1	Pieces of the Sky [Bonus Tracks] (2004) more music like this by Emmylou Harris Emmylou Harris' Pieces of the Sky is one of the more welcome entries in her catalog. Before the auspicious and provocative Elite Hotel, issued later in 1975, Pieces of the Sky was the kind of record that became Harris' signature style for most of her time at Warner Brothers, and is one of the most auspicious debut recordings in the history of ... see all copies from $10.51! new only from $10.51!
2	The Best of Shel Silverstein: His Words His Songs His Friends (2005) more music like this by Shel Silverstein Shel Silverstein is a hard guy to pin down, which is part of not only his charm, but his genius. He's best known as a children's author, but also was a Playboy cartoonist who couldn't resist a dirty joke. He penned novelty songs, but also could write songs as heart-wrenching as "Silvia's Mother" and "Once More With Feeling." He was also a terrific ... see all copies from $7.09! new only from $10.08!
3	Songs of the West (1994) more music like this by Emmylou Harris Following Harris' departure from Warner Bros., the label saw fit to compile Songs of the West, a collection of previously-released performances linked thematically by their connection, however tenuous, to Western music, life and mythology. Stripped of their original album context, the individual tracks fail to happily co-exist; the record's lone ... see all copies from $3.32! new only from $3.32!
4	A Little Bit More [Bonus Tracks] (2003) more music like this by Dr. Hook A small improvement from their earlier work surfaces on A Little Bit More, but not enough to be qualified as significant, with Ray Sawyer and the rest of Dr. Hook showing slight signs of relinquishing their exhausted sense of humor. The band took the syrupy title track to number 11, while "If Not You" made it to number 55 in the U.S., but went Top ... see all copies from $8.47! new only from $8.47!
5	Anthology (1998) more music like this by Dave & Sugar The budget-priced Anthology is a definitive overview of Dave & Sugar's country-pop smashes of the late 1970s, its 23 tracks assembling all of the group's smash hits for RCA. In addition to the chart-toppers "The Door Is Always Open" and "Golden Tears," the set also includes the Top Ten smashes "I'm Gonna Love You," "Don't Throw It All Away," "I'm ... see all copies from $15.00! new only from $15.00!
6	Something to Brag About (2004) more music like this by Porter Wagoner/Pamela Rose Gadd see all copies from $5.30! new only from $5.30!
7	Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show: Revisited (1976) more music like this by Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show Revisited serves as a best-of collection for the pre-disco version of Dr. Hook. The set includes their two (so far) radio hits, "Sylvia's Mother" and "Cover of the Rolling Stone," accompanied by several of their comedic tunes like "Freakin' at the Freaker's Ball." Still a few years away from "A Little Bit More" and "Sharing the Night Together," ... see all copies from $5.11! new only from $5.11!
8	RX (1972) more music like this by Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show Rx features ten Shel Silverstein songs, including "Queen of the Silver Dollar," "Makin' It Natural," "Cover of the Rolling Stone" and "Monterey Jack." Keith Farley, All Music Guide see all copies from $3.00! new only from $5.27!
9	I Got Stoned and I Missed It: The Best from Shel Silverstein 1971-1979 (2003) more music like this by Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show Dr. Hook's 1970s brand of country-flavored pop/rock was always at its best with a satirical edge, usually supplied by the songwriting talents of humorist and Playboy cartoonist Shel Silverstein. While it wouldn't be quite correct to call Dr. Hook simply a mouthpiece band, the fact remains that the group's most memorable songs were penned by ... see all copies from $19.01! new only from $19.01!

12 view cover	The Essential Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show (2003) more music like this by Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show The problem with assembling a definitive Dr. Hook collection is twofold. First, there's the simple fact that they had their hits at two different labels, spending the first part of the '70s at Columbia and the latter half at Capitol. To top it off, the band changed considerably during those two eras, beginning as the ramshackle, Shel Silverstein ... see all copies from $10.77! new only from $10.77!

17	Dave & Sugar (1976) more music like this by Dave & Sugar The debut album from "the country ABBA," Dave & Sugar contains all of the trio's biggest hits as well as several excellent album tracks. Leader Dave Rowland has a classically deep, weepy country delivery, at times sounding like a cross between Kenny Rogers and Gary Stewart. Sugar (singers Jackie Frantz and Vickie Baker, with help from Sue Powell ... see all copies from $6.00!

22 view cover	The Very Best of Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show (1984) more music like this by Dr. Hook Dr. Hook has been represented by an awful lot of compilations over the past 20 years or so, of which most have been small-scale budget-priced productions, covering no more than eight or ten songs. In that context, this 24-song CD from the U.K. constitutes the mother lode, at least until someone does a box (fat chance) on this satirical country ... see all copies from $14.99! new only from $14.99!
