1	Janis Joplin's Greatest Hits [Bonus Tracks] (1999) more music like this by Janis Joplin A solid, if skimpy, ten-track best-of that gathers the most important songs from Janis Joplin's solo career, as well as her stint with Big Brother & the Holding Company. The compilation 18 Essential Songs offers a wider selection, but does not include the original version of "Me and Bobby McGee," which makes Greatest Hits the better purchase for ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.12!
2	Pearl (1971) more music like this by Janis Joplin Janis Joplin's second masterpiece (after Cheap Thrills), Pearl was designed as a showcase for her powerhouse vocals, stripping down the arrangements that had often previously cluttered her music or threatened to drown her out. Thanks also to a more consistent set of songs, the results are magnificent -- given room to breathe, Joplin's trademark ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.28!
3	The Essential Kris Kristofferson (2004) more music like this by Kris Kristofferson The two-CD Essential Kris Kristofferson compilation isn't a balanced retrospective of his lengthy career, heavily emphasizing his 1969-1971 recordings, which in fact comprise all of disc one. And it doesn't represent many of his albums at all (particularly the ones not done for Monument or Columbia), including just one post-1985 track. On the ... see all copies from $9.58! new only from $22.14!
4	The Definitive Collection (2006) more music like this by Jerry Lee Lewis Like any major artist with roughly five decades of recording under his belt, Jerry Lee Lewis has been subjected to plenty of compilations over the years, but Hip-O's 2006 set The Definitive Collection is the first comprehensive single-disc compilation to span his career from his Sun sides in the '50s through his Smash/Mercury singles of the '60s ... see all copies from $10.71! new only from $10.71!
5	Box of Pearls: The Janis Joplin Collection (1999) more music like this by Janis Joplin A limited-edition five-CD box set comprising both albums that Janis Joplin made with Big Brother & the Holding Company (Cheap Thrills and Big Brother & the Holding Company), both of her solo albums (I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama! and Pearl), and a bonus EP with five previously unreleased recordings. Each of these four albums includes ... see all copies from $23.98! new only from $26.28!
6	The Essential Janis Joplin (2003) more music like this by Janis Joplin Columbia has managed to squeeze an impressive, perhaps excessive, number of compilations out of Janis Joplin's relatively slim body of recordings. With this two-CD set, The Essential Janis Joplin, the label's at it again, though it's a good one to get if you don't want to collect all the Joplin releases, and certainly don't want to get the ... see all copies from $8.19! new only from $12.08!
7	All Time Greatest Hits (2003) more music like this by Roger Miller There have been many collections of Roger Miller's hitmaking peak on Mercury over the years, but few have been as comprehensive or as good as Mercury/Chronicle's 2003 CD, All Time Greatest Hits. Spanning 20 tracks over the course of one CD, this contains all the big songs: "Dang Me," "Chug-a-Lug," "Do Wacka Do," "In the Summertime (You Don't Want ... see all copies from $13.34! new only from $13.34!
8	Catch Tomorrow (2006) more music like this by Dale Ann Bradley From the earliest days of bluegrass music, the style has been largely defined by the sound of the male voice -- the high, keening tenor of Bill Monroe, the rougher and richer sound of Ralph Stanley, the silky crooning of Lester Flatt. But women have also been involved since those days (remember that accordion player Monroe had in his band early on ... see all copies from $15.44! new only from $15.44!
9	Live from Austin, TX (2006) more music like this by Waylon Jennings Waylon Jennings' volume in the Austin City Limits series Live from Austin, TX, recorded in 1989, was his second appearance on the program. Before the Jennings' fanatics get all bent out of shape because this was during his MCA period -- hold on a moment: This gig, with its 17 tracks, is a stunner. Jennings was sober, and with MCA, but he hadn't ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.00!
10	LeAnn Rimes (1999) more music like this by LeAnn Rimes Essentially, LeAnn Rimes is a covers album, with one new song ("Big Deal") tacked onto the end, which makes it a return to her roots -- which, in turn, means that it's sort of a salute to her main influence, Patsy Cline. Rimes tackles no less than five songs from Cline's 12 Greatest Hits, plus "Lovesick Blues," which Cline also recorded. It's a ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.12!
11 view cover	Super Hits (2000) more music like this by Janis Joplin Janis Joplin: Super Hits delivers ten of her best-known songs in a budget-priced collection. "Piece of My Heart," "Me and Bobby McGee," "Move Over," "Try," and "A Woman Left Lonely" are some of the highlights of this lean compilation, which provides a concise package of Joplin's hits for the casual listener. Heather Phares, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.99!
12 view cover	18 Essential Songs (1995) more music like this by Janis Joplin 18 Essential Songs is a one-disc distillation of the triple-disc Janis box set. Running 70 minutes, it is a more extensive best-of than the ten-track 1973 Janis Joplin's Greatest Hits album. But it is denied "first pick" status because, unlike that album, it does not contain the hit version of Joplin's only number one single, "Me and Bobby McGee." ... see all copies from $2.64! new only from $9.88!
13 view cover	Pop Music: The Golden Era 1951-1975 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists To commemorate the end of the century, Sony Music assembled the 26-disc box set Sony Music 100 Years: Soundtrack for a Century. The title was imposing, as was the idea behind it -- to chronicle the life of the oldest record label in the music industry. To be clear, Sony Music has not existed for 100 years, but the heart of its catalog, Columbia ... see all copies from $19.75! new only from $19.75!
14 view cover	BareNaked (2002) more music like this by Jennifer Love Hewitt Jennifer Love Hewitt was teen pop before teen pop was cool, but she sat out its glory years of 1999-2001, concentrating on her film career and transition from adolescence to adulthood. Her 2002 musical comeback, BareNaked, is the culmination of her journey to womanhood and, appropriately, it doggedly avoids any comparisons with teen pop. Where ... see all copies from $3.79! new only from $5.27!
15 view cover	Country Croonin' (2002) more music like this by Anne Murray see all copies from $8.98! new only from $9.91!
16 view cover	The Austin Sessions (1999) more music like this by Kris Kristofferson For the follow-up to Moment of Forever, his first set of new original songs in years, Kris Kristofferson decided to record a set of stripped-down new versions of his classic songs. This project, released on Atlantic Records and entitled The Austin Sessions, was a star-studded affair, featuring harmony vocals from Jackson Browne, Steve Earle, ... see all copies from $3.59! new only from $8.29!
17 view cover	Rolling Stone Women in Rock (1998) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $6.49! new only from $21.33!
18	King of the Road [Epic] (1992) more music like this by Roger Miller see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.78!
19 view cover	16 Biggest Hits (2007) more music like this by Kris Kristofferson If you're looking for the basics from singer/songwriter Kris Kristofferson's early-'70s Monument catalog, 16 Biggest Hits fits the bill. Kristofferson's coarse vocals considerably change the dynamic of songs like "Me and Bobby McGee," "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down," "Once More with Feeling," "For the Good Times" and "Help Me Make It Through the ... see all copies from $7.60! new only from $7.60!
20 view cover	The Ultimate Hits of the 70's (2001) more music like this by Various Artists Nice collection of '70s hits, both pop and A.O.R. Features such huge hits as Boston's "More Than a Feeling," LaBelle's "Lady Marmalade," and Michael Murphey's "Wildfire." As you can see from those three highlights, the track listing is pretty diverse, perfect for listeners who want to re-create the experience of listening to the radio before it ... see all copies from $7.98! new only from $12.15!
21 view cover	A Half Century of Hits (2006) more music like this by Jerry Lee Lewis Billed as the "first-ever complete career retrospective," Time Life's triple-disc box set A Half Century of Hits is indeed the first Jerry Lee Lewis compilation to span his entire career, from his timeless Sun sessions in the '50s to his Andy Paley-produced 1995 comeback, Young Blood, for Sire. It even stretches back a little further than that, ... see all copies from $35.02! new only from $35.02!
22 view cover	The Last King of Scotland (2006) more music like this by Alex Heffes Idi Amin will never be remembered as a fantastic humanitarian. Musically, he was known to play the accordion from time to time. However, the soundtrack to the movie based on his life is an extremely enjoyable trip through African music. A wide array of musicians join forces for this record, with Momo Wandel giving a fine performance on the warm, ... see all copies from $14.70! new only from $14.70!
23 view cover	Those Were the Days (2005) more music like this by Dolly Parton Ever since signing with Sugar Hill in 1999, Dolly Parton has been on a hot streak, putting out a steady stream of rootsy albums that found her creatively re-energized. It all started with the all-bluegrass Grass Is Blue, which won a Grammy in 2000, and she worked a similar territory on the subsequent Little Sparrow (2001) and started to branch out ... see all copies from $4.29! new only from $9.52!
24 view cover	Bed of Roses (1971) more music like this by The Statler Brothers In addition to the hit title track, the Statlers' Mercury debut Bed of Roses features the quartet's takes on Kris Kristofferson's "Me and Bobby McGee" and Ernest Tubb's "Tomorrow Never Comes." Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide see all copies from $5.00!
25 view cover	Kristofferson (1970) more music like this by Kris Kristofferson Kris Kristofferson was approaching his mid-thirties and had been kicking around Nashville for several years when he belatedly became an overnight success in 1969-1970. The impetus was "Me and Bobby McGee," which he co-wrote with Fred Foster, who ran Monument Records. Roger Miller cut the song, and his recording peaked in the country Top 20 in ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $6.00!
