1	Garden State (2004) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to Zach Braff's Garden State is nearly as much of a piece with the film as the similarly sweet, quirky combinations of sound and vision in Wes Anderson's films and soundtracks. Garden State, however, is more modern in its outlook and more emotionally direct, with a mixtape earnestness belied by using not one but two songs from the ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $6.59!
2	Long Black Veil (1995) more music like this by The Chieftains With Long Black Veil, the Chieftains attempted a mainstream pop crossover by recording with rock and pop stars from the Rolling Stones and Sting to Van Morrison and Sinéad O'Connor. Instead of changing their sound to accommodate the talents of their guests, the band plays it straight. As always, their performance is superb; what is surprising is ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.45!
3	Pink Moon (1972) more music like this by Nick Drake After two albums of tastefully orchestrated folk-pop, albeit some of the least demonstrative and most affecting around, Drake chose a radical change for what turned out to be his final album. Not even half-an-hour long, with 11 short songs and no more -- he famously remarked at the time that he simply had no more to record -- Pink Moon more than ... see all copies from $2.97! new only from $8.66!
4	The Bells of Dublin (1991) more music like this by The Chieftains Joined by Nancy Griffith, the Irish group presents a superb concert, blending folk and country music. Well recorded and well photographed. Bruce Eder, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.99!
5	Five Leaves Left (1969) more music like this by Nick Drake It's little wonder why Drake felt frustrated at the lack of commercial success his music initially gathered, considering the help he had on his debut record. Besides fine production from Joe Boyd and assistance from folks like Fairport Convention's Richard Thompson and his unrelated bass counterpart from Pentangle, Danny Thompson, Drake also ... see all copies from $6.27! new only from $8.66!
6	Serendipity (2001) more music like this by Original Soundtrack see all copies from $4.23! new only from $12.69!
7	A Gift from a Flower to a Garden (1967) more music like this by Donovan Rock music's first two-LP box set, A Gift from a Flower to a Garden overcomes its original shortcomings and stands out as a prime artifact of the flower-power era that produced it. The music still seems a bit fey, and overall more spacy than the average Moody Blues album of this era, but the sheer range of subjects and influences make this a ... see all copies from $10.36! new only from $14.52!
8	The Ultimate Collection (2005) more music like this by The Pogues For those who only know the Pogues from their duet Christmas hit with Kirsty MacColl, "Fairytale of New York," or don't know anything about the Irish group at all, this album was an excellent place to start. Featuring 23 tracks spread across their albums -- with three tracks from Red Roses for Me, eight from Rum Sodomy & the Lash, five from If I ... see all copies from $14.85! new only from $14.85!
9	Rogue's Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs, & Chanteys (2006) more music like this by Various Artists While the marketing insanity for Pirates of the Caribbean II continues to echo in the popular mindset, this whopping yet seemingly near-underground document -- born from the minds of the film's director, Gore Verbinski, his pal Johnny Depp, and Anti-Epitaph label boss (and Verbinski buddy) Brett Gurewitz -- may end up as a lasting contribution to ... see all copies from $11.69! new only from $19.42!
10	Donovan's Greatest Hits [Expanded Edition] (1999) more music like this by Donovan Epic/Legacy's 1999 reissue of Greatest Hits improves on the original 1969 collection in a number of ways. First of all, the original Hickory versions of "Catch the Wind" and "Colours" are included instead of re-recordings, which is enough to make this new edition preferable, but the compilers have also chosen to include the original mono version ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $11.06!
11 view cover	Very Best of the Pogues (2001) more music like this by The Pogues There's little question that the Pogues were a seminal band, blessed with great musicians, led by Shane MacGowan, a songwriter of major vision and talent. This was apparent on their initial Stiff singles but it truly blazed on their debut, Rum Sodomy & the Lash, an album that artfully walked the razor's edge between Irish traditionalism and ... see all copies from $16.39! new only from $16.39!
12 view cover	Underneath the Stars (2004) more music like this by Kate Rusby Few folk singers bring traditional song alive in the way Kate Rusby does. Her casual, intimate manner -- and the fact that she often adds her own tunes to the old words -- has a marvelous contemporary edge. There's not an ounce of affectation in her, which comes across more and more in each successive album. She's equally good on humorous pieces ... see all copies from $13.88! new only from $16.03!
13 view cover	Red Roses for Me [Bonus Tracks] (2005) more music like this by The Pogues What set the Pogues apart from any number of other energetic Irish traditional bands was the sheer physical force of their performances, the punky swagger of their personalities, and Shane MacGowan's considerable gifts as a songwriter. Unfortunately, none of these qualities comes through very clearly on their first album, Red Roses for Me. While ... see all copies from $9.51! new only from $10.76!
14 view cover	Troubadour: The Definitive Collection 1964-1976 (1992) more music like this by Donovan While by no means a complete retrospective, this two-disc compilation contains a healthy sampling from Donovan's first dozen years as a formidable musical figure. His chameleon-like sensibilities not only adapted to, but likewise defined the '60s folk, pop, acid rock and the scene of swingin' London. As well as hitting some of the more obvious ... see all copies from $14.67! new only from $17.76!
15 view cover	If I Should Fall from Grace with God [Bonus Track] (2006) more music like this by The Pogues If Rum Sodomy & the Lash captured the Pogues on plastic in all their rough-and-tumble glory, If I Should Fall from Grace with God proved they could learn the rudiments of proper record making and still come up with an album that captured all the sharp edges of their musical personality. Producer Steve Lillywhite imposed a more disciplined approach ... see all copies from $8.15! new only from $10.76!
16 view cover	Ghost of a Rose [Enhanced/Special Edition] (2003) more music like this by Blackmore's Night see all copies from $13.19! new only from $14.95!
17 view cover	Ten (2003) more music like this by Kate Rusby Kate Rusby is a folksinger through and through, with a tender, lilting voice and a penchant for traditional songs from her native British Isles. What sets her apart is somewhat intangible, though nevertheless there. Perhaps it's the fact that her original compositions snuggle up alongside timeless ballads like old friends. Perhaps it's the fact ... see all copies from $13.88! new only from $15.70!
18 view cover	In Concert November 1975 (2007) more music like this by Richard Thompson see all copies from $8.42! new only from $17.79!
19 view cover	The Hurdy Gurdy Man [Bonus Tracks] (2005) more music like this by Donovan Hurdy Gurdy Man, released in the U.S. in October 1968, was the first really good sounding Donovan album to come out through Epic Records in America, as well as being the most advanced and sophisticated of the artist's albums he'd made up until then. A product of several contacts between Donovan and Eastern culture, principally growing out of his ... see all copies from $7.69! new only from $13.48!
20 view cover	Liege & Lief [Deluxe Edition] (2007) more music like this by Fairport Convention In the decades since its original release, more than one writer has declared Fairport Convention's Liege & Lief the definitive British folk-rock album, a distinction it holds at least in part because it grants equal importance to all three parts of that formula. While Fairport had begun dipping their toes into British traditional folk with their ... see all copies from $17.05! new only from $28.99!
21 view cover	Shoot Out the Lights (1982) more music like this by Richard & Linda Thompson Richard & Linda Thompson's marriage was crumbling as they were recording Shoot Out the Lights in 1982, and many critics have read the album as a chronicle of the couple's divorce. In truth, most of the album's songs had been written two years earlier (when the Thompsons were getting along fine) for an abandoned project produced by Gerry Rafferty, ... see all copies from $6.75! new only from $11.05!
22 view cover	Reunion: A Decade of Solas [CD/DVD] (2006) more music like this by Solas see all copies from $17.41! new only from $17.41!
23 view cover	Tears of Stone (1999) more music like this by The Chieftains This album is a follow-up to the 1995 album The Long Black Veil. The idea is the same: the Chieftains play house band for many guest vocalists and musicians. The difference this time around is that all the musicians and vocalists featured are women. Sinéad O'Connor is the one return performance, and she justifies that honor with her sorrowful and ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.06!
24 view cover	The 5000 Spirits or the Layers of the Onion/The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter (2002) more music like this by The Incredible String Band This Collectors' Choice reissue pairs the second and third albums released by the Incredible String Band, the first material they recorded after being officially reduced to the duo of Mike Heron and Robin Williamson. Though they were lumped in with the psychedelic movement, the first is more like a slightly cosmic version of traditional British ... see all copies from $25.59! new only from $25.59!
25 view cover	Fire in the Kitchen (1998) more music like this by The Chieftains Unbeknownst to some, a healthy Celtic music scene developed in Canada during the '80s and '90s and the Chieftains wisely chose to spotlight the region with Fire in the Kitchen. Every track was recorded with a different artist and, like the group's previous collaborations, the album brings out the best in both the Chieftains and their guests. To ... see all copies from $9.47! new only from $11.06!
