1	The Classic Early Recordings: 51-56 [Box] (1994) more music like this by Elmore James & His Broomdusters Although a few hardcore electric Chicago blues fans might take offense at the remark, Elmore James' work does not comprise the most varied discography among major bluesmen. So a single-disc survey of his material, whether it covers the first five years or so of his career (as this three-CD anthology does) or a longer period, works better as both a ... see all copies from $20.25! new only from $20.25!
2	King of the Slide Guitar [Snapper/Charly Box Set] (2005) more music like this by Elmore James Mississippi born and raised, Elmore James learned his trade in the Delta in the 1930s, emerging in the early 1950s as the godfather of modern electric guitar, and no guitarist who ever plugged an instrument into an amp is free of his influence. Not only did he create the template for electric slide players everywhere, he also reworked his amps ... see all copies from $28.71! new only from $28.71!
3	Grand Slam (1982) more music like this by Magic Slim & The Teardrops This raw-boned LP captures Slim's unpretentious houserocking sound about as well as any studio set possibly could. Among its highlights: the hard-shuffling "Early Every Morning," and a surreal "Scuffling," and Slim's tribute to his late pal Magic Sam, "She Belongs to Me."

4	King of the Slide Guitar: The Fire/Fury/Enjoy Recordings (1992) more music like this by Elmore James Elmore's last great recordings occurred in the 1960s when he was signed by New York producer/label-owner Bobby Robinson. Unlike many of his contemporaries, James seemingly got better as the years went by and while none of the sides feature a slide guitar anywhere near as nasty as his early Modern and Flair recordings, he's still obviously giving ... see all copies from $6.89! new only from $49.94!
5	The Blues [St. Clair CD & DVD] (2004) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $4.74! new only from $11.47!
6	History of Elmore James, Vol. 1 (198?) more music like this by Elmore James A former radio repairman, Elmore James spent a good deal of time re-wiring his amplifiers, giving him a raw, distorted, and urgent sound on electric guitar that, coupled with his killer slide style, made him the Godfather of modern electric guitar, and few gunslingers can match his intensity or powerful, dirty sound even when armed with a ... see all copies from $8.50! new only from $8.50!

8	Shake Your Money Maker [Collectables] (2002) more music like this by Elmore James Collectables' 2002 release Shake Your Money Maker relies heavily on familiar Fire-era material -- "Dust My Broom," "It Hurts Me Too," "The Sky Is Crying," etc. -- sprinkled with some enjoyable oddities along the way. Overall, it's an entertaining comp and it has enough of the key Elmore material that it will satisfy a lot of casual fans, but there ... see all copies from $10.72! new only from $10.72!
9	Come Go with Me (1989) more music like this by Elmore James You'd be hard pressed to find any substandard Elmore James collection, and while not definitive, there's more than enough on this 24 cut CD to satisfy any blues lover or novice. The guitar and vocal sound of James is well reproduced here, while all but one of the selections are penned by the masterful bluesman. The program starts with some ... see all copies from $5.59!

11 view cover	The Fire and Fury of Bobby Robinson (2000) more music like this by Various Artists In the late 1950s and early 1960s, Bobby Robinson produced a good share of interesting rock, blues, and R&B for his Fire and Fury labels, often mixing the forms together for music approximating a blues-soul blend. This disc has 22 Fire and Fury recordings from 1957-1964, and is not the ideal introduction to the peak of Robinson's achievements, ... see all copies from $14.27! new only from $15.00!
