1	Timeless: The Classics (1992) more music like this by Michael Bolton It's hard to resist the notion that Michael Bolton, who took considerable flak in the press for storming the charts with copycat reproductions of '60s soul hits -- "(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay," "Georgia On My Mind," "When A Man Loves A Woman" -- felt "suddenly compelled," as he put it here in a sleeve note, to devote an entire album to cover ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.99!
2	Portrait of a Legend 1951-1964 (2003) more music like this by Sam Cooke Some 46 years after his first pop hit, and 39 years after his death, comes only the second attempt at a comprehensive Sam Cooke collection. Portrait of a Legend 1951-1964 eclipses RCA's early-'80s The Man and His Music, going it better in running time but losing some important recordings -- "That's Heaven to Me" and "Soothe Me," arguably one of ... see all copies from $13.93! new only from $13.93!
3	One Night Stand! Sam Cooke Live at the Harlem Square Club, 1963 (2005) more music like this by Sam Cooke Not only is this one of the greatest live soul albums ever released, it also reveals a rougher, rawer, and more immediate side to Sam Cooke that his singles only hinted at, good as they were. Working with a merged band that included guitarist Cliff White and drummer Albert "June" Gardner from Cooke's regular touring outfit and saxophonist King ... see all copies from $15.08! new only from $15.08!
4	King & Queen (1967) more music like this by Otis Redding & Carla Thomas Otis Redding never recorded a lighter, more purely entertaining record than King & Queen, a collection of duets with Stax labelmate Carla Thomas. In all likelihood inspired by a series of popular duets recorded by Marvin Gaye -- indeed, "It Takes Two," Gaye's sublime collaboration with Kim Weston, is covered here -- the record serves no greater ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.63!
5	Greatest Hits (1998) more music like this by Sam Cooke Although it isn't as sublime as the definitive The Man and His Music, Greatest Hits still does a good job of rounding up the majority of Sam Cooke's biggest pop hits. Ironically, it doesn't have enough gospel or R&B cuts, skipping over such essentials as "Touch the Hem of His Garment," "Ain't That Good News," and "A Change Is Gonna Come" in favor ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $8.89!
6	Retrospective (2004) more music like this by The Animals Initially, the Animals' Retrospective looks like just another greatest-hits compilation recycling the same old tracks already easily available elsewhere. Yawn! Yet, on closer inspection, there's a big difference with this particular set. These 22 tracks are taken from the ABKCO masters and utilize Direct Stream Digital (DSD), containing both CD ... see all copies from $13.93! new only from $13.93!
7	Best of the Animals [ABKCO] (1988) more music like this by The Animals see all copies from $7.84! new only from $7.84!
8	16 Most Requested Songs (2000) more music like this by Sam Cooke Velvety smooth, cool Sam Cooke left behind a legacy of recordings with his most renown located here on the tightest 16-track collection you'd find. The CD is a sing-along from the first selection, "You Send Me," to the last, "Summertime." The styles are blues, R&B, soul, and inspirational, and Cooke handles them all with the assurance of a master ... see all copies from $10.38! new only from $10.38!
9	It's Too Late to Stop Now... (1974) more music like this by Van Morrison While Van Morrison is, to be kind, an erratic and temperamental live performer, he's in stellar form throughout the double album It's Too Late to Stop Now, a superb concert set that neatly summarizes his career from his days with Them (represented by scorching renditions of "Gloria" and "Here Comes the Night") through 1973's Hard Nose the Highway ... see all copies from $13.00! new only from $14.41!
10	CHOBA B CCCP (1991) more music like this by Paul McCartney This album of rock & roll oldies -- "Lucille," "Twenty Flight Rock," and others -- was recorded in two days in July, 1987, and released exclusively in the Soviet Union in 1988. It finally saw release in the U.S. in 1991 with one extra track, "I'm in Love Again," added. McCartney gives a spirited reading to the songs, which, it may be noted, are in ... see all copies from $8.99! new only from $11.69!
11 view cover	Ali [Original Soundtrack] (2001) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Michael Mann's film biography Ali had one of the most hyperactive soundtracks in memory. Music underscores nearly every minute of the film, which seems at times to move less from scene to scene than song to song. Ever since Mann's Miami Vice days, his stylistically diverse, richly textured, and often dark musical selections have done as much to ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.40!
12 view cover	The Man Who Invented Soul [Box Set] (2000) more music like this by Sam Cooke This set is near essential to fans of Sam Cooke, despite the fact that it contains none of his gospel recordings for Specialty Records or any of the work from the final year of his career (owned by ABKCO Records). Scattered every few minutes across this four-disc collection are reminders of just how far ahead of all existing musical forms Cooke ... see all copies from $41.15! new only from $41.15!
13 view cover	The Man and His Music (1986) more music like this by Sam Cooke When this 28-song compilation (two LPs/one CD) originally appeared, it was the first serious exploration of Sam Cooke's catalog ever done. What's more, a lot of care went into the selection, if not the packaging -- despite the fact that it has no annotation, or even release dates on its 28 songs, The Man and His Music is still the only ... see all copies from $8.00!
14 view cover	Ten Years of Hits (1984) more music like this by Mickey Gilley Mickey Gilley may have been indebted to Jerry Lee Lewis, or it could be that the two cousins shared the same influences as well as bloodline, so they came out as near mirror images, right down to the way Gilley delivers a lascivious chuckle at the end of a verse in "Don't the Girls All Get Prettier at Closing Time." Mickey followed in Jerry Lee's ... see all copies from $5.75! new only from $10.05!
15 view cover	The Best of the Animals [EMI] (2002) more music like this by Animals see all copies from $7.00! new only from $7.36!
16 view cover	Soul '69 (1969) more music like this by Aretha Franklin One of her most overlooked '60s albums, on which she presented some of her jazziest material, despite the title. None of these cuts were significant hits, and none were Aretha originals; she displayed her characteristically eclectic taste in the choice of cover material, handling compositions by Percy Mayfield, Sam Cooke, Smokey Robinson, and, at ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $11.75!
17 view cover	Givin' It Up (2006) more music like this by George Benson/Al Jarreau Givin' It Up finds crossover jazz icons guitarist George Benson and vocalist Al Jarreau teaming up for a breezy, enjoyably melodic session that highlights both artists' long careers. Technically a duo album, it is Benson's first since signing with Concord Records. As such, it works as a nice reintroduction to both artists and even finds them ... see all copies from $12.88! new only from $12.88!
18 view cover	The Commitments, Vol. 2 (1992) more music like this by Original Soundtrack More R&B retreads from Ireland's favorite fictional White-soul band. Seven of the 11 tracks are billed as new recordings, so this is really film leftovers plus some filler. It shows, too -- it's a long way down from vol. 1's "I Can't Stand the Rain" to "Too Many Fish in the Seas." Brian Mansfield, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
19 view cover	16 Biggest Hits [Bonus Track] (2003) more music like this by Mickey Gilley The title of Epic/Legacy's 16 Biggest Hits is slightly misleading -- not because the collection doesn't contain big hits, but because there's really 17 songs on this collection, with the last cut a bonus track on the CD only. This doesn't really matter, since it doesn't really effect the tenor and purpose of the collection, which is to serve up 16 ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $9.00!
20 view cover	Brother to the Blues (2006) more music like this by Tab Benoit/Billy Joe Shaver/Jim Lauderdale Tab Benoit has been doing his brand of bayou-fed blues-rock for some time now, and while it is tempting to call Brother to the Blues a departure, it is really only a subtle one, straying as it does to the country side of things, but again, only a little bit, and there is probably little-to-no-chance that Benoit will turn into a hat act with a big ... see all copies from $10.09! new only from $10.09!
21 view cover	The Collection: Timeless: The Classics/Timeless: The Classics, Vol. 2/Love Songs (2005) more music like this by Michael Bolton This three-CD box set collection contains three of Michael Bolton's most popular discs, acting close to a greatest-hits box set, but not close enough. The first disc, Timeless, and its sequel, Volume 2, are soft rock exercises paying tribute to some of Bolton's all-time favorite songs and love ballads. The overly chorused production sounds a bit ... see all copies from $13.18! new only from $25.78!
22 view cover	The Best of Sam Cooke [RCA] (1962) more music like this by Sam Cooke Originally released in August 1962 under the title The Best of Sam Cooke, Volume 1 [RCA 2625], this album was reissued in 1965 as The Best of Sam Cooke [RCA 3466, later RCA 3863]. An above-average greatest hits collection, although no sampler could fully convey Sam Cooke's genius. It has since been reissued on CD [RCA 3863], so at least it's still ... see all copies from $8.61! new only from $8.61!
23 view cover	Hits! (2001) more music like this by Sam Cooke The problem with issuing compilations of Sam Cooke material is one of licensing, since his early gospel work with the Soul Stirrers is owned chiefly by Specialty Records; his first secular pop hits like "You Send Me," "(What A) Wonderful World," and "Only Sixteen" are owned by Keen Records; his middle pop period and songs like "Chain Gang," "Cupid ... see all copies from $19.19! new only from $19.19!
24 view cover	Absolute Animals 1964-1968 (2003) more music like this by The Animals As hard as it is to believe, there was no single-disc collection that contained all of the Animals' greatest hits until Raven Records released Absolute Animals 1964-1968 in 2003. Prior to this, compilations were devoted to one of three distinct eras. First, there were the first recordings that they made with producer Mickie Most, which included ... see all copies from $17.20! new only from $17.20!
25 view cover	Live at the Harlem Square Club, 1963 (1985) more music like this by Sam Cooke For anyone who thought they knew Sam Cooke's music based on the hit singles, this disc will be a revelation. This is the real Sam Cooke, doing a sweaty, raspy soulful set at the Harlem Square Club in North Miami, FL, on Jan. 12, 1963, backed by King Curtis and his band, a handful of local musicians, and Cooke's resident sidemen, guitarist Clifford ... see all copies from $9.70! new only from $22.50!
