1	Complete Clapton (2007) more music like this by Eric Clapton Disregard the title of this 2007 compilation: there is no way that any double-disc, 36-track set could be called The Complete Clapton, not when Eric Clapton has had a career that's spanned over four decades. This doesn't even attempt to cover as much ground as his landmark four-disc 1988 box set Crossroads, which began with his first band the ... see all copies from $9.96! new only from $21.94!
2	461 Ocean Boulevard (1974) more music like this by Eric Clapton 461 Ocean Boulevard is Eric Clapton's second studio solo album, arriving after his side project of Derek and the Dominos and a long struggle with heroin addiction. Although there are some new reggae influences, the album doesn't sound all that different from the rock, pop, blues, country, and R&B amalgam of Eric Clapton. However, 461 Ocean ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $8.57!
3	Crossroads (1988) more music like this by Eric Clapton A four-disc box set spanning Eric Clapton's entire career -- running from the Yardbirds to his '80s solo recordings -- Crossroads not only revitalized Clapton's commercial standing, but it established the rock & roll multi-disc box set retrospective as a commercially viable proposition. Bob Dylan's Biograph was successful two years before the ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $51.08!
4	Anthology (1972) more music like this by Steve Miller Band Released in 1972, Anthology provides a 16-track summary of the Steve Miller Band's first five albums, distilling their uneven space blues into a tight, effective collection of highlights. These songs are hardly as tuneful or effortlessly catchy as the songs on 1978's Greatest Hits -- apart from "Living in the USA," "Space Cowboy," and "Going to ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $10.79!
5	Reloaded: Greatest Hits (2003) more music like this by Tom Jones Reloaded differs from the slew of Tom Jones compilations available by including songs from his later career, a time he was messing about with contemporary pop artists. The fact that 1999's pop guest star-filled Reload failed to raise an eyebrow in America is a marketing faux pas of monolithic proportions, since it was so ultra-fantastic and ultra ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $13.34!
6	Steal Away (1994) more music like this by Charlie Haden/Hank Jones This is an unusual record. Bassist Charlie Haden and pianist Hank Jones perform a variety of spirituals, hymns and folk songs as duets. The traditional music (which includes such tunes as "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen," "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot," "Sometimes I Feel like a Motherless Child" and "We Shall Overcome") are all performed ... see all copies from $7.48! new only from $13.78!
7	Going Home (2007) more music like this by Morris Robinson see all copies from $23.00! new only from $23.00!
8	A Song Will Rise (1965) more music like this by Peter, Paul & Mary By their fifth album, Peter, Paul & Mary had fallen into a consistency of approach that could be viewed as either dependable or predictable. This had the usual assortment of traditional songs ("Motherless Child," "The Cuckoo"), songs that had first gained an audience during prior folk revivals ("Wasn't That a Time"), a bit of original material, ... see all copies from $7.49! new only from $12.91!
9	Inside Dave Van Ronk (1969) more music like this by Dave Van Ronk Somewhat confusingly titled, this CD reissue includes both the 1962 album of the same name and the Dave Van Ronk, Folksinger LP (recorded around the same time), encompassing 25 tracks in all. Anyway, this is certainly Van Ronk's most enduring work, and indeed one of the few relics of the early-'60s traditional folk boom that holds up well today. ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
10	The Carter Family: 1927-1934 (2002) more music like this by The Carter Family Fans looking for more than ASV/Living Era's Wildwood Flower collection but scared off by Bear Family's massive 12-disc box could comfortably pick up this five-disc budget compilation. At 126 songs, it covers all of their RCA Victor recordings in chronological order, omitting only alternate takes. The remastering isn't necessarily better than other ... see all copies from $27.20! new only from $27.20!
11 view cover	The Best of Mahalia Jackson [1995] (1995) more music like this by Mahalia Jackson The Best of Mahalia Jackson is a 16-track collection featuring many of Jackson's very best recordings -- "God Put a Rainbow in the Sky," "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands," "Walk in Jerusalem," "God is So Good (To Me)," "Just a Little While to Stay Here" -- thereby offering a long overdue single-disc introduction to one of the greatest gospel ... see all copies from $4.95! new only from $11.06!
12 view cover	Winkin', Blinkin' and Nod (2006) more music like this by The Simon Sisters (Lucy and Carl) Nearly a decade before coming into her own as one of the most prominent singer/songwriters of the '70s, Carly Simon hitchhiked around Massachusetts with her sister Lucy as one half of the Simon Sisters. The folk revival was going strong, headed by groups like the Weavers and Peter, Paul & Mary, and the Simon Sisters, what with their matching ... see all copies from $20.84! new only from $20.84!
13 view cover	Spirit of the Century (2001) more music like this by The Blind Boys of Alabama From start to finish this album defies categorical classification. It employs the best of R&B, Afro-beat, folk, and blues while remaining true to the Blind Boys' gospel roots. And with a tasteful selection of material by Tom Waits, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, and Ben Harper, in addition to their usual array of traditional gospel hymns and folk ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $13.16!
14 view cover	From the Cradle (1994) more music like this by Eric Clapton For years, fans craved an all-blues album from Eric Clapton; he waited until 1994 to deliver From the Cradle. The album manages to re-create the ambience of postwar electric blues, right down to the bottomless thump of the rhythm section. If it wasn't for Clapton's labored vocals, everything would be perfect. As long as he plays his guitar, he can ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.00!
15 view cover	Spirituals [RCA] (1999) more music like this by Marian Anderson RCA's Spirituals, a 1999 release by the legendary contralto, is a reissue of a 1956 album, with the addition of nine earlier recordings. It is an excellent compilation of 30 spirituals which displays the rich, expressive, dignified voice of the great Marian Anderson. Usually accompanied only by her longtime pianist Franz Rupp, the album is a ... see all copies from $10.02! new only from $10.02!
16 view cover	Songs of Free Men: Recital (1997) more music like this by Paul Robeson Culled from six concerts given in the 1940s, with most of its tracks previously released on 78-rpm albums in that decade, this disc, as annotator Paul Robeson, Jr., notes, presents Paul Robeson at the peak of his singing career (from age 44 to 49) and re-creates a typical recital. Robeson sings spirituals, folk songs from various countries in ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $11.06!
17 view cover	Poetic Champions Compose (1987) more music like this by Van Morrison If the title didn't tip you off, the opening five-minute jazz instrumental "Spanish Steps" certainly reveals that Poetic Champions Compose is an art record. Of course, Van Morrison has been making art records since at least Inarticulate Speech of the Heart, perhaps Common One, so that shouldn't come as a surprise. What is a bit of a shock is that ... see all copies from $29.43!
18 view cover	Ramblin' (1979) more music like this by Lucinda Williams A collection of blues and country standards by Robert Johnson, Memphis Minnie, Hank Williams, and others. Williams is accompanied only by guitarist John Grimaudo. Re-released by Smithsonian/Folkways in 1991 as Ramblin'. Kurt Wolff, All Music Guide see all copies from $9.20! new only from $15.28!
19 view cover	Folk Songs for Far Out Folk (1958) more music like this by Fred Katz Cellist Fred Katz is best remembered as a sideman with the Chico Hamilton Quintet, Paul Horn, and Pete Rugolo, though on this famous, long unavailable record of his own, he serves as conductor and arranger rather than player. Folk Songs for Far Out Folk consists of his tantalizing, imaginative adaptations of African, Hebrew, and American folk ... see all copies from $13.37! new only from $13.37!
20 view cover	Angels Watching over Me (1998) more music like this by Denyce Graves see all copies from $1.99! new only from $14.55!
21 view cover	A Distant Land to Roam: Songs of the Carter Family (2006) more music like this by Ralph Stanley When Victor Records field engineer Ralph Peer arrived in Bristol, TN, in the summer of 1927, he had a mission to record every rural Southern musician he could find. By the time he left Bristol, Peer had recorded 76 songs by 19 different acts and had set the cornerstones for the future of country music, a genre that had yet to be recognized or ... see all copies from $4.22! new only from $16.59!
22 view cover	Sunset Park (1996) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Although it appears on the surface to be as pedestrian and formulaic as the movie it supports, the soundtrack to Sunset Park shows that it is possible to find something worthwhile within a formula. Like all mid-'90s urban R&B/hip-hop soundtracks, Sunset Park is divided between hardcore hip-hop (2Pac, Ghostface Killah and RZA, Mobb Deep, Onyx), ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.95!
23 view cover	Ballad of the Blues (1959) more music like this by Jo Stafford Jo Stafford's Ballad of the Blues is a concept album showcasing the influence of the blues through a story told in song, primarily in a pop setting with a full orchestra. Accompanied by her husband Paul Weston and his orchestra, along with the backing vocals of the all-male quartet the Starlighters, Stafford explores traditional fare such as "John ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $10.44!
24 view cover	Popular Songbook (2003) more music like this by The Alan Lomax Collection Since Alan Lomax spent his life traveling American and European backroads in search of genuine folk songs, it's difficult to think of his name in conjunction with popular music. Popular Songbook, though, asks the listener to do just that, and the collection's reasoning for doing so is a sound one. A number of songs Lomax gathered on his collecting ... see all copies from $16.45! new only from $16.45!
25 view cover	Bridge Across Forever (2001) more music like this by Transatlantic Transatlantic drummer and founder Mike Portnoy has been bucking and setting trends since the early '90s by immersing himself in progressive rock at a time when grunge and teen bands ruled. His primary band, Dream Theater, raised the bar for musicianship and complexity while helping to establish the progressive metal genre. Portnoy showed his depth ... see all copies from $10.27! new only from $14.56!
