1	Amarantine (2005) more music like this by Enya Second only to U2 as the most successful Irish recording artist of all time, Enya has built an empire out of multi-tracking her beautiful voice over the same keyboard patches that appeared on her post-Clannad debut since 1987. It's an empire that has progressed at a slow burn, peaking in 2000 and 2001 with her chart-topping ballad and unofficial ... see all copies from $5.50! new only from $16.25!
2	Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003) more music like this by Klaus Badelt The soundtrack for Pirates of the Caribbean was originally composed by Alan Silvestri, who left the project prior to the film's release. Credited to Klaus Badelt, a protégé of Hans Zimmer, it was hastily assembled at the last minute, resulting in a paint-by-numbers exercise in big studio fluff that required the work of several unnamed composers. ... see all copies from $9.76! new only from $9.76!
3	Countdown to Ecstasy (1973) more music like this by Steely Dan Can't Buy a Thrill became an unexpected hit, and as a response, Donald Fagen became the group's full-time lead vocalist, and he and Walter Becker acted like Steely Dan was a rock & roll band for the group's second album, Countdown to Ecstasy. The loud guitars and pronounced backbeat of "Bodhisattva," "Show Biz Kids," and "My Old School" camouflage ... see all copies from $7.83! new only from $7.83!
4	Sweet Old World (1992) more music like this by Lucinda Williams After seemingly coming out of nowhere to be hailed as a major songwriter and roots music stylist, it took Lucinda Williams four years to prepare the follow-up to her masterful 1988 eponymous album. When it finally arrived, Sweet Old World proved to be every bit the equal of its predecessor, if not even better. Although Sweet Old World isn't really ... see all copies from $3.86! new only from $6.89!
5	The Hour of Bewilderbeast (2000) more music like this by Badly Drawn Boy What has the field of lo-fi slacker pop come to when faced by an LP as ambitious and entertaining as Badly Drawn Boy's The Hour of Bewilderbeast? Despite all attempts to sabotage his songwriting and production with innumerable experimental tidbits, songs within a song, and (seemingly) tossed-off arrangements, Damon Gough has to face the fact that ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.76!
6	Greatest Hits [MCA] (1993) more music like this by Tommy Roe Tommy Roe's Greatest Hits on MCA is a fine 18-track collection that serves up the bubblegum icon's best songs and very little filler. Unlike a large number of Roe collections, this disc contains all original recordings made during his prime. And what a prime it was! Between 1962 and 1969, Roe was responsible for some of the brightest, snappiest ... see all copies from $3.75! new only from $3.75!
7	Rearviewmirror: Greatest Hits 1991-2003 (2004) more music like this by Pearl Jam Joe Strummer once claimed that the Clash had stardom in their hands, then they dropped it on the floor and broke it. Pearl Jam took the opposite tact: they purposely left stardom behind. Nirvana may have ushered in the age of grunge and alternative rock, but Pearl Jam were the biggest band in the land during the first half of the '90s, dominating ... see all copies from $11.18! new only from $11.18!
8	The Best of Roxy Music (2001) more music like this by Roxy Music Released to herald a reunion of the band and superseding several out-of-print predecessors, The Best of Roxy Music is an excellent summary of the group's hits and album highlights between 1972 and 1982. There are really two editions of Roxy Music, the glam rock unit that achieved widespread U.K. success from 1972 to 1975, and the more polished one ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.86!
9	Don't Fear the Reaper: The Best of Blue Öyster Cult (2000) more music like this by Blue Öyster Cult With 16 cuts spanning 1971-1983, this is a briefer, single-disc counterpart to the 1995 double-CD Workshop of the Telescopes compilation. This has taken care -- perhaps too much care -- to draw evenly from all of their first nine studio albums, with one or two songs from each (except for Spectres, which is represented by three). The early years ... see all copies from $3.44! new only from $7.47!
10	Nat King Cole [Capitol] (1992) more music like this by Nat King Cole For an overview of Nat "King" Cole's years as a remarkably popular singer, this four-CD box would be difficult to top. Containing 100 songs spanning a 20-year period, this box has virtually all of Cole's hits, some of his best jazz sides, and more than its share of variety, including a humorous previously unreleased version of "Mr. Cole Won't Rock ... see all copies from $37.77! new only from $39.94!
11 view cover	Lucy Pearl (2000) more music like this by Lucy Pearl For many years, there has been a glut of slick, soulless R&B and hip-hop where talent is obscured by the canned packaging. Members of three bands who broke from that stale scene -- En Vogue, Tony! Toni! Tone!, and A Tribe Called Quest -- have formed the alter ego Lucy Pearl. With rock star makeovers gracing the cover and good press, you'd expect ... see all copies from $9.26! new only from $16.31!
12 view cover	The Brit Box: U.K. Indie, Shoegaze, and Brit-Pop Gems of the Last Millennium (2007) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $49.86! new only from $49.86!
13 view cover	Rancho Texicano: The Very Best of ZZ Top (2004) more music like this by ZZ Top Since Rhino released an exhaustive four-disc ZZ Top box in October 2003, some may question the appearance of a double-disc retrospective in June 2004, a mere eight months after the box set. The two may be released awfully close to each other, but they do play to different audiences -- in other words, there are a bunch of fans who want all the hits ... see all copies from $15.66! new only from $19.72!
14 view cover	Tyranny and Mutation [Bonus Tracks] (2001) more music like this by Blue Öyster Cult On Tyranny and Mutation, the Blue Öyster Cult achieved the seemingly impossible: They brightened their sound and deepened their mystique. The band picked up its tempos considerably on this sophomore effort, and producers Sandy Pearlman and Murray Krugman added a lightning bolt of high-end sonics to their frequency range. Add to this the starling ... see all copies from $10.62! new only from $10.62!
15 view cover	Rapture: Opera's Most Heavenly Moments (2002) more music like this by Various Artists Rapture: Opera's Most Heavenly Moments collects two discs' worth of opera classics that have been featured in films and commercials, and features performances from such star singers as Bryn Terfel, Joan Sutherland, and Kiri TeKanawa. The collection offers a good sampling of works from many of opera's definitive composers, including Mozart, Verdi, ... see all copies from $11.21! new only from $11.21!
16 view cover	Putumayo Presents: Israel (2007) more music like this by Various Artists Soon after opening an international office in Israel, Putumayo put together a compilation of contemporary cool from around the country. The sounds are relaxed, the mood is strong, and the message made by the liner notes is clear: this is the music of a new generation, with a mingling of religions and viewpoints favoring music and peace. The album ... see all copies from $13.37! new only from $13.37!
17 view cover	Pirates of the Carribean Trilogy (2007) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $14.56! new only from $14.56!
18 view cover	The Saint [Original Soundtrack] (1997) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to the silly Val Kilmer action movie The Saint was a surprisingly effective and useful collection of electronica, offering a good overview and introduction to many of the genre's biggest artists. Orbital's icy, attractive reworking of "The Saint Theme," Daft Punk's pulsating "Da Funk," Underworld's "Pearl's Girl," and Sneaker Pimps' ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.01!
19 view cover	Vs. (1993) more music like this by Pearl Jam Pearl Jam took to superstardom like deer in headlights. Unsure of how to maintain their rigorous standards of integrity in the face of massive commercial success, the band took refuge in willful obscurity -- the title of their second album, Vs., did not appear anywhere in the packaging, and they refused to release any singles or videos. ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.00!
20 view cover	18 Til I Die (1996) more music like this by Bryan Adams Adams and Robert "Mutt" Lange (Def Leppard, Shania Twain) appended the corporate vision "forever young" to the songwriting/production duo's carefully-crafted, 13-point wrinkle cream product line. The team has worked hard to strip the sessions of the most overt Lange-isms, and there's a tougher variety of material here than your typical Adams chart ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.96!
21 view cover	Amen (1999) more music like this by Paula Cole Band Thanks to Paula Cole's appearance on the first Lilith Fair and "Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?," This Fire didn't really take off until nearly a year after its 1996 release; plus, its closer "I Don't Want to Wait" became nearly omnipresent in 1998. So, the gap between This Fire and its sequel, Amen, didn't feel all that long, but a cursory ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.45!
22 view cover	Out With a Bang (1995) more music like this by David Lee Murphy Out With a Bang should have had one extra word added to the front of its title -- "Starting." This debut solo recording did start things out with a bang for country singer/songwriter and guitarist David Lee Murphy. This first full-length offering was finished a year after he signed with MCA. The album carries ten tracks, including major hits like ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.34!
23 view cover	Live on Two Legs (1998) more music like this by Pearl Jam Not long after Ten unexpectedly topped the charts, Pearl Jam became notorious for their intense live performances. Even more notable than the group's unbridled energy was their willingness to stretch out their songs or throw in covers, reminding jaded audiences that rock concerts could be electric and energetic. Their Seattle peers were equally ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.75!
24 view cover	Human's Lib (1984) more music like this by Howard Jones Human's Lib is fueled by the nonstop synth-pop hooks and brightly textured melodies that went on to be a trademark of Howard Jones. His brand of spirited keyboard-and-lyric exuberance lent itself to a large part of the mid-'80s, especially in Britain. The tracks on Human's Lib are energetic and colorful, coming to life the best on "New Song," a ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.87!
25 view cover	If I Was: The Very Best of Midge Ure & Ultravox (1993) more music like this by Midge Ure Midge Ure had already had a well-traveled career with stints of varying consequence in Slik, Rich Kids, Visage, and, briefly, Thin Lizzy by the time he joined Ultravox in 1980. The guitarist and singer was essential to Ultravox's '80s success as one of the more popular new romantic bands. Ure also managed to have some solo hits in the middle of ... see all copies from $3.60! new only from $8.77!
