1	Queen of Soul: The Atlantic Recordings (1992) more music like this by Aretha Franklin Queen of Soul: The Atlantic Recordings is an 86-track, four-disc box set that covers Aretha Franklin's Atlantic career, spanning from 1967's "I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)" to 1976's "Something He Can Feel." Over the course of the set, all of Aretha's best-known songs, including all of her Top Ten pop and R&B singles, are included. For ... see all copies from $36.00! new only from $36.00!
2	Soul '69 (1969) more music like this by Aretha Franklin One of her most overlooked '60s albums, on which she presented some of her jazziest material, despite the title. None of these cuts were significant hits, and none were Aretha originals; she displayed her characteristically eclectic taste in the choice of cover material, handling compositions by Percy Mayfield, Sam Cooke, Smokey Robinson, and, at ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $9.66!
3	The Best of Stanley Turrentine [Blue Note] (1960) more music like this by Stanley Turrentine As the man who wrote the liner notes says, Stanley Turrentine may be the only Texas tenor player to come out of Pittsburgh -- and you can hear several of the reasons why in this distillation of his Blue Note dates from 1960 to 1966, plus a grand leap all the way to 1984. Though his sound can be heard as early as the fairly conventional "Little ... see all copies from $4.65! new only from $11.00!
4	The Delta Meets Detroit: Aretha's Blues (1998) more music like this by Aretha Franklin The Delta Meets Detroit: Aretha's Blues is one of the few non-hits compilations that makes sense. Selecting 16 tracks from her Atlantic recordings, the disc spotlights Franklin at her bluesiest -- there are no hits here, but there's also no shortage of remarkable songs, either, as "Today I Sing the Blues," "Night Life," "Night Time Is the Right ... see all copies from $9.98! new only from $9.98!

7	The Legacy Lives On (2000) more music like this by The Legacy Band This two-CD anthology is full of veterans active in jazz for four decades or more apiece, including Jon Hendricks, Kenny Burrell, Cedar Walton, Teddy Edwards, Al McKibbon, Pete Jolly, Ray Brown, James Moody, and Shirley Horn; it was recorded to honor their contributions as well as the memory of Harry "Sweets" Edison, Milt Jackson, and Joe Williams ... see all copies from $3.17! new only from $17.79!

10	35th Anniversary Jam of the James Cotton Blues Band (2002) more music like this by James Cotton Don't complain that there are too many guests here -- that's what this jam was all about , inviting a bunch of friends and kindred spirits to jam in the studio during June of 2001. These musicians were here to salute not just the great James Cotton and his songs, but the long life of his classic James Cotton Blues Band, by playing some of their ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $15.40!
11 view cover	Legends & Lions: Blues (2006) more music like this by Various Artists Legends & Lions: Blues is a series assembled by Detroit's Mack Avenue label that pairs its roster's veteran artists with its up-and-coming personas thematically. The first two volumes in the series -- Swingin' and Swoonin' -- were successful in their way. The Blues volume is another attempt at the formula and it meets with very mixed results. ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $10.70!
12 view cover	Back on the Track (1998) more music like this by Gene Ludwig This CD shows organist Gene Ludwig's unabashed love for soul and blues pure and simple, which is not surprising since he is a native of that area of Pennsylvania which spawned so many of the giants of jazz and blues. Ludwig is no newcomer to the scene, having been performing since the 1960s; he got a big break in 1969 when he recorded with Sonny ... see all copies from $3.46! new only from $8.41!

14 view cover	Mick's Back (1996) more music like this by Mick Abrahams It's a funny thing about Mick Abrahams -- he and his one-time Jethro Tull bandmate Ian Anderson are both "trapped" in time warps, but of very differing kinds: Anderson in a folky art rock musical loop and Abrahams in a '60s-style electric blues cycle, with the echoes of Chess Records' roster and also Albert King et al. rippling through his work. ... see all copies from $5.67! new only from $9.07!

16 view cover	Folkfunk (2004) more music like this by Bobby Rush "Folk funk" is what Bobby Rush has been calling his brand of Southern-fried blues and soul for several years, and now it's the title for the second release on his own Deep Rush label, and guess what, folks, it is quite likely the best album he's ever done. Joined by Alvin Youngblood Hart on guitar and Charlie Jenkins on drums, with Rush handling ... see all copies from $10.34! new only from $10.34!
17 view cover	Steppin' Up (1987) more music like this by Hank Crawford and Jimmy McGriff Altoist Hank Crawford and organist Jimmy McGriff met up for a second time on this 1987 CD, and the results are predictably soulful and pleasing. With guitarist Jimmy Ponder and drummer Vance James completing the quartet and pianist Billy Preston (rarely heard in this type of setting) sitting in successfully on three of the seven numbers, this is a ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
18 view cover	Things I Gave Away (2000) more music like this by Mollie O'Brien O'Brien's brand of the country-blues weaves in strands of Cajun and bluegrass with a distinct pop influence. Equally eclectic is her choice of tunes by the likes of Lennon & McCartney, Abbey Lincoln, and Percy Mayfield. But as diverse as the elements may seem, it makes for a satisfying whole. At the center of it all is O'Brien's sweet, clear alto ... see all copies from $10.75! new only from $10.75!
19 view cover	Specialty Profiles (2006) more music like this by Percy Mayfield Percy Mayfield was blessed with an emotive Louisiana baritone and a poet's sensibility to sadness and pain, and few songwriters in the history of pop or R&B have written a body of work so drenched in beautiful suffering. This set features Mayfield's major hits for Art Rupe's Specialty Records, a label that Mayfield recorded for from 1950 until ... see all copies from $10.06! new only from $10.06!
20 view cover	A Thrill's a Thrill: The Canadian Years (1996) more music like this by Long John Baldry Two-CD set A Thrill's a Thrill - The Canadian Years distills the best from Baldry's seven Canadian releases, recorded between 1979 and 1993. I would have been happier with a complete career retrospective, but the highlights here hold up elegantly in their own right: "Baldry's Out," "It Still Ain't Easy," and a definitive covers of Tim Hardin's ... see all copies from $24.18! new only from $24.18!
21 view cover	How About Me (2006) more music like this by Ernie Andrews The irrepressible Ernie Andrews continues his late-career renaissance with How About Me. Produced by saxophonist Houston Person, Andrews fronts a quintet with Person, guitarist Terry Evans, pianist and arranger Phil Wright, Richard Simon on bass, and Frank Wilson on drums. The material ranges from all over the place, but most comes from the 1940s ... see all copies from $14.93! new only from $14.93!
22 view cover	Hymn for My Soul [Bonus Track] (2008) more music like this by Joe Cocker The very title of Joe Cocker's Hymn for My Soul suggests that this, his 2007 studio album, is a gospel affair, or at least something inspired by faith -- something that isn't true to the letter, yet there is something true about the spirit of this sentiment, for these are songs that serve as a tonic to Cocker's soul. He's pulled songs from several ... see all copies from $4.49! new only from $15.48!
23 view cover	Percy Mayfield Live (1992) more music like this by Percy Mayfield Although the first-ever release of live Mayfield material is culled from performances between 1981 and 1983, the twilight of the singer's blues career, he remains in fine, laidback voice throughout. The selections draw on all periods of his three decades as a songwriter, and include "Please Send Me Someone to Love," "The River's Invitation," and ... see all copies from $8.92! new only from $11.37!

25 view cover	Homemade Songs/Come See About Me (1996) more music like this by Tracy Nelson In 1996, Flying Fish released Homemade Songs/Come See About Me, which contained two complete albums -- Homemade Songs (1978) and Come See About Me (1980), both originally released on Flying Fish -- by Tracy Nelson on one compact disc.
