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	Children's Favorites, Vol. 1 [Disney] (1977) more music like this by Disney Disney's collections are uneven in general. One doesn't stand out as best. Familiar characters and songs can make them successful for kids, but you can do better. Ages three to five. Bob Hinkle, All Music Guide see all copies from $6.39! new only from $6.39!
4	Ten Years Together: The Best of Peter, Paul & Mary (1970) more music like this by Peter, Paul & Mary For many years, this 13-song collection was the best introduction to Peter, Paul & Mary that one could find. Not only did it contain all of the trio's hits, but it was also, until 2005's Warner/Rhino compilation The Very Best of Peter, Paul & Mary, the closest thing to a cross-section of the group's sound that existed. From the acoustic folk sound ... see all copies from $8.83! new only from $11.16!
5	Children's Favorites, Vol. 3 (1980) more music like this by Larry Groce For ages three to five. Bob Hinkle, All Music Guide see all copies from $4.11! new only from $8.46!
6	Around the Campfire (1998) more music like this by Peter, Paul & Mary Including four new tracks, the two-disc set Around the Campfire is an excellent overview of Peter, Paul & Mary's career as it nears the four-decade mark. As indicated by the title, the focus of the collection is to shine a spotlight on songs that express ideals of community, tunes commonly sung in schools and churches as well as at more intimate ... see all copies from $7.89! new only from $14.95!
7	Dust Bowl Ballads [Buddha] (1964) more music like this by Woody Guthrie Sixty years after the recordings were first released, Woody Guthrie's odes to the Dust Bowl are presented in their third different configuration. RCA Victor Records, the only major label for which Guthrie ever recorded, issued two three-disc 78 rpm albums, Dust Bowl Ballads, Vol. 1 and Dust Bowl Ballads, Vol. 2, in July 1940, containing a total of ... see all copies from $11.06! new only from $11.06!
8	Hand Picked: 25 Years of Bluegrass on Rounder Records (1995) more music like this by Various Artists Over the course of two CDs, Hand Picked: 25 Years of Bluegrass runs through Rounder Records' back catalog, featuring selections from Ricky Skaggs, Béla Fleck, Alison Krauss, David Grier, Del McCoury, David Grisman, and others. The album gives a good portrait of Rounder's artists, as well as a good sense of bluegrass during the '70s, '80s, and ... see all copies from $11.87! new only from $11.87!
9	The Essential Pete Seeger [Sony] (2005) more music like this by Pete Seeger Pete Seeger is the sort of person who has become the stuff of legend for all the best reasons. As a musicologist, he's been a passionate archivist of folk songs of all sorts from around the world for most of his life, and thousands of people (perhaps millions) would not have heard songs such as "Goodnight Irene," "This Land Is Your Land" and ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.00!
10	In Concert (1964) more music like this by Peter, Paul & Mary This double album opens with a then-new Bob Dylan song, "The Times They Are A' Changin'," and closes with the best-known song ever written by Pete Seeger and Lee Hayes, "If I Had a Hammer." That seems to sum up Peter, Paul & Mary, but In Concert offers a lot more than that. The surprises include vignettes in blues and gospel, and, most notably, ... see all copies from $2.60! new only from $20.19!
11 view cover	Further Down the Old Plank Road: The Nashville Sessions (2003) more music like this by The Chieftains In 2002, the legendary and insanely prolific Irish ensemble the Chieftains released Down the Old Plank Road: The Nashville Sessions. Utilizing American icons like Ricky Skaggs, Del McCoury, and Lyle Lovett alongside the blossoming Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, their interpretations of traditional Irish and Appalachian staples yielded a ... see all copies from $6.90! new only from $11.06!
12 view cover	Spirituals [RCA] (1999) more music like this by Marian Anderson RCA's Spirituals, a 1999 release by the legendary contralto, is a reissue of a 1956 album, with the addition of nine earlier recordings. It is an excellent compilation of 30 spirituals which displays the rich, expressive, dignified voice of the great Marian Anderson. Usually accompanied only by her longtime pianist Franz Rupp, the album is a ... see all copies from $5.87! new only from $10.02!
13 view cover	In My Own Time (1971) more music like this by Karen Dalton In My Own Time is the second and last album the mercurial singer Karen Dalton ever cut. Following It's So Hard to Tell Who's Going to Love You the Best, producers Michael Lang and Harvey Brooks (Dalton's longtime friend and the bassist on both her records) did something decidedly different on In My Own Time (titled after the slow process of ... see all copies from $12.17! new only from $22.84!
14 view cover	The Lovers' Waltz (1997) more music like this by Jay Ungar & Molly Mason see all copies from $6.88! new only from $15.11!
15 view cover	Very Early Joan (1983) more music like this by Joan Baez This Vanguard release is a heartwarmingly intimate look at Joan Baez during her most influential period (1960-1963). The album's 22 tracks are all live, performed before audiences held in silent and rapt attention in packed concert halls. The singer's trademark politically tinged folk songs are charmingly blended with a few pop interpretations ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
16 view cover	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!
17 view cover	The Asch Recordings, Vol. 1-4 (1999) more music like this by Woody Guthrie Woody Guthrie's Asch Recordings, Vol. 1-4 is another shining example of Smithsonian/Folkways' ability to create a historically important document that is both fun and enriching. Combining four separate compilations (This Land Is Your Land: The Asch Recordings, Vol. 1, Muleskinner Blues: The Asch Recordings, Vol. 2, Hard Travelin': The Asch ... see all copies from $42.97! new only from $45.08!
18 view cover	Birds, Beasts, Bugs and Fishes (Little & Big) (1998) more music like this by Pete Seeger Previously available on two separate 1955 Folkways LPs (Birds, Beasts, Bugs and Little Fishes and Birds, Beasts, Bugs and Bigger Fishes), this CD combines both of these children's records onto one disc, complete lyrics included in the accompanying booklet. As the titles make plain, the songs were devoted to animals of all sorts; Birds, Beasts, ... see all copies from $11.24! new only from $15.28!
19 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!
20 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!
21 view cover	The Essential Kingston Trio (2006) more music like this by The Kingston Trio The Kingston Trio were the planet's most successful vocal group from 1958 until around 1962, and if they didn't exactly start the urban folk revival, they were instrumental in its sudden accessibility, as labels scrambled to sign up every acoustic player in sight to cash in on the Trio's marketability. This was a group that placed four albums ... see all copies from $22.14! new only from $22.14!
22 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!
23 view cover	Three Pickers (2003) more music like this by Earl Scruggs/Doc Watson/Ricky Skaggs Folk and bluegrass legends meet live on-stage on Rounder's bright and entertaining Three Pickers. The titular "pickers" are bluegrass banjo innovator Earl Scruggs, guitarist and folk purist Doc Watson, and relative newcomer (with only 45 years of musical experience under his belt) Ricky Skaggs on mandolin and guitar; they work most often as a trio ... see all copies from $8.95! new only from $12.25!
24 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!
25 view cover	Very Best of Harry Belafonte [RCA] (2001) more music like this by Harry Belafonte RCA's Very Best of Harry Belafonte fulfills the title in fine fashion, compiling 20 of his best-known hits onto a single CD (though it cheats slightly by adding a pair of unreleased tracks, "Bam Bam Bamba" and "Two Brothers"). Fans of his breakout Calypso LP from 1956 will find several tracks here -- the obvious "Banana Boat Song (Day-O)" plus ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $15.75!
