1	Undercover Brother (2002) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to the amusing blaxploitation parody Undercover Brother wisely keeps it to the classics, adding only three new tracks -- the excellent blaxploitation homage "Undercova Funk (Give Up the Funk)" by Snoop Dogg, the solid Lil' J cut "I Need Luv (2002)," and Stanley Clarke's absolutely brilliant "Theme From Undercover Brother" -- to a ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $9.67!
2	Atomic Funk (2003) more music like this by Various Artists Truth in advertising, Atomic Funk contains 18 tracks that all deserve "Da Bomb" status. Besides massive party hits by George Clinton, Rick James, and Cameo, Atomic Funk throws in some lesser known but just as funky jams by L.T.D., Chuck Brown & the Soul Searchers, and Carl Carlton. The slower, but just as soulful, ballads "Ain't Nobody" and ... see all copies from $7.57! new only from $16.59!
3	Heroes of the Blues: The Very Best of Skip James (2003) more music like this by Skip James Skip James' soft eerie falsetto and odd guitar tunings place him apart from other Delta blues players, and when he took a turn at the piano, that, too, was unique. His reputation rests on a dozen or so sides recorded in the late '20s and early '30s, but when he was rediscovered in the 1960s, his skills were still intact and he recorded for several ... see all copies from $8.91! new only from $8.91!
4	Hard Time Killing Floor Blues (2003) more music like this by Skip James Hard Time Killing Floor Blues was the first session Skip James recorded following his rediscovery by John Fahey and Henry Vestine in the mid-'60s. Though he had not played the blues for more than 20 years, his skills were largely undiminished, and he turns in a fantastic set here. James was the pinnacle of the Bentonia (Mississippi) sound, which ... see all copies from $12.69! new only from $12.69!
5	Old School, Vol. 1 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists Thump's Old School series contains funk and soul singles from the '70s and '60s. Each volume contains 14 tracks, and while each disc is a little uneven, each has some highlights and classic songs. Among the highlights on Vol. 1 are "Flashlight," "Atomic Dog, " "All Night Long, " "It Takes Two, " "You Dropped the Bomb" and "Smerphies Dance." ... see all copies from $14.48! new only from $14.48!
6	Smooth Grooves: A Sensual Collection, Vol. 4 (1995) more music like this by Various Artists Smooth Grooves: A Sensual Collection, Vol. 4 collects more seductive slow jams and quiet storm ballads, including the Gap Band's "Outstanding," Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing," the Mary Jane Girls' "All Night Long," and the Isley Brothers' "Between the Sheets." Tracks by Debra Laws, Mtume, Patrice Rushen, and Betty Wright are among the other ... see all copies from $11.11! new only from $11.11!
7	In My House: The Very Best of the Mary Jane Girls (1994) more music like this by The Mary Jane Girls Critics tended to dismiss the Mary Jane Girls as lightweight fluff and an example of style over substance, but in fact, much of the group's material was appealing and memorable. Like Martha & the Vandellas and the Honey Cone before them, the Mary Jane Girls combined sweetness with grit. JoJo was the only member who could really sing, and she ... see all copies from $69.74!
8	Art Laboe's Dedicated to You, Vol. 7 (1995) more music like this by Various Artists Art Laboe is a legendary DJ who came to prominence in the '50s in Los Angeles playing doo wop and R&B. He became a promoter, club owner, and syndicated radio star; his Killer Oldies show is still going strong. He is also a label proprietor with Original Sounds. The label's Dedicated to You series is made up of ballads, dance tracks, and classic ... see all copies from $6.20! new only from $6.20!
9	American Folk Blues Festival 1962-1969, Vol. 2 (2004) more music like this by Various Artists The second volume of American Folk Blues Festival: 1962-1969 was originally recorded by German promoters and blues fanatics Horst Lippmann and Fritz Rau, who originally booked the tours through Europe. These 16 tracks have been deemed highlights and it's hard to argue with that assessment, especially when the musicians present include Howlin' Wolf ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $9.00!
10	Three Shades of Blues (1989) more music like this by Bukka White/Skip James/Blind Wille McTell Three Shades of Blues comprises a selection of tracks cut by Bukka White, Skip James, and Blind Willie McTell, all recorded during different eras. James's tracks were made in 1964, the first he cut since 1931. James fares the worst -- he sounds unsure of himself and several of the songs are painful to listen to. The five White tracks were recorded ... see all copies from $11.03! new only from $11.03!
11 view cover	Lowrider 25th Anniversary Tour (2001) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $22.38! new only from $22.38!
12 view cover	Mary Jane Girls (1983) more music like this by The Mary Jane Girls Rick James was riding so high at Motown in the early '80s that they signed his backup band and let James produce a couple of albums for them. This self-titled debut actually proved to be better than anticipated. The foursome got four R&B hits from this album, with "All Night Long" just missing the Top 10. They were no great shakes as vocalists, ... see all copies from $5.49! new only from $5.49!
13 view cover	She Lyin' (1964) more music like this by Skip James By the time James had been rediscovered in the 1960s, he was still capable of playing entrancing, dynamic music, but was much less consistent and not as striking a vocalist. It was a testimony to his greatness that he still managed to make compelling records, and he was among the best storytellers and dramatic singers in the traditional realm. ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $13.85!
14 view cover	Today! (1964) more music like this by Skip James The 12 sides that comprise Today! are among the best James would record after his rediscovery in the '60s. His playing may be a bit less intricate than that captured on his legendary 78s from the '30s, but his unique falsetto sounds no less troubled or haunting than before on this album's definitive performances of "Hard Times Killing Floor Blues, ... see all copies from $11.30! new only from $11.30!
15 view cover	Cosmic Funk [Polygram] (1997) more music like this by Various Artists Cosmic Funk is an entertaining sampler of late-'70s and early-'80s synth-driven, bass-heavy funk classics like Funkadelic's "One Nation under A Groove," Cameo's "She's Strange," Rick James' "Cold Blooded," the Bar-Kays' "Freakshow on the Dance Floor," the Mary Jane Girls' "All Night Long" and Bootsy Collins' "Bootzilla." It's not a perfect ... see all copies from $2.34!

17 view cover	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of the Mary Jane Girls (2001) more music like this by The Mary Jane Girls The Mary Jane Girls were always known as Rick James' protégées, because that's what they were. The superfreak dressed 'em up in skimpy outfits and provocative costumes, and had them sing songs very reminiscent of James -- actually, it's probably more accurate to say that the sound was closer to Prince or one of his protégés, because there was a ... see all copies from $7.98! new only from $7.98!
18 view cover	Number One Motown (2000) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $32.84! new only from $32.84!
19 view cover	20th Century Masters - The Millenniumm Collection: The Best of Rick James, Vol. 2 (2005) more music like this by Rick James & Friends This second 20th Century Masters installment devoted to soul-funk pioneer Rick James concentrates on an equally important but mildly overlooked aspect of his career: his moments behind the mixing desk as a producer. True, James' legacy will always reside in his major hits like "Superfreak" and "Mary Jane," but his brilliance didn't stop at the ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
