1	The Bodyguard (1992) more music like this by Original Soundtrack 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 $2.99!
2	If I Could Turn Back Time: Cher's Greatest Hits [Interscope] (1999) more music like this by Cher The 1999 compilation If I Could Turn Back Time concentrates on Cher's big hits of the late '80s and early '90s. There are some selections from the early '70s ("Half-Breed" and "Gypsys, Tramps and Thieves"), plus the Sonny & Cher "I Got You Babe," but the collection spends its time on the post-Moonstruck era. It does not do this badly, but it ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.96!
3	Emotive (2004) more music like this by A Perfect Circle When Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan covered Wings' "Silly Love Songs" as a guest vocalist for the Replicants, it was amusing and well thought out. When Tool covered "No Quarter" in concert it was intense, appropriate, and staggeringly good. And when Maynard continued the tradition with the beautiful recording of Failure's "The Nurse Who Loved ... see all copies from $9.95! new only from $11.12!
4	The Best of Elvis Costello: The First 10 Years (2007) more music like this by Elvis Costello Six years after the commencement of a major Elvis Costello reissue campaign at Rhino, his catalog transferred over to Universal, which had been releasing new Elvis music since 1998's Painted from Memory. Like every one of his previous two big catalog shifts -- a campaign with Rykodisc/Demon in 1994, a jump to Rhino in 2001 -- the 2007 series is ... see all copies from $10.90! new only from $10.90!
5	The Very Best of Elvis Costello (2001) more music like this by Elvis Costello Elvis Costello seems to have an aversion to presenting his work in a logical, comprehensive fashion, if the double-disc The Very Best of Elvis Costello is any indication. Like its predecessor, Girls Girls Girls, it sprawls over two discs, with very little regard to chronology or style, baffling and enticing listeners in equal measure. Although ... see all copies from $20.16!
6	Armed Forces (1979) more music like this by Elvis Costello & the Attraction After releasing and touring the intense This Year's Model, Elvis Costello quickly returned to the studio with the Attractions to record his third album, Armed Forces. In contrast to the stripped-down pop and rock of his first two albums, Armed Forces boasted a detailed and textured pop production, but it was hardly lavish. However, the more ... see all copies from $2.68! new only from $10.96!
7	Enchantment (1990) more music like this by Spheeris w/ Paul Voudouris After two highly acclaimed releases that have set standards in new age music circles for pop romanticism, Chris Spheeris has taken his style to new heights in his new collaboration with longtime friend and musical associate Paul Voudoris. "Enchantment" is right on the mark, a fully mature effort that paraphrases much of Spheeris's previous work ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.16!
8	State of Grace (2007) more music like this by The Holmes Brothers The Holmes Brothers do what they do supremely well, taking all sorts of music and making it into gospel -- a sort of musical equivalent of alchemy. There's more of it here, plenty of their own material, but with some absolutely glorious covers. They utterly re-imagine Cheap Trick's perky "I Want You to Want Me" as a piece of '50s gospel, make ... see all copies from $6.16! new only from $15.24!
9	Gold (2005) more music like this by Kool & the Gang Believe it or not, Gold is the first compilation with U.S. distribution to provide a fair and rather thorough glance at Kool & the Gang's career from 1969 through 1987. Dozens upon dozens of other sets either focus on one of the group's distinct eras or attempt clumsily to appease those who want "Jungle Boogie" and "Joanna" in one spot. The ... see all copies from $16.72! new only from $16.72!
10	Gold (2005) more music like this by Cher 2005's Gold is basically an expanded version of 2003's The Very Best of Cher, running to 32 tracks instead of 21. It retails for about the same price, and unless you don't want the extra 11 songs, supplants that album as the best career-spanning collection on the market. And what a career she had. Starting in the mid-'60s with the girl group ... see all copies from $4.98! new only from $17.79!
11 view cover	American Scream (2007) more music like this by P.J. Olsson see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
12 view cover	Power of the Trinity (2000) more music like this by Israel Vibration Israel Vibration is virtually unique amongst vocal groups in that all three (later two) of the members have contributed equally to the songwriting. This rare talent gives them further distinction, as each composer sings lead on his own songs, the others stepping back to provide the harmonies. These forever-shifting perspectives and lead vocals ... see all copies from $26.68! new only from $26.68!
13 view cover	Axis Of Justice: Concert Series, Vol. 1 [Bonus DVD] (2004) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $2.37! new only from $12.22!
14 view cover	Flesh and Bone (1996) more music like this by Lucy Kaplansky Produced by Anton Sanko, Lucy Kaplansky's second album showcases her songwriting, with strong ballads such as "If You Could See" and "Still Life," a moving character sketch that has been the centerpiece of her live performances. Her unique voice, steely and supple, moves easily from irony to aching sincerity, a feat not often accomplished since ... see all copies from $9.49! new only from $15.61!
15 view cover	The Best of Kool & the Gang 1969-1976 (1993) more music like this by Kool & the Gang Although Kool & the Gang became pop superstars in the 1980s on the strength of J.T. Taylor's silky voice and several catchy arrangements, R&B fans regard their true glory days as the 1970s. The New Jersey-based ensemble patented a jazz-tinged funk approach keyed by Robert "Kool" Bell's basslines, red-hot horn lines, chunky keyboards and guitar ... see all copies from $10.66! new only from $10.66!
16 view cover	Nelson Mandela AIDS Concert: Amandla (2004) more music like this by Various Artists One of three CDs capturing the November 29, 2003, benefit concert for Nelson Mandela's AIDS awareness campaign, 46664 (named after Mandela's prisoner number), Nelson Mandela AIDS Concert: Amandla includes the big highlight of the series. A reunited Eurythmics sound bright, driven, and looser than ever on their ends-way-too-soon three-song set. The ... see all copies from $3.79! new only from $16.52!
17 view cover	Peace...Back by Popular Demand (2004) more music like this by Keb' Mo' Peace...Back by Popular Demand finds Keb' Mo' covering nine classic protest and peace songs from the 1960s and early '70s, and what is immediately apparent is how well these songs translate forward into the current political milieu. This is an album where the songs themselves are the stars, and Keb' Mo' wisely takes a low-key and measured vocal ... see all copies from $10.66! new only from $10.66!
18 view cover	Love Hurts (1991) more music like this by Cher 1991's Love Hurts follows the same formula as the Cher and Heart of Stone albums that had rejuvenated Cher's pop career in the late 1980s. The result, however, is particularly formulaic, with Cher's vocals sounding largely uninspired and the production and backing musicians content to be obvious. The moderate hit singles "Love and Understanding" ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
19 view cover	Love Hurts [Reissue] (1991) more music like this by Cher 1991's Love Hurts follows the same formula as the Cher and Heart of Stone albums that had rejuvenated Cher's pop career in the late 1980s. The result, however, is particularly formulaic, with Cher's vocals sounding largely uninspired and the production and backing musicians content to be obvious. The moderate hit singles "Love and Understanding" ... see all copies from $2.95!
20 view cover	What IS So Funny About Peace Love & Understanding? (2001) more music like this by Brinsley Schwarz Although it doesn't top the peerless Hen's Teeth -- which is about as perfect an archival release as any Brinsley fan could hope for -- it's impossible not to delight in Hux's 2001 collection, What IS So Funny About Peace Love and Understanding, a collection of the band's Radio 1 sessions from 1972 and 1975. This is not the complete sessions, but ... see all copies from $16.81! new only from $16.81!
21 view cover	Armed Forces [Rhino Bonus Disc] (2002) more music like this by Elvis Costello and the Attractions Into the third batch of Rhino's Deluxe Edition reissue campaign of the Elvis Costello catalog, a familiar pattern certainly began to emerge. Each disc has more tracks, better liner notes than the Demon/Rykodisc reissues, which had all the heavy-hitters -- all the B-sides, the bonus EPs, the demos that truly matter. This is especially the case of ... see all copies from $3.50!
22 view cover	Emotive [Clean] (2004) more music like this by A Perfect Circle When Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan covered Wings' "Silly Love Songs" as a guest vocalist for the Replicants, it was amusing and well thought out. When Tool covered "No Quarter" in concert it was intense, appropriate, and staggeringly good. And when Maynard continued the tradition with the beautiful recording of Failure's "The Nurse Who Loved ... see all copies from $1.99!
23 view cover	200 Cigarettes (1999) more music like this by Original Soundtrack 200 Cigarettes bombed in theatres, but the soundtrack album, strong enough to stand on its own, deserves a better fate. It's chock full of music that loosely ties in with the New Year's Eve 1979 party (duration: 200 cigarettes) that is the basis of the movie starring Courtney Love, Christina Ricci, Martha Plimpton and more. The Blondie medley is ... see all copies from $5.99!
24 view cover	Surrender to the Rhythm (1991) more music like this by Brinsley Schwarz The 20-track compilation Surrender to the Rhythm is an excellent retrospective of Brinsley Schwarz's career. The compilation is culled from each of the group's albums, touching lightly on their earlier records and drawing heavily from Silver Pistol, Nervous on the Road, and The New Favourites, which is appropriate, since they were the stronger ... see all copies from $16.44! new only from $16.44!
25 view cover	Keep on Running (2003) more music like this by Robben Ford On his second album for the Concord Jazz label, guitarist Robben Ford stays pretty much to the formula of Blue Moon from 2001. He concentrates on playing, singing, and covering great songs (and even writes a few) with interesting arrangements, inspired solos, and crisp, clean production that lets the song shine through the players. Much has been ... see all copies from $13.15! new only from $13.15!
