1	Beyond the Missouri Sky (Short Stories) (1996) more music like this by Charlie Haden & Pat Metheny Charlie Haden and Pat Metheny have been good friends since the 1970s, so it comes as a bit of a surprise that Beyond the Missouri Sky should be their first duet album together. Both musicians are from small towns in Missouri, which leads Metheny to speculate in the liner notes if this similarity of childhood ambience might have something to do ... see all copies from $11.00! new only from $16.81!
2	Will the Circle Be Unbroken [Bonus Tracks] (2002) more music like this by The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band With all due respect to the Byrds and the Flying Burrito Brothers, it took the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band with this album to come up with a merger of rock and country music that worked for both sides and everyone involved. The opening number, "The Grand Ole Opry Song," set the tone for the album, showing that this band -- for all of their origins in ... see all copies from $20.35! new only from $20.35!
3	All American Bluegrass Girl (2006) more music like this by Rhonda Vincent Rhonda Vincent has stuck closer to tradition than Alison Krauss over the long run, and with a title like All American Bluegrass Girl, she seems quite happy to have done so. She remembers to touch all the right bases, covering religious material like "Jesus Built a Bridge to Heaven," closing with Roy Acuff's "Precious Jewel," and even dueting with ... see all copies from $10.99! new only from $14.65!
4	King of Country Music [Proper Box] (2004) more music like this by Roy Acuff The King of Country Music finally receives his due with this four-disc box set that compiles 101 recordings Roy Acuff made between 1937 and 1950 for the Perfect, Vocalion, Conqueror, OKeh, and Columbia labels. Acuff was a country music standard-bearer on and off the Opry for so many years, it's amazing that this is the first time he has been ... see all copies from $17.99! new only from $17.99!
5	20 All-Time Greatest Hits (2002) more music like this by The Louvin Brothers What's accurate about this title is that it does contain 20 songs recorded by the Louvin Brothers. This "All-Time Greatest Hits" business is a total crock. There are a few well-known numbers tossed in here for measure, such as their version of "Great Speckled Bird," "Knoxville Girl," "When I Stop Dreaming," and "I Love You Best of All," but much ... see all copies from $9.44! new only from $9.44!
6	40 Songs (2003) more music like this by The Louvin Brothers see all copies from $17.15! new only from $17.15!
7	Masters of Old-Time Country Autoharp (2006) more music like this by Various Artists The autoharp was invented in the 1870s as a sort of automated zither and initially was popular as a parlor instrument. It took hold in the Appalachians in the early 1900s thanks to its mail-order affordability, and local musicians quickly adapted it to an assortment of hymns, ballads, and fiddle tunes. The autoharp required frequent retunings, ... see all copies from $14.51! new only from $14.51!
8	Wray's Three Track Shack (2005) more music like this by Link Wray While most anyone who worships at the altar of rock guitar knows Link Wray as the gutbucket minimalist who gave birth to the definitive six-string snarl on such primal 1950s singles as "Rumble," "Rawhide," and "Ace of Spades," that's not all the man was capable of, and folks expecting the hard-edged roar of his best-known work may be a bit taken ... see all copies from $21.76! new only from $21.76!
9	King of Country Music [TeeVee] (1982) more music like this by Roy Acuff Although this label is notorious for flooding the market with shoddy packaging and greatest-hits packages that consist of nothing but lame re-cuts, this is actually a 20-track collection of Acuff's early Columbia sides. Unfortunately, it's all copied off of old scratchy 78s and the sound hasn't been cleaned up too well. Still, it is a way to ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.95!
10	Greatest Hits [Cema Special Markets] (1995) more music like this by Roy Acuff see all copies from $5.05! new only from $5.05!
11 view cover	Sweet Harmony (1996) more music like this by The Whitstein Brothers While no one can be expected to follow in the footsteps of the Louvin Brothers, arguably the greatest of country music's long history of brother acts (which also includes the Delmores, the Blue Sky Boys, and Charlie and Bill Monroe), the Whitstein Brothers are nonetheless keeping the tradition of harmonizing siblings very much alive -- and ... see all copies from $6.94! new only from $10.00!
12 view cover	Too Much Fun (1999) more music like this by The Holy Modal Rounders The Holy Modal Rounders once again breathe life into American folk music with Too Much Fun. This offbeat collection is more than enough fun, with "Tea Song," "Year of Jublio" and "New John the Revelator" among the standouts. As they've done since 1963, the Rounders bring songs from several generations together for a whimsical tour of American ... see all copies from $8.74! new only from $10.81!
13 view cover	The Essential Roy Acuff [Columbia] (2004) more music like this by Roy Acuff Roy Acuff is a pivotal figure in country music, standing clearly at the crossroads of what had been termed hillbilly music and what would soon become modern country. A no more than adequate singer and fiddle player, Acuff still managed to hit just the right tone of sincerity with his spare and simple songs (most of which were carefully chosen ... see all copies from $5.48! new only from $5.48!

16 view cover	Night Train to Memphis (1970) more music like this by Roy Acuff Arguably, Roy Acuff was the Louis Armstrong of country -- a seminal figure who was a major influence on everyone from Hank Williams, Ernest Tubb, and Cowboy Copas to Lefty Frizzell, Hank Snow, and Buck Owens. And that list of heavyweights barely scratches the surface. Acuff didn't invent country any more than Armstrong invented jazz, but his ... see all copies from $5.95! new only from $5.95!

20 view cover	Songs of the Smokey Mountains (1955) more music like this by Roy Acuff Songs of the Smokey Mountains was the sole LP released by Capitol during Acuff's stay with the label in the mid-'50s. It contains remakes of his classics from the late '30s and early '40s, recorded in three sessions in 1954-1955. The original versions are definitive, of course, but it is interesting to hear Acuff reprise these songs under more ... see all copies from $2.74! new only from $8.88!
21 view cover	Good Songs for Hard Times (2000) more music like this by Ginny Hawker & Tracy Schwarz Together, Tracy Schwarz and Ginny Hawker make a formidable force. Both have long pursued traditional music, Schwarz with the New Lost City Ramblers and Hawker in a duo with Kay Justice. Fans of either singer will be pleased with their new collection. Good Songs for Hard Times offers 15 songs including traditional material and originals by Schwarz. ... see all copies from $10.75! new only from $10.75!

24 view cover	Sing the Great Roy Acuff Songs (2003) more music like this by The Louvin Brothers One of the many "theme" albums the Louvin Brothers released during their tenure at Capitol Records (which was assembled from older recordings by the label two years after Ira Louvin's death), The Louvin Brothers Sing the Great Roy Acuff Songs finds Charlie and Ira interpreting 12 songs made famous by another one of country music's staunch ... see all copies from $7.62! new only from $7.62!
