1	Purple Rain (1984) more music like this by Prince & the Revolution 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 $10.50!
2	Blood Sugar Sex Magik (1991) more music like this by Red Hot Chili Peppers The Red Hot Chili Peppers' best album, Blood Sugar Sex Magik benefits immensely from Rick Rubin's production -- John Frusciante's guitar is less overpoweringly noisy, leaving room for differing textures and clearer lines, while the band overall is more focused and less indulgent, even if some of the grooves drag on too long. Lyrically, Anthony ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $16.65!
3	The Sweet Escape (2006) more music like this by Gwen Stefani Awkward and alluring in equal measures, Gwen Stefani's 2004 solo debut, Love.Angel.Music.Baby., did its job: it made Gwen a bigger star on her own than she was as the lead singer of No Doubt. With that established and her long-desired wish for a baby finally fulfilled, there was no rush for Gwen to get back to her regular gig, so she made another ... see all copies from $2.81! new only from $5.06!
4	Some Girls (1978) more music like this by The Rolling Stones During the mid-'70s, the Rolling Stones remained massively popular, but their records suffered from Jagger's fascination with celebrity and Keith's worsening drug habit. By 1978, both punk and disco had swept the group off the front pages, and Some Girls was their fiery response to the younger generation. Opening with the disco-blues thump of ... see all copies from $2.93! new only from $15.57!
5	Jump Back: The Best of the Rolling Stones 1971-1993 (1993) more music like this by The Rolling Stones Released in 1994 to coincide with the Stones' catalog moving to Virgin Records, as well as the accompanying remastering of their Rolling Stone Records catalog (1971's Sticky Fingers through 1989's Steel Wheels -- actually 1991's Flashpoint, which is the last Rolling Stones Records release, but isn't featured here), Jump Back supplants Rewind as ... see all copies from $16.24! new only from $16.64!
6	Combat Rock (1982) more music like this by The Clash On the surface of things, Combat Rock appears to be a retreat from the sprawling stylistic explorations of London Calling and Sandinista! The pounding arena rock of "Should I Stay or Should I Go" makes the Clash sound like an arena rock band, and much of the album boasts a muscular, heavy sound courtesy of producer Glyn Johns. But things aren't ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $4.72!
7	Forty Licks (2002) more music like this by The Rolling Stones Forty Licks, like Elvis' 30 #1 Hits, is a career-spanning compilation that wouldn't have happened without the unprecedented, blockbuster success of Beatles 1. Where Elvis' set is hurt by the simple fact that there are too many damn Elvis comps on the market, the Rolling Stones benefit greatly from the fact that there has not been any set that ... see all copies from $29.35! new only from $29.35!
8	Achtung Baby (1991) more music like this by U2 Reinventions rarely come as thorough and effective as Achtung Baby, an album that completely changed U2's sound and style. The crashing, unrecognizable distorted guitars that open "Zoo Station" are a clear signal that U2 have traded their Americana pretensions for postmodern, contemporary European music. Drawing equally from Bowie's electronic, ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $12.44!
9	The Platinum Collection, Vol. 1-3 (2001) more music like this by Queen Queen's The Platinum Collection collection places the group's three previously released Greatest Hits albums into one box set -- colored platinum, of course. Although this doesn't serve much use for fans that already have all three collections -- or all of the albums, for that matter -- it is useful for listeners that want to get all three discs ... see all copies from $24.33! new only from $24.33!
10	The Best of Talking Heads (2004) more music like this by Talking Heads Rhino's -- or, more accurately, Sire/Warner/Rhino's -- Best of Talking Heads follows 2003's box set Once in a Lifetime by a year, and it features the same remastering from that set. It also shares part of a title with the 1992 U.K. compilation The Best of Talking Heads: Once in a Lifetime, which was released the same year as the American double ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $16.65!
11 view cover	Tattoo You (1981) more music like this by The Rolling Stones Like Emotional Rescue before it, Tattoo You was comprised primarily of leftovers, but unlike its predecessor, it never sounds that way. Instead, Tattoo You captures the Stones at their best as a professional stadium-rock band. Divided into a rock & roll side and a ballad side, the album delivers its share of thrills on the tight, dynamic first ... see all copies from $3.06! new only from $15.86!
12 view cover	Faith (1987) more music like this by George Michael A superbly crafted mainstream pop/rock masterpiece, Faith made George Michael an international solo star, selling over ten million copies in the U.S. alone as of 2000. Perhaps even more impressively, it also made him the first white solo artist to hit number one on the R&B album charts. Michael had already proven the soulful power of his pipes by ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.06!
13 view cover	Greatest Hits (2001) more music like this by The Cure The Cure were never afraid of artistically defining themselves. They had their own sound, an eerie glamour surrounding a dark whimsicality, yet fans flocked to them throughout the '80s and '90s. Commercial or cult favorites, they're impressive as being one of the '80s' seminal bands who culled more than 30 critical singles. Compilations like 1986 ... see all copies from $16.65! new only from $16.65!
14 view cover	Let's Dance (1983) more music like this by David Bowie After summing up his maverick tendencies on Scary Monsters, David Bowie aimed for the mainstream with Let's Dance. Hiring Chic guitarist Nile Rodgers as a co-producer, Bowie created a stylish, synthesized post-disco dance music that was equally informed by classic soul and the emerging new romantic subgenre of new wave, which was ironically ... see all copies from $2.93! new only from $14.52!
15 view cover	Greatest Hits (1992) more music like this by ZZ Top This isn't a perfect roundup of ZZ Top's superstar years of the '80s, but it comes pretty close. It dips back into the '70s for "Pearl Necklace" and "La Grange," with a couple of selections from the post-peak '90s, but this does offer the MTV-era basics: "Gimme All Your Lovin'," "Sharp Dressed Man," "Rough Boy," "Tush," "My Head's in Mississippi," ... see all copies from $4.24! new only from $11.24!
16 view cover	1999 (1983) more music like this by Prince With Dirty Mind, Prince had established a wild fusion of funk, rock, new wave, and soul that signaled he was an original, maverick talent, but it failed to win him a large audience. After delivering the sound-alike album, Controversy, Prince revamped his sound and delivered the double album 1999. Where his earlier albums had been a fusion of ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.11!
17 view cover	Little Creatures (1985) more music like this by Talking Heads Talking Heads' most immediately accessible album, Little Creatures eschewed the pattern of recent Heads albums, in which instrumental tracks had been worked up from riffs and grooves, after which David Byrne improvised melodies and lyrics. The songs on Little Creatures, most of which were credited to Byrne alone (with the band credited only with ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.00!
18 view cover	U218 Singles (2006) more music like this by U2 U2's first two greatest-hits albums neatly divided themselves by decade, with the first covering the '80s and the second summing up the '90s. Their third hits comp, 2006's U218 Singles, is at once more ambitious and more concise, offering an overview of their first 26 years on a single disc comprised of 18 tracks -- and since two of those are new ... see all copies from $5.51! new only from $14.52!
19 view cover	Greatest Hits [Warner Bros] (2003) more music like this by Red Hot Chili Peppers The Red Hot Chili Peppers' Greatest Hits is a compelling listen, culling tracks from the band's 1989 breakthrough, Mother's Milk, to its melodic 2002 release, By the Way. In some ways, one could view this as the best of the John Frusciante years, charting most of the band's work with the talented guitarist after the death of original member Hillel ... see all copies from $11.43! new only from $11.43!
20 view cover	Eliminator (1983) more music like this by ZZ Top ZZ Top had reached the top of the charts before, but that didn't make their sudden popularity in 1983 any more predictable. It wasn't that they were just popular -- they were hip , for God's sake, since they were one of the only AOR favorites to figure out to harness the stylish, synthesized grooves of new wave, and then figure out how to sell it ... see all copies from $4.14! new only from $16.65!
21 view cover	Remain in Light (1980) more music like this by Talking Heads The musical transition that seemed to have just begun with Fear of Music came to fruition on Talking Heads' fourth album, Remain in Light. "I Zimbra" and "Life During Wartime" from the earlier album served as the blueprints for a disc on which the group explored African polyrhythms on a series of driving groove tracks, over which David Byrne ... see all copies from $6.25! new only from $7.55!
22 view cover	Freeze Frame (1981) more music like this by The J. Geils Band Tempering their bar band R&B with a touch of new wave pop production, the J. Geils Band finally broke through into the big leagues with Freeze Frame. Fans of the hard-driving rock of the group's '70s albums will find the sleek sound of Freeze Frame slightly disorienting, but the production gives the album cohesion. Good-time rock & roll remains at ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.13!
23 view cover	Pretty Hate Machine (1989) more music like this by Nine Inch Nails Virtually ignored upon its 1989 release, Pretty Hate Machine gradually became a word-of-mouth cult favorite; despite frequent critical bashings, its stature and historical importance only grew in hindsight. In addition to its stealthy rise to prominence, part of the album's legend was that budding auteur Trent Reznor took advantage of his low ... see all copies from $5.50! new only from $14.03!
24 view cover	Introducing the Hardline According to Terence Trent d'Arby (1987) more music like this by Terence Trent d'Arby Introducing the Hardline According to Terence Trent d'Arby is a strong debut by this young singer, who wrote virtually every note, played a multitude of instruments, and claimed that this was the most important album since the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper. Hits included "If You Let Me Stay," "Dance Little Sister," "Sign Your Name," and the number one ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.06!
25 view cover	Sandinista! (1980) more music like this by The Clash The Clash sounded like they could do anything on London Calling. For its triple-album follow-up, Sandinista!, they tried to do everything , adding dub, rap, gospel, and even children's choruses to the punk, reggae, R&B, and roots rock they already were playing. Instead of presenting a band with a far-reaching vision, like London Calling did, ... see all copies from $19.95! new only from $22.14!
