1	King of the Blues [Box] (1992) more music like this by B.B. King No way can a mere four discs cover every facet of the blues king's amazing recording career, but MCA makes a valiant stab at it. The first two discs, as expected, are immaculate: opening with his Bullet Records debut ("Miss Martha King"), the box continues with a handful of pivotal RPM/Kent masters before digging into his 1960s ABC-Paramount ... see all copies from $13.50! new only from $53.07!
2	The Ultimate Collection (2005) more music like this by B.B. King In theory, the idea behind Geffen's 2005 compilation The Ultimate Collection seems sound: gather together 21 iconic tracks from the entirety of B.B. King's long career and present them on one handy disc. While there have been plenty of King comps throughout the years -- some great, some merely passable, but often all very good -- there has never ... see all copies from $15.58!
3	Gold (2006) more music like this by B.B. King Compiling a double-disc set ranging across the long recording career of an artist like B.B. King, who has a longevity in the business that is not only startling but awe-inspiring, is a challenge indeed. Universal's Gold representation of B.B. King covers the years 1963 (14 years after he began) to 1999, so tracks from his platinum Riding with the ... see all copies from $19.52! new only from $19.52!
4	Live at the Checkerboard Lounge (1988) more music like this by Buddy Guy see all copies from $15.11! new only from $15.11!
5	Anthology (2000) more music like this by B.B. King MCA's double-disc set Anthology is a bit of a blessing, actually, a welcome entry to B.B. King's extensive catalog, since the last half of his career has not been anthologized often (it was most notably on the box set The King of Blues). Once King's career entered the '70s, he never lost his way, but his recordings became uneven. The situation ... see all copies from $13.28! new only from $21.99!
6	Blues Helping (1968) more music like this by Love Sculpture As hyperkinetic blues albums by white English kids go, this is a good one. Dave Edmunds, armed only with a 1959 Gibson 335 and a 100-watt Marshall stack, cranks through these recognizable blues covers (with one original instrumental) with reckless abandon and gobs of technique. Backup support is handled by bassist John Williams and drummer Bob ... see all copies from $12.28! new only from $12.28!
7	Blues Is King [MCA] (1967) more music like this by B.B. King see all copies from $5.84! new only from $5.84!
8	His Best: The Electric B.B. King (1968) more music like this by B.B. King Although this collection has "Don't Answer the Door," "Paying the Cost to Be the Boss" and a nice live re-cut of "Sweet Sixteen" to highly recommend it, this 1968 issue is hardly King's best, and the "electric" part of the title makes it sound like there's an acoustic B.B. King album lurking around somewhere that you and I somehow missed in the ... see all copies from $2.43! new only from $10.25!
9	I Like to Live the Love (1990) more music like this by Bobby "Blue" Bland see all copies from $5.49! new only from $5.49!
10	Best of B.B. King: 20th Century Masters (1999) more music like this by B.B. King Like any record company worth their salt, MCA knows a good gimmick when they see it, and when the millennium came around -- well, the 20th Century Masters -- The Millennium Collection wasn't too far behind. Supposedly, the millennium is a momentous occasion, but it's hard to feel that way when it's used as another excuse to turn out a budget-line ... see all copies from $2.15!
11 view cover	Basic Blues, Vol. 1 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $5.24! new only from $5.24!
12 view cover	Species 2 (1998) more music like this by Original Soundtrack see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
13 view cover	Chronicles: Live at the Regal/Blues Is King/Live in Cook County Jail (2005) more music like this by B.B. King In 2005 MCA/Universal repackaged B.B. King's greatest live albums -- Live at the Regal, Blues Is King and Live in Cook County Jail -- as a three-CD box set. It's not a bad way to acquire the albums if you don't already own them, but there are no bonus tracks or new packaging or remastering, which means it's of marginal interest to hardcore ... see all copies from $26.99! new only from $26.99!
14 view cover	Universal Masters Collection (2000) more music like this by B.B. King see all copies from $12.96! new only from $12.96!
15 view cover	Live & Well (1969) more music like this by B.B. King Although Live & Well wasn't a landmark album in the sense of Live at the Regal, it was a significant commercial breakthrough for King, as it was the first of his LPs to enter the Top 100. That may have been because recognition from rock stars such as Eric Clapton had finally boosted his exposure to the White pop audience, but it was a worthy ... see all copies from $6.97! new only from $24.37!
16 view cover	Living Chicago Blues, Vol. 2 (1978) more music like this by Various Artists This set is almost as incendiary as Vol. 1, thanks to four sides each from Magic Slim, Lonnie Brooks, and Pinetop Perkins. Bill Dahl, All Music Guide see all copies from $15.00! new only from $15.59!
17 view cover	The Best of the EMI Years (2005) more music like this by Dave Edmunds see all copies from $10.00! new only from $14.29!
18 view cover	His Definitive Greatest Hits (1999) more music like this by B.B. King see all copies from $21.44! new only from $21.44!
19 view cover	Martin Scorsese Presents the Blues: B.B. King (2003) more music like this by B.B. King Issued as part of a series in conjunction with the major television documentary series The Blues, this is a hop-skip-jump 12-song compilation of tracks spanning nearly half a century, from the early '50s to the late '90s. For a man whose prolific career has actually been the subject of more than one box set, it's a rather skimpy overview. Still, ... see all copies from $7.70! new only from $7.70!
20 view cover	Anthology: Sound+Vision [2 CD & DVD] (2004) more music like this by B.B. King see all copies from $36.65! new only from $36.65!
21 view cover	Playlist Plus (2008) more music like this by B.B. King see all copies from $26.33! new only from $27.05!
22	Together for the First Time (1974) more music like this by B.B. King & Bobby Bland The first of his relaxed collaborations with Bobby Bland. Bill Dahl, All Music Guide see all copies from $11.56!
23 view cover	Best of B.B. King [Madacy Box Set] (2006) more music like this by B.B. King see all copies from $13.93! new only from $13.93!
24 view cover	Millennium Collection: 20th Century Masters (2007) more music like this by B.B. King see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
25 view cover	The Best of Bobby Bland, B.B. King & Little Junior Parker (1992) more music like this by Various Artists MCA Special Products' The Best of Bobby Bland, B.B. King & Little Junior Parker contains a selection of tracks from each artist, leaning heavily in the direction of Bobby Bland. Such unevenness is typical for budget line collections and it's forgiveable here, because the material is all quite good. After all, the three featured artists are masters ... see all copies from $5.98! new only from $5.98!
