1	When My Heart Finds Christmas (1993) more music like this by Harry Connick, Jr. For this Christmas jazz album, Harry Connick, Jr. emphasizes his vocals (his piano playing is quite secondary) as he sings ten familiar Christmas songs plus four of his somewhat forgettable originals while joined by a big band, a string section, and background singers. The results are reasonably pleasing, but of little interest to jazz listeners. ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.06!
2	Red Headed Stranger (1975) more music like this by Willie Nelson Willie Nelson's Red Headed Stranger perhaps is the strangest blockbuster country produced, a concept album about a preacher on the run after murdering his departed wife and her new lover, told entirely with brief song-poems and utterly minimal backing. It's defiantly anticommercial and it demands intense concentration -- all reasons why nobody ... see all copies from $4.94! new only from $11.06!
3	Barenaked for the Holidays (2004) more music like this by Barenaked Ladies It's probably safe to say that fans of Barenaked Ladies have never found a holiday album to suit their tastes until now, when the notoriously quirky Canadian quintet released Barenaked for the Holidays. This will likely satisfy that portion of their audience (however large or small it is) that has wanted a holiday album delivered with that ... see all copies from $9.98! new only from $15.82!
4	Holiday Sing-Along with Mitch Miller (1961) more music like this by Mitch Miller and the Gang Holiday Sing-Along with Mitch Miller, his second Christmas/holiday record, is as enjoyable as Christmas Sing-Along with Mitch, thanks to his commercial production and appealing song selection. There are no surprises here -- Miller's records are all essentially the same; the only things that change are the songs -- but anyone who enjoys his sound ... see all copies from $5.98! new only from $5.98!
5	Toddler Favorites [Rhino] (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Music for Little People's Toddler Favorites is an appealing collection of good versions of 16 classic children's songs, such as "Wheels on the Bus," "Twinkle Twinkle," "Baah Baah Black Sheep," "I'm a Little Teapot, " "Peas Porridge Hot," "Old MacDonald," "This Old Man," "The Itsy Bitsy Spider" and "If You're Happy and You Know It." Very few ... see all copies from $4.49! new only from $4.49!
6	Now That's What I Call Christmas, Vol. 3 (2006) more music like this by Various Artists Like the Now That's What I Call Music! series from which it was spun off, Now That's What I Call Christmas! has spawned a series of various-artists collections drawn from the archives of three of the four major labels, Universal, EMI, and Sony BMG, labels that have long-since absorbed nearly all the old independent labels and thus control an ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $12.00!
7	Home for Christmas (1990) more music like this by Dolly Parton Since it was recorded during the '80s, Home for Christmas sounds a bit too slick, especially for fans of her early material, but it's nevertheless a reasonably enjoyable holiday record, thanks to Dolly's irrepressible charm. Thom Owens, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.95! new only from $5.11!
8	The Joshua Tree (1987) more music like this by U2 Using the textured sonics of The Unforgettable Fire as a basis, U2 expanded those innovations by scaling back the songs to a personal setting and adding a grittier attack for its follow-up, The Joshua Tree. It's a move that returns them to the sweeping, anthemic rock of War, but if War was an exploding political bomb, The Joshua Tree is a journey ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $10.96!
9	Christmas with Conniff (1959) more music like this by The Ray Conniff Singers Christmas with Conniff is Ray Conniff's first holiday record, and it remains one of his very best efforts in that genre. His light, pretty, signature touch is perfectly suited to Christmas music, and he and his singers make such carols and holiday songs as "Frosty the Snowman," "Here Comes Santa Claus," "Jingle Bells," "Rudolph, the Red-Nosed ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.98!
10	Now That's What I Call Christmas! [Universal] (2001) more music like this by Various Artists The Now series is known for crossing the boundaries of record labels in its attempt to provide definitive collections of hits -- usually from contemporary hits, but also of different eras and styles from the past (at least in its U.K. incarnation). Thankfully, the double-disc, 36-track collection Now That's What I Call Christmas! lives up to the ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $17.50!
11 view cover	Experience Hendrix: The Best of Jimi Hendrix (1998) more music like this by Jimi Hendrix This compilation just misses being the perfect single-CD Jimi Hendrix anthology, and it's a crying shame because it comes so close. Its main virtue is that, in contrast to Smash Hits -- the only compilation of Hendrix's work approved by the artist -- it extends its reach past 1968. The last of the tracks come from the abortive First Rays of the ... see all copies from $9.56! new only from $9.56!
12 view cover	Buzz Buzz (2001) more music like this by Laurie Berkner Laurie Berkner's second children's album doesn't tamper much with the formula that made her first effort, Whaddaya Think About That?, an overnight success. Once again it is Berkner's finely tuned understanding of her audience that sets her apart. Her songs are characterized by an uninhibited absurdity that is fresh and unpredictable. One song is ... see all copies from $6.98! new only from $14.90!
13 view cover	All the Roadrunning (2006) more music like this by Mark Knopfler/Emmylou Harris This lush and earthy collaboration between Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris may sound like it rose from an amiable weeklong studio session, but the 12 tracks that make up All the Roadrunning were actually recorded over the span of seven years. The boot-stomping "Red Staggerwing" and the gentle "Donkey Town," both of which were bumped from Knopfler ... see all copies from $13.99! new only from $13.99!
14 view cover	So (1986) more music like this by Peter Gabriel Peter Gabriel introduced his fifth studio album So with "Sledgehammer," an Otis Redding-inspired soul-pop raver that was easily his catchiest, happiest single to date. Needless to say, it was also his most accessible, and, in that sense it was a good introduction to So, the catchiest, happiest record he ever cut. "Sledgehammer" propelled the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.84!
15 view cover	The Bootleg Series, Vols. 1-3 (Rare & Unreleased) 1961-1991 (1991) more music like this by Bob Dylan This three-disc box set is what Dylanphiles have been waiting for, sitting patiently for years, even decades. And, even after its 1991 release, it retains the feeling of being a special, shared secret among the hardcore, since -- no matter the acclaim -- it's the kind of record that only the hardcore will seek out. Of course, the great irony is ... see all copies from $29.99! new only from $37.25!
16 view cover	Prince of Egypt (1998) more music like this by Original Soundtrack How confident was DreamWorks about the success of their animated Bible epic The Prince of Egypt? So confident that they decided to simultaneously release three soundtracks for the film, each targeted at a different audience. It was an audacious move, since there were few songs in the film -- which means that not only did "the official soundtrack" ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.99!
17 view cover	Ella Wishes You a Swinging Christmas [Bonus Tracks] (2002) more music like this by Ella Fitzgerald This is a delightful Christmas jazz reissue featuring Ella Fitzgerald in prime form. On most selections she is backed by Frank DeVol's orchestra. The original dozen selections have been expanded with the addition of three alternate takes plus three selections only out previously on samplers, including "Christmas Island." Fitzgerald clearly had a ... see all copies from $6.86! new only from $10.64!
18 view cover	Hot August Night (1972) more music like this by Neil Diamond This is the ultimate Neil Diamond record. Not necessarily the best -- he's at his most appealing crafting in the studio -- but certainly the ultimate, capturing all the kitsch and glitz of Neil Diamond, the showman. And that also means that it's not just loaded with flair, but with filler, songs like "Porcupine Pie," "Soggy Pretzels," and "And the ... see all copies from $3.51! new only from $18.01!
19 view cover	Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 (2004) more music like this by Toby Keith Toby Keith's Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 picks up where his first hits collection, 1998's Greatest Hits, Vol. 1, left off -- in 1999, when Keith signed to DreamWorks. Unfortunately, it doesn't cover everything Keith released between 1999's How Do You Like Me Now?! and Greatest Hits, Vol. 2's release in November 2004. It inexplicably bypasses his 2003 ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $10.67!
20 view cover	40 Years: A Charlie Brown Christmas (2005) more music like this by Various Artists If someone had told Vince Guaraldi in 1965 that his scores for the Charlie Brown specials for children would have been the first exposure to jazz for several generations of impressionable children, chances are the composer would have either shrugged off the statement and paid it no mind or he would have laughed heartily at such a notion. But his ... see all copies from $2.00! new only from $2.00!
21 view cover	Have a Holly Jolly Christmas (1965) more music like this by Burl Ives Have a Holly Jolly Christmas is a compilation of holiday songs performed by Burl Ives. The award-winning actor performed the definitive version of the title track, thus forever cementing his place in the genre. The other songs here (many of which have also gotten quite a lot of radio play) are all standards for the most part, and are all sung in ... see all copies from $4.95! new only from $4.95!
22 view cover	Portrait of a Legend 1951-1964 (2003) more music like this by Sam Cooke Some 46 years after his first pop hit, and 39 years after his death, comes only the second attempt at a comprehensive Sam Cooke collection. Portrait of a Legend 1951-1964 eclipses RCA's early-'80s The Man and His Music, going it better in running time but losing some important recordings -- "That's Heaven to Me" and "Soothe Me," arguably one of ... see all copies from $15.48! new only from $15.48!
23 view cover	Raffi's Christmas Album [Bonus Track] [2002] (2002) more music like this by Raffi This is an essential collection that's perfect for kids and still enjoyable for adults. [The 2002 reissue contains one bonus track.] David A. Milberg, All Music Guide see all copies from $11.12! new only from $11.12!
24 view cover	Pretty Paper (1979) more music like this by Willie Nelson Artists almost always release Christmas albums when they have a comfortable level of sales, and when Willie Nelson was at a popular peak during the late '70s, he chose to exploit his popularity by releasing Pretty Paper. Fortunately, the album was hardly a toss-off -- it was one of the finest country holiday records ever released. It's not just ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
25 view cover	The Time-Life Treasury of Christmas: 2 CD Collection [2001] (2001) more music like this by Various Artists The Time-Life Treasury of Christmas combines both volumes of the series into a two-CD set. Christmas Spirit features some of the season's liveliest pop hits, such as Perry Como's "Home for the Holidays," Ella Fitzgerald's "Jingle Bells," and Julie Andrews' "Joy to the World," as well as mellower songs like Bing Crosby's "White Christmas" and Andy ... see all copies from $6.71! new only from $17.15!
