1	The Best of War and More (1991) more music like this by War It's not a perfect compilation by any means -- there's no "The World Is a Ghetto" and a bad remix of "Low Rider," for starters -- but it's an important release from this influential band. The original vinyl was definitive.. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.82! new only from $4.98!
2	The Very Best of War (2003) more music like this by War There really are more War best-of packages than the situation warrants, and while the double-CD The Very Best of War is a fine compilation if you don't already have one in your collection, it's questionable whether it was a necessary addition to the band's discography. For one thing, it doesn't differ all that much from the previous two-CD War ... see all copies from $16.99! new only from $21.44!
3	All Day Music (1971) more music like this by War As controlled as their self-titled debut was loose, War's sophomore effort, All Day Music, appearing a little over six months later in November 1971, was packed with subtly understated grooves. A hit with the fans, the LP peaked in the Top Ten, ultimately spending a massive 39 weeks on the charts. Side one is a gorgeous slab of mellow grooves and ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.43!
4	Eric Burdon Declares "War" (1970) more music like this by Eric Burdon & War The debut effort by Eric Burdon and War was an erratic effort that hinted at more potential. Three of the five tunes are meandering blues-jazz-psychedelic jams, two of which, "Tobacco Road" and "Blues for Memphis Slim," chug along for nearly 15 minutes. These showcase the then-unknown War's funky fusion and Burdon's still-impressive vocals. "Spill ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $10.71!
5	Goodnight, My Love (1991) more music like this by Jesse Belvin Jesse Belvin's Modern Record legacy, from 1955-57, 25 songs (including an alternate take of "Goodnight My Love") including an undubbed version of "Beware," a pair of previously unheard songs ("What Can I Do Without You," "I'll Make A Bet"), a compelling soulful cover of Sam Cooke's "You Send Me," and the previously overlooked single version of ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $22.95!
6	Deliver the Word (1973) more music like this by War Focusing in part on their softer side, War unleashed Deliver the Word in fall 1973. A smooth blend of the band's more progressive jazz-rock fusion, the LP shot to the top of the R&B charts, their second of four number one records in a row. It was a perfect tonic to the mediocre MOR music rampaging its way through the early part of the decade. The ... see all copies from $4.00! new only from $9.00!
7	Why Can't We Be Friends? (1975) more music like this by War Cut from the same cloth as the band's 1973 Deliver the Word LP, War's 1975 Why Can't We Be Friends? is a masterpiece in its scope and breadth. And, emerging as the last work the band would do for its longtime label, United Artists, it became a fitting swansong, powering up the charts and giving War its fourth and final number one hit. In recent ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.86!
8	The World Is a Ghetto (1972) more music like this by War War's third album as an act separate from Eric Burdon was also far and away their most popular, the group's only long-player to top the pop charts. The culmination of everything they'd been shooting for creatively on their two prior albums, it featured work in both succinct pop-accessible idioms ("The Cisco Kid," etc.) as well as challenging ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.76!
9	The Warriors (1979) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Shot on location in and around New York City's grimy nighttime subways and flaunting a virile cast of unknowns, The Warriors remains a '70s cult favorite, featuring violent gang warfare and a perfectly matched movie score. Barry de Vorzon's bone-chilling compositions envelop hard rock and sub-disco funk with a gritty apocalyptic urge. Conjuring ... see all copies from $5.64! new only from $8.66!
10	Funky Stuff: The Best of Funk Essentials (1993) more music like this by Various Artists For those looking to find a crash course in "the funk" -- a quick introduction to the fusion of R&B, soul, jazz, blues, good old rock & roll, and all-out outrageousness that creates the ultimate good groove -- you can't do much better than the Funk Essentials compilations. Funky Stuff: The Best of Funk Essentials is the perfect portrait. With its ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $5.84!
11 view cover	The Cisco Kid and Other Hits (2003) more music like this by War see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.37!
12 view cover	Platinum Jazz (1977) more music like this by War War became a superstar funk unit in the '70s by seamlessly fusing several elements: R&B vocals, Afro-Latin rhythms, rock theatrics, and even occasional jazz strains. This 12-track reissue presents instrumentals featured on War albums, songs that were generally longer than their hit singles and didn't get much attention in original issue. They show ... see all copies from $8.69! new only from $10.71!
13 view cover	War Live (1973) more music like this by War War Live -- also sometimes known simply as Live -- was recorded just as the group was achieving a peak of popularity and virtuosity, and released 16 months later, amid a string of highly successful studio LPs. It was underappreciated at the time, and only on CD has it found its proper audience. Recorded at one late November show at the High ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $17.24!
14 view cover	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Billy Stewart (2000) more music like this by Billy Stewart The omission of Stewart's heartfelt "How Nice It Is," one of his seven best singles, is the only sore spot. Compilers always overlook the tension-filled ballad on these short collections (11 songs). Stewart's six other gems -- "Strange Feeling," "I Do Love You," "Sitting in the Park," "Cross My Heart," "Summertime," and "Secret Love" -- sparkle ... see all copies from $5.15! new only from $5.15!
15 view cover	The Best of War and More, Vol. 2 (1996) more music like this by War Since Avenue botched War's The Best of War and More by neglecting to put on hit singles like "The World Is a Ghetto" and "Gypsy Man" -- although there was plenty of room for both songs, among others -- the company needed to assemble a second compilation to take care of all the leftover singles and songs that didn't make the first volume. But, they ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $10.76!
16 view cover	Street Corner Gold (1995) more music like this by Tierra Tierra's brand of East Los Angeles Latin soul is intoxicating and addictive. This street-corner concert includes a harmonic makeover of Junior Walker's "What Does It Take," a bouncy "I'm Your Puppet," and a heart-pumping rendition of the Friends of Distinction's "Going in Circles." Washington, D.C.'s Frankie Karl & the Dreams' "Don't Be Afraid, Do ... see all copies from $6.87! new only from $10.35!
17 view cover	Grooves & Messages: Greatest Hits of War (1999) more music like this by War Grooves & Messages is another compilation from Rhino that recycles War's greatest hits and, like the previous collections, it contains most of the hits, but not all of them. The difference is, it actually has all the Top 10 pop hits and the majority of the Top 10 R&B hits (only "LA Sunshine" is missing), and it's sequenced in chronological order - ... see all copies from $11.79! new only from $15.58!
18 view cover	20th Century Masters - Millennium Collection: The Best of el Chicano (2004) more music like this by El Chicano As part of Universal's 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection, the 12-track Best of El Chicano disc highlights the group's best-known material released in the early to mid-'70s. While the group has often been compared to Santana, they were a much tighter outfit, bypassing extended jams and sticking closely to their combined roots of soul ... see all copies from $5.01! new only from $8.66!
19 view cover	Natural High & Other Hits (2003) more music like this by Bloodstone "Just Like in the Movies" excepted, Natural High & Other Hits contains every charting Bloodstone single through 1976, including the Top Ten black singles "Natural High," "Outside Woman," and "My Little Lady." This is a rare exception where Rhino's budget-line Flashback division doesn't drastically shortchange an artist's discography, since it does ... see all copies from $2.18! new only from $4.15!
20 view cover	One More Time: The Chess Years (1990) more music like this by Billy Stewart Put on Billy Stewart's One More Time: The Chess Years. When you hear Bo Diddley's opening guitar on "Billy Blues," you know you're listening to something special. Billy Stewart ices the cake with a hiccupping, apologetic vocal. That lovely guitar melody was plagiarized and reappeared as "Love Is Strange," a big hit for Mickey & Sylvia. It doesn't ... see all copies from $6.95! new only from $6.95!
21 view cover	Greatest Hits (1994) more music like this by Gene Chandler Gene Chandler has enjoyed some widely spaced hits across several different styles and musical eras, which means that any truly representative compilation of his most popular work has got to be very thorough and very ambitious. This 20-song collection, offering just under an hour of material, isn't really either -- but it still has some listening ... see all copies from $9.10! new only from $10.25!
22 view cover	Greatest Hits (2000) more music like this by Tierra Tierra's Greatest Hits collects the Latin R&B group's most memorable songs, including the Top 20 hit "Together." "Gonna Find Her," "Barrio Suite," "Margarita," "Sonya," and a live version of "Vamanos Pa Monte" round out this best-of compilation, which is a good introduction to Tierra's unique Latino soul sound. Heather Phares, All Music Guide see all copies from $9.55! new only from $12.77!
23 view cover	Greatest Love Songs (2007) more music like this by Tierra see all copies from $11.76! new only from $15.11!
24 view cover	Art Laboe's Dedicated to You [Original Sound] (1991) more music like this by Various Artists A mellow mixture of multi-styled soul from different eras. The Skyliners, Don Julian and the Larks, The Penquins, the Shirelles, and Rosie & the Originals give you a taste of soul from the '50s and early '60s. "I Do Love You" by Billy Stewart, "Hypnotized" by Linda Jones, and James and Bobby Purify's "I'm Your Puppet" embraces the mid- and late- ... see all copies from $7.37! new only from $8.27!
25 view cover	The Best of Peaches & Herb: Love Is Strange (1996) more music like this by Peaches & Herb The brief, but successful tenure of the original Peaches (Francine Barker) & Herb are recalled in the 16 tracks culled from the duo's 1966-1968 Date Records recordings, including their Top Ten pop hit "Close Your Eyes" and their Top Ten R&B hits "For Your Love" and "When He Touches Me (Nothing Else Matters)." Given the group's love ballad ... see all copies from $5.12! new only from $5.27!
