1	The Layla Sessions: 20th Anniversary Edition (1990) more music like this by Derek & the Dominos This three-CD box did a lot of good for rock reissues, though not necessarily for the Layla & Other Assorted Love Songs album. It was the first high-profile reissue to treat rock with the same respect that scholars had long accorded jazz, going beyond the finished tracks to the outtakes and anything else usable that turned up in the vaults. ... see all copies from $22.50! new only from $38.76!
2	His Best (Chess 50th Anniversary Collection) (1997) more music like this by Little Walter As MCA reconfigures their Chess catalog, this 20-track single-disc compilation now takes the place of their original 12-track Best of Little Walter collection, a landmark blues album which had remained in print for over three decades. His Best (Chess 50th Anniversary Collection) reprises ten of those seminal tracks (leaving off the echoey "Blue ... see all copies from $5.58! new only from $9.09!
3	Fess: The Professor Longhair Anthology (1993) more music like this by Professor Longhair The rhumba-rocking rhythms of Roy "Professor Longhair" Byrd live on throughout Rhino's 40-track retrospective of the New Orleans icon's amazing legacy. Most of the seminal stuff arrives early on: "Bald Head," the rollicking ode cut for Mercury in 1950, is followed by a raft of classics from his 1949 and 1953 Atlantic dates ("Tipitina," "Ball the ... see all copies from $28.92! new only from $28.92!
4	The London Chuck Berry Sessions (1972) more music like this by Chuck Berry One-half of this album is a studio recording featuring Ian McLagan and Kenny Jones of the Faces. The other half is a live recording from the Lancaster Arts Festival in Coventry, England, featuring performances of "My Ding-a-Ling" and "Reelin' and Rockin'" that, in edited form, became the first hit singles for Chuck Berry in many years. ("My Ding-a ... see all copies from $7.49!
5	R&B Jukebox Hits 1953, Vol. 1 (2005) more music like this by Various Artists Of the many volumes in this series, this series of jukebox hits form 1953 reveals that it was more than a good year. Can you imagine strolling into your local watering hole back then, dressed for a Saturday night with your companion, checkerboard floor, the smell of tobacco and beer and wine wafting over the joint, greeting your friends and giving ... see all copies from $12.22! new only from $12.22!
6	Texas Cadillac (1993) more music like this by Smokin' Joe Kubek Smokin' Joe Kubek's third Rounder album juggles blues-rock originals with faithful, exuberant covers of Jimmy Reed, Willie Dixon, Muddy Waters and Little Walter Jacobs, among others. Kubek is a good, sometimes captivating guitarist and entertaining singer, if not the greatest pure vocalist, and the band rips through the 11 cuts in a relaxed, yet ... see all copies from $10.78! new only from $15.33!

8	The Best of Little Walter [Chess] (1988) more music like this by Little Walter If there's a blues harmonica player alive today who doesn't have a copy of this landmark album in their collection, they're either lying or had their copy of it stolen by another harmonica player. This 12-song collection is the one that every harmonica player across the board cut their teeth on. All the hits are here: "My Babe," "Blues with a ... see all copies from $21.98!
9	Luther Tucker & The Ford Blues Band (1995) more music like this by Luther Tucker & the Ford Blues Band see all copies from $15.49! new only from $15.49!
10	Mardi Gras in Baton Rouge (1991) more music like this by Professor Longhair Some of the earliest sides from Longhair's rediscovery period (1971-72), featuring a lot of tunes inexorably associated with him through previous versions and a few ("Jambalaya," "Sick and Tired") that weren't. An added bonus is the magical presence of guitarist Snooks Eaglin, whose approach is every bit as singular as the Professor's was. Bill ... see all copies from $11.11! new only from $11.11!

12 view cover	Sad Hours (1990) more music like this by Luther Tucker This album is more of a memorial to late guitarist Tucker (who died in June 1993) than a solo debut (the tracks were recorded three years before his death). Still, it's a very nice, soulful slice of the funkier edge of blues, a good tribute, and showcases some nice guitar work. Steven McDonald, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
13 view cover	Doctor Dunbar's Prescription (1969) more music like this by The Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation The Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation's second album was much the same as their first, offering competent late-'60s British blues, given a slightly darker cast than was usual for the style via Victor Brox's somber vocals. Like their debut, it was dominated by original material, and as on its predecessor, the compositions were rather routine blues-rock ... see all copies from $101.43!

15 view cover	The Best (1958) more music like this by Little Walter If there's a blues harmonica player alive today who doesn't have this landmark album in their collection, they're either lying or had their copy stolen by another harmonica player.

20 view cover	Uncanned! The Best of Canned Heat (1994) more music like this by Canned Heat For most non-completists, this anthology should more than suffice as an apt compact disc retrospective of Canned Heat's releases on Liberty Records. To that end, it's a more or less chronological overview of the combo's LPs, commencing with a trio of tunes from a spring 1967 studio session that predates their self-titled debut (1967). Primary is ... see all copies from $19.40! new only from $19.40!
21 view cover	Mean Old World: The Blues from 1940 to 1994 (1996) more music like this by Various Artists A four-CD, 80-song box set that, in line with similar Smithsonian productions, outlines the history of blues spanning over 50 years, with cuts by major performers who represent its stylistic evolution. The set is stuffed with classics by the likes of Muddy Waters, Louis Jordan, T-Bone Walker, Little Walter, Big Mama Thornton, Howlin' Wolf, Elmore ... see all copies from $100.00! new only from $100.00!
22 view cover	Harpin' on It (1999) more music like this by Arthur Williams His tough harmonica work and shouting vocals show Arthur Williams to be a fine new talent on his first album for Fedora. Earl Simmons, All Music Guide see all copies from $23.01! new only from $23.01!
23 view cover	Late Night Blues (1967) more music like this by James Cotton see all copies from $18.72! new only from $18.72!
