1	Greatest Hits (2005) more music like this by Billy Swan Collectors Choice's 2005 release Greatest Hits is the best career overview yet assembled on Billy Swan, the roots rocker who straddled the line between country, old-time rock & roll, and the pop charts in the '70s. Swan is best known for his number one 1974 single "I Can Help," a bouncy throwback to late-'50s rock & roll that owed a lot to Elvis ... see all copies from $11.21! new only from $11.21!
2	Greatest Hits (1991) more music like this by Clyde McPhatter Although many regard the Mercury era as the least distinguished in Clyde McPhatter's great career, he did enjoy a few early '60s hits. These are included in this package. No one will confuse his remake of "Little Bitty Pretty One" or "Ta Ta" with his great Dominoes and Drifters singles, but this album fills in some gaps and will certainly suffice ... see all copies from $8.28! new only from $8.28!
3	Hard to Find 45's on CD, Vol. 2: 1961-64 (1996) more music like this by Various Artists The second installment of the Hard to Find 45's series is, like the first, a wide assortment of Top 40 hits, some of them indeed very hard to find on CD or even hear on the radio. Some of them are not really that hard to find on CD, though this disc (like every one in this series) takes pains to present original 45 RPM single versions, often in ... see all copies from $14.25! new only from $14.25!
4	Breakaway (1974) more music like this by Kris Kristofferson & Rita Coolidge The success of Kris Kristofferson and Rita Coolidge's first duo album, Full Moon, which topped the country charts, went gold, and won a Grammy Award for Best Country Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group for the track "From the Bottle to the Bottom," whetted appetites for its follow-up, Breakaway. But just as Kristofferson's solo album Spooky Lady's ... see all copies from $5.12! new only from $5.27!

6	Live from Austin, TX (2007) more music like this by Kinky Friedman Anyone who was foolish enough to book Kinky Friedman & the Texas Jewboys for an hourlong television appearance in 1975, imagining that the notoriously irreverent and taste-challenged Friedman would make nice for the occasion, probably deserved to have to scramble to fill some air time when Kinky's installment of PBS' roots music series Austin City ... see all copies from $8.24! new only from $10.22!
7	The Best of Billy Swan [Sony International] (2003) more music like this by Billy Swan Epic/Legacy's The Best of Billy Swan is a fine 16-track collection that features highlights from his recordings for Monument, Columbia, and Epic in the '70s and '80s. Swan's unexpected crossover hit, "I Can Help," is here, but the remaining 15 songs veer closer to country, bearing just a slight resemblance to the bouncy pop/rock of the hit. Among ... see all copies from $4.97! new only from $8.77!

9	The Monument Years (2001) more music like this by Arthur Alexander Between his most famous recordings in the first half of the 1960s, and his early-'70s album for Warner Brothers, Arthur Alexander kept sporadically active as a recording artist, putting out half a dozen singles on the Monument and Sound Stage 7 labels. None of these were hits, and as the original 45s are so hard to find, it remained a mysterious ... see all copies from $17.09! new only from $17.09!
10	Mayhem Aforethought (2005) more music like this by Kinky Friedman & The Texas Jewboys Where did they find this thing? Recorded in Sausalito as part of the Live at the Record Plant series, Mayhem Aforethought is Kinky Friedman & the Texas Jewboys at their rawest. The gig was a finishing touch on the band's successful weeklong stand in the Bay Area with Commander Cody. Kinkymania was at its peak in 1973; the band had been playing ... see all copies from $10.81! new only from $10.81!
11 view cover	Cruisin' 1969 (1986) more music like this by Various Artists An instantly recognizable bargain-bin staple since the late '70s, thanks to their colorful comic book covers tracing the romantic life of an Everycouple named Peg and Eddie, the Cruisin' series of discs is built on a brilliant concept: Each disc is devoted to a single year, with hit songs, local commercials, station jingles, and news headlines, ... see all copies from $6.50! new only from $8.94!
12 view cover	Back in Your Life (1979) more music like this by Jonathan Richman & the Modern Lovers Sweet, fun, and honest aptly describe this 1979 long-player by Jonathan Richman. And while some singers badly fumble at being innocently possessed, Richman keeps it all engaging with his unbridled enthusiasm, wit, and crack songs. This was Richman's first solo venture since forming the Modern Lovers in the early '70s, and the newfound freedom ... see all copies from $48.95! new only from $48.95!

17 view cover	Kinky Friedman (1974) more music like this by Kinky Friedman Willie Nelson, an inspired choice, was originally supposed to produce Kinky Friedman's second album, but after some unproductive sessions in Nashville, ABC-Dunhill pulled the plug and sent Friedman into a Los Angeles session with Steve Barri, a Dunhill staff producer whose history ran more toward the Grassroots, the Mamas and the Papas, and Tommy ... see all copies from $18.00!
18 view cover	Golden Classics (1997) more music like this by Billy Swan As part of Collectables' Golden Classics series, Billy Swan is spotlighted on previously released material originally recorded for Monument in the early '70s. The 17 tracks include "Lover Please," "Don't Be Cruel," "Queen of My Heart," and his biggest hit, "I Can Help." Considering the obscurity of CDs available by the singer/songwriter, this ... see all copies from $9.46! new only from $9.46!
19 view cover	They Ain't Making Jews Like Jesus Anymore (2005) more music like this by Kinky Friedman The venerable Bear Family label from Germany begins its Kinky Friedman reissue series with the two-fer reissue of two of the Texas songwriter's recordings, Kinky Friedman released in 1974 on the ABC Dunhill label and Lasso from El Paso from Epic in 1976.

25 view cover	Rainbow Road: The Warner Bros. Recordings (1994) more music like this by Arthur Alexander Arthur Alexander was an artist whose importance and influence sadly outweighed his commercial success; while his first hit, 1961's "You Better Move On," immediately cemented his reputation as a major singer and songwriter in Southern soul-style, working with management who played up Alexander's country leanings at the expense of his blues ... see all copies from $15.38!
