1	Disco Box (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Rhino's four-CD Disco Box is the most impressive disco retrospective yet assembled, featuring 80 tracks and exhaustive liner notes which chronicle the music's history, artists, innovations, and subsequent influence. Like many of the best Rhino anthologies of this sort, The Disco Box is a mixture of acknowledged classics and neglected yet ... see all copies from $8.49! new only from $48.99!
2	The Greatest Hits (1996) more music like this by Tavares As Tavares' greatest-hits CDs go, one might overlook this one or one might not. While all their major hits are here unedited, some choice ones (i.e., "Is It Too Late" and "Remember What I Told You to Forget") are not. Instead, EMI chose some tracks not often available on these sets (i.e., "Slow Train to Paradise" and "The Ghost of Love"). So, ... see all copies from $6.27! new only from $6.27!
3	Greatest Hits (1996) more music like this by Take That Take That disbanded just as they were on the verge of huge success in the U.S., but they never really needed American success -- for all of the early '90s, they were undefeatable on the Brit-pop charts. During their six years together, the band racked up seven number one hits, most of them between 1992 and 1996. Every member of Take That sang, but ... see all copies from $4.49! new only from $11.97!
4	Big Hits of the 70's [EMI-Capitol] (1998) more music like this by Various Artists As a budget-priced collection goes, EMI-Capitol Special Markets' Big Hits of the '70s is quite nice. Many budget-line collections stop at ten or 12 tracks, and occasionally contain remakes. Big Hits of the '70s doesn't skimp -- it has 20 tracks, all in their original hit versions. There might not be many surprises among those 20, but since it ... see all copies from $3.39! new only from $3.39!
5	Never Forget: The Ultimate Collection (2005) more music like this by Take That This 19-song reminder of the biggest British boy band of all time is also a reminder of what Robbie Williams was doing before he became hip. More than ten years divide the demise of the original band from the release of Never Forget, a period during which many people have probably forgotten just how all-pervasive these songs once were. From the ... see all copies from $10.67! new only from $10.67!
6	Take That & Party (1993) more music like this by Take That Released in 1993, Take That & Party was the first album for Take That, and contains four Top Ten British singles. The album can be accurately described as more youthful than their future recordings; "A Million Love Songs" was written by lead singer Gary Barlow at the age of 15, and reached number seven on the music charts. There is a deep ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $12.33!
7	Original Hits (1995) more music like this by Tavares Another year, another Tavares compilation. 1995's Original Hits comes from the Netherlands' budget-oriented Disky label. Many of the hits that are found on just about every other anthology of the group's work -- "Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel," "More Than a Woman," "She's Gone," "The Lover I Never I Had" -- are here, along with 11 other cuts. ... see all copies from $6.59! new only from $6.59!
8	Platinum R&B Party (2000) more music like this by Various Artists Platinum R&B Party delivers just what the title promises: an all-star collection of vintage soul, funk, and disco songs like Kool & the Gang's "Celebration," Cameo's "Word Up," and the Emotions' "Best of My Love." Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing," LaBelle's "Lady Marmalade," the Isley Brothers' "That Lady, Pt. 1-2," and Taste of Honey's "Boogie ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.27!
9	The Best of Tavares [Disky] (1996) more music like this by Tavares The Dutch collection The Best of Tavares more or less lives up to its name, gathering 16 examples of the group's funk/disco sound, including "It Only Takes a Minute," "Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel," "More Than a Woman," "Never Had a Love Like This Before," and "She's Gone." This compilation has a virtually identical (though reshuffled) track ... see all copies from $8.74!
10	Best of Tavares [Collectables] (2003) more music like this by Tavares Yet another Tavares collection (the count is well over a dozen now), Collectables' The Best of Tavares adds to the heap in unremarkable style -- Capitol's 1996 Capitol Gold compilation remains the best and most thorough of the bunch. This disc contains ten tracks from one of the disco era's most popular groups, including "More Than a Woman," ... see all copies from $2.35! new only from $2.35!
11 view cover	WCBS FM: Motown, Soul and Rock N Roll - Soul (2003) more music like this by Various Artists Collectables' 2003 compilation WCBS FM: Motown, Soul and Rock n Roll - Soul is a potent mixture of various strands of soul music woven into a 25-track knockout blow of awesome music and timeless classics. There is fine Memphis soul from Sam & Dave ("Soul Man"), Eddie Floyd ("Knock on Wood"), and Isaac Hayes ("Theme From 'Shaft'"), nasty funk from ... see all copies from $10.79! new only from $10.79!
12 view cover	Anthology (2004) more music like this by Tavares Very few groups need to be anthologized less than Tavares. That's not to say that they don't deserve to be anthologized at all; that's to say that they've been anthologized far too much, often in the form of poorly packaged budget-bin jobs. By the time this two-disc package was released through Capitol's The Right Stuff, the number of Tavares ... see all copies from $16.14! new only from $16.14!
13 view cover	Tavares Live [Classic World] (1999) more music like this by Tavares These same 13 tracks, sequenced differently, first surfaced on Waxworks Records. Live album lovers will enjoy this one; live album haters will not. Live recordings lack the dynamics of studio sessions, and many can only appreciate a live recording if they were at the taping, and that doesn't happen often. Unlike most soul groups who cut live ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
14 view cover	Back 2 Back Hits (1998) more music like this by Tavares & Hot Chocolate Tavares and Hot Chocolate fall into the same category -- bands that seem like one-hit wonders but actually have more to offer than one big single. Tavares actually had a long-running string of Top 40 R&B singles that lasted for nearly a decade, but they're best remembered for two mid-'70s hits -- "It Only Takes a Minute" and "Heaven Must Be ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.05!
15 view cover	Disco Fever: Boogie Wonderland (2006) more music like this by Various Artists The first volume released in Time Life's Disco Fever series, subtitled Boogie Wonderland, features 18 major disco singles, most of which can be found on over 100 other similar compilations. (That's not hyperbole.) In order to pack as many tracks as possible onto the disc, Time Life uses all the radio-edit versions, which are often significantly ... see all copies from $16.23! new only from $16.23!
16 view cover	We Are Family [Time/Life] (2006) more music like this by Various Artists Leave it to Time Life to assemble a compilation that represents a musical era beautifully. It's not that they don't leave things out -- they do -- it's more that as a company, they get the flavor of something and keep it; whether it's on a single disc of soul tunes like this one or a box set, they are consistently excellent. We Are Family is a ... see all copies from $6.98! new only from $13.19!
17 view cover	Greatest Hits of the 70's, Vol. 8 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Greatest Hits of the 70's, Vol. 8 contains a nice cross-section of music from the era, including soul classics by Al Green, Tavares, and the Spinners along with soft rock favorites by Looking Glass, Jim Croce, and the Babys. The sound quality is average, but since these are the original hits, it's worth the bargain-bin price. Al Campbell, All ... see all copies from $6.74! new only from $6.74!
18 view cover	DJ Afrowax Presents: Evolution (2005) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $13.64! new only from $13.64!
19 view cover	Capitol Gold: The Best of Tavares (1996) more music like this by Tavares As prolific as Tavares was during the latter half of the '70s and the early half of the '80s, its compilations outnumber its proper studio albums. It's nearly impossible to consider all of the band's compilations without getting cross-eyed and confused, but Capitol Gold: The Best of Tavares -- released in 1996 -- remained the best of the crop ... see all copies from $8.00!
20 view cover	Disco's Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 (1995) more music like this by Various Artists Disco's Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 is a ten-track budget-line sampler of familiar disco hits from the '70s -- Hot Chocolate's "Every 1's a Winner," A Taste of Honey's "Disco Dancin'," Sylvers' "Hot Line," Tavares' "It Only Takes a Minute" -- that are balanced by funk hits by Brass Construction and soul hits by the O'Jays ("Use Ta Be My Girl"), Bobby ... see all copies from $1.99!
21 view cover	Disco Mania, Vol. 1 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $1.99!
22 view cover	Rock On 1975 (1996) more music like this by Various Artists The sixth volume in Madacy's year-by-year overview of the biggest hits of the '70s and '80s reflects the increasing popularity of funk and disco -- bookended by a pair of Earth, Wind & Fire hits (the chart-topping "Shining Star" and "That's the Way of the World"), the set also includes smashes from LaBelle ("Lady Marmalade"), Van McCoy ("The ... see all copies from $9.23! new only from $9.23!
23 view cover	Soul Train: The Dance Years 1975 (2000) more music like this by Various Artists Rhino Records' Soul Train 1975 is a particularly strong entry in the series, capturing the point when Philly soul and funk were giving way to disco. It's highlighted by classic hits like the Ohio Players' "Fire," AWB's "Pick Up the Pieces," Minnie Riperton's "Lovin' You," and War's "Why Can't We Be Friends," but some of the lesser-known tracks are ... see all copies from $10.76! new only from $10.76!

25 view cover	Take That & Party [Bonus Tracks] (2006) more music like this by Take That Released in 1993, Take That & Party was the first album for Take That, and contains four Top Ten British singles. The album can be accurately described as more youthful than their future recordings; "A Million Love Songs" was written by lead singer Gary Barlow at the age of 15, and reached number seven on the music charts. There is a deep ... see all copies from $3.53! new only from $3.53!
