1	The Definitive Collection (2006) more music like this by Chuck Berry There have been many, many Chuck Berry compilations released by Chess over the years, but as of the spring of 2006, there was no comprehensive single-disc set in print; there was the double-disc 2005 set Gold, which itself was a retitled reissue of 2000's Anthology, but the classic comp The Great Twenty-Eight was long out of print, and nothing had ... see all copies from $9.61! new only from $9.61!
2	Greatest Hits [Capitol] (1985) more music like this by Johnny Rivers Greatest Hits is a budget-priced, ten-track selection of some of Johnny Rivers' hits, and while there are some essential items missing, it still functions as a good, affordable sampler, featuring such hits as "Memphis," "The Midnight Special," "The Seventh Son," "Secret Agent Man," "Baby I Need Your Loving," "The Tracks of My Tears" and "The Poor ... see all copies from $2.13! new only from $2.13!
3	Original (2000) more music like this by Johnny Rivers see all copies from $3.16! new only from $3.16!
4	Oldies But Goodies, Vol. 1 (1987) more music like this by Various Artists The granddaddy of '50s and '60s rock and pop collections, Oldies But Goodies, Vol. 1 made its way to CD in 1987, when the technology used to transfer music from vinyl to compact disc was still rough enough that the compilation's sound quality suffered. Especially when compared to collections of remastered original recordings, this album's versions ... see all copies from $4.63! new only from $8.85!
5	Golden Era of Rock 'n' Roll: 1954-1963 (2004) more music like this by Various Artists You'd need a wall full of early rock & roll records to get a truly definitive summary of the best sounds from the music's first decade. That qualification noted, this is about as good a sampling of the most important early rock & roll hits and performers as could be stuffed into a three-CD, 62-song set, and deserves the highest rating even if it ... see all copies from $31.68! new only from $31.68!
6	Hail! Hail! Rock 'N Roll [MCA] (1987) more music like this by Chuck Berry This is the soundtrack to a documentary film chronicling a concert held to celebrate Chuck Berry's 60th birthday. The band was led by Keith Richards and featured Berry's regular pianist, Johnnie Johnson, Richards' regular pianist, Chuck Leavell, Rolling Stones sax player Bobby Keys, bassist Joey Spampinato from NRBQ, and drummer Steve Jordan from ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $7.22!
7	16 Biggest Hits (1999) more music like this by Johnny Paycheck 16 Biggest Hits may be missing some noteworthy songs, but it does provide an excellent summary of Johnny Paycheck's Columbia recordings between 1971 and 1978. Since it does contain the majority of his best-known songs -- "(Don't Take Her) She's All I Got," "Someone to Give My Love To," "Slide Off of Your Satin Sheets," "I'm the Only Hell (Mama ... see all copies from $6.89! new only from $6.89!
8	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!
9	The Definitive Rock Collection (2006) more music like this by Foghat When one listens to the absolutely savage tracks that appeared on Foghat's classic debut album -- produced at Rockfield Studios by Dave Edmunds -- one can hear the sound of the entire history of rock music up until that point in time. True, they are all covers -- Willie Dixon's "I Just Want to Make Love to You," Chuck Berry's "Maybellene," and ... see all copies from $17.24! new only from $17.24!
10	Gold (2005) more music like this by Chuck Berry Universal's 2005 release Gold is a repackaged reissue of their excellent 2000 release Anthology, containing the same 50 tracks over two CDs, the same mastering, and the same liner notes. The only difference is the title and the artwork, which are tailored to be part of Universal's ongoing Gold series (which somehow is more extensive than their ... see all copies from $19.52! new only from $19.52!
11 view cover	Good Rockin' Tonight: Evolution of Elvis Presley, Vol. 1 & 2 - The Complete Louisiana (2000) more music like this by Elvis Presley While the music Elvis performed on the "Louisiana Hayride" radio show remains as exciting as it did when he first unleashed it in 1954, the way in which this package was put together proves totally unnecessary. The docu-drama narration provided by original "Hayride" MC Frank Page could have easily been transferred to the liner notes. Instead you ... see all copies from $4.62! new only from $9.47!
12 view cover	Chess Pieces: The Very Best of Chess (2005) more music like this by Various Artists Although Chess Records is generally regarded as a blues label, the imprint, owned and run by brothers Leonard and Phil Chess, actually released a fair amount of R&B, early soul, gospel, nascent rock & roll, and the occasional jazz title, and as this powerful two-disc set shows, the range of classic music that came out of the label's Chicago ... see all copies from $20.49! new only from $20.49!
13 view cover	Ultimate Chuck Berry (2007) more music like this by Chuck Berry Universal's 2007 triple-disc set Ultimate Chuck Berry is an excellent overview of Chuck Berry's Chess recordings from the '50s and '60s containing all the hits and almost all the classic lesser-known tracks, making this one of the best multiple-disc overviews on the market. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $8.44! new only from $8.44!
14 view cover	The Essential George Jones: The Spirit of Country (1994) more music like this by George Jones If any artist cried out for a cross-licensed, multi-label retrospective, it was George Jones. When Epic/Legacy released the double-disc The Essential George Jones: The Spirit of Country in 1994, he had recorded for no less than six labels -- in chronological order: Starday, Mercury, United Artists, Musicor, Epic, MCA (since then, he's added two ... see all copies from $18.69! new only from $20.94!
15 view cover	It Ain't Easy (1984) more music like this by Chris Smither Following two releases for Poppy Records in the early '70s, as well as a third recording that never saw the light of day, Chris Smither finally returned in 1984 with It Ain't Easy. Armed simply with guitar and voice, Smither delivers a dozen tunes (14 on the CD reissue) that embody the best tradition of blues and folk. Whether it's his originals, ... see all copies from $10.98! new only from $10.98!
16 view cover	Johnny B. Goode [Legacy] (2000) more music like this by Chuck Berry It's safe to say that these performances released on Legacy (not the Sony/BMG label) are not the original singles. In fact, they aren't studio recordings at all. This is Chuck Berry live in what sounds like the '70s (it's impossible to know since there is absolutely no information given inside the booklet or on the outside of the cover) playing ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
17 view cover	Rock and Roll Music [Fabulous] (2003) more music like this by Chuck Berry Fabulous' 2003 release Rock and Roll Music is an odds and sods collection of live performances recorded throughout the years by Chuck Berry. Latter-day recordings are emphasized but this does bring out the early live cuts of "I've Changed," "Childhood Sweetheart," "Vacation Time," "How High the Moon" and "Chuck's Jam" yet again, which are more ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.60!
18 view cover	The Great Twenty-Eight (1982) more music like this by Chuck Berry This is the place to start listening to Chuck Berry. The Great Twenty-Eight was a two-LP, single CD compilation that emerged during the early '80s, amid a brief period in which the Chess catalog was in the hands of the Sugar Hill label, a disco-oriented outfit that later lost the catalog to MCA. It has proved to be one of the most enduring of all ... see all copies from $9.00!
19 view cover	Totally Live at the Whiskey a Go Go (1995) more music like this by Johnny Rivers see all copies from $10.14! new only from $10.14!
20 view cover	The Best of 50's Rock (1998) more music like this by Various Artists The Best of 50s Rock is a thoroughly entertaining 14-track collection that contains a wealth of early rock & roll and pop/rock singles, including such classics as "La Bamba," "Peggy Sue," "Great Balls of Fire," "Rebel Rouser," "Be-Bop-A-Lula," "Chantilly Lace," "Blue Suede Shoes" and "Keep A Knockin'." Since all of these tracks are taken from the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $32.80!
21 view cover	Anthology (2000) more music like this by Chuck Berry Falling squarely between the 71-track triple-disc Chess Box and numerous single-album distillations of Chuck Berry's hits, most notably The Great Twenty-Eight, is this 2000-released, chronologically compiled double-disc set. Its 50 tunes include all of Berry's seminal Chess hits plus key album tracks like "Beautiful Delilah," "Jo Jo Gunne," and ... see all copies from $9.96! new only from $9.96!
22 view cover	Ol' Blue Suede's Back (1978) more music like this by Carl Perkins Carl Perkins' 1978 album Ol' Blue Suede's Back was originally planned to be a concept album, narrated track by track by Perkins himself. The way it was originally issued, it felt just like Perkins playing the great rock hits of yesteryear. In the context of the CD that now includes the previously unreleased narration, it is a revelation and a ... see all copies from $8.74! new only from $11.15!
23 view cover	Don't Let the Sun Catch You Crying/Second Album (2001) more music like this by Gerry & The Pacemakers Collectables Records' two-fer combines material from two LPs released by Laurie Records in 1964 that constitute most of the early recordings of Gerry & the Pacemakers, the second beat group to come out of Liverpool and join the British Invasion. Like their predecessors, the Beatles, the Pacemakers had their U.K. recordings parceled out differently ... see all copies from $11.26! new only from $11.26!
24 view cover	Greatest Hits [Silver Star] (2005) more music like this by Chuck Berry It's a budget line collection but Silver Star's 2005 Greatest Hits is a good one, containing all original Chess reocrdings from Chuck's classic years. Not all the hits are here, but a lot of them are and there's not a bad song in the batch making it a good budget-line choice. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $7.32! new only from $7.32!
25 view cover	His Best, Vol. 1 (1997) more music like this by Chuck Berry Strictly focusing on his single tracks in a chronological manner, this first of two volumes in MCA's Chess 50th Anniversary collection hits all the high spots of Chuck Berry's career up to 1958. It also serves as the first compilation to really showcase his development as a songwriter over the first three years of his massive crossover success, ... see all copies from $9.76! new only from $9.76!
