1	Me & the Devil (2001) more music like this by Peter Green & Robert Johnson While it's no secret that guitar king Peter Green is obsessed with Robert Johnson, having done two previous recordings of his music, this box is in essence something else. There are three CDs included here, one of which is Hot Foot Powder, the first album by the Peter Green Splinter Group, which included guest performances from the likes of Otis ... see all copies from $6.28! new only from $19.88!
2	Delta Crossroads (2000) more music like this by Robert Lockwood, Jr. For Delta Crossroads, Robert Lockwood Jr., a former student of Robert Johnson, returns to his Delta blues roots. This 16-track album features Lockwood with only his 12-string acoustic guitar. It is rather strange hearing old Delta blues sung by one of its originals on a modern recording. All of the notes from the guitar are clear. Plus, his voice ... see all copies from $10.06! new only from $10.06!
3	Confessions of a Blues Singer (1998) more music like this by Rory Block Those who adore Block's work as a preservationist in reinterpreting classic Delta blues from the '20s and '30s will delight in this outing, another return to her solo acoustic roots. Block wanted to approach this album as an attempt to capture the spirit of the one-take recordings of the classic bluesmen, settling for rough mixes and not worrying ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $7.99!
4	King of the Delta Blues Singers, Vol. 2 [Bonus Track] (2004) more music like this by Robert Johnson King of the Delta Blues Singers,is a wonderful follow-up to the first compilation of Robert Johnson's small library of recorded work. This album boasts the first album appearance of "Love in Vain," as well as a number of other blues classics penned by the artist. "Sweet Home Chicago," "I Believe I'll Dust My Broom," "They're Red Hot," and "Malted ... see all copies from $10.66! new only from $10.66!
5	Up Jumped the Devil (2005) more music like this by Robert Johnson see all copies from $8.16! new only from $8.16!
6	On the North Side of the Tree (1999) more music like this by Moss Brothers The preteen Moss Brothers "keep it real." While a lot of younger acts sing about romantic love for the opposite sex, Evan and Reuben Moss sing about their love for sports ("Baseball" and "Football All the Way"), family ("Grandpa Turns 80"), and music ("Guitar and Drums"). The hilarious "Hot Water" refers to their hatred of washing the dishes and ... see all copies from $2.97! new only from $7.34!
7	Go Go Go to Surfin' School (1998) more music like this by The Del-Tino's & The Hesitations There was a portion of America that hadn't been touched by the British Invasion in the mid-'60s. While many bands hunkered down in their garages attempting to transform themselves into the Beatles or Stones, there were groups that kept the music of Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, the Beach Boys and the Trashmen alive. Two of those bands happened to be in ... see all copies from $11.24! new only from $13.23!
8	Me and the Devil Blues [Synergy] (2004) more music like this by Robert Johnson see all copies from $5.24! new only from $5.24!
9	A Proper Introduction to Ike Turner with Jackie Brenston (2004) more music like this by Ike Turner/Jackie Brenston Ike Turner was there at the epicenter of rock & roll in its earliest incarnation, first as a pianist and then as an electric guitarist with a naturally raw and biting tone, and his "Rocket 88," recorded in 1951 at Sam Phillips' famous Sun Studios with Jackie Brenston fronting things, has frequently been cited as the first real rock & roll record. ... see all copies from $7.95! new only from $7.95!
10	Peter Plays the Blues: The Classic Compositions of Robert Johnson (2002) more music like this by Peter Green/Nigel Watson Peter Green is appropriately reverent on this album of songs written by blues legend Robert Johnson. With Johnson's own recordings readily available, the album isn't really necessary, at least when Green employs the same spare instrumentation as the master. But on tracks like "Cross Road Blues" that use drums, electric bass, and electric guitar in ... see all copies from $10.30! new only from $10.30!

12 view cover	The Robert Johnson Songbook [1998] (1998) more music like this by Peter Green Splinter Group The Robert Johnson Songbook is Peter Green's first recording made entirely of covers of the music written by the King of the Delta Blues. Unfortunately, though pleasant, The Robert Johnson Songbook lacks the warmth and soulfulness of its successor -- Hot Foot Powder. The Robert Johnson Songbook features Green's Splinter Group, plus a guest ... see all copies from $7.89!
13 view cover	Sweet Home: Pyeng Threadgill Sings Robert Johnson (2004) more music like this by Pyeng Threadgill Singer and arranger Pyeng Threadgill is the daughter of composer, bandleader, and multi-instrumentalist Henry Threadgill and choreographer/dancer Christina Jones, a founding member of the celebrated Urban Bushwomen. Sweet Home offers 11 Robert Johnson tunes in 11 different settings. While more cynical punters and blues purists (ugh) may sigh or ... see all copies from $10.95! new only from $10.95!
14 view cover	Judgement Day: Songs of Robert Johnson (2004) more music like this by Various Artists A brilliant assimilator, Robert Johnson took stock community blues material and infused it with his own personality, and no doubt well aware that a big part of a performer's charisma was a little dose of mystery, layered his most striking songs with a vague and ominous melodrama, even appropriating the old myth of bartering away one's soul to the ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $12.00!
15 view cover	Dealin' With the Devil: Songs of Robert Johnson (2000) more music like this by Various Artists Dealin With the Devil captures contemporary blues artists interpreting 12 classic songs of the legendary Robert Johnson. Throughout the years these essential compositions have been performed numerous times, crossing a well-traveled route between both the blues and rock worlds. Since it is impossible to live up to the mythical status of a Robert ... see all copies from $3.49! new only from $3.49!
16 view cover	Complete Collection (1998) more music like this by Robert Johnson Robert Johnson's recordings were made in the 1930s, but they did not become widely known until the 1960s, and did not achieve mass popularity until the 1990s, with the release of Columbia/Legacy's box set The Complete Recordings. Due to the age of the recordings, however, they are in the public domain in Europe, so any record label can simply copy ... see all copies from $4.35! new only from $4.35!
17 view cover	Plays Robert and Robert [Bonus Tracks] (2003) more music like this by Robert Jr. Lockwood Plays Robert and Robert finds Robert Lockwood, Jr. in a beautifully recorded solo context (cut in France in 1982 for Black & Blue), doing what he does best -- his own songs and those of his legendary mentor, Robert Johnson. Purists may quiver at Lockwood's use of the 12-string guitar as his primary axe, but he long ago made the instrument his own ... see all copies from $18.10! new only from $18.10!
18 view cover	Ramblin' on My Mind (2002) more music like this by Robert Lockwood Jr. see all copies from $30.39! new only from $30.39!
19 view cover	The Roots of Blues, Vol. 1 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists MVP's Roots of Blues, Vol. 1 doesn't use African music as the roots of the blues, the way that Rhino's Blues Masters series did on its Roots of the Blues disc. Instead, Roots of Blues, Vol. 1 simply contains a bunch of early country blues songs from such giants as Sonny Boy Williamson, Robert Johnson, Blind Boy Fuller, Leadbelly, Charlie Patton, ... see all copies from $4.98! new only from $4.98!
20 view cover	Guitar & Bass (2004) more music like this by Robert Johnson Robert Johnson may not have been as innovative in the country blues field as many people think, but as one of the last of the great Delta players to record, he brought a late-era refinement to his material, and with striking songs like "Stones in My Passway," "Cross Road Blues," and "Love in Vain," he certainly deserves his lofty position in the ... see all copies from $21.99! new only from $21.99!
21 view cover	Walk the Talk (2003) more music like this by Jesse Colin Young see all copies from $8.99! new only from $8.99!
