1	The Original Delta Blues (1998) more music like this by Son House Columbia/Legacy's The Original Delta Blues is a fine distillation of the label's double-disc set Father of the Delta Blues, containing 16 highlights from that comprehensive overview of his '60s rediscovery recordings. Curious listeners who are intimidated by the size of the previous set are advised to pick up this terrific sampler instead. ... see all copies from $5.33! new only from $5.33!
2	Gov't Mule (1995) more music like this by Gov't Mule Gov't Mule's self-titled debut is a scorching set of heavy blues-rockers. Although they have some difficulty coming up with memorable original material, the band is loose, funky, gritty, and real. They have enough burning licks to make the record a worthwhile listen for guitar fanatics. David Jehnzen, All Music Guide see all copies from $11.66! new only from $11.66!
3	The Phenomenal Ruthie Foster (2007) more music like this by Ruthie Foster Ruthie Foster's fifth CD features the singer moving away from her usual genre of modern folk music into soul. While she performs selections by Son House and Sister Rosetta Tharpe and there are bluesy performances, most of the numbers are of more recent vintage. Her powerful voice, which infuses secular music with the power and emotions of gospel, ... see all copies from $13.59! new only from $13.59!
4	Miss Blues' Child (2007) more music like this by Eli Cook The white blues performers of the 1960s desperately wanted to sound like 65 year-old sharecroppers. Young Eli Cook manages that trick without trying, with a deep voice that sounds as old as the hills. On this blues album, a mix of his good originals and some traditional material and standards, he shows himself to be a performer of great talent, if ... see all copies from $9.50! new only from $15.49!
5	Portland's Genuine Blues (2003) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $2.95! new only from $9.44!
6	Revisited (2002) more music like this by Son House Revisited is a double-disc of live Son House recordings from the Mississippi delta blues legend's twilight years on the folk revival circuit. Disc one is a mid-'60s performance at Oberlin College; after a scholarly introduction by his then-manager Dick Waterman, House starts out in fine form, prefacing each song with long, discursive monologues ... see all copies from $10.50!
7	Topdog/Underdog [Clean] (2002) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Ostensibly a soundtrack to the Pulitzer Prize-winning Broadway play, Topdog/Underdog is really a brief history of 20th century African American music. Hip-hop, blues, and R&B are duly represented. DMX, Jay-Z, Wu-Tang Clan, Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, John Lee Hooker, and James Brown check in with some of their most representative ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $21.53!
8	Martin Scorsese Presents the Blues: Son House (2003) more music like this by Son House This collection spotlights the great Delta bluesman Son House at three distinct points in his life. Included here are three of his 78s issued in the 1930s by Paramount Records, several of the Library of Congress field recordings done by Alan Lomax in 1941-1942, and a sampling of rediscovered 1960s concert pieces, including a riveting version of ... see all copies from $31.20! new only from $31.20!
9	Bad Blood in the City: The Piety Street Sessions (2007) more music like this by James Blood Ulmer For those who were rightfully seduced by James Blood Ulmer's stripped-to-the-bone 2005 Birthright recording, where the great harmolodic jazz, blues, and funk guitarist played a single guitar and stomped on a board and played the blues like a Delta hoodoo shaman, Bad Blood in the City will come as quite a shock. The session was recorded at the ... see all copies from $15.28! new only from $15.28!
10	Blueprint for the Blues (2000) more music like this by Orville Johnson see all copies from $14.49! new only from $14.49!
11	Topdog & Underdog (2002) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The music used in the Broadway play Topdog/Underdog, about two orphaned African-American brothers, is a mixed and disjointed bag, like many such plays that use a variety of music from records in the production. The 12 selections include some important African-American music, but the jumble of blues, soul, jazz, and hip-hop doesn't flow well as a ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
12	Got a Feeling Called the Blues (2003) more music like this by Various Artists From the master compilers at Hear Music comes Got a Feeling Called the Blues, an outstanding collection of blues works from the various masters of the form. The bulk of the performances hail from between the 1930s and the 1960s, with an exception or two as necessary to catch a major performer. Slim Harpo opens up the album with a bit of jumping ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $4.99!
