1	The Jimi Hendrix Experience [MCA Box] (2000) more music like this by Jimi Hendrix The Hendrix family continues its reissue campaign with the release of The Jimi Hendrix Experience, a lavish four-disc box set that should be a boon to Hendrix collectors everywhere. With a beautiful 80-page booklet, and purporting to have 46 unreleased tracks, further inspection actually reveals less than meets the eye, at least for collectors.The ... see all copies from $25.46! new only from $51.80!
2	The London Howlin' Wolf Sessions [Bonus Tracks] (1971) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf Too many rock superstars. Bill Dahl, All Music Guide see all copies from $7.56! new only from $8.24!
3	BBC Sessions (1998) more music like this by Jimi Hendrix These are the recordings that Jimi Hendrix made for BBC radio in the late '60s. As such, they're loose, informal, and off-the-top-of-his-head improvisational fun. These versions of the hits "Foxey Lady," "Fire," two versions of "Purple Haze," and "Hey Joe" stay surprisingly close to the studio versions, but the tone of Hendrix's guitar on these is ... see all copies from $7.86! new only from $19.00!
4	Live at Monterey (2007) more music like this by The Jimi Hendrix Experience The Jimi Hendrix Experience's breakthrough appearance at the Monterey International Pop Festival on June 18, 1967, has been committed to disc, in whole or in part, before, starting with the split LP Monterey International Pop Festival, which featured four tracks by Hendrix on one side and performances by Otis Redding on the other. That album was ... see all copies from $11.64! new only from $11.64!
5	The Definitive Collection (2007) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf At six foot three and 270 pounds, Chester Burnett was a bear of a man, but his voice, rough and harsh as broken Delta glass, was what really gave him dimension. A powerful blues shouter out of the Charley Patton mold, Burnett (or Howlin' Wolf, as he came to be known) brought a feral fire to his vocals that made him sound like a gale force ... see all copies from $12.44! new only from $12.44!
6	The Real Folk Blues/More Real Folk Blues (2002) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf The Real Folk Blues series on Chess wasn't really folk, but titled that way, perhaps to gain the attention of young white listeners who had started to get turned on to the blues during the 1960s folk revival. And the Howlin' Wolf volumes in the series were not particularly more folk-oriented than his other Chess recordings, but more or less ... see all copies from $11.64! new only from $11.64!
7	His Best (1997) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf With the exception of a vinyl compilation issued in the early '80s (His Greatest Sides, Vol. 1), there'd never really ever been a single-disc Howlin' Wolf best-of package available. That all changed with this entry in MCA/Chess' 50th Anniversary series, a 20-track retrospective that serves as the perfect introduction to the man and his music, some ... see all copies from $11.02! new only from $17.64!
8	Kiss the Sky (1984) more music like this by Jimi Hendrix see all copies from $1.99! new only from $29.95!
9	The Collection (2000) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf Though there are countless others, this is a pretty neat little compilation of Howlin' Wolf's best moments from various points in his career. Containing 18 tracks for a budget price, many of the true classics are here, from "Evil" and "Smokestack Lightning" to "Spoonful" and "Back Door Man." There are also a coupe of surprises that don't usually ... see all copies from $11.03! new only from $11.03!
10	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Howlin' Wolf (2003) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf While this 12-track collection of Howlin' Wolf's prime Chess material is classic electric blues music, it's a distinctly less worthy deal than the 20-track His Best. The latter anthology has the classic "How Many More Years," "Howlin' for My Darling," "Shake for Me," and "Three Hundred Pounds of Joy," none of which make it onto this briefer scoop; ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
11 view cover	A Tribute to Howlin' Wolf (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Unlike most tribute albums, Telarc's A Tribute to Howlin' Wolf plays it pretty close to the vest, rounding up members of Wolf's backing band -- including guitarist Hubert Sumlin, pianist Henry Gray and drummer Sam Lay -- to support the musicians paying tribute. As a result, the album has a more coherent sound than most tribute records, but that ... see all copies from $10.35! new only from $10.35!
12 view cover	The Best of Howlin' Wolf [Master Classic] (2004) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf see all copies from $9.56! new only from $9.56!
13 view cover	The Blues Anthology (2005) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf see all copies from $9.97! new only from $9.97!
14 view cover	Demon Drivin' Blues Man (1991) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf see all copies from $4.77! new only from $6.99!
15 view cover	Monterey International Pop Festival, June 16-17-18, 1967 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $60.00!
16 view cover	Genuine Mississippi Blues...Plus (1999) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $5.16! new only from $5.42!
17 view cover	The Real Folk Blues (1966) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf This was originally released by Chess in 1966 to capitalize on the then-current folk music boom. The music, however -- a collection of Howlin' Wolf singles from 1956 to 1966 -- is full-blown electric, featuring a nice sampling of Wolf originals with a smattering of Willie Dixon tunes. Some of the man's best middle period work is aboard here; ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $50.68!
18 view cover	Masters (1998) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf If you're expecting these to be Wolf's celebrated Chess recordings, guess again. Despite the hyperbole in the title, what this 16-tracker offers instead is a package divided evenly between tracks from 1971's London Howlin' Wolf Sessions -- a session so uninspired that Eric Clapton has frequently disparaged his participation on it -- and a live ... see all copies from $4.99!
19 view cover	Chess Blues Guitar: Two Decades of Killer Fretwork, 1949-1969 (1998) more music like this by Various Artists This 45-song, two-disc collection is subtitled "two decades of killer fretwork," and never was a set so aptly described. Chess Records was the home to seemingly every hot guitar player in the Chicago area, and many of them make their appearance here. Besides the usual label guitar hotshots (Muddy Waters, Jimmy Rogers, Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, ... see all copies from $21.98!
20 view cover	Blues Biography (2008) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf A very suspect collection of mostly live Howlin' Wolf recordings from the '50s and '60s with some studio fare tossed in for grins. The performances are awesome, but the sound quality ranges from good to nearly awful. The price, though, makes this attractive for collectors and anyone infected with the Wolf virus -- you can never get enough anyway. ... see all copies from $3.91! new only from $3.91!
21	Anthology (1994) more music like this by Jimi Hendrix see all copies from $69.99!
22 view cover	Great (1998) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf Chester Burnett (or Howlin' Wolf, as he came to be known) brought a feral fire to his vocals that made him sound like a gale force hurricane in front of the microphone. But he was far from a loose cannon. He had remarkable control over that voice, and it shows in this selection, although it is a wee bit on the brief and random side. The various ... see all copies from $9.92! new only from $9.92!
23 view cover	Smoke N' Fire (1993) more music like this by Smokey Wilson Transplanted Mississippian Smokey Wilson has made plenty of records, but usually for poorly distributed regional labels. So although he is far from a newcomer, he might as well be a fledgling rookie to the average listener. The songs, aside from the lyrically commendable but awkward "Don't Burn Down L.A.," are primarily his own urgent expositions ... see all copies from $15.04! new only from $15.04!
24 view cover	The Gold Collection (1992) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf see all copies from $24.22!
25 view cover	The Chess Box (1991) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf This three-CD box set currently rates as the best -- and most digestible -- overview of Howlin' Wolf's career. Disc one starts with the Memphis sides that eventually brought him to the label, including hits like "How Many More Years," but also compiling unissued sides that had previously only been available on vinyl bootlegs of dubious origin and ... see all copies from $38.48! new only from $38.48!
