1	Live at Theresa's 1975 (2006) more music like this by Junior Wells Recorded at two separate gigs in January 1975 but not issued until 2006, this captures Junior Wells on-stage at Theresa's, one of the most esteemed Chicago blues clubs. It's a little rawer than most live albums; the sound is good, and Wells is in good form, but his band is a little rough (and, particularly on the tracks with guitarist Sammy ... see all copies from $13.85! new only from $13.85!
2	A Hard Road [Expanded] (2003) more music like this by John Mayall's Bluesbreakers w/Peter Green Some John Mayall fans might be disappointed to find that the radically expanded two-CD edition of A Hard Road actually includes no previously unreleased material, even though it tacks on a whopping 22 additional tracks. It's more a complete document of the Bluesbreakers' recordings with Peter Green, of which A Hard Road was just the most prominent ... see all copies from $19.21! new only from $27.26!
3	Live at Buddy Guy's Legends (1997) more music like this by Junior Wells Backed by a funk-minded, James Brown-influenced band, Junior Wells is in good form on these live recordings from Buddy Guy's Legends in Chicago. Wells (who was 61 when this CD was recorded) really comes alive in front of a live audience, and he's certainly in a very extroverted mood on such familiar material as "Hoodoo Man," "Little By Little" and ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $16.06!
4	Bar Room Preacher (1983) more music like this by Jimmy Johnson Unlike his Delmark sets, almost everything on this set (first issued in France on Black & Blue) is a cover (only the observant "Heap See" boasts original lyrics). Still, "Barroom Preacher" stands as the Chicago guitarist's most satisfying and consistent album, as he deals out gorgeous, shimmering versions of "Little by Little, " "Cold, Cold ... see all copies from $11.98! new only from $21.95!
5	Big Blues Box (2002) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $15.98! new only from $15.98!
6	Tennessee Woman (1969) more music like this by Charlie Musselwhite The addition of jazz pianist Skip Rose gave a new dimension to the ensemble sound, and provided a perfect foil to Charlie's own soloing -- especially on the re-take of "Cristo Redentor," extended to 11 minutes, shifting to double-time in spots. Rose's instrumental, "A Nice Day for Something," is a welcome change of pace, and Musselwhite's "Blue ... see all copies from $11.25! new only from $11.25!
7	Coming at You (1968) more music like this by Junior Wells Another eminently solid outing by the legendary harpist that captures his trademark barroom bravado in a studio setting. The band is quite tight -- Buddy Guy and Lefty Dizz are the guitarists, Douglas Fagan plays sax, and Clark Terry, believe it or not, occupies a third of the trumpet section -- and the set list is dominated by oldies from both ... see all copies from $11.30! new only from $11.30!
8	Live Around the World: The Best of Junior Wells (2002) more music like this by Junior Wells Culled from various live recordings Junior Wells made in his final year or so, Live Around the World: The Best Of is not a "best-of." Instead, it intends to present the legendary Chicago bluesman in a late-career renaissance -- or, as Donald E. Wilcock says in his affectionate liner notes, "This album is not the last gasps of a dying legend." To ... see all copies from $4.44! new only from $13.59!
9	Calling All Blues (2000) more music like this by Junior Wells Following his recorded debut as a leader for States Records, Junior Wells signed with Mel London, producing a number of sides for the producer's Chief and Profile imprints. Perhaps best-known for his spectacular harmonica playing, this period, documented on Calling All Blues, saw Wells emerging as an outstanding vocalist as well. A consummate ... see all copies from $16.06! new only from $16.06!
10	Blues Masters, Vol. 2: Postwar Chicago Blues (1992) more music like this by Various Artists Excellent 18 track compendium of all the major movers and shakers who helped shape the Chicago blues scene in the 50s. Everyone is well represented here, and major stars like Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf stand next to behind-the-scenes geniuses like Earl Hooker and Jody Williams for an interesting, and accurate, blend. Cub Koda, All Music Guide see all copies from $14.99!
11	In My Younger Days (1972) more music like this by Junior Wells Although not an essential release by this fine blues harmonica frontman, there are some tracks on this collection of early recordings that are outstanding. Blues harmonica players will want the set just for the instrumental track "Junior's Wail," which is beautiful harp playing to be sure. Heard as a contrast to the later Wells period where he ... see all copies from $25.00!
