1	Greatest Hits [1990] (1990) more music like this by Hank Williams This set, coming along as it did fairly early in the CD era, provides a very solid look at the genius of Hank Williams and is a fine place to start for anyone looking for an introduction. The price it right, sound is OK, and it has pretty much all of the most important material, and some curiosities as well. Arguably there are omissions, but that ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $13.42!
2	Will the Circle Be Unbroken (1972) more music like this by The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band With all due respect to the Byrds and the Flying Burrito Brothers, it took the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band with this album to come up with a merger of rock and country music that worked for both sides and everyone involved. The opening number, "The Grand Ole Opry Song," set the tone for the album, showing that this band -- for all of their origins in ... see all copies from $2.09! new only from $7.00!
3	Original Singles Collection...Plus (1992) more music like this by Hank Williams, Sr. The title of The Original Singles Collection ... Plus is slightly misleading. Although PolyGram marketed the three-disc, 83-song set as a complete collection, it doesn't feature all of the singles Hank Williams released during his lifetime. Several singles Williams released under the pseudonym "Luke the Drifter" as well all of the duets he cut ... see all copies from $23.92! new only from $23.92!
4	Will the Circle Be Unbroken: The Trilogy (2003) more music like this by The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band In 1972, long before O Brother, Where Art Thou? allowed hipsters and intermittent record buyers through the great oak doors of traditional country music, California's Nitty Gritty Dirt Band gathered legends and soon to become legends of country music into a Nashville studio and made the sprawling Will the Circle Be Unbroken. The success of this ... see all copies from $31.93! new only from $41.14!
5	Will the Circle Be Unbroken [Bonus Tracks] (2002) more music like this by The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band With all due respect to the Byrds and the Flying Burrito Brothers, it took the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band with this album to come up with a merger of rock and country music that worked for both sides and everyone involved. The opening number, "The Grand Ole Opry Song," set the tone for the album, showing that this band -- for all of their origins in ... see all copies from $23.97! new only from $23.97!
6	The Best of the Pirates of the Mississippi (1994) more music like this by Pirates of the Mississippi The Best of the Pirates of the Mississippi does an effective job of chronicling the majority of the band's biggest hits from the '90s. Most of the familiar radio tracks are featured, including "Honky Tonk Blues," "Rollin' Home," "Speak of the Devil," "Til I'm Holding You Again," and the bands biggest hit, "Feed Jake." This single disc is a fine ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.97!
7	Sports (1983) more music like this by Huey Lewis & the News Picture This found Huey Lewis and the News developing a signature sound, but they truly came into their own on their third album, Sports. It's true that the record holds together better than its predecessors because it has a clear, professional production, but the real key is the songs. Where their previous albums were cluttered with generic ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $36.11!
8	Bronx in Blue (2005) more music like this by Dion Since his doo wop beginnings in the 1950s, Dion has tried a number of different musical styles, including the rock & roll of his early-'60s solo work and his late-'60s folk-pop phase. He also played the blues, if less prominently (see for example the belatedly released Bronx Blues album), and he again tries the style here in what he bills as a ... see all copies from $9.43! new only from $16.67!
9	Small Town Romance (1984) more music like this by Richard Thompson Small Town Romance was compiled from three warts-and-all live recordings (originally produced for radio broadcast) of Richard Thompson performing solo acoustic in New York City in 1982. The above-mentioned warts (a cough here and there, a very occasional flubbed note) are tiny and difficult to spot, but Thompson was quite aware of them -- enough ... see all copies from $6.77! new only from $11.79!
10	The Complete Hank Williams (1998) more music like this by Hank Williams, Sr. Between 1986 and 1987, Mercury launched its first effort to chronicle Hank Williams' complete recorded works, releasing a series of eight double albums/single CDs which were later collected as a box set. Both the individual compilations and the box set were pulled from the market in the '90s, clearing the way for The Complete Hank Williams, a ten ... see all copies from $74.94! new only from $122.06!
11	24 of Hank Williams' Greatest Hits (1970) more music like this by Hank Williams 24 of Hank Williams' Greatest Hits was originally released as a set of overdubbed recordings, where the spare original recordings were augmented by a fuller band and, occasionally, strings. In the '80s, Mercury reissued the album with the original, undubbed versions of the songs and this version stands as an excellent retrospective of Williams' ... see all copies from $6.24!
12 view cover	40 Greatest Hits (1978) more music like this by Hank Williams Hank Williams' body of work is so large and has been repackaged so many times in so many forms that the notion of creating a definitive compilation almost seems like an impossible goal. However, as a one-stop shopping place for Hank's basic repertoire, 40 Greatest Hits is as good as it gets. While it doesn't include everything, practically every ... see all copies from $17.83! new only from $17.83!
13 view cover	Alone with His Guitar (2000) more music like this by Hank Williams A real treat for Hank-o-philes who really drooled over the few gritty demo recordings that appeared on the extensive box set The Complete of Hank Williams. Leading off with the previously unreleased "Tennesee Border," ten of the 18 cuts here come from early '49 appearances on Shreveport, Louisiana's KWKH; and the rest are demo recordings made to ... see all copies from $4.59! new only from $4.59!
14 view cover	Gold (2005) more music like this by Hank Williams Tall, charismatic, and eschewing rustic hillbilly stage outfits in favor of sleek, tailored Nudie suits, Hank Williams was country music's first true superstar, and he was more than aware that a little motion on-stage drove the ladies crazy. But it is Williams' songwriting that has ensured his legacy more than anything, and his songs -- which ... see all copies from $19.61! new only from $19.61!
15 view cover	Sports [Expanded Edition] (1999) more music like this by Huey Lewis & the News Picture This found Huey Lewis and the News developing a signature sound, but they truly came into their own on their third album, Sports. It's true that the record holds together better than its predecessors because it has a clear, professional production, but the real key is the songs. Where their previous albums were cluttered with generic ... see all copies from $14.65! new only from $14.65!
16 view cover	RCA Country Legends (2000) more music like this by Charley Pride Don't think of this as a definitive hits compilation. Instead, think of it as a perfect introduction to Charley Pride at his peak, proof that he was a genuine country talent, not just a hitmaker. He had a powerful baritone that worked equally well with hard country and country-pop, which may be the reason why he leaned toward the latter as his ... see all copies from $11.80! new only from $11.80!
17 view cover	Nashville Star: The Finalists (2003) more music like this by Various Artists Nashville Star: The Finalists showcases performances from the dozen finalists of USA Network show Nashville Star, country music's answer to American Idol. While the backing provided on each of the performances sounds a bit generic, it does provide a level playing field for the finalists' vocal talents -- or lack thereof. Despite the cookie-cutter ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $2.99!
18 view cover	Kansas City Stomp: The Library of Congress Recordings, Vol. 1 (1938) more music like this by Jelly Roll Morton Pianist/composer Jelly Roll Morton, one of the pioneers of New Orleans jazz, was down and out in 1938 when Alan Lomax found him playing in a Washington D.C. dive. Lomax, realizing that Morton had seen and heard many timeless incidents that would otherwise be forgotten, started interviewing him for the Library of Congress on a wire recorder. ... see all copies from $6.35! new only from $16.21!

20 view cover	Live '72 (2004) more music like this by The Flatlanders If only the "more a legend than a band" that seems to surround the Flatlanders were true and the "legend" were allowed to be what it is. But people keep dragging stuff out of the woodwork, and the three companeros who made that unit up -- Joe Ely, Butch Hancock, Jimmie Dale Gilmore -- have decided that being a band is a better thing and have ... see all copies from $13.68! new only from $13.68!
21 view cover	Music Man/Black on Black (2003) more music like this by Waylon Jennings Waylon Jennings' artistic fortunes started to sink in the late '70s, as the heady peak of the outlaw years gave way to the aftermath where the musical and personal excesses started to catch up with him. He was still a star and still making good music (at least on occasion), but things were becoming erratic, as detailed on this two-fer from BMG ... see all copies from $9.96! new only from $9.96!
22 view cover	Heroes of Country Music, Vol. 2: Legends of Honky Tonk (1996) more music like this by Various Artists In many ways, the honky tonk years of the '40s and '50s represent the real golden era of country music. Fashioned from the early string band and hillbilly sound of Jimmie Rodgers and the Carter Family, honky tonk, with its more overt blues sensibilities, took country music to its rootsy extreme, before the lush production values of the Nashville ... see all copies from $5.28!
23 view cover	Three Hanks: Men with Broken Hearts (1996) more music like this by Various Artists Well, someone had to do it. Three Hanks is exactly that, Hank Williams, Sr., Hank Williams, Jr., and Hank Williams III all together on the same disc, and often on the same track, thanks to the wonders of 21st century digital overdubbing. Produced by Chuck Howard, the dozen songs here, aside from introducing the intriguing talent of Hank III to the ... see all copies from $7.03! new only from $7.03!
24 view cover	There's a Little Bit of Hank in Me (1980) more music like this by Charley Pride Charley Pride salutes Hank Williams on this fine collection by covering Williams' songs such as "I Can't Help It (If I'm Still In Love With You)," "Honky Tonk Blues," "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" alongside an original tribute tune, "There's A Little Bit Of Hank In Me."
