1	Howlin' Wolf/Moanin' in the Moonlight (1986) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf Howlin' Wolf's first and second Chess albums are essential listening of the highest order. They were compiled -- as were all early blues albums -- from various single sessions (not necessarily a bad thing, either), and blues fans will probably debate endlessly about which of the two albums is the perfect introduction to his music. But this CD ... see all copies from $4.47! new only from $8.66!
2	Legacy: The Absolute Best (2003) more music like this by The Doors Truth be told, most casual Doors fans only need a well-assembled single-disc collection, containing all the hits and radio staples. Since that doesn't exist -- Rhino's 2001 collection The Very Best of the Doors missed too many key songs to suit the bill -- they'll have to settle for the comprehensive 2003 Rhino compilation Legacy: The Absolute ... see all copies from $12.95! new only from $34.30!
3	The Definitive Collection (2007) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf At six foot three and 270 pounds, Chester Burnett was a bear of a man, but his voice, rough and harsh as broken Delta glass, was what really gave him dimension. A powerful blues shouter out of the Charley Patton mold, Burnett (or Howlin' Wolf, as he came to be known) brought a feral fire to his vocals that made him sound like a gale force ... see all copies from $12.44! new only from $12.44!
4	His Best (1997) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf With the exception of a vinyl compilation issued in the early '80s (His Greatest Sides, Vol. 1), there'd never really ever been a single-disc Howlin' Wolf best-of package available. That all changed with this entry in MCA/Chess' 50th Anniversary series, a 20-track retrospective that serves as the perfect introduction to the man and his music, some ... see all copies from $12.87! new only from $17.64!
5	The Concert for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (1996) more music like this by Various Artists This two-disc set recapitulates the highlights of the seven-hour concert celebrating the 1996 opening of Cleveland's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. Included are live performances from the Allman Brothers Band, James Brown, Johnny Cash, George Clinton, Melissa Etheridge, Aretha Franklin, Jerry Lee Lewis, Iggy Pop, Soul Asylum, John ... see all copies from $8.71! new only from $18.50!
6	Absolutely Live (1970) more music like this by The Doors While this double disc (later combined with Alive, She Cried and Live at the Hollywood Bowl for CD release under the title In Concert) is valuable in that it contains material the Doors didn't release on their studio albums, it's also tilted toward some of their more boorish aspects. Recorded at concerts in 1969 and 1970, this was an era in which ... see all copies from $9.78! new only from $16.85!
7	In Concert (1991) more music like this by The Doors In Concert is the successor CD set to the individual releases of Absolutely Live (which remains in print as a single CD), Alive, She Cried, and Live at the Hollywood Bowl -- as none of them presented more than a single angle or two of the group's sound and each confined itself to only a portion of the group's repertoire, the three-in-one release ... see all copies from $12.49! new only from $22.26!
8	I Am the Blues (1970) more music like this by Willie Dixon The material is superb, consisting of some of Willie Dixon's best-known songs of the 1960s, and the production is smoothly professional, but none of the performances here are likely to make you forget the hits by Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, and others. Bruce Eder, All Music Guide see all copies from $5.33! new only from $5.33!
9	The Very Best of the Doors [2001 1 CD] (2001) more music like this by The Doors This is very, very close to being The Very Best of the Doors, and it does indeed contain most of the group's biggest hits and best-known songs, but this 2001 compilation does not supplant 1985's double-disc set The Best of the Doors as being the best Doors compilation on the market. It's not because the disc is sequenced non-chronologically, since ... see all copies from $18.42!
10	The Chess Box (1989) more music like this by Willie Dixon This was the most unusual, and probably the most difficult to assemble of MCA's Chess Box series, mostly because of the unusual nature of Willie Dixon's contribution to Chess Records. To be sure, Dixon rates a place in the history of the label right alongside that of Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, and Little Walter, but his role was more subtle than ... see all copies from $22.26! new only from $22.26!
11 view cover	Anthology (1997) more music like this by The Blues Project The most complete Blues Project collection ever assembled, the two-disc Anthology compiles 36 tracks taken from their three albums on Verve and their two records on Capitol as well as rare singles, previously unreleased songs and alternate versions, and material from solo projects. Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide see all copies from $27.16! new only from $27.16!
12 view cover	A Tribute to Howlin' Wolf (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Unlike most tribute albums, Telarc's A Tribute to Howlin' Wolf plays it pretty close to the vest, rounding up members of Wolf's backing band -- including guitarist Hubert Sumlin, pianist Henry Gray and drummer Sam Lay -- to support the musicians paying tribute. As a result, the album has a more coherent sound than most tribute records, but that ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
13 view cover	Memphis Blood: The Sun Sessions (2001) more music like this by James Blood Ulmer Over three days in April 2001, James "Blood" Ulmer and producer/guitarist Vernon Reid (yes, of Living Colour fame) went into the legendary Sun Studios in Memphis and kicked out some of the greasiest, knottiest, most surreal blues music ever. The blues have always been part of Ulmer's iconography, even when deeply entrenched in the harmolodic ... see all copies from $12.09! new only from $12.09!
14 view cover	The Best of the Doors [2000] (2000) more music like this by The Doors Not to be confused with the two-disc compilation of the same name (the one that displays Jim Morrison's Jesus Christ pose), and not to be confused with the identically designed The Very Best of the Doors, this particular Best of the Doors was distributed in various territories outside the U.S. in 2000. The Very Best of the Doors, released in 2001, ... see all copies from $9.89! new only from $9.89!
15 view cover	Muddy Water Fever (1997) more music like this by Blues Co-Op see all copies from $14.07! new only from $14.88!
16 view cover	RKO Live! (1995) more music like this by Robby Kreiger Organization see all copies from $6.74!
17 view cover	Ain't Life Grand (1975) more music like this by Black Oak Arkansas After three strong-selling albums in a row, Black Oak Arkansas released Ain't Life Grand to a somewhat cool response. The successes of the past seemed to have afforded the group better recording accommodations, as this 1975 offering sounds vastly superior to anything that preceded it. The material isn't improved, but the performances are tighter, ... see all copies from $10.65! new only from $10.65!
18 view cover	The Definitive Rock Collection (2006) more music like this by Black Oak Arkansas see all copies from $17.90! new only from $17.90!
19 view cover	Blue Blazes (1994) more music like this by Sugar Blue Harmonica player and vocalist Sugar Blue isn't a singer who doubles on harp; he's an extraordinary instrumentalist who's also a quality vocalist. Blue covers tunes by Willie Dixon, Muddy Waters, James Cotton and Sonny Boy Williamson (II) classics, presents a decent, if disposable version of The Rolling Stones' "Miss You," and adds the good-natured ... see all copies from $8.99! new only from $11.05!
20 view cover	The Collection (2000) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf Though there are countless others, this is a pretty neat little compilation of Howlin' Wolf's best moments from various points in his career. Containing 18 tracks for a budget price, many of the true classics are here, from "Evil" and "Smokestack Lightning" to "Spoonful" and "Back Door Man." There are also a coupe of surprises that don't usually ... see all copies from $11.75! new only from $11.75!
21 view cover	Unreleased Quicksilver: Lost Gold and Silver (2000) more music like this by Quicksilver Messenger Service By licensing these previously unreleased live and studio tracks (plus some previously released but rare material) from the Special Markets division of EMI-Capitol Music, the mail-order company Collectors' Choice Music has legitimized Quicksilver Messenger Service recordings that had floated around on bootlegs and quasi-legal discs for many years. ... see all copies from $14.32! new only from $24.10!
22 view cover	Born in Clarksdale Mississippi (2001) more music like this by Johnny B. Moore see all copies from $16.84! new only from $17.00!
23	13 (1970) more music like this by The Doors The success and continued popularity of 13 over the years was a perfect illustration of the way in which the Doors (and their record label) successfully manipulated the group's image in two distinctly different directions. 13 presented the Doors' most accessible, AM radio-friendly music, even bypassing their rather daring debut single, "Break On ... see all copies from $3.48!
24 view cover	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Howlin' Wolf (2003) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf While this 12-track collection of Howlin' Wolf's prime Chess material is classic electric blues music, it's a distinctly less worthy deal than the 20-track His Best. The latter anthology has the classic "How Many More Years," "Howlin' for My Darling," "Shake for Me," and "Three Hundred Pounds of Joy," none of which make it onto this briefer scoop; ... see all copies from $9.09! new only from $9.09!
25 view cover	On the Road Again (1976) more music like this by Luther "Georgia Boy Snake" Johnson On the Road Again, an early-'70s outing, shows Johnson in fine form, assisted by a tough backing band. Cut in France. Bill Dahl, All Music Guide see all copies from $12.99! new only from $14.57!
