a special part of the tour for Another Side of Bob Dylan, arguably his greatest acoustic recording. What's more poignant, however, is how it ... see all copies from $19.56! new only from $19.56!
18 view cover	Baby the Rain Must Fall (1965) more music like this by Glenn Yarbrough see all copies from $5.00! new only from $20.00!
19 view cover	Presenting/In Person (2003) more music like this by The New Christy Minstrels The New Christy Minstrels took ensemble folk music to its logical conclusion. Many vocal groups utilized three or four participants, allowing for multiple lead singers and smooth harmony. The New Christy Minstrels consisted of 14 players, creating something akin to a choral group capable of handling complex arrangements of overlapping male/female ... see all copies from $16.10! new only from $16.10!
20 view cover	Folk Music of the World (1991) more music like this by Pete Seeger A CD compilation of two albums Pete Seeger recorded under the same title in the late '50s, Folk Music of the World sounds like Seeger's response to Theodore Bikel's big-selling series of albums devoted to the local folk music of various countries. There's little attempt to be "faithful" in any literal sense, as Seeger performs all of the songs in ... see all copies from $3.22! new only from $3.22!
21 view cover	In Person at Carnegie Hall (1964) more music like this by The Clancy Brothers With Tommy Makem Irish folk music isn't for everyone, but if you're the slightest bit interested in the genre, the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem are required listening. While both the Clancys and Makem have produced some fine solo albums, their best work remains their collaborative recordings. Particularly on live records like this one, their love for the music ... see all copies from $5.33! new only from $5.33!
22 view cover	Green Green (2003) more music like this by The New Christy Minstrels This Priceless compilation features a good assortment of the New Christy Minstrels' hits, including "We'll Sing in the Sunshine," "Kisses Sweeter Than Wine," "Blowin' in the Wind," and the title track. While other collections may be more thorough (like the exhaustive Definitive New Christy Minstrels), Green Green should serve the casual fan or ... see all copies from $4.28! new only from $5.72!
23 view cover	Northern Journey (1964) more music like this by Ian & Sylvia The duo continue to fill out their sound on another collection of mostly traditional material, with John Herald (guitar), Monte Dunn (mandolin and guitar), and Eric Weissberg and Russ Savakus (bass) backing Ian & Sylvia's own guitar and autoharp. The few originals stand out much more than the traditional updates on this LP; Tyson's "Four Rode By" ... see all copies from $11.75! new only from $11.75!
24 view cover	Maid of Constant Sorrow/Golden Apples of the Sun (2001) more music like this by Judy Collins This two-fer from Elektra features a pair of LPs by folksinger Judy Collins, Maid of Constant Sorrow and Golden Apples of the Sun, originally issued 1961 and 1962, respectively. Highlights among the 24 tracks include several traditional folk songs, such as "Wild Mountain Thyme," "Tell Me Who I'll Marry," "John Riley," and "Bonnie Ship the Diamond. ... see all copies from $12.88! new only from $12.88!
25 view cover	Singin' Our Mind/Reflecting (2003) more music like this by Chad Mitchell Although the Chad Mitchell Trio missed the big time when its record label refused to issue "Blowin' in the Wind" as a single (before Peter, Paul & Mary's version), the group persevered to record more good music in 1963 and 1964. With Singin' Our Mind, Mitchell, Mike Kobluk, and Joe Frazier hit a happy medium between enjoyable folk and politics. ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $17.09!
