1	The Anthology (2001) more music like this by Bobby "Blue" Bland As the quintessential chitlin' circuit R&B/blues star, Memphis-based singer Bobby "Blue" Bland's career has been relatively well-documented on CD. Still, until this 2001 double set, all 25 of his Top Ten R&B hits have not been available in one package. The Anthology is still not a complete career overview though, as it ends in 1982 before his ... see all copies from $17.79! new only from $17.79!
2	Blues Summit (1993) more music like this by B.B. King On this release, King comes close to equaling his past triumphs on small independent labels in the '50s and '60s. He's ditched the psuedo-hip production fodder and cut a 12-song set matching him with blues peers. His duets with Buddy Guy, John Lee Hooker, and Albert Collins are especially worthy, while the songs with Koko Taylor, Ruth Brown, and ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $13.34!
3	The Resurrection of Pigboy Crabshaw (1967) more music like this by The Paul Butterfield Blues Band In his third album, Butterfield adds a horn section and the direction of the group has started to veer away from straight Chicago-style blues toward a sound more influenced by R&B. By this time, Bloomfield has left the group and Elvin Bishop (aka Pigboy Crabshaw) takes over on lead guitar. A lot of great tunes here, like "Driftin' and Driftin." ... see all copies from $9.55! new only from $9.55!
4	Definitive Collection (2007) more music like this by Bobby "Blue" Bland Bobby "Blue" Bland is closing in on sixty years as a professional singer (he cut his first single way back in 1951), and while his technical singing range has shrunk with age, he has more than compensated for it with his elegant sense of phrasing and his intelligent use of appropriate melisma, a trait that any number of contemporary would-be R&B ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $13.34!
5	Got to Find a Way (1998) more music like this by Luther Johnson The appeal of the blues is its earthiness, simplicity, honesty and the humanity of its purveyors. Got to Find a Way has all of these; plus, it's a rockin' good time from beginning to end. Anchored by five originals and several classic blues songs, this disc finds Luther "Guitar Junior" Johnson and his band, the Magic Rockers, dishing out the real ... see all copies from $6.80! new only from $10.44!
6	Early On (1964-1966) (1991) more music like this by David Bowie Before landing his first commercial success with 1969's "Space Oddity," David Bowie released a number of flop records in a variety of styles. He first emerged in the mid-1960s as a mod following the paths of The Who, Kinks, and Rolling Stones. The 17-cut CD Early On (1964-66) is by far the most comprehensive anthology of his first works, gathering ... see all copies from $11.11! new only from $11.11!
7	Two Steps From the Blues (2002) more music like this by Bobby "Blue" Bland Without a doubt, Two Steps From the Blues is the definitive Bobby "Blue" Bland album and one of the great records in electric blues and soul-blues. In fact, it's one of the key albums in modern blues, marking a turning point when juke joint blues were seamlessly blended with gospel and Southern soul, creating a distinctly Southern sound where all ... see all copies from $20.81! new only from $20.81!
8	I Was Made to Love Her (1967) more music like this by Stevie Wonder This album was rushed out to capitalize on the success of the title song, which was Wonder's biggest pop hit since "Fingertips, Pt. 2," and would not be bettered until "Superstition" in 1972. Other than the hit, it's all filler, but not uninteresting for that. There are several contributions from the Wonder team at Motown, covers of other Motown ... see all copies from $4.30! new only from $12.00!
9	Fill This World with Love (1996) more music like this by Ann Peebles Working off the critical success of her 1992 album Full Time Love, with this 1996 effort Ann Peebles proves that Full Time Love was no fluke. With a voice that has lost none of the power or seduction of her glory days at Hi Records, Peebles blasts through uptempo numbers such as "I'm Yours" and the title track, a duet with the great Mavis Staples. ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $9.29!
10	No-One to Blame (2007) more music like this by Rita Chiarelli see all copies from $12.89! new only from $12.89!
11 view cover	Live on Beale Street (1998) more music like this by Bobby Blue Bland Recorded live at the New Daisy Theater with Bland's regular working road band, this captures him in fine form, bringing together old favorites with some other numbers for a heady blend. When called for, the old Joe Scott heavy horn-laden arrangements are summoned up on tunes like "St. James Infirmary," "Farther on Up the Road," "That's the Way ... see all copies from $15.07! new only from $15.07!
12 view cover	The Voice: Duke Recordings 1959-69 (1991) more music like this by Bobby "Blue" Bland A 26-track compilation of Duke sides from Bland's peak decade (1959-1969). MCA's two-volume The Duke Recordings covers this period in greater depth, and will be more readily available to most North American consumers. On its own terms, though, it's an excellent collection. Contains most of his biggest R&B hits ("Turn On Your Love Light," "Stormy ... see all copies from $15.32! new only from $15.32!
13 view cover	Blues Classics: Millennium Collection - 20th Century Masters (2003) more music like this by Various Artists There is no doubt that all of the tracks on this collection are indeed blues classics. B.B. King's "The Thrill Is Gone," Muddy Waters' "Got My Mojo Working," and Big Mama Thornton's "Hound Dog" are just three of the signature songs found here. With so many blues anthologies on the market, though, this compilation suffers for its brief length, and ... see all copies from $8.72! new only from $8.72!
14 view cover	Knäckebröd Blues (2004) more music like this by Louise Hoffsten see all copies from $7.98! new only from $7.98!
15 view cover	Resurrection of Pigboy Crabshaw/In My Own Dream (2004) more music like this by The Paul Butterfield Blues Band This imported double CD from WEA's international division is a real conundrum for blues fans in general and fans of the Paul Butterfield Blues Band in particular. On the one hand, the first of its two discs is The Resurrection of Pigboy Crabshaw, the last of what are usually regarded as the classic albums by the band, and a glorious moment in the ... see all copies from $36.46! new only from $36.46!
16 view cover	Soulful Side of Bobby Bland (2001) more music like this by Bobby "Blue" Bland see all copies from $11.77! new only from $12.93!
17 view cover	Straight From the Heart (1972) more music like this by Ann Peebles A lean, tough set that was not only a triumph for Peebles, but illustrated how the Hi label had surpassed its crosstown Stax rival for quality Memphis soul in the early '70s. The guitars are spare, funky, and bluesy, the horn section punchy, and the material far earthier and down-home than the increasingly formulaic grooves at Stax. There were ... see all copies from $20.97! new only from $31.75!
18 view cover	I Pity the Fool: The Duke Recordings, Vol. 1 (1992) more music like this by Bobby "Blue" Bland Everything the young Bland waxed for Duke between 1952 and the 1960 date that produced "Cry, Cry, Cry" and the R&B-laced "Don't Cry No More." From 1955 on, this is uniformly seminal stuff, Bland's vocal confidence growing by the session and buttressed by the consistently innovative riffs and solos of guitarists Clarence Hollimon, Wayne Bennett (he ... see all copies from $18.00!
19 view cover	The Best of Bobby Bland [MCA] (1987) more music like this by Bobby "Blue" Bland There have been many Bobby "Blue" Bland collections over the years, and 1974's The Best of Bobby Bland has been eclipsed by several of them in terms of comprehensiveness and completeness. Still, in terms of a listening experience, this is one of the great blues greatest-hits collections, providing 12 of Bland's greatest songs, including "I Smell ... see all copies from $8.00!
20 view cover	Tighten Up: No. 1 Soul Hits of the 60's, Vol. 2 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists The fertile soul charts of the '60s are spotlighted on this 18-track collection from Relativity. Ranging from some late-period work by the Drifters to Jerry Butler's Philly International hits, the mix keeps the gold coming with the likes of James Brown ("It's a Man's Man's Man's World"), Mary Wells ("You Beat Me to the Punch"), Bobby Bland ("I ... see all copies from $10.00!
21	Basic Blues, Vol. 4 (2001) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $3.43! new only from $4.80!
22 view cover	Classic R&B Oldies from the 60's, Vol. 1 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists The ten-track Classic R&B Oldies from the 60's Volume 1 is an entertaining retrospective of the music's golden era, compiling a number of must-have hits including Fontella Bass' "Rescue Me," the Four Tops' "Reach Out, I'll Be There," the Impressions' "It's All Right" and Bobby Bland's "I Pity the Fool." Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide see all copies from $4.82! new only from $4.82!
23 view cover	Duke-Peacock's Greatest Hits (1992) more music like this by Various Artists Duke and Peacock were Houston-based blues and R&B labels that released quite a string of popular and influential records in the '50s and '60s. Don Robey founded Peacock in 1949 and brought in the successful but struggling Duke label in 1953. It isn't mentioned in the title of the disc but included also are some tunes released on Robey's teenage ... see all copies from $10.00!
24 view cover	U.S. R&B Hits '69-'79 (1996) more music like this by Ann Peebles U.S. R&B Chart Hits is exactly what it says it is -- an excellent collection featuring Ann Peebles' 18 biggest R&B hits, including such classics as "Part Time Love," "I'm Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down" and "I Can't Stand the Rain." It's arguably the definitive Peebles collection, since it sports a leaner and better track selection than the Right ... see all copies from $49.99!
25 view cover	St. Louis Woman/Memphis Soul (1996) more music like this by Ann Peebles St. Louis Woman is a terrific four-disc, 63-track box set covering Ann Peebles' entire career, concentrating (rightly so) on her seminal early-'70s recordings for Hi Records. All of her hits are here, of course, along with underappreciated album tracks, lost singles, B-sides, rarities and a handful of unreleased cuts. Certainly, this isn't the ... see all copies from $91.39! new only from $91.39!
