1	The Complete Studio Recordings (2000) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Although not as consistently magnificent as Hurt's 1928 recordings, the performances the artist recorded for Vanguard in the mid 1960's would be the zenith of many blues artist's entire careers. Songs like the opening "Payday" and "Poor Boy, Long Ways From Home" rank with any folk-blues song ever recorded. This fantastic set collects the three ... see all copies from $19.67! new only from $19.67!
2	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!
3	Today! (1966) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Today is Mississippi John Hurt's first and finest studio release since his "rediscovery" on his Avalon farm by folklorist Tom Hoskins in 1963. Eclipsed possibly only by his earlier 1928 Sessions, this album shows a more mature Hurt picking his way through standards and originals after the Depression years and Hurt's fall into obscurity before the ... see all copies from $13.09! new only from $13.09!
4	And Still We Sing: The Outspoken Collection (2002) more music like this by Holly Near Holly Near has made a career out of speaking out, so calling her collection And Still We Sing: The Outspoken Collection seems an apt one. In the tradition of the '60s protest singer, Near has never been shy about wearing her liberal beliefs on her shirt sleeve. Although some of the material dates back to the '70s, most of it has been recorded ... see all copies from $17.45! new only from $22.34!
5	The Best of Mississippi John Hurt [Aim] (1998) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt did a live 21-song set on April 15, 1965, at Oberlin College in Ohio, a scant two years after his rediscovery in 1963, and a year before his death in 1966. Hurt was remarkably consistent as a performer, whether you listen to his famous 1920s Okeh tracks, his rediscovery studio work for Vanguard Records, or the handful of live ... see all copies from $13.30! new only from $13.30!
6	Way Down in North Carolina (1996) more music like this by Mike Seeger & Paul Brown This collection of traditional mountain tunes allows Mike Seeger and Paul Brown to show off their fine taste in source material as well as their accomplished musicianship on everything from the autoharp to a trump (what's commonly called a Jew's harp). Extensive notes detail the duo's song selections and what each musician played from tune to tune ... see all copies from $14.00! new only from $14.74!
7	Two by Two: The Complete Sessions (1995) more music like this by Dave Young see all copies from $15.49! new only from $15.49!
8	How Late'll Ya Play 'Til?, Vol. 1: Live (1976) more music like this by David Bromberg David Bromberg has been such an effective sideman for so long, it could be possible to not notice what a wonderful entertainer the man is when he is at center stage. How Late'll Ya Play 'Til?, Vol. 1 catches Bromberg and a crack band having a fine time on mostly humorous tunes. Of course, Bromberg does play guitar throughout the album, but the ... see all copies from $13.78! new only from $13.78!
9	Odetta and the Blues (1962) more music like this by Odetta Odetta earned her rep singing traditional folk in the mid-'50s before the American folk revival got underway with the Kingston Trio and "Tom Dooley" in 1958. Unlike many of her contemporaries, however, she had a habit of going her own way from time to time. One of Odetta's most interesting deviations from straight folk, and one that caused a bit ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
10	Back to the Blues (2000) more music like this by Sue Foley see all copies from $7.99! new only from $11.13!
11	The Very Best of the Journeymen (1998) more music like this by The Journeymen This anthology compiles over two dozen sides from the traditional folk trio, the Journeymen. During their brief existence, Dick Weissman (banjo/vocals), Scott McKenzie (guitar/vocals), and future Mamas & the Papas founder, John Phillips (guitar/vocals), created a powerful blend of intricate vocals and ambitious instrumentation. The selections on ... see all copies from $21.53! new only from $21.53!
12 view cover	Chicago Piano, Vol. 1 (1951) more music like this by Jimmy Yancey Jimmy Yancey was one of the pioneer boogie-woogie pianists, but unlike many of the other pacesetters, he had a gentle and thoughtful style that also crossed over into the blues. This Atlantic CD, a straight reissue of the 1972 LP, contains Yancey's final recordings, cut just eight weeks before his death from diabetes. The pianist is in fine form ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.79!
13 view cover	The Folkways Years (1945-1959) (1991) more music like this by Brownie McGhee Folkways Years (1945-1959) is a wonderful 17-track compilation of Brownie McGhee's Folkways recordings. During this time, McGhee became a staple on the blues-folk revival circuit, and accordingly these recordings find the Piedmont bluesman playing in a folk style, which he excelled at. Many of the most powerful tracks are straight from the rural ... see all copies from $7.27! new only from $15.30!
14 view cover	Legendary Kid (1955) more music like this by Kid Ory's Creole Jazz Band One of trombonist Kid Ory's greatest recordings, this consistently exciting CD features trumpeter Alvin Alcorn, clarinetist Phil Gomez, and a strong rhythm section that includes bassist Wellman Braud and Ory's longtime drummer, Minor Hall. These versions of "Mahogany Hall Stomp," "There'll Be Some Changes Made," "At the Jazz Band Ball," and "Shine ... see all copies from $11.00! new only from $13.71!
15 view cover	Rediscovered (1998) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Featuring over 75 minutes and 23 tracks, Rediscovered compiles tracks off Hurt's four Vanguard releases -- Today!, The Immortal Mississippi John Hurt, Last Sessions, and The Best of Mississippi John Hurt. The tracks selected are truly first-rate and give a fine cross-section of Hurt's gently rolling country-blues, including many of his better ... see all copies from $7.72! new only from $14.22!
16 view cover	Don't Play Boogie (2000) more music like this by Bob Hall While Brit piano boss Bob Hall may not be a ubiquitous name to American record buyers or even Yank musicians, in the U.K. his name is synonymous with myth, legend, and greatness. Like percussionist Ray Cooper, Hall has shared stages with everyone from Savoy Brown to Fleetwood Mac and everyone in between, content to contribute his particularly ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
17 view cover	Livin' with the Blues (2000) more music like this by Odetta If any female vocalist should be compared to Leadbelly, it's Odetta. Like Leadbelly, Odetta has long had one foot in folk and the other in the blues. The singer did some of her most compelling work for Vanguard in the '60s, and her Vanguard output is the focus of Livin' With The Blues. Released in 2000, this collection focuses on Odetta's Vanguard ... see all copies from $12.38! new only from $15.65!
18 view cover	Harp, Steel And Guts (2000) more music like this by The Blue Rider Trio Mix in a few measures of folk country blues with Georgia red clay with an occasional rock rhythm and you have the Blue Rider Trio's first album in nine years. They have come a long way, showing greater confidence and ease with the music. They're tough when they have to be, and tender, too. The program is a conglomerate of traditional tunes mixed ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $19.19!
19 view cover	The Best of the Vanguard Years (1999) more music like this by Odetta Odetta began recording in the mid-'50s but her best known work (and easiest to find) is from her early-'60s stay with Vanguard Records, the period that this introductory compilation is drawn from, and these clear, uncluttered and focused tracks make a fine introduction to this dedicated singer. Odetta, like so many other great American singers, ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
20 view cover	Rural Rhythm Bluegrass: 20 Traditional Favorites (2004) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $3.77! new only from $3.77!
21 view cover	Maybe I'll Cry (1983) more music like this by Mama Estella Yancey see all copies from $6.88! new only from $10.76!
22 view cover	Harp: A Time to Sing (2001) more music like this by Various Artists Harp: A Time to Sing features two discs of music commemorating a September 1984 performance by folk artists Holly Near, Arlo Guthrie, Ronnie Gilbert, and Pete Seeger. In particular, the one-time performance was intended to incite awareness about all the social problems plaguing the Reagan era: AIDS, starvation, Reaganomics, the arms race, gay ... see all copies from $20.31! new only from $20.31!
23 view cover	Complete Recorded Works, Vol. 2: 1934-1936) (1997) more music like this by The Stripling Brothers see all copies from $12.25! new only from $14.19!
24 view cover	Live [Vanguard] (2002) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt's vocal and guitar style are always easy on the ears. Unlike a number of Delta stylists with their high-pitched voices and slashing slide guitars, Hurt's approach to country blues is immediately accessible. Recorded (for the most part) at Oberlin College in 1965, Live captures Hurt a couple of years after his rediscovery and ... see all copies from $15.65! new only from $15.65!
25 view cover	Careless Love (2005) more music like this by Erwin Helfer see all copies from $13.22! new only from $13.22!
