1	Gold (2005) more music like this by Hank Williams Tall, charismatic, and eschewing rustic hillbilly stage outfits in favor of sleek, tailored Nudie suits, Hank Williams was country music's first true superstar, and he was more than aware that a little motion on-stage drove the ladies crazy. But it is Williams' songwriting that has ensured his legacy more than anything, and his songs -- which ... see all copies from $9.98! new only from $16.72!
2	The Shawshank Redemption (1994) more music like this by Thomas Newman see all copies from $9.00! new only from $10.31!
3	The Complete Hank Williams (1998) more music like this by Hank Williams, Sr. Between 1986 and 1987, Mercury launched its first effort to chronicle Hank Williams' complete recorded works, releasing a series of eight double albums/single CDs which were later collected as a box set. Both the individual compilations and the box set were pulled from the market in the '90s, clearing the way for The Complete Hank Williams, a ten ... see all copies from $138.56! new only from $138.56!
4	The Essential Floyd Cramer (1995) more music like this by Floyd Cramer Although it isn't necessarily a definitive retrospective, Essential is the best CD compilation of Floyd Cramer's solo recordings yet assembled. Containing 20 tracks, including his hits "Last Date," "San Antonio Rose" and "Stood Up," the disc captures Cramer's signature stride piano style in all of its glory on a variety of country, pop and R&B ... see all copies from $14.33! new only from $14.33!
5	Honky Tonk Angels (1993) more music like this by Dolly Parton/Loretta Lynn/Tammy Wynette Legend is a hefty title to carry, especially if you're still kicking. The standards are high, the expectations immense. Dolly Parton, Loretta Lynn, and Tammy Wynette are, nevertheless, legends of country music with decades of albums and awards to prove it. And they are very much still kicking on Honky Tonk Angels -- just in case anyone needs a ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.61!
6	LeAnn Rimes (1999) more music like this by LeAnn Rimes Essentially, LeAnn Rimes is a covers album, with one new song ("Big Deal") tacked onto the end, which makes it a return to her roots -- which, in turn, means that it's sort of a salute to her main influence, Patsy Cline. Rimes tackles no less than five songs from Cline's 12 Greatest Hits, plus "Lovesick Blues," which Cline also recorded. It's a ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.12!
7	The Last of the Brooklyn Cowboys (1973) more music like this by Arlo Guthrie In the midst of the singer/songwriter era, Arlo Guthrie chose to become his generation's true folk singer, closer in spirit to Pete Seeger than to James Taylor, more an interpreter than a prolific songwriter. In this role, he kept songs alive that may have been forgotten or were never known, and recorded songs from the pens of his contemporary ... see all copies from $3.25! new only from $12.34!
8	Live at the Opry (1988) more music like this by Patsy Cline In 1988 -- 25 years after Patsy Cline's untimely death at the age of 30 -- MCA released this collection of previously unreleased Grand Ole Opry broadcasts, which span 1956-1962. Even if Live at the Opry had been extremely disappointing, there would have been an audience for this 28-minute CD. Cline, after all, went down in history as one of ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
9	Sweet Dreams (1985) more music like this by Patsy Cline see all copies from $1.99!
10	Timeless: Hank Williams Tribute (2001) more music like this by Various Artists Many tribute albums act as secret promotional tools for the individual labels to push some of their lesser-known artists on the coattails of their heavy hitters. Fortunately, nothing could be further from the truth on Lost Highway's all-star tribute to Hank Williams, Timeless. Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, Tom Petty, Emmylou Harris, and Keith Richards ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $3.99!
11 view cover	Red to Blue (1985) more music like this by Leon Redbone Redbone's conversational style fits anywhere from a coffeehouse setting to a concert to hawking detergent on TV. Here, in this reissue of an album he cut in 1987, he takes on everything from country & western tunes (the opening "Diamonds Don't Mean a Thing" and "Lovesick Blues," which features a dialogue with Hank Williams, Jr.) to old favorites ... see all copies from $5.50! new only from $9.71!
12	24 of Hank Williams' Greatest Hits (1970) more music like this by Hank Williams 24 of Hank Williams' Greatest Hits was originally released as a set of overdubbed recordings, where the spare original recordings were augmented by a fuller band and, occasionally, strings. In the '80s, Mercury reissued the album with the original, undubbed versions of the songs and this version stands as an excellent retrospective of Williams' ... see all copies from $6.24!
13 view cover	The Best of Linda Ronstadt: The Capitol Years (2006) more music like this by Linda Ronstadt The title of Capitol's 2006 collection The Best of Linda Ronstadt: The Capitol Years is a little misleading: this isn't a mere single-disc overview of hits; this double-disc set is a virtual complete recorded works of Ronstadt's stint at Capitol between 1969-1974, encompassing the entirety of four albums -- her 1969 solo debut, Hand Sown..Home ... see all copies from $9.96! new only from $9.96!
14 view cover	Total Yodel! (1998) more music like this by Wylie & the Wild West Show Where Way Out West impressed the listener with wild rockers and stratospheric yodeling, Total Yodel!, ironically, is a fairly low-key affair, heavy with high lonesome ballads and cowboy songs. Indeed, we hear more of Wylie's yodeling skills here, but rather than knocking our socks off, they are a subtle part of the music in the style of Jimmie ... see all copies from $15.10! new only from $15.10!
15 view cover	Jet Propelled: The 1978 Comeback [2 Disc] (2002) more music like this by Carl Perkins This comeback recording by Carl Perkins in 1978 was a huge success in England and in the rest of Europe, where it constituted a rejuvenation of his touring as well as appearances on television and radio (the second disc here is a BBC interview and performance session). In the United States, Ol' Blue Suede's Back, coming as it did nary a year after ... see all copies from $17.41! new only from $17.41!
16 view cover	Original Singles Collection...Plus (1992) more music like this by Hank Williams, Sr. The title of The Original Singles Collection ... Plus is slightly misleading. Although PolyGram marketed the three-disc, 83-song set as a complete collection, it doesn't feature all of the singles Hank Williams released during his lifetime. Several singles Williams released under the pseudonym "Luke the Drifter" as well all of the duets he cut ... see all copies from $23.92! new only from $23.92!
17 view cover	25 All-Time Greatest Recordings: The 4-Star Sessions 1955-1960 (2000) more music like this by Patsy Cline Varese's 2000 collection is billed as 25 All-Time Greatest Recordings but pay attention to the subtitle -- it makes clear that this is "The 4-Star Sessions 1955-1960," recordings made before Patsy Cline signed to Decca and started to have big hits. So, this does not live up to its billing as her "greatest recordings," but that doesn't mean it ... see all copies from $15.20! new only from $15.20!
18 view cover	The Essential Ramblin' Jack Elliott (1970) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott Elliott was the complete folksinger of the 60s, singing and yodeling traditional material derived from folk, country, and blues sources and (especially) carrying on the tradition of Woody Guthrie. This two-pocket set, some of which is taken from a 1965 concert, provides a representative sampling of his repertoire and style. William Ruhlmann, All ... see all copies from $15.18! new only from $15.18!
19 view cover	The Best of Floyd Cramer [RCA] (1970) more music like this by Floyd Cramer Like guitarist Chet Atkins and tenor saxophonist Boots Randolph, pianist Floyd Cramer made a name for himself as a Nashville session player in the '50s and '60s. Helping to forge the slick country-pop of the Nashville sound, Cramer and his fellow studio habituates often hid their incredible talent for the sake of compact and flawless hits. And ... see all copies from $6.95! new only from $12.00!
20 view cover	Best of Hank Williams, Vol. 1 (2002) more music like this by Hank Williams Calling this ten-song collection the "best" of Hank Williams is a stretch. There are certainly better-known songs than most of these. Yet the argument that can be made is that these performances are consistently top notch. And there are bona fide classics in the mix such as "Mansion on the Hill," "Lovesick Blues," "Mind Your Own Business," and "I ... see all copies from $5.18! new only from $5.18!
21	A Retrospective (1977) more music like this by Linda Ronstadt A nice compilation of primarily country-influenced, pre-hit material. Cub Koda, All Music Guide see all copies from $7.49!
22 view cover	Deep in the Night (1978) more music like this by Etta James Originally released on Warners Brothers to scant acclaim in 1978, this Jerry Wexler-produced masterpiece finds James in astounding voice with a batch of great material to apply her massive interpretive powers to. The band, including the cream of the late-'70s Los Angeles session hot-shots (Cornell Dupree, Jeff Porcaro, Chuck Rainey, Plas Johnson, ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $9.56!
23 view cover	Long Gone Lonesome Blues (2002) more music like this by Hank Williams see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
24 view cover	Walkin' After Midnight [LaserLight] (1991) more music like this by Patsy Cline see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.27!
25	Father & Son (1965) more music like this by Hank Williams & Hank Williams, Jr. Although the songs here are first-rate, the sheer brevity of this disc does a disservice to both of these seminal country music figures. Stick with the single-artist compilations. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $8.00! new only from $49.99!
