1	Greatest Hits (2007) more music like this by Milli Vanilli see all copies from $8.40! new only from $8.40!
2	Ultimate Isley Brothers (2000) more music like this by The Isley Brothers In effect, The Ultimate Isley Brothers is the definitive single-disc compilation of the Isleys' T-Neck years -- when they reinvented themselves for the '70s as a jam-happy funk-rock outfit. Still, there are a few extras -- the Isley/Jasper/Isley hit "Caravan of Love," which fits this material pretty well, and the old-school Isley classics "Shout ... see all copies from $10.10! new only from $10.10!
3	What It Is! Funky Soul and Rare Grooves (2006) more music like this by Various Artists A righteous undertaking of great magnitude, What It Is! Funky Soul and Rare Grooves trawls through a decade-long stretch of the Warner-distributed archive -- taking in the catalogs of Warner Bros., Atlantic, Reprise, Atco, and smaller nodes like Cotillion, Curtom, Alston, and Jonie -- and pulls up 80 soul/funk truffles, almost all of which were ... see all copies from $56.65! new only from $56.65!
4	The Best of Booker T. & the MG's [Stax] (1986) more music like this by Booker T. & the MG's Somewhat confusingly, this disc is titled identically to a CD on Atlantic that concentrates on their earlier material. This 17-cut disc draws from 1967-1971, and includes three of their four Top 20 pop hits: "Soul Limbo," "Hang 'em High," and "Time Is Tight." This perhaps lacks a bit of the edge of their mid-'60s recordings, concentrating on ... see all copies from $6.82! new only from $6.82!
5	For the Love of You (1995) more music like this by The Isley Brothers For the Love of You is a strong budget-priced summation of the Isleys' work in the '70s -- highlights include the smash "It's Your Thing" and "Fight the Power (Part 1)." Chuck Donkers, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.88! new only from $5.27!
6	Isley Brothers Greatest Hits (197?) more music like this by Isley Brothers see all copies from $4.18! new only from $7.61!
7	The Isleys Live (1973) more music like this by The Isley Brothers The Isleys Live is one of the finest funk/soul live albums ever recorded. The first eight tracks come from club gigs in 1971 and 1972, while the last three are from a 1969 show at Yankee Stadium. The group's biggest and most identifiable hit, "It's Your Thing," is featured twice, each version extremely inspired. But the most interesting thing ... see all copies from $5.27! new only from $8.02!
8	Time Is Tight [1998] (1998) more music like this by Booker T. & the MG's A three-CD, 65-song box set that includes all their hits from 1962 through 1971, in addition to numerous LP tracks and failed singles; the third disc is devoted entirely to previously unreleased live material (most from 1992-94) and rarities. Greatest-hits compilations will serve the needs of all but intense Booker T. and Stax fans. However, if ... see all copies from $2.60! new only from $32.70!
9	The Essential Isley Brothers (2004) more music like this by The Isley Brothers Try as companies might, a perfect anthology framing the famous family of funk still manages to elude even the most fickle of aficionados. While 2003's Ultimate Collection is an expansive look at the group's career, it most certainly isn't as thorough as 1999's outstanding Rhino box set, which is simply too rich to satisfy the curious or casual ... see all copies from $12.49! new only from $15.99!
10	Be True to Yourself: Anthology 1965-1973 (2004) more music like this by Alton Ellis Alton Ellis created a template in the 1960s that subsequent Jamaican singers like Dennis Brown and Gregory Isaacs would follow to a T, combining soulful vocal phrasing, derived in part from American R&B, with hard island rhythms and a bent for romantic material into a surefire way to keep a presence on the charts. Although he is often celebrated ... see all copies from $15.12! new only from $15.12!
11 view cover	It's Your Thing (1991) more music like this by The Isley Brothers Sony Special Products' It's Your Thing collects a bunch of highlights from the Isley Brothers' classic recordings for T-Neck. Although it's simply a haphazard collection of hits and highlights from their various albums, their records of the era were so strong, they can be rearranged in any form and the end result will be quite listenable -- as ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.35!
12 view cover	Addams Family Values (1993) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The "Music From The Motion Picture" soundtrack album (as opposed to the "Original Soundtrack" album, which contains the score) is a sampler of R&B songs, many of which are remakes of oldies, such as H-Town's take on The Isley Brothers' "It's Your Thing" and a rap version of Sly And The Family Stone's "Family Affair" by Shabba Ranks. None of this ... see all copies from $4.93!
13 view cover	Girl You Know It's True (1989) more music like this by Milli Vanilli A wise man, perhaps Giorgio Moroder (or maybe PT Barnum -- they all run together after a while), once said that it was possible to fool all the people all the time (or words to that effect), and if he was around in 1990, he would have used Milli Vanilli's multi-platinum, Grammy-winning, number one debut album, Girl You Know It's True, as proof. ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $34.99!
14 view cover	Funk Sessions (2001) more music like this by Various Artists From the same folks who brought you the Soul Sessions compilation comes this badass double-CD set of pure, greasy funk bliss. These discs are chock-full of the hits (30 in all) that defined this music in an era when the funk had not yet been betrayed by disco. There is nothing fancy about the packaging, as Union Square -- from Cowley, England -- ... see all copies from $14.11! new only from $14.11!
15 view cover	Happy Days, 1960's (2001) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $6.77! new only from $11.36!
16 view cover	Muppets from Space [Soundtrack] (1999) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Muppets From Space boasts a soundtrack with songs by the Dust Brothers, George Clinton, the Commodores, the Getaway People, the O'Jays, Billy Preston and the Isley Brothers, making it a surprisingly hip and soulful collection. Heather Phares, All Music Guide see all copies from $9.68! new only from $47.18!
17 view cover	Zealous Records Presents Soul Sides, Vol. 2: The Covers (2007) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $11.03! new only from $11.03!
18 view cover	It's Your Thing: The Story of the Isley Brothers (1999) more music like this by The Isley Brothers Seldom do compilations, best-of collections, or even box sets capture the big picture on an artist in a way that's as definitive as the music they are attempting to chronicle. There's always something missing: a tape that didn't turn up and no decent vinyl copies around to copy from, or the licensing of a couple of essential tracks from another ... see all copies from $29.52! new only from $29.52!
19 view cover	Move (1998) more music like this by Lucky Peterson Call this Peterson's 'back to my roots' blues album, but it finds him in more retro territory than his previous outings. There's a distinctive Albert King-Freddie King-Albert Collins almost-'70s feel to all the music here and the support of roots players like Johnny B. Gayden, Dennis Chambers and Butch Bonner makes this much more of a ensemble ... see all copies from $9.49!
20 view cover	Original Raw Soul (1996) more music like this by Various Artists When I stumbled across this CD in a "Misc. Soul" bin at a used record store, there was a piece of paper taped to the cover stating "Beware of this one, it is an ass-kicker!" which turned out to be the most accurate description of this sweaty collection of vintage soul/funk grooves. Taken from the "vaults" of Hotpie & Candy Records, Original Raw ... see all copies from $5.79!
21 view cover	Alive! [Bonus Tracks] (2000) more music like this by Grant Green Alive! is the hardest funk LP Grant Green recorded during the later phase of his career, capturing a storming gig at Newark's Cliché Lounge. The sweaty club atmosphere adds something to the music that's difficult to pin down, yet unmistakably present -- a certain organic quality that isn't as noticeable on Green's studio albums of the time. ... see all copies from $9.62! new only from $9.62!
22 view cover	Greatest Hits 1969 (1987) more music like this by Various Artists 20 Greatest Hits 1969 collects some of the year's most memorable pop and rock hits, including B.J. Thomas' "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head," Jaggerz's "Rapper," Clarence Carter's "Patches," the Isley Brothers' "It's Your Thing," and Tommy Roe's "Dizzy." Songs by Percy Sledge, Bobby Sherman, the Grass Roots, and Sheb Wooley complete this ... see all copies from $2.00! new only from $6.73!
23 view cover	The Complete Ann Peebles on Hi Records, Vol. 1 (2003) more music like this by Ann Peebles see all copies from $16.71! new only from $16.71!
24 view cover	Pride [Soundtrack] (2007) more music like this by Original Soundtrack see all copies from $11.17! new only from $11.17!
25 view cover	Super Hits [Sony] (1999) more music like this by The Isley Brothers The Isley Brothers have had a number of greatest-hits compilations over the years, highlighted by Rhino's exhaustive two-volume retrospective The Isley Brothers Story. Since it's a budget-line compilation, Super Hits doesn't come close to matching that glorious set, but it's a surprisingly effective summary of their T-Neck recordings, containing ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
