1	Dead Presidents (1995) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to the Hughes Brothers' tribute to early-'70s blaxploitation gets the sound of the era right, featuring hits by the O'Jays, the Spinners, Isaac Hayes, Al Green, and Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes, among others. The inclusion of Danny Elfman's instrumental theme interrupts the flow of the album, but for the most part, Dead Presidents ... see all copies from $4.89! new only from $9.10!
2	Gold (2005) more music like this by The Supremes With the plethora of options currently in print, the question of whether listeners need another anthology paying homage to the Supremes is entirely a valid one. With Motown's proclivity to recycle and repackage the same material, it comes as no surprise that Gold gathers together four previously issued greatest-hits compilations, Greatest Hits, ... see all copies from $14.59! new only from $14.59!
3	Putumayo Kids Presents: Sing Along With Putumayo (2004) more music like this by Various Artists From Putumayo's children's division, Sing Along With Putumayo is a decent attempt to make an American roots music album engineered for kids. The bulk of the artists here aren't really from the children's music genre at all, but they sweeten their songs a bit for these recordings. The album opens up with a simple folky piece from Arlo Guthrie, then ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $13.71!
4	The Philly Sound: Kenny Gamble, Leon Huff and the Story of Brotherly Love (1966-1976) (1997) more music like this by Various Artists Along with Thom Bell, Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff defined the sweet, smooth Philadelphia Sound in the early '70s, producing hit records by the O'Jays, Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes, and Joe Simon, among many others. Spanning three discs, The Philly Sound (1966-1976): Kenny Gamble & Leon Huff is a stunning chronicle of the team at their peak, ... see all copies from $99.98!
5	What It Is! Funky Soul and Rare Grooves (2006) more music like this by Various Artists A righteous undertaking of great magnitude, What It Is! Funky Soul and Rare Grooves trawls through a decade-long stretch of the Warner-distributed archive -- taking in the catalogs of Warner Bros., Atlantic, Reprise, Atco, and smaller nodes like Cotillion, Curtom, Alston, and Jonie -- and pulls up 80 soul/funk truffles, almost all of which were ... see all copies from $56.65! new only from $56.65!
6	Collectors' Items (1977) more music like this by The O'Jays Collectors' Items is an O'Jays compilation with a narrow range (basically 1972-76), a contradictory title, and odd sequencing, but a parade of huge hits that make up for any of its other faults. Using two LPs (or one CD, in its digital incarnation) to collect songs from only six albums, the set has plenty of room to anthologize all of the smooth ... see all copies from $3.01! new only from $11.06!
7	Racing to the Rainbow (2007) more music like this by The Wiggles see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.99!
8	Time for Healing (1997) more music like this by Sounds of Blackness Time for Healing signaled the departure of producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis from the Sounds of Blackness camp. Sounds of Blackness -- and particularly group leader Gary Hines -- also abandon the new jack swing motifs of previous albums in favor of a more urban approach. Given the album's 1997 release date, this isn't surprising -- new jack ... see all copies from $4.29! new only from $10.96!
9	Pop Music: The Golden Era 1951-1975 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists To commemorate the end of the century, Sony Music assembled the 26-disc box set Sony Music 100 Years: Soundtrack for a Century. The title was imposing, as was the idea behind it -- to chronicle the life of the oldest record label in the music industry. To be clear, Sony Music has not existed for 100 years, but the heart of its catalog, Columbia ... see all copies from $19.75! new only from $19.75!
10	Hitch (2005) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to Will Smith's 2005 theatrical release of the same name features a brilliant survey of soul and R&B over the past three decades. Nu-soul, new jack, classic soul, Motown, disco, and hip-hop all make appearances in one form or another, with the first three songs being from relatively new artists Amerie, John Legend, and Kelly Rowland ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $7.84!
11 view cover	Speaking in Tongues (2001) more music like this by The Holmes Brothers The sixth album by New York's Holmes Brothers is another all-spirituals set -- though not in the traditional sense of the word. Produced by pop singer Joan Osborne (before she was a superstar, Osborne woodshedded with the Brothers and developed a fine rootsy singing style of her own), who was there in the Manhattan trenches with the band, this set ... see all copies from $3.75! new only from $15.44!
12 view cover	Super Hits (1998) more music like this by The O'Jays It's hardly a complete hits collection, but Super Hits is actually a good choice for a budget-priced disc. "For the Love of Money" isn't here, but "Back Stabbers," "Love Train," "Time to Get Down," "Put Your Hands Together," and "I Love Music" are, along with several album tracks, making it a good bargain for shoppers on a budget. Stephen Thomas ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.98!
13 view cover	Money Train [Original Soundtrack] (1995) more music like this by Original Soundtrack see all copies from $1.99!
14 view cover	Undercover Brother (2002) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to the amusing blaxploitation parody Undercover Brother wisely keeps it to the classics, adding only three new tracks -- the excellent blaxploitation homage "Undercova Funk (Give Up the Funk)" by Snoop Dogg, the solid Lil' J cut "I Need Luv (2002)," and Stanley Clarke's absolutely brilliant "Theme From Undercover Brother" -- to a ... see all copies from $3.69! new only from $10.96!
15 view cover	The Ultimate O'Jays (2001) more music like this by The O'Jays With few viable alternatives, this can be considered the ultimate O'Jays collection only by default, as it focuses exclusively on recordings from the years 1972-1975, cutting off some reasonable and sometimes very well-known singles from before and after that time frame. Still, this was the period that saw the O'Jays at their commercial and ... see all copies from $11.06! new only from $11.06!
16 view cover	Greatest Hits [Sony Special Products] (2000) more music like this by The O'Jays see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
17 view cover	Big Wide Grin (2001) more music like this by Keb' Mo' The rise in the number of titles in the children's music category around the turn of the century was accompanied by a shift in the approach to such recordings. As baby boomers, who remain loyal record buyers, have become parents, the artists who appeal to them have turned to children's music, but it often seems as though the records are still ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $11.06!
18 view cover	The Essential O'Jays [1-CD] (2005) more music like this by The O'Jays Much like 2001's outstanding Ultimate O'Jays release, The Essential O'Jays covers the group during its most fruitful and commercially successful period from 1972-1975. However, the difference between the two compilations is that The Essential offers up four classics from 1976-1978 that weren't included in the Ultimate edition: "Darlin' Darlin' ... see all copies from $11.86! new only from $11.86!
19 view cover	Earth Girls Are Easy [Original Soundtrack] (1989) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Julie Brown's 1989 film Earth Girls Are Easy, starring the flirty singer/comedian, Geena Davis, Jeff Goldblum, and a pre-stardom Jim Carrey and Damon Wayans, is a likable although slight bit of pop fluff, a description that applies to the soundtrack as well. Although a couple of the tracks feel like leftovers added to the disc because someone at ... see all copies from $10.88!
20 view cover	Disco Ball (2005) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
21 view cover	Car Tunes (2000) more music like this by Sugar Beats As the title suggests, Sugar Beats: Car Tunes collects road-tested favorites like "On the Road Again," "Freeway of Love," "Cars," and "She Drives Me Crazy" as sung by the Sugar Beats. "Car Wash," "King of the Road," "Expressway to Your Heart," and "Hitch Hike" are some of the other surprisingly eclectic oldies on this entertaining album, which may ... see all copies from $3.91! new only from $3.91!
22 view cover	Back Stabbers (1972) more music like this by The O'Jays A major turning point for the O'Jays, Back Stabbers took the group to the top of the charts and made them household names in the R&B world. The O'Jays had been paying serious dues since the late '50s, and their perseverance payed off in a major way when the unsettling title song, the infectious "Time to Get Down," and the uplifting "Love Train" ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $6.06!
23 view cover	Great Ladies of Rock & Roll: The '70s (2002) more music like this by Various Artists The title is Great Ladies of Rock & Roll: The 70's, but compiler Joe McCoy of New York oldies radio station WCBS-FM must have gotten the wrong message and thought it was supposed to be "Great Ladies of Disco & Soul: The 70s." True, there are some token ladies who don't fit into those categories -- Melissa Manchester, Bonnie Tyler, Nicolette Larson ... see all copies from $13.91! new only from $13.91!
24 view cover	Billboard #1s: The '70s (2006) more music like this by Various Artists Rhino's 2006 collection Billboard #1s: The '70s rounds up 30 hits that topped a variety of Billboard charts during the '70s. Even if some songs didn't necessarily reach number one on the pop charts, each one of these tunes was a major pop hit, or at least has remained in the public consciousness over the last 30 years. As such, there aren't many ... see all copies from $17.24! new only from $17.24!
25 view cover	Reggae Pulse: The Heartbeat of Jamaica (2002) more music like this by Various Artists A fine party disc with an unbeatable selection of Jamaican rocksteady and roots reggae hits ranging from Millie Small's "My Boy Lollipop" to the Melodians' reverent "Rivers of Babylon," and including sides by Bob Marley ("Soul Shakedown Party," "Lively Up Yourself"), Toots & the Maytals ("Pressure Drop"), and the Ethiopians ("Train to Skaville"), ... see all copies from $10.47! new only from $10.47!
