1	The Complete Studio Recordings (2000) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Although not as consistently magnificent as Hurt's 1928 recordings, the performances the artist recorded for Vanguard in the mid 1960's would be the zenith of many blues artist's entire careers. Songs like the opening "Payday" and "Poor Boy, Long Ways From Home" rank with any folk-blues song ever recorded. This fantastic set collects the three ... see all copies from $19.67! new only from $19.67!
2	The Best of Mississippi John Hurt [Vanguard] (1989) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Contrary to what its title would make one believe, this record is not a collection of previously available recordings by Mississippi John Hurt -- rather, it is a complete concert from Oberlin College on April 15, 1965. Regardless, the title is justified, as the concert features Hurt in excellent form doing most of his best known classic songs from ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
3	Today! (1966) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Today is Mississippi John Hurt's first and finest studio release since his "rediscovery" on his Avalon farm by folklorist Tom Hoskins in 1963. Eclipsed possibly only by his earlier 1928 Sessions, this album shows a more mature Hurt picking his way through standards and originals after the Depression years and Hurt's fall into obscurity before the ... see all copies from $11.92! new only from $11.92!
4	The Best of Mississippi John Hurt [Aim] (1998) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt did a live 21-song set on April 15, 1965, at Oberlin College in Ohio, a scant two years after his rediscovery in 1963, and a year before his death in 1966. Hurt was remarkably consistent as a performer, whether you listen to his famous 1920s Okeh tracks, his rediscovery studio work for Vanguard Records, or the handful of live ... see all copies from $13.91! new only from $13.91!
5	Live [Vanguard] (2002) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt's vocal and guitar style are always easy on the ears. Unlike a number of Delta stylists with their high-pitched voices and slashing slide guitars, Hurt's approach to country blues is immediately accessible. Recorded (for the most part) at Oberlin College in 1965, Live captures Hurt a couple of years after his rediscovery and ... see all copies from $15.23! new only from $15.23!
6	Avalon Blues (1963) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt This is the first in a multiple-volume series devoted to the Piedmont recordings Hurt made upon his rediscovery in the early '60s. They capture him with his playing and singing still intact, untouched by the world around him, a world that had changed so much since he initially recorded back in the '20s. Many of his best-known tunes are here -- ... see all copies from $9.05! new only from $9.05!
7	D.C. Blues: Library of Congress Recordings (2004) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt was easily the most accessible of all the 1920s bluesmen rediscovered still alive and in playing condition in the early 1960s. His easy, gentle singing voice and deft guitar picking abilities were still intact and undiminished, and where some of his hard-living contemporaries suffered from alcoholism, Alzheimer's, or just ... see all copies from $17.69! new only from $17.69!
8	Memorial Anthology (1993) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt's mid-'60s performances were usually distinctive and sometimes staggering. His guitar work was crisp, attractive and frequently brilliant, although his vocals were the real hook. Hurt's narratives, storytelling ability and general communicative powers were at their peak on this two-CD set, which has languished in a vault for ... see all copies from $23.69! new only from $23.69!
9	Vanguard: Roots of Folk (2002) more music like this by Various Artists Vanguard was one of the leading folk labels of the 1960s, due both to its own studio releases and its anthologies of performances from the Newport Folk Festivals. This is a three-CD set of Vanguard material from that era, encompassing live and studio tracks by many of the major icons of the time. The list is pretty amazing, in fact: the Weavers, ... see all copies from $19.67! new only from $19.67!
10	Rediscovered (1998) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Featuring over 75 minutes and 23 tracks, Rediscovered compiles tracks off Hurt's four Vanguard releases -- Today!, The Immortal Mississippi John Hurt, Last Sessions, and The Best of Mississippi John Hurt. The tracks selected are truly first-rate and give a fine cross-section of Hurt's gently rolling country-blues, including many of his better ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
11 view cover	Box of the Blues (2003) more music like this by Various Artists Rounder's four-CD Box of the Blues is, by looking at its inclusion of tracks, seemingly an ambitious proposition. But looks can be deceiving. Compiled and introduced by vice president of A&R Scott Billington -- a man whose credentials, when it comes to fighting for and preserving blues traditions, are unassailable -- these discs become a kind of ... see all copies from $24.33! new only from $24.33!
12 view cover	Vanguard Visionaries (2007) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Founded in 1950 by brothers Seymour Solomon and Maynard Solomon just as the LP format was taking hold (it had been introduced to the market two years previously), Vanguard Records took full advantage of the longer playing time afforded and began life as a classical label, moving easily into jazz, then gospel, bluegrass, blues, and folk (as Joan ... see all copies from $9.73! new only from $9.73!
13 view cover	Blues at Newport (1991) more music like this by Various Artists Blues at Newport -- Newport Folk Festival 1959-64 offers fine performances by John Hurt, Skip James, Rev. Gary Davis, Robert Wilkins, and others. Mark A. Humphrey, All Music Guide see all copies from $15.23! new only from $15.23!
14 view cover	Vanguard: Roots of the Blues (2002) more music like this by Various Artists This three-CD set draws from the Vanguard catalog of blues performances, focusing, apparently, mostly on recordings from the 1960s. "Apparently" because, in an act of negligence, no original recording or release dates are given for any of the 45 songs, except for four previously unreleased tracks done at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival and one done ... see all copies from $14.78! new only from $19.97!
15 view cover	As Good As It Gets: Country Blues (2000) more music like this by Various Artists For the most part, the Disky label's As Good As It Gets series lives up to its title, dividing early influential musical genres (gospel, cajun, hillbilly, jazz, etc.) into budget-priced two-disc samplers. As Good As It Gets: Country Blues includes 52 original classic performances from the likes of Big Bill Broonzy, Blind Willie McTell, Memphis ... see all copies from $11.98! new only from $20.59!

17 view cover	Satisfying Blues (1995) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt did a live 21-song set on April 15, 1965, at Oberlin College in Ohio, a scant two years after his rediscovery in 1963, and a year before his death in 1966. Hurt was remarkably consistent as a performer, whether you listen to his famous 1920s Okeh tracks, his rediscovery studio work for Vanguard Records, or the handful of live ... see all copies from $12.60! new only from $12.60!
18	Live at Newport more music like this by Various Artists Time-Life Music's Live at Newport, containing tracks licensed from Vanguard Records, was released as a bonus CD for people who bought the mail-order firm's four-double-CD package The Folk Years. Its 12 tracks, drawn from Vanguard's recordings of the Newport Folk Festival in the early and mid-'60s, largely parallel those on the main set; many of ... see all copies from $1.99!

20 view cover	I'm Satisfied (2005) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt did a live 21-song set on April 15, 1965, at Oberlin College in Ohio, a scant two years after his rediscovery in 1963, and a year before his death in 1966. Hurt was remarkably consistent as a performer, whether you listen to his famous 1920s Okeh tracks, his rediscovery studio work for Vanguard Records, or the handful of live ... see all copies from $16.57! new only from $16.57!
21 view cover	In Concert (1995) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt did a live 21-song set on April 15, 1965, at Oberlin College in Ohio, a scant two years after his rediscovery in 1963, and a year before his death in 1966.

22 view cover	Folksongs & Blues (2002) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt After a 35-year absence, Mississippi John Hurt made a return to recording with Folksongs & Blues, and his gentle, easygoing style of country blues hadn't changed a bit in the intervening years. Hurt croons, and even occasionally whispers, the lyrics, accompanied by the lazy strum of an acoustic guitar and a few touches of harmonica. He makes the ... see all copies from $53.23! new only from $53.23!
23 view cover	Frankie & Albert (2002) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt did a live 21-song set on April 15, 1965, at Oberlin College in Ohio, a scant two years after his rediscovery in 1963, and a year before his death in 1966. Hurt was remarkably consistent as a performer, whether you listen to his famous 1920s Okeh tracks, his rediscovery studio work for Vanguard Records, or the handful of live ... see all copies from $10.66! new only from $10.66!
24 view cover	The Lost Topic Tapes: Isle of Wight 1957 (2004) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott Brooklyn's most famous folk cowboy, Ramblin' Jack Elliott was part genuine preservationist and part a walking, talking pastiche of Woody Guthrie crossed with a back-porch Appalachian moonshiner. The public act sometimes gets in the way of the fact that Elliott was an excellent interpreter of American traditional folk material, carefully ... see all copies from $9.24! new only from $9.24!
25 view cover	Greatest Folksingers of the '60s (1972) more music like this by Various Artists Not only was Maynard Solomon's Vanguard Records one of the major folk labels of the 60s (having the prescience to pick up Joan Baez early on, and then recording the cream of the singer/songwriters thereafter), but it also had the rights to record and release material from the Newport Folk Festival, giving it access to several artists who were not ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
