6	The Story of the Blues [CBS/Columbia] (1995) more music like this by Various Artists When writer and blues scholar Paul Oliver first came along, the genre he specialized in was something of a mystery to the music audience.

7	Blues Jubilee (1994) more music like this by Mary Flower This record will probably be found in the folk section of your store, but don't let that fool you -- it's a dazzling piece of modern acoustic blues, with its feet in the '90s and the '30s and no stretch evident. Flower covers Scrapper Blackwell's "Memphis Town," and Memphis Minnie's "Me and My Chauffeur Blues," and, most impressively, Robert ... see all copies from $49.96!
8	Pottery Pie (1987) more music like this by Geoff & Maria Muldaur The second of just two albums to be released by the easier-going American equivalent of Richard & Linda Thompson (without the brooding gloom and biting irony), this set includes some virtuoso folk-blues performances, as well as the version of "Brazil" made famous in Terry Gilliam's movie of the same name. Though the ten tunes here are all covers, ... see all copies from $40.32! new only from $40.32!

12 view cover	Me & My Chauffeur Blues (2000) more music like this by Memphis Minnie This Australian export brings together 18 classic recordings from the peaks of Minnie's career. Decent transfers of the rare 78s make this a better than average listening experience and what the liner notes leave out in recording dates and other information, it gives back with a good bio and a good understanding of the material. With classics ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $5.99!

14	Blues Classics by Memphis Minnie (1965) more music like this by Memphis Minnie This artist recorded more than 200 different sides between the late '20s and late '50s, not bad considering the hard row she had to hoe as one of the few female guitar pickers in the business, let alone a blues player. Despite the obvious presence of women as blues singers, even the commonly used name for a blues musician, "bluesman," defines a ... see all copies from $76.82!
