1	Studio Sessions: Rare and Unreleased (2003) more music like this by Skip James All of these 19 songs, not released until 2003, come from a 1967 recording session. That might make it the last studio work Skip James did before his death in 1969, although the liner notes, frustratingly, offer virtually no specific details about the session and why it wasn't released for 35 years. This wouldn't rate among James' better ... see all copies from $15.18! new only from $15.18!
2	So Long of a Journey: Live at the Bouder Theater (2002) more music like this by Hot Rize A live show by Hot Rize was always something to get excited about, especially the part of the show where the traditional bluegrass quartet morphed into their humorous alter egos, Red Knuckles & the Trailblazers. This disc, recorded live in 1996, is also something to get excited about, even though Red and his boys never show up. Instead, Hot Rize ... see all copies from $15.61! new only from $15.61!
3	Traditional Ties (1986) more music like this by Hot Rize Traditional Ties is the first album Hot Rize recorded for Sugar Hill, and it is arguably their best effort ever, capturing their skill for both traditional material, originals (Tim O'Brien's "Walk the Way the Wind Blows," which became a Top 10 hit for Kathy Mattea), and progressive bluegrass (Keith Whitley's "You Don't Have to Move the Mountain"). ... see all copies from $15.61! new only from $15.61!
4	Tony Furtado & Dirk Powell (1999) more music like this by Tony Furtado & Dirk Powell A fine album of traditional music, expertly played by these multi-instrumentalists. While they touch on many styles here, their acoustic blues are particularly superb, with Furtado's slide guitar work nicely set against Powell's understated banjo. If their take on "The Sloes of the Penybanc" doesn't bring a lump to your throat, you have no heart. ... see all copies from $15.38! new only from $15.38!
5	Best of Sugar Hill Gospel, Vol. 1: Everytime I Feel the Spirit (1993) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $5.39! new only from $15.18!
6	Sugar Hill Records: A Retrospective [Box Set] (2006) more music like this by Various Artists With over 25 years of quality music in the can, it's certainly not too soon for Sugar Hill Records to take a look back with their box set Sugar Hill Records: A Retrospective. Founder and label head Barry Poss' love for quality, roots-based music has garnered his label a whole mess of respect (and 12 Grammy Awards), and his impeccable taste ... see all copies from $45.17! new only from $45.17!
7	You're Gonna Need That Pure Religion (2002) more music like this by Rev. Pearly Brown In many ways, Rev. Pearly Brown was the perfect itinerant preacher, playing on the street in Macon, GA. Unlike many buskers, however, he wasn't a blues or pop player; his music was strictly sacred, and this album, a reissue of his 1961 album plus a 1974 session from a California radio station, gives a clear picture of his music. Essentially it had ... see all copies from $9.32! new only from $9.32!
8	I'll Fly Away (2001) more music like this by Sister Shirley Sydnor & Erik Trauner see all copies from $14.19! new only from $14.19!
9	Dust on the Bible (1994) more music like this by Bad Livers Originally available exclusively on cassette at Bad Livers live shows, this collection of 11 deeply traditional old-timey and bluegrass gospel songs shows a reverential side to the band's usually slightly goofy twang-a-billy punk folk style. Relying heavily on songs made known by the Stanley Brothers, Bill Monroe, and other traditional bluegrass ... see all copies from $8.28! new only from $10.10!
10	Hard Time: Best of Skip James (2003) more music like this by Skip James Skip James' fame rested initially on a handful of 78's recorded in 1931, and with his eerie falsetto and odd guitar tunings, not to mention his utterly unique piano style, he was that rarest of bluesmen, a maverick performer with a completely original and singular approach to the blues. His rediscovery in the 1960s, with all his skills still ... see all copies from $17.63! new only from $17.63!
