1	The Very Best of Canned Heat [Capitol] (2005) more music like this by Canned Heat With the glut of Canned Heat compilations available, what makes this 19-song Capitol/EMI release better than the rest? For starters, the previously unreleased track "Henry's Shuffle," featuring guitarist Henry Vestine and recorded in 1968, which was undoubtedly the zenith year for the band; the inclusion of "Low Down (And High Up)"; the rare ... see all copies from $9.20! new only from $9.20!
2	Live in Europe (1972) more music like this by Rory Gallagher After two critically acclaimed but commercially disappointing solo studio albums, Rory Gallagher unleashed this raging live disc in 1972 at the age of 23. It not established him in the States, where he had toured only once previously (with his first band Taste, opening for Blind Faith on their brief tour), and was a worldwide hit. Gallagher blasts ... see all copies from $6.84! new only from $6.84!
3	The Best of Canned Heat [EMI] (1972) more music like this by Canned Heat This ten-track set contains essential sides from the classic rock blues and boogie combo Canned Heat, culled from their first four long-players: Canned Heat (1967), Boogie With Canned Heat (1968), Living the Blues [Akarma] (1968), and Hallelujah (1969). Notably, this discounts Canned Heat Cookbook (1969), a hits package that cashed in on their ... see all copies from $8.19! new only from $8.19!
4	The Big Guns: The Very Best of Rory Gallagher (2005) more music like this by Rory Gallagher The compilation Big Guns: The Very Best of Rory Gallagher is one of the ways assembling a retrospective should be done. This set offers a portrait of a true guitar hero and songwriter, one whose flash never outweighed his substance, one whose work is so utterly and dazzlingly fresh it not only stands the test of time, but transcends it. Being an ... see all copies from $10.16! new only from $10.16!
5	The Live One (2003) more music like this by Dave Hole While subtlety isn't exactly his strong suit -- especially live -- it's also not what Dave Hole fans expect out of their Australian slide guitar slinger. The word "ferocious" best describes his over-the-fret, over-the-top technique, and what was merely intense on his studio albums gets kicked up a few notches in concert. Like George Thorogood, ... see all copies from $10.23! new only from $14.74!
6	How Late'll Ya Play 'Til?, Vol. 1: Live (1976) more music like this by David Bromberg David Bromberg has been such an effective sideman for so long, it could be possible to not notice what a wonderful entertainer the man is when he is at center stage. How Late'll Ya Play 'Til?, Vol. 1 catches Bromberg and a crack band having a fine time on mostly humorous tunes. Of course, Bromberg does play guitar throughout the album, but the ... see all copies from $10.14! new only from $10.14!
7	The Monterey International Pop Festival, June 16-17-18, 1967 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists A sumptuous, four-CD box set with all the deluxe trimmings celebrating the grandaddy of all outdoor rock concerts. With legendary performances by Otis Redding, the Who, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, the Byrds, and Paul Butterfield all taken from the mobile-unit multi-track masters (not to mention an album-sized booklet that'll knock your eyes out), ... see all copies from $60.00!
8	Cockadoodledon't [Bonus Track] (2003) more music like this by The Legendary Shack Shakers Even a label that goes by the slogan "the home of insurgent country" pushes their boundaries for these gonzo, stripped-down rockabilly blues folks. With horror-movie vocals by frontman "Colonel" J.D Wilkes straight out of the Lux Interior school and a hardcore, ragged combination of frayed blues, twisted bluegrass, and ornery swamp, this is a full ... see all copies from $10.04! new only from $10.04!
9	The Essential (2007) more music like this by Rory Gallagher see all copies from $14.68! new only from $14.68!
10	Uncanned! The Best of Canned Heat (1994) more music like this by Canned Heat For all but the completists, this anthology should more than suffice as an apt compact-disc retrospective of Canned Heat's releases on Liberty Records. To that end, it's a more or less chronological overview of the combo's LPs, commencing with a trio of tunes from a spring 1967 studio session that predates their self-titled debut (1967). Primary ... see all copies from $14.98! new only from $14.98!
11 view cover	Let's Work Together (2001) more music like this by Canned Heat see all copies from $10.00! new only from $18.65!
12 view cover	Very Best of Canned Heat [EMI] (2001) more music like this by Canned Heat Formed by three avid blues record collectors, Canned Heat reformatted the sound of those beloved old 78s into ragged electric guitar boogies that fit the gestalt of the Woodstock generation. Guitarist and harmonica player Alan Wilson, singer Bob Hite, and guitarist Henry Vestine took their record collecting seriously, lifting the quill section ... see all copies from $7.75! new only from $7.75!
13	How Late'll Ya Play 'Til? (1976) more music like this by David Bromberg Bromberg's band, with two horns and a fiddle player, is capable of playing just about any style of popular music, and most of them are here on a double album, half recorded in the studio and half live. (Fantasy has also issued the two discs separately.) The standout inclusion is Bromberg's "Will Not Be Your Fool," which became his onstage ... see all copies from $6.24! new only from $24.00!
14 view cover	The Anthology (2007) more music like this by Canned Heat see all copies from $8.81! new only from $8.81!
15 view cover	On the Road Again [EMI] (1989) more music like this by Canned Heat This 15-track single-disc collection was culled from Canned Heat (1967), Boogie With Canned Heat (1968), Living the Blues (1968), Hallelujah (1969), and Future Blues (1970). Arguably, Canned Heat Cookbook (1969) -- a hits package in its own right -- could be lumped in since it was the first full-length platter with "Going Up the Country," which ... see all copies from $5.00!
16 view cover	Muggshot (1993) more music like this by Muggsy Spanier As an encapsulation of Muggsy Spanier's lengthy career, this excellent compilation presents many of the cornetist's most important sessions in something approaching chronological sequence. The survey begins in 1924 with the Bucktown Five, a scruffy little band that included clarinetist Volly DeFaut and pianist Mel Stitzel. A slightly rarer track ... see all copies from $5.45!
17 view cover	Old Scool Hot Wings (2006) more music like this by Jas Mathus & Knockdown South Call him Jim, James, Jimbo, Jas., call him what you will; all you really need to know is that he's from Mississippi, and that he plays the blues. That's certainly all that matters on James Mathus' latest record with his band Knockdown South, Old Scool Hot Wings. He sticks to the Delta basics here, a dirty acoustic guitar and his voice, plus a bass ... see all copies from $7.88!
18	Live in Europe/Stage Struck (1991) more music like this by Rory Gallagher The live album Live in Europe/Stage Struck captures Rory Gallagher at his finest, as he tears his way through many of his very best songs. Though the performance quality is a little uneven, there are gems scattered throughout the record, including smoking versions of "Messin' with the Kid" and "Laundromat." Thom Owens, All Music Guide see all copies from $8.50! new only from $8.50!
19 view cover	Shake 'Em on Down (2000) more music like this by David "Honeyboy" Edwards This 1999 session finds Honeyboy working his acoustic magic in the company of Madison Slim on harmonica and Jimmy D. Lane, son of the late Jimmy Rogers, on second guitar. Recorded at the Blue Heaven Studios (a converted church) in Salina, Kansas, this is a pretty inspired session with Edwards running through old classics like Charlie Patton's ... see all copies from $12.27! new only from $12.27!
20 view cover	Reheated (1989) more music like this by Canned Heat Originally released in Europe, this features a reconstituted Canned Heat lineup from 1988. Drummer Fito de la Parra and bassist Larry Taylor are the only two left over from the old days, but that doesn't seem much of a problem here, as top-flight guitar work from Junior Watson and James Thornbury drives these songs right along. There's a nice, ... see all copies from $2.49!
21 view cover	Mississippi Masters: Early American Blues Classics 1927-1935 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists This is a well-organized, smartly chosen 20-track compilation of some of the lesser-known early Mississippi blues artists. Garfield Akers is about the most famous, which tells you right there how obscure most of these names -- King Solomon Hill, Otto Virgial, Mattie Delaney, Joe Calicott, Blind Joe Reynolds, John D. Fox and others -- are to the ... see all copies from $13.75! new only from $13.75!
22 view cover	Best of Canned Heat [Disky] (1999) more music like this by Canned Heat Disky's Best of Canned Heat collection combines all original material taken from their most popular late- '60s Liberty albums: Boogie With Canned Heat, Future Blues, and Canned Heat. The most obvious of their well-loved hippie blues tracks are here, including "On the Road Again," "Going Up the Country," "Fried Hockey Boogie," and "Let's Work ... see all copies from $12.33! new only from $12.33!
23 view cover	Reheated [Bonus Track] (2006) more music like this by Canned Heat Originally released in Europe, Reheated features a reconstituted Canned Heat lineup from 1988. Drummer Fido de la Parra and bassist Larry Taylor are the only two left over from the old days, but that doesn't seem much of a problem here, as top-flight guitar work from Junior Watson and James Thornbury drives these songs right along. There's a nice, ... see all copies from $10.19! new only from $10.19!
24 view cover	The Best There Ever Was: The Legendary Early Blues Performers (2003) more music like this by Various Artists Yazoo Records has long been one of the prime sources for rural blues reissues from the 1920s and '30s. Transferred from old 78s, some so rare only a single copy or two are known to exist, these tracks offer a wonderful glimpse into a fabled blues past. Essentially a kind of greatest-hits collection for Yazoo, The Best There Ever Was features ... see all copies from $13.95! new only from $13.95!
25 view cover	Roots of Canned Heat (2001) more music like this by Various Artists Canned Heat was formed by three ardent record collectors with a devout passion for old blues 78s from the 1920s and '30s. Guitarist and harmonica player Alan Wilson, singer Bob Hite, and guitarist Henry Vestine took their scholarly interest in these remarkable old recordings and lovingly re-created them for the emerging rock audience in the late ... see all copies from $10.24! new only from $10.24!
