1	Singles: The UA Years+ (1989) more music like this by Dr. Feelgood Singles -- The UA Years is a terrific double-album set that chronicles all of Dr. Feelgood's major singles, from 1976's "Roxette" to 1986's "See You Later Alligator." Although the hits-only approach leaves out some major Feelgood songs, Singles remains a first-rate retrospective, and for many years, it was the best Dr. Feelgood collection ... see all copies from $5.98! new only from $8.20!
2	The Final Recordings, Vol. 1: Face to Face (2003) more music like this by John Lee Hooker Final Recordings, Vol. 1: Face to Face combines previously released material from John Lee Hooker with unfinished tracks he was working on before he died. Compiled by the estate of Hooker, with his daughter Zakiya at the helm, the unreleased material leans heavily toward soul-blues united with Hooker's patented electric Delta boogie. "Loving ... see all copies from $10.47! new only from $10.47!
3	Boogie People (1991) more music like this by George Thorogood & the Destroyers George Thorogood can usually be counted on to deliver infectious, rowdy blues-rock, and Boogie People is no exception. Though not quite on a par with Bad To The Bone, this is an unpretentious party album with more than a few assets. The splendor of Chess Records had long been one of Thorogood's primary inspirations, so it shouldn't come as a major ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $5.85!
4	Classic Early Years 1948-51 (2002) more music like this by John Lee Hooker This four-disc box from London's JSP Records collects an astounding 100 songs recorded by John Lee Hooker in Detroit from the years 1948 to 1952, including his first two sides ever, the signature tunes "Boogie Chillen" and "Sally Mae." Most of the tracks here are done solo, with Hooker's ever-present foot-stomping, although a few feature other ... see all copies from $14.85! new only from $26.68!
5	The Complete 50's Chess Recordings (1998) more music like this by John Lee Hooker Hooker bounced around between label affiliations like crazy in the 1950s, recording under almost as many fake names as he did labels during that decade. His two lasting record company hookups occurred with Chess in the early 1950s and Vee-Jay later on in the decade. All of Hooker's Chess masters from that decade (he would later record in the '60s ... see all copies from $21.39! new only from $21.39!

7	John Lee Hooker Plays and Sings the Blues (1961) more music like this by John Lee Hooker A 1961 Chess album restored to digital print by MCA that's filled with 1951-1952 gems from the Hook's heyday. Chess originally bought "Mad Man Blues" and "Hey Boogie" from the Gone label; the rest first came out on Chess during Hooker's frenzied early days of recording, when his platters turned up on nearly every R&B indie label existant at the ... see all copies from $8.95!
8	Blues for Big Town (1995) more music like this by John Lee Hooker This John Lee Hooker set is volume 38 in the Charly Blues Masterworks series, which shows no sign of slowing down. There are 16 tracks recorded between the late 1940s and the early '60s; these sides make up some of the less obvious choices in a best-of -- and that's a good thing. How many more comps do we need with the same versions of "Boogie ... see all copies from $30.79!
9	Face to Face (2004) more music like this by John Lee Hooker see all copies from $4.50! new only from $4.50!
10	Mad Man Blues (1986) more music like this by Dr. Feelgood Lee Brilleaux and Dr. Feelgood sound positively revitalized on Mad Man Blues, a collection of raw versions of blues standards that is their best album since 1977's Be Seeing You. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $16.64! new only from $16.64!
11	25 Years of Dr. Feelgood (1999) more music like this by Dr. Feelgood Distilled from the five-CD Looking Back box set, 25 Years is basically everything you want to know about Dr. Feelgood before you take the major step which we all know is inevitable -- discovering everything you need to know about them. 40 tracks pursue the band from start to finish and beyond -- the final rush of cuts includes material from ... see all copies from $21.42! new only from $21.42!
12	Speeding Thru Europe: Live in Concert (2003) more music like this by Dr. Feelgood This compilation of live recordings from the current incarnation of Dr. Feelgood is representative of what the band is infamous for: original songs and covers from the Chicago blues and early rock & roll heydays, done in stripped down, revved up, pub rocking style. This lineup, with vocalist Pete Gage -- who replaced the late, great Lee Brilleaux ... see all copies from $17.00! new only from $17.00!
13	Mad Man Blues (1974) more music like this by John Lee Hooker In the 1980s, John Lee Hooker's career revitalized with The Healer, which won a Grammy, and concurrent with this release was a resurgence of interest in Hooker as a recording artist. This interest occasioned the reissue of much of the Chess catalog of his early work. This 1984 double album, whose song lineup is almost identical to a 1982 Chess ... see all copies from $12.71!
14	Blues Legend (2006) more music like this by John Lee Hooker If John Lee Hooker hadn't existed, the blues would have had to invent him, because he provides a perfect bridge between prewar country blues from the south and the urban electric blues that took form in Chicago and other Northern cities following the war. He also never met a record contract with an exclusivity clause he felt he needed to honor, ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $11.07!
