1	Mama He Treats Your Daughter Mean & Other Favorites (1997) more music like this by Ruth Brown Mama He Treats Your Daughter Mean & Other Favorites includes ten R&B classics by Miss Rhythm Ruth Brown originally recorded for Atlantic Records in the 1950s. Brown's hits of the era were so popular that Atlantic was referred to as "the house that Ruth built." The initial excitement these chart-toppers generated are captured on this budget-priced ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.22!
2	The Best of Ruth Brown [Rhino] (1996) more music like this by Ruth Brown For those who want a cheaper and more concise collection of her best Atlantic cuts than the two-CD Miss Rhythm, this superb 23-track CD has the cream of her '50s work, including no less than 19 Top Ten R&B singles. Charting her evolution from her jazzy debut, "So Long," through jump blues and early rock & roll, it also adds a bonus of two ... see all copies from $11.23! new only from $11.23!
3	Definitive Soul (2007) more music like this by Ruth Brown Ruth Brown's jazzy, blues-inflected and undeniably sultry voice almost single-handedly built Atlantic Records into a soul and R&B powerhouse in the 1950s, charting some two-dozen singles for the label between 1949 and 1960, the most notable of which are collected in this two-disc set of her Atlantic material. Brown's "So Long" hit almost out of ... see all copies from $9.29! new only from $9.29!
4	1954-1956 (2007) more music like this by Ruth Brown They didn't call Atlantic Records "The House That Ruth Built" for nothing -- Ruth Brown was one of the first major stars at America's greatest rhythm and blues label, and she produced some of the strongest and sauciest R&B sides of the 1950s. Brown was well into her peak hitmaking period when the material on this collection was cut -- of the 23 ... see all copies from $18.45! new only from $18.45!

Several of her top hits are here, including the original versions of "Mama He Treats Your Daughter Mean," "Teardrops from My Eyes," and "5-10-15 Hours." Although this isn't a bad compilation, Rhino's Miss Rhythm (Greatest Hits and More) is the most ... see all copies from $8.94! new only from $8.94!
7	The Platinum Collection (2007) more music like this by Ruth Brown Ruth Brown was Atlantic Records' first consistent hitmaker and the biggest female star of the label's first decade, and while she didn't cross over to the pop audience the way some of her peers at Atlantic would do in time, "Miss Rhythm" cut enough great sides during her tenure with the label to keep any party respectably rockin' all night long. ... see all copies from $5.96! new only from $5.96!
8	Rock 'n' Roll Bell Ringers (2005) more music like this by Various Artists In the mid- to late-'50s, about a decade before it became a quite successful pop/rock and soul label, Bell Records was putting out lots of budget-priced covers of then-current rock & roll hits. The quite detailed and historically astute liner notes to Rock 'n' Roll Bell Ringers don't exactly say so, but the idea was pretty exploitative: take a ... see all copies from $16.41! new only from $16.41!

It seemed that there were hits every couple of weeks, and this doesn't count the tunes that made it onto jukeboxes regionally through the United States.
