1	Red Headed Stranger (1975) more music like this by Willie Nelson Willie Nelson's Red Headed Stranger perhaps is the strangest blockbuster country produced, a concept album about a preacher on the run after murdering his departed wife and her new lover, told entirely with brief song-poems and utterly minimal backing. It's defiantly anticommercial and it demands intense concentration -- all reasons why nobody ... see all copies from $4.94! new only from $11.06!
2	I've Got a Tiger by the Tail (1965) more music like this by Buck Owens and His Buckaroos Buck Owens had his share of country hits prior to the release of I've Got a Tiger by the Tail and the hit single that spawned it. But "I've Got a Tiger by the Tail" was Owens' national breakthrough, featuring everything right about his Bakersfield honky tonk sound sweated down to a 2:12 single that proved to be a irresistible piece of crossover ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $12.41!
3	The Instrumental Hits of Buck Owens & His Buckaroos (1965) more music like this by Buck Owens & His Buckaroos When originally issued in July of 1965, no one either noticed or cared that in reality The Instrumental Hits was actually a compilation of tracks already available on early Buck Owens & His Buckaroos albums (except for the band's signature song "Buckaroo," which is unique to this package). Regardless of the ratio of new to recycled material, this ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $12.60!
4	The Lightning Fingers of Roy Clark (1963) more music like this by Roy Clark Originally recorded for Capitol Records in his pre-Hee-Haw days (1963), this is Roy's instrumental album, an all-guitar fest that showcases the country artist's amazing chops. Kicking off with a warp-speed version of "Twelfth Street Rag" that actually gets doubles in tempo by the final chorus, this album features a brace of generic "twistin''' ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $10.66!
5	Maiden's Prayer (2001) more music like this by Lisa Lynne Lisa Lynne is one of the world's leading practitioners of ethnic tribal ambience. That is a different way of describing her music, but it fits. She is internationally famous for her virtuosity on the Celtic harp, on which she has performed original compositions and traditional Irish music from the ancient tribes of Eire. Using Brian Eno's ... see all copies from $3.77! new only from $4.65!
6	Ride With Bob (1999) more music like this by Asleep at the Wheel Asleep at the Wheel devoted its entire career to Western swing, which is commonly known as the music Bob Wills created. They became the standard bearers for the genre, making sure that it was still an integral part of the country music mainstream. Since their entire career feels like a living monument to Wills, it almost seems unnecessary for them ... see all copies from $6.93! new only from $10.96!
7	Foreign Letters (2001) more music like this by Chava Alberstein Like Joni Mitchell and Joan Baez, the Israeli singer/songwriter Chava Alberstein is a durable icon and much-loved role model. She is a searching spirit who weaves ancestral voices from Yiddish pre-war Europe into fresh contexts, moving past mere nostalgia to fashion sounds as full of hope as tomorrow. She is almost exactly the same age as her ... see all copies from $6.01! new only from $16.06!
8	A Phone Call from God (2002) by Ray Reeves see all copies from $4.77! new only from $4.77!
9	The Best of David Houston [Collectors' Choice] (1999) more music like this by David Houston Collectors' Choice Music's 1999 collection The Best of David Houston is easily the most comprehensive collection of Houston's work yet assembled. Spanning 24 tracks over the course of one disc, this contains all of his country Top Ten hits for Epic, from "Mountain of Love" in 1963 to "Can't You Feel It" in 1974. No other collection comes close to ... see all copies from $9.48! new only from $11.21!
10	Anthology 1935-1973 (1991) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys The only comprehensive retrospective of Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys, the double-disc set Anthology 1935-1973 contains material from every label the Playboys recorded for and features the hit version of each of Wills' most famous songs, including "Right or Wrong," "Time Changes Everything," "Corrine, Corrina," "New San Antonio Rose," "Take Me ... see all copies from $12.91! new only from $28.03!
11 view cover	That Dobro Sound's Goin' Round (1987) more music like this by Various Artists That Dobro Sound's Goin' Round is an entertaining collection of 12 songs performed on old-timey dobro. The packaging and sound aren't great, but Hoss Linneman, Deacon Brumfield, Uncle Josh and Bashful Brother Oswald make it worthwhile. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $5.43! new only from $5.43!
12 view cover	Take Me Back to Tulsa [Proper Box] (2002) more music like this by Bob Wills Everyone who's ever explored Western swing knows that Bob Wills' music was revolutionary, but any fan who hasn't listened to the music on disc one of this collection probably doesn't realize how revolutionary it really was. Most modern retrospectives concentrate on music that Wills made after his signature sound was firmly established, but the ... see all copies from $7.35! new only from $7.35!

14 view cover	Legends of Country Music (2006) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys That Bob Wills was one of the architects of American music is a given, but his particular creation -- he didn't name it Western swing, but that's what it came to be called -- did not arise from the dust. Wills, refusing to be restricted, subsumed virtually every genre available to him at the time, from blues to big band, popular song to old-timey, ... see all copies from $35.00! new only from $35.00!
15 view cover	Live at Gilley's (2001) more music like this by Mac Wiseman see all copies from $8.02! new only from $8.02!
16 view cover	Hall of Fame (2000) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys Hall of Fame collects 22 songs from Bob Wills & His Texas Playboy's Liberty years, and includes Billboard chart hits like "San Antonio Rose," "Stay a Little Longer," "Hang Your Head in Shame," "Bubbles in My Beer," and "Ida Red Likes the Boogie." A good collection of the group's late-'50s/early-'60s recordings. Heather Phares, All Music Guide see all copies from $8.00! new only from $11.09!
17 view cover	Be Ready Boys: Appalachia to Abilene (1999) more music like this by Norman Blake & Rich O'Brien Bringing together the musical traditions of the Appalachian Mountains and Texas, Norman Blake and Rich O'Brien convened in Denver, CO, in July of 1998 to collaborate on a beautiful recreation of traditional instrumentals and early country forms. A very loose and impromptu feel pervades the 16 tracks, as Blake provides guitar, six-string banjo, ... see all copies from $9.48! new only from $9.48!
18 view cover	Hull's Victory (1988) more music like this by Dakota Dave Hull see all copies from $6.81! new only from $8.27!
19 view cover	King of Western Swing [JSP] (2007) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys JSP's outstanding four-CD Bob Wills anthology consists of 100 classic Western swing performances recorded between September 1935 and April 1940 in Dallas, Fort Worth, Chicago, and Saginaw. Almost all of these 78-rpm records came out under the name of the Texas Playboys; the only exceptions are two fiddle and guitar duets by Bob Wills and Sleepy ... see all copies from $13.87! new only from $25.43!
20 view cover	Nashville Sound [2004 Reissue] (1968) more music like this by The Nashville Brass The Nashville Brass became hugely successful for blending country and bluegrass standards with an updated attitude and a decidedly nontraditional arrangement for horns. While some purists initially balked, that did not stop Danny Davis, former head of A&R for RCA Victor Records. His concept paid off, as this LP sold into the 400,000 range within ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $20.00!
21 view cover	The Hi-Lo Country (1999) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Oh, it could have been so sweet! A country mix featuring such gems as the yodeling Don Walser making magic with "I'll Hold You In My Heart" and Leon Rausch (of Texas Playboy fame) revisiting "San Antonio Rose." There's even a nice duet between Beck and Willie Nelson on "Driving Nails in My Coffin." But the bottom falls out on the whole thing when ... see all copies from $2.49! new only from $9.34!
22 view cover	Country Classics (2004) more music like this by The Everly Brothers This budget-priced compilation presents ten highlights from the Everly Brothers' brief sojourn on RCA Records in the early 1970s. The brothers didn't have any hits on RCA, but they did show excellent taste in songwriters, and that seems to be what the word "classics" in the title is intended to suggest. Here are songs written by Jesse Winchester, ... see all copies from $3.62! new only from $3.62!
