1	More Music from Ray (2005) more music like this by Ray Charles Ever since Dirty Dancing in the late '80s, it has been an industry custom to follow a hit soundtrack with a sequel a few months after the original turned into a hit. By the mid-2000s, this practice was standard, and labels held back material from the original for the sequel, which would nevertheless pale in comparison to the original since, apart ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $5.85!
2	Pure Genius: The Complete Atlantic Recordings (1952-1959) (2005) more music like this by Ray Charles Ray Charles' seminal recordings for Atlantic have been boxed once before, as the triple-disc 1991 set The Birth of Soul. That box contained 53 tracks, the best moments of what is arguably the best period of Charles' career, but Rhino/Atlantic's 2005 seven-disc sequel, Pure Genius, doesn't bother with merely the highlights: as its subtitle makes ... see all copies from $24.31! new only from $24.31!
3	Moanin' for Molasses (2001) more music like this by Sean Costello The third time's the charm for this young Atlanta bluesman. Not only is Moanin' his most accomplished and evocative album, it is also the one that took him from being a little-known but promising up-and-comer who once backed Susan Tedeschi to a prominent solo artist who landed W.C. Handy award nominations and was featured on the cover of national ... see all copies from $17.04! new only from $17.04!
4	Lifetime (2000) more music like this by Johnnie Taylor Taylor gets honored with a three-CD box set for this career retrospective. And it truly is a career retrospective: it spans 1956-1999 and includes a good deal of material that he did for other labels before and after his lengthy Stax stint. It's true that you have to be a pretty deep Taylor fan to commit to nearly four hours of his music. It's ... see all copies from $23.56! new only from $23.56!
5	The Ray Charles Collection (2005) more music like this by Ray Charles see all copies from $4.99! new only from $6.75!
6	Blue Rain (2007) more music like this by Eric Andersen Eric Andersen got his start as a singer/songwriter just about the time the folk revival went bust in the mid-'60s, when the phrase "singer/songwriter" wasn't familiar, as it is today. Now, some 40 years later, Andersen continues to follow his muse, which includes a deep investment in the blues on the live Blue Rain. Andersen's voice seems to have ... see all copies from $15.50! new only from $15.50!
7	Fortune Tellin' Man (1993) more music like this by Jesse Fortune Team one of the criminally overlooked blues vocalists inhabiting Chicago's West side with a tight young combo sporting a decidedly retro approach and you get this fine album, veteran singer Jesse Fortune's debut set. Guitarist Dave Specter & the Bluebirds admirably back the big-voiced Fortune as he recuts his Willie Dixon-penned USA label classic ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $10.46!
8	The Definitive Soul Collection (2006) more music like this by Ray Charles Rhino's 2006 double-disc set The Definitive Soul Collection is the latest in a long list of Ray Charles compilations from Rhino, and it covers much of the same territory as the others: namely, it's a selection of highlights from his classic Atlantic recordings from the '50s. Since it doesn't have any of Ray's ABC sides of the '60s, it can't quite ... see all copies from $17.24! new only from $17.24!
9	Keep on Moving (1969) more music like this by The Paul Butterfield Blues Band Released in 1969, Keep on Moving was the fifth Elektra release by the Paul Butterfield Blues Band. During a four-year span the group's namesake and leader was the only original member left from their first album in 1965. Morphing in a similar direction as Michael Bloomfield's Electric Flag, this edition of the Butterfield Blues Band prominently ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $9.29!
10	From Broken Hearts to Blue Skies (1999) more music like this by Susannah McCorkle Susannah McCorkle suceeds where others have failed on her latest release for Concord Jazz titled, From Broken Hearts to Blue Skies. Her silky voice wraps around the classic Billy Strayhorn and Duke Ellington "Something to Live For," like a velvet envelope. Filled with emotional yearning, her interpretations render the listener motionless, rapt in ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $9.99!
11 view cover	Lover Boy (1986) more music like this by Johnnie Taylor The title tune was a nice change of pace, part mocking and part confrontational. Otherwise, it was a standard Taylor record on Malaco -- lots of fine, earnest gospel/soul singing with blues underpinnings, expert production and arrangements, and one or two songs that might have become staples in the '60s or '70s. But you can't help feeling that ... see all copies from $12.48! new only from $14.74!
12 view cover	The Beginning 1975 (2002) more music like this by Susannah McCorkle Primarily a collection of early demos, The Beginning 1975 takes listeners back to a time when Susannah McCorkle had yet to become well-known or record for Inner City, Pausa, or Concord Jazz. In fact, these recordings came a year before the jazz/cabaret singer's debut album, The Music of Harry Warren. McCorkle was in her late twenties in 1975, and ... see all copies from $10.31! new only from $10.31!

16	Atlantic Blues 1949-1970 (2007) by Various Artists This limited-edition (3000 copies) box screams old school. From its album sized packaging to the sepia toned photos, rare poster reproductions and pictures of the artists, the four-disc anthology is geared towards collectors with an eye to the past. The first of three sets (soul and vocal groups are the other two genres covered) celebrating ... see all copies from $97.73! new only from $97.73!
17 view cover	Creole Cruiser (1992) more music like this by Lynn August Creole Cruiser is Lynn August's first effort for Black Top Records, and like his pair of records for Maison de Soul, it's rollicking, energetic zydeco. Backed by a band that features Meters bassist George Porter Jr. and keyboardist Sammy Berfect, August tears through a set of New Orleans standards, augmenting the play list with such fine originals ... see all copies from $5.68! new only from $13.99!

19	Larry Gatlin with Family and Friends (1976) more music like this by Larry Gatlin see all copies from $8.00!
20 view cover	Dealin' (2000) more music like this by Joe Beard In the blues world it's OK to be a late bloomer, and when it came to recording, Joe Beard was exactly that. The charismatic singer/guitarist, whose influences range from Jimmy Reed to Lightnin' Hopkins, worked "day gigs" when his kids were growing up and didn't start to build a catalog until he was in his fifties. Blues lovers who heard Beard's ... see all copies from $13.25! new only from $13.25!
21 view cover	Men Are Monkeys, Robots Win (1998) more music like this by Season to Risk see all copies from $1.99! new only from $17.25!
22 view cover	Messing with the Blues (2000) more music like this by Various Artists Atlantic did not record a great deal of blues records, focusing even on its outset on more urban music that could be more comfortably classified as R&B (and later rock and soul). It did its share of worthwhile, though not classic, blues from the late '40s to the early '60s, and 25 examples are collected on this CD. Overall, the Atlantic blues ... see all copies from $17.74! new only from $17.74!

24 view cover	Holding the Losing Hand: Hotlanta Soul, Vol. 3 (2005) more music like this by Various Artists It's only been in recent years that Atlanta, GA, has been given the credit it deserves as a major center in R&B record making, and Birmingham, AL, is still waiting for its day in the hipster sun, but great music has flowed from both cities for years. This collection of rare and unreleased material from the General Recording Corporation archives, ... see all copies from $14.69! new only from $14.69!
