1	Thriller (1982) more music like this by Michael Jackson add to wishlist Off the Wall was a massive success, spawning four Top Ten hits (two of them number ones), but nothing could have prepared Michael Jackson for Thriller. Nobody could have prepared anybody for the success of Thriller, since the magnitude of its success was simply unimaginable -- an album that sold 40 million copies in its initial chart run, with ... see all copies from $2.93! new only from $19.25!
2	Number Ones (2003) more music like this by Michael Jackson add to wishlist Since Michael Jackson botched his first hits collection by pairing it with a new album of material in a double-disc set, making it considerably less attractive for those legions of listeners who want just a single disc of hits, it's both inevitable and welcome that he attempted another compilation a few years later. This second collection, Number ... see all copies from $11.75! new only from $11.75!
3	Invincible (2001) more music like this by Michael Jackson add to wishlist see all copies from $6.99! new only from $9.76!
4	Off the Wall (1979) more music like this by Michael Jackson add to wishlist Michael Jackson had recorded solo prior to the release of Off the Wall in 1979, but this was his breakthrough, the album that established him as an artist of astonishing talent and a bright star in his own right. This was a visionary album, a record that found a way to break disco wide open into a new world where the beat was undeniable, but not ... see all copies from $12.95!
5	Thriller [Bonus Tracks] (2001) more music like this by Michael Jackson add to wishlist Off the Wall was a massive success, spawning four Top Ten hits (two of them number ones), but nothing could have prepared Michael Jackson for Thriller. Nobody could have prepared anybody for the success of Thriller, since the magnitude of its success was simply unimaginable -- an album that sold 40 million copies in its initial chart run, with ... see all copies from $11.59! new only from $11.59!
6	Dangerous [Special Edition] (2001) more music like this by Michael Jackson add to wishlist Despite the success of Bad, it was hard not to view it as a bit of a letdown, since it presented a cleaner, colder, calculated version of Thriller -- something that delivered what it should on the surface, but wound up offering less in the long run. So, it was time for a change-up, something even a superstar as huge as Michael Jackson realized, so ... see all copies from $8.99! new only from $9.76!
7	The Ultimate Collection (2004) more music like this by Michael Jackson add to wishlist A year -- nearly to the day -- after Epic released the single-disc Number Ones compilation in November 2003, the long-awaited Michael Jackson box set finally saw the light of day. Entitled The Ultimate Collection, the 57-track set spans five discs -- four CDs and one DVD containing a live show in Bucharest shot on the Dangerous tour -- and runs ... see all copies from $59.73! new only from $59.73!
8	HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I (1995) more music like this by Michael Jackson add to wishlist see all copies from $22.49! new only from $29.19!
9	Purple Rain (1984) more music like this by Prince & the Revolution add to wishlist Prince designed Purple Rain as the project that would make him a superstar, and, surprisingly, that is exactly what happened. Simultaneously more focused and ambitious than any of his previous records, Purple Rain finds Prince consolidating his funk and R&B roots while moving boldly into pop, rock, and heavy metal with nine superbly crafted songs. ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.76!
10	The Best of Sade [Epic] (1994) more music like this by Sade add to wishlist By the time this was released in 1994, something unexpected happened. Sade's early work became classic and the later additions boasted even better vocals and songs that nicely improved on the theme. The timeless sound and class always exhibited makes Sade Adu and her band a no-brainer for an appealing compilation. Like Al Green's Greatest Hits, ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $3.97!
11 view cover	All-Time Greatest Hits (1995) more music like this by Barry White add to wishlist It took quite a while for a definitive Barry White compilation to hit the market, but All-Time Greatest Hits -- part of Mercury's Funk Essentials series -- finally filled the bill in 1995. Boasting a full 20 tracks from White's heyday of 1973-1978, more than half of which made the R&B Top Ten, All-Time Greatest Hits is easily the most generous ... see all copies from $8.80! new only from $8.80!
12 view cover	Bad (1987) more music like this by Michael Jackson add to wishlist The downside to a success like Thriller is that it's nearly impossible to follow, but Michael Jackson approached Bad much the same way he approached Thriller -- take the basic formula of the predecessor, expand it slightly, and move it outward. This meant that he moved deeper into hard rock, deeper into schmaltzy adult contemporary, deeper into ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $12.13!
13 view cover	Devil Without a Cause (1998) more music like this by Kid Rock add to wishlist It's unlikely that even Kid Rock believed he had an album as good as Devil Without a Cause in him. Nobody else believed it, that's for sure. But he didn't just find the perfect extention of his Beastie and Diamond Dave infatuations here, he came up with the great hard rock album of the late '90s -- a fearlessly funny, bone-crunching record that ... see all copies from $2.29! new only from $11.24!
14 view cover	As I Am (2007) more music like this by Alicia Keys add to wishlist By now established as a major and talented force in the mainstream music world, Alicia Keys has perhaps earned the right to explore a little, to venture into new genres while still keeping a foot firmly planted in the R&B/neo-soul she grew out of. On her third full-length, As I Am, Keys takes a step closer toward the soul revival popularized by ... see all copies from $3.65! new only from $15.08!
15 view cover	The Eminem Show (2002) more music like this by Eminem add to wishlist It's all about the title. First time around, Eminem established his alter ego, Slim Shady -- the character who deliberately shocked and offended millions, turning Eminem into a star. Second time at bat, he turned out The Marshall Mathers LP, delving deeper into his past while revealing complexity as an artist and a personality that helped bring ... see all copies from $2.89! new only from $9.27!
16 view cover	Monkey Business (2005) more music like this by Black Eyed Peas add to wishlist Hip-hop artists with commercial aspirations need never appear pandering to their audience, since a tough, defiant stance -- aka keeping it real -- is exactly what will draw in most crossover listeners anyway. Nevertheless, the Black Eyed Peas quickly embraced the pop world after the surprising success of third album Elephunk, and only continued ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.19!
17 view cover	The Bodyguard (1992) more music like this by Original Soundtrack add to wishlist Few observers expected that Whitney Houston's first big-screen role in 1992's The Bodyguard would generate a phenomenon. Not that the film itself was a phenomenon -- it was a healthy success, due not only to Houston, but to her co-star Kevin Costner's drawing power -- but the soundtrack's success was astonishing. The Bodyguard followed Houston's ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.88!
18 view cover	Rock N Roll Jesus (2007) more music like this by Kid Rock add to wishlist When it comes right down to it, what Kid Rock attempts is kind of tricky: he's trying to create new classic rock, songs to compete with Skynyrd and Seger as the soundtrack of choice for jukeboxes and pickup trucks across the country. This is the sound of the white-trash, downriver rocker in him coming through, triumphing over the jive rapper who ... see all copies from $11.96! new only from $11.96!
19 view cover	I'm Not Dead (2006) more music like this by Pink add to wishlist Although it hardly deserved it, Try This -- Pink's 2003 sequel to her 2001 artistic and commercial breakthrough, M!ssundaztood -- turned out to be something of a flop, selling considerably less than its predecessor and generating no true hit singles. Perhaps this downturn in sales was due to the harder rock direction she pursued on Try This, ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
20 view cover	Hybrid Theory (2000) more music like this by Linkin Park add to wishlist Linkin Park originally called itself Hybrid Theory and has retained that phrase for the title of its debut album. The "hybrid" in question is one of rap and metal. The guitars and drums lock into standard thrash patterns, over which singer Chester Bennington and rapper Mike Shinoda alternate in furious expressions of rage and frustration. "One ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.24!
21 view cover	Licensed to Ill (1986) more music like this by Beastie Boys add to wishlist Perhaps Licensed to Ill was inevitable -- a white group blending rock and rap, giving them the first number one album in hip-hop history. But that reading of the album's history gives a short shrift to the Beastie Boys; producer Rick Rubin and his label, Def Jam; and this remarkable record, since mixing metal and hip-hop isn't necessarily an easy ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.75!
22 view cover	Dangerously in Love (2003) more music like this by Beyoncé add to wishlist Beyoncé Knowles was always presented as the star of Destiny's Child -- which probably shouldn't be a big surprise since her father managed the group. So it was a natural step for her to step into the diva spotlight with a solo album in 2003, particularly since it followed on the heels of her co-starring role in Mike Myers' 2002 comedy hit, Austin ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.54!
23 view cover	Definitive Collection (2002) more music like this by Stevie Wonder add to wishlist When you're putting together a 21-song collection of a major artist who's had more than 40 Top 40 hits, inevitably there's going to be a lot of good stuff left out. Stevie Wonder's long and varied career (not over when this anthology appeared) really needs more than one disc to even adequately summarize the highlights. But this single-disc comp ... see all copies from $7.05! new only from $9.51!
24 view cover	janet. (1993) more music like this by Janet Jackson add to wishlist After Control and Rhythm Nation 1814, Janet Jackson had quite a lot to live up to. Anyone who expected Jackson to top Rhythm Nation -- her crowning achievement and an incredibly tough act to follow -- was being unrealistic. But with janet., she delivered a respectable offering that, although not as strong as either Control or Nation, has many ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.55!
25 view cover	M!ssundaztood (2001) more music like this by P!nk add to wishlist Pink's debut album was a promising collection of dance-pop, easily lumped into the teen pop boon of 2000 since she was young and sang over savvy, skittering club beats. Those comparisons irked -- hell, angered -- Pink, and she was determined to prove she was real with her second album. So she called up her idol, Linda Perry of 4 Non Blondes fame, ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.00!
