1	Wild Life [Import Bonus Tracks] (1971) more music like this by Wings The irony of the first Wings album is that it seems more domesticated than Ram, feeling more like a Paul 'n' Linda effort than that record. Perhaps it's because this album is filled with music that's defiantly lightweight -- not just the cloying cover of "Love Is Strange" but two versions apiece of songs called "Mumbo" and "Bip Bop." If this is ... see all copies from $8.46! new only from $8.46!
2	Golden Era of Rock 'n' Roll: 1954-1963 (2004) more music like this by Various Artists You'd need a wall full of early rock & roll records to get a truly definitive summary of the best sounds from the music's first decade. That qualification noted, this is about as good a sampling of the most important early rock & roll hits and performers as could be stuffed into a three-CD, 62-song set, and deserves the highest rating even if it ... see all copies from $31.68! new only from $31.68!
3	The Best of Everything But the Girl (1996) more music like this by Everything But the Girl The Best of Everything but the Girl is divided between selections from their early records and remixes of '90s hits such as "Missing." Consequently, the album draws a slightly misleading portrait of their career, yet it still functions as an excellent introduction to the band, since it features many of their best songs, including "Apron Strings." ... see all copies from $5.80! new only from $5.80!
4	Down the Line (1999) more music like this by Bobby Vee Anyone who thinks that Bobby Vee's credentials as a rock & roller were a little shaky back when ought to check out this 1999-vintage album, a latter-day tribute to Buddy Holly that's about the best this reviewer has ever heard. Vee's career started in Holly's shadow, of course, so it's no surprise that he did this album, but that he does it this ... see all copies from $11.39!
5	The Singles+ (2000) more music like this by Sonny & Cher Fifty songs spread among two CDs, various attributed to Cher, Sonny & Cher, and even "Caesar & Cleo," through which we trace the evolution of this duo from a doo wop-influenced pop team into folk-rock and protest mavens, to the media's reigning early-'70s pop/rock team. The sound is very good, and the range of music is almost dizzying, as the ... see all copies from $22.14! new only from $22.14!
6	The Best of Peaches & Herb: Love Is Strange (1996) more music like this by Peaches & Herb The brief, but successful tenure of the original Peaches (Francine Barker) & Herb are recalled in the 16 tracks culled from the duo's 1966-1968 Date Records recordings, including their Top Ten pop hit "Close Your Eyes" and their Top Ten R&B hits "For Your Love" and "When He Touches Me (Nothing Else Matters)." Given the group's love ballad ... see all copies from $5.27! new only from $5.27!
7	Reunion Concert Highlights (2004) more music like this by The Everly Brothers see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
8	Hotel Splendide (1997) more music like this by Tom Newman Fans of Tom Newman's earlier progressive pop albums will undoubtedly be surprised by 1997's Hotel Splendide. A live recording of a dozen old blues and jazz standards plus one Newman composition, 1975's "Ma Song," for good measure, Hotel Splendide sounds on paper like it must be a tired effort by an old muso with no inspiration of his own left. ... see all copies from $15.77! new only from $15.77!
9	Very Best of Buddy Holly [MCA International] (2004) more music like this by Buddy Holly see all copies from $20.59! new only from $20.59!
10	Gonna Shake This Shack Tonight: Ugly and Slouchy (2006) more music like this by The Maddox Brothers & Rose see all copies from $17.16! new only from $17.16!
11	Baby Don't Go (1965) more music like this by Sonny & Cher "Baby Don't Go" was first released as a single in 1964 on Reprise Records but didn't hit until after "I Got You Babe" went to number one on Atlantic Records in the summer of 1965. This was essentially Sonny & Cher's second hit record, charting higher than Sonny Bono's "Laugh at Me" and competing with that tune in September of 1965. But what the ... see all copies from $7.00!
12 view cover	Golden Years (2005) more music like this by The Everly Brothers Golden Years highlights several of the Everly Brothers' classic singles originally released in the '50s and '60s, including "Wake Up Little Susie," "All I Have to Do Is Dream," "Bird Dog," and "Cathy's Clown." While this single-disc set will appeal to the novice, collectors will more than likely already own this material. Al Campbell, All Music ... see all copies from $20.70! new only from $20.70!
13 view cover	In the '50s: Hit, Git & Split (2007) more music like this by Mickey Baker Few rock & roll or R&B guitarists of the '50s and '60s have a more consistently frantic body of work than the great Mickey Baker, though his name isn't nearly as well-known as Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, or Ike Turner. Baker did most of his work as a sideman, and his best-known recordings as a headliner found him playing second fiddle to Sylvia ... see all copies from $15.99! new only from $15.99!
14 view cover	Something Old, Something New (1963) more music like this by The Crickets This CD, containing the complete first album by the post-Buddy Holly Crickets for Liberty (to which they were signed in 1960), augmented by a half-dozen 1963-1964 vintage songs, is actually easier to recommend than the EMI best-of on the band. Most of this CD is straightforward rock & roll, not groundbreaking, but played with a spirit and rawness ... see all copies from $10.36! new only from $10.36!
