1	Peter, Paul & Mary (1962) more music like this by Peter, Paul & Mary The debut album by Peter, Paul & Mary is still one of the best albums to come out of the 1960s folk music revival, a beautifully harmonized collection of the best songs that the group knew, stirring in its sensibilities and its haunting melodies, crossing between folk, children's songs, and even gospel ("If I Had My Way"), and light-hearted just ... see all copies from $5.20! new only from $10.00!
2	Ten Years Together: The Best of Peter, Paul & Mary (1970) more music like this by Peter, Paul & Mary For many years, this 13-song collection was the best introduction to Peter, Paul & Mary that one could find. Not only did it contain all of the trio's hits, but it was also, until 2005's Warner/Rhino compilation The Very Best of Peter, Paul & Mary, the closest thing to a cross-section of the group's sound that existed. From the acoustic folk sound ... see all copies from $8.83! new only from $11.16!
3	In Concert (1964) more music like this by Peter, Paul & Mary This double album opens with a then-new Bob Dylan song, "The Times They Are A' Changin'," and closes with the best-known song ever written by Pete Seeger and Lee Hayes, "If I Had a Hammer." That seems to sum up Peter, Paul & Mary, but In Concert offers a lot more than that. The surprises include vignettes in blues and gospel, and, most notably, ... see all copies from $2.60! new only from $20.19!
4	Precious Friend (1982) more music like this by Arlo Guthrie/Pete Seeger Recorded in late summer of 1981, Precious Friend, the second of Arlo Guthrie and Pete Seeger's live collaborations, is pretty much what you would expect. Seeger is his usual folksy self, leading the crowd through a series of folk tunes ranging from the traditional African chant "Wimoweh (Mbube)" to Harry Chapin's "Circles," while Guthrie mixes his ... see all copies from $15.00! new only from $18.81!
5	Every Child Deserves a Lifetime: Songs from the for Our Children Series (2007) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $10.69! new only from $13.53!
6	If I Had a Hammer: Songs of Hope & Struggle (1998) more music like this by Pete Seeger Pete Seeger's repertoire was not limited to songs with specific sociopolitical goals, and the most familiar versions of his most popular tunes were done for Columbia. Still, it's hard to imagine doing better than this compilation of Folkways recordings (most from the late '50s and '60s) if you want evidence of Seeger's importance and skills as a ... see all copies from $15.28! new only from $15.28!
7	Smithsonian Folkways American Roots Collection (1996) more music like this by var art This assemblage of blues, bluegrass, mountain ballads, topical songs, and jazz shows the wide range of American vernacular music, and Smithsonian Folkways' commitment to it. Among the many highlights here are Clarence Ashley and Doc Watson's ragged and yet sleek version of "The Coo Coo Bird," Doug Wallin's creaky and breathless a cappella version ... see all copies from $11.05! new only from $11.05!
8	Greatest Hits (1957) more music like this by The Weavers This is an excellent double-disc compilation of this group's more directly folk-related work from the mid 50s to the mid 60s. Note, however, that these are not the original Weavers recordings of their hits. William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide see all copies from $7.93! new only from $14.22!
9	Greenfields & Other Gold (1997) more music like this by The Brothers Four The 20-song Greenfields & Other Gold is comprised of 1990s recordings by the Brothers Four. The voices of the current lineup are smooth and still rather sweet. Bruce Eder, All Music Guide see all copies from $11.66!
10	Isaac Hayes at Wattstax (2003) more music like this by Isaac Hayes Isaac Hayes was the final act on the Wattstax music festival bill. Although he was the headliner, prior to this collection only the medley of "Ain't No Sunshine/"Lonely Avenue" had previously been made available on the soundtrack album. Over three decades on, this appropriately-titled release features the entire Isaac Hayes at Wattstax (2003). The ... see all copies from $14.11! new only from $14.11!
11 view cover	Carry It On [Bonus DVD] (2003) more music like this by Peter, Paul and Mary Peter, Paul & Mary's multi-decade career is for the most part well summarized, and certainly extremely well packaged, on this four-CD, 90-track box set. As with many such boxes, there's too much on here if you're not a devoted fan, and too much in particular from their post-early-'70s recordings, which take up all of disc four. But it does, of ... see all copies from $56.99! new only from $56.99!
12 view cover	The Essential Odetta (1973) more music like this by Odetta Although the title leads one to believe this is a best-of of sorts, in fact it's a straight pairing of two live concerts from the early '60s that were originally released as Odetta at Carnegie Hall and At Town Hall. It's still a worthy representation of Odetta in good form, accompanied throughout by Bill Lee on bass, and covering a variety of ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
13 view cover	Believe (2003) more music like this by Aaron Neville see all copies from $4.64! new only from $15.98!
14 view cover	Folk Hits of the '60s (2003) more music like this by Various Artists The folk scene of the '60s is often portrayed as self-indulgent and lacking in the humor department. Bob Dylan, Phil Ochs, and Tim Buckley certainly didn't come across as ideal candidates for a Laugh-In walk on! These guys were serious artists with serious things to say -- and things to protest against, too. But there actually was a much lighter ... see all copies from $16.59! new only from $16.59!
15 view cover	The Folk Years [Box Set] (2003) more music like this by Various Artists Time-Life's The Folk Years is a massive survey of folk, pop-folk, and folk-rock from the 1950s and 1960s spread out over eight discs. At 15 songs per CD -- equaling 120 total -- this chronicle offers a healthy sampling of popular folk music covering dozens of known and forgotten singers and bands. The emphasis of the collection is on popular folk ... see all copies from $80.42! new only from $80.42!
16 view cover	Clearwater Classics [Sony Special Product] (1993) more music like this by Pete Seeger see all copies from $5.33! new only from $5.33!
17 view cover	Washington Square (1964) more music like this by The Village Stompers Washington Square is a straight reissue of the 1997 CD reissue of the Village Stompers' 1964 album. It features ten cuts of the former collegiate Dixieland band (which made no less than six LPs in four years at the height of the folk revival!) at its most gimmicky and good-natured. Almost an in-joke, Washington Square, with its title and the band ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $5.72!
18 view cover	Live at Basin St. East (1964) more music like this by Trini Lopez Trini Lopez's fifth Reprise album continued his uninterrupted run in the Top 40 and marked a return to live recording after its studio-bound predecessor, The Latin Album. Lopez had a strong desire to make studio recordings, but Reprise preferred that he stick with what worked -- at least for a while -- although Live at Basin St. East would be his ... see all copies from $6.24! new only from $10.72!
19 view cover	I Enjoy Being a Girl (1966) more music like this by Barbara McNair Quite some production went into this effort, including three different recording sessions, each with elaborate bands. Singer Barbara McNair is heard backed by strings, an expanded small combo that boasts four loud trombones plus other horns and a rhythm section, and a rip-roaring 15-man horn section that makes "On the Other Side of the Tracks" ... see all copies from $12.50! new only from $17.41!
20 view cover	If I Had a Song: The Songs of Pete Seeger, Vol. 2 (2001) more music like this by Various Artists Few songwriters encapsulate the political awareness, ecological activism, anti-war sentiment, the embracing of traditional musical forms and yearning for global peace of the folk movement than Pete Seeger. His music has affected millions, and on If I Had a Song: The Songs of Pete Seeger, Vol. 2 many of his disciples pay tribute to the songs Seeger ... see all copies from $16.21! new only from $16.21!
21 view cover	Sam Cooke at the Copa (1964) more music like this by Sam Cooke For decades, Sam Cooke at the Copa was a frustrating record. One of a handful of live albums by any major soul artist of its era, it captured Cooke in excellent voice, and was well-recorded -- it just wasn't really a "soul" album, except perhaps in the tamest possible definition of that term. Playing to an upscale, largely white supper-club ... see all copies from $16.81! new only from $16.81!
22 view cover	Reunion at Carnegie Hall, 1963 (1963) more music like this by The Weavers The Weavers celebrated their 15th anniversary by performing two concerts -- May 2 and 3, 1963 -- at Carnegie Hall, the site of their historic 1955 comeback concert, and inviting back former members Pete Seeger and Erik Darling as well as introducing new member Bernie Krause. The shows served to reaffirm the status of a group that had fostered the ... see all copies from $11.92! new only from $11.92!
23 view cover	Brothers Four Songbook/The Big Folk Hits (2000) more music like this by The Brothers Four In 2000, reissue giant Collectables took smooth crooners the Brothers Four and put 1961's Songbook and 1963's The Big Folk Hits (both originally released on Columbia) onto one happy disc. Rob Theakston, All Music Guide see all copies from $12.01! new only from $12.01!
24 view cover	Golden Throats: The Great Celebrity Sing-Off! (1988) more music like this by Various Artists This was the compilation that started the whole celebrities-make-bad-records collections that now proliferate like kudzu. If your idea of perverse fun is hearing William Shatner tear up "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds" or "Mr. Tambourine Man," or Leonard Nimoy deadpanning his way through "Proud Mary," then this set is right up your alley. Jack Webb ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $11.11!
25 view cover	Martha Stewart Kids: Playtime (2002) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $2.67!
